50 Cent Responds To Jim Jones’ Claims That Dipset “Started The Mixtape Movement" | "He's Lying 🤣🤣🤣

[Chip Skylark]

Cap. Way of Life was a hit.

Lies and revisionist history going on in here.

That shyt barely got any radio play… what did it chart? Did it even go gold? It’s been well known and Wayne said it himself 500 Degreez flopped and it sent him into depression which is one reason why he stop writing and starting freestyling all of his shyt

This is what I remember.. This restarted the rise of Wayne.. The mixtape cuts not gonna get raido play.. 50 and wayne was "jacking for beats" Taking tracks and making them their own.. Those wayne mixtapes started a build.. I dont know about anywhere else around country but south florida was fukking with wayne heavy.. I dont know the order but 50, wayne, dipset definitely started a different wave.. If I had to pick I would say 50 was first..

He’s right, which is why Wayne went back to the drawing board.

Wayne reinvented himself with the sqad mixtapes, and gained momentum going into the carter.

That cash money era of tq, boo & gotti, gillie, etc was awful

 

[Smokin Rider]

You clearly don’t remember 2002 to say Wayne was irrelevant. Particularly when compared to G Unit before GRODT.

Thats just an old man who stay on Wayne dikk. You mention the name Wayne and homie appears like batman

 

[Michael's Black Son]

Clue
Kay Slay
S&S
DJ Doggtime
and Flex’s shows were mixtape worthy
- they did this shyt first and better



50/Dipset simply did it during the bootleg CD and hood DVD era and it worked for them.

 

[Complexion]

As a solo artist/group flooding the streets without a DJ on a compilation tape then did it first in 97 with that Makaveli run.

But they did pioneer the whole taking a beat and redoing a song for the streets thing.

Good times.

Wayne career was on life support..

He started changing his style in the shine video when he had on the foamposites..
That's when them Chicago nikkas were signed...mikkey/boo and gotti

The 500 degreez thing was a continued change along with stunna signing gillie...

Cash Money started looking looking dipset way in 2002....

Then mixed the chicago/philly/ny gumbo together

Involving a southern artist in the rise of mixtape is wrong on a cultural level..

Just as an east coast nikka being involved in a conversation about selling cds out the trunk...

Even DJ Drama is from Philly...

Why Jim Jones tryna look like Max B now

 

[MIC Que]

DJ's came first, they're talking about artists/groups with their own mixtapes. Which ironically enough was still helped put out by DJ's.

Dipset had DJ Kay Slay
G-Unit had DJ Whoo Kid
Lil Wayne and Tha Sqad had DJ Raj Smoove

Even though Lil Wayne came months later you can throw him in there too because he dropped at the tail end of 2002

All 3 back were against the ropes and used the DJ’s mixtape game to bounce back.

50 being blackballed with the Murder Inc situation
Cam getting jerked by Sony and having to reinvent himself and introduce Dipset to the world
Wayne had to reinvent himself and find his way after dropping 2 lackluster albums and being the only Hot Boy left

 

[EastsideRio]

@ Wayne being relevant in 02. The nikka album flopped. Nobody took him serious as a rapper yet.

Wayne was that Nikka in 2002, so was Lil Zane, Lil Bow Wow and Sammie. Why you think they had the group for the Hardball soundtrack.

The got the top 4 artists kids listen to and made them a single for the movie soundtrack. Y’all keep talking sales, when kids don’t buy records.



I was a kid back then, how you gone tell me what was poppin amongst us when I was there and lived it?

 

[letti cook]

As a Texas nikka im just laughing at all them nikkas

Exactly....like, I know to the world, nikkas like Chamillionaire, Paul Wall, Mike Jones, Slim Thug, Flip etc. was some one or two hit wonder nikkas or whatever

but the reason they got on in the first place was mixtape shyt they were doing from 98-99.

50 talking about he started the mixtape structure of redoing the hook on mainstream songs and im sitting here listening to Chamillionaire redo "Busta What It Is" ,"Where The Party", "Peaches in Cream", "Sorry Ms Jackson", all etcs with the

but.... nikkas dont know , show, or care

Nobody denying it. The argument Is who made it mainstream or popular. And it was 50 who received an international buzz with mixtapes first. Nobody denying there was nikkas doing it first. But 50 perfected it to the point he got a buzz that enabled him to eventually go diamond and left a blueprint nikkas tried to follow, no?

i know all that, 50 was monumental

im just saying its frustrating knowing that nikkas down here been on that way before and get no credit

if you not from here, how would you know we had a crazy mixtape circuit?...i get it

[Jefferson Jackson]

I get what ya saying breh. Those nikkas and regions deserve they flowers too. I just see it different to what 50 and Jones saying. They arguing who took it and made it so white kids buying it, not just region locked ish.
