Jim Jones @ TBC: Talks New Album, Fall out w/ Cam, Wanting to Patch Things Up w/ Hov & Nas, More

[Jx2]

Jim needs cam BADLY for tour $. He had 1 hit with Ballin, ain't nobody paying him anything to go to his show. He wants a diplomats reunion so they can tour so he can ride Cams coattails cuz cam actually has a really good catalog and a long time fan base that'll pay $ to see him perform his classics.

Jim, if you were such a boss, why haven't you done anything in 10 years? Nobody checked for you...you were a hype man that Cam blew up. Your Harlem ego and jealousy wouldn't let Cam run shop like he should have. Jim was disloyal as hell for 5 mins of fame and now he's a decade deep being completely insignificant. Stupid move Jim.

Makes shyt said like this in the past even more hilarious in retrospect

Jim isn’t really considered a lyrically gifted M.C. How are you gonna change that?
Dash: If you come down and listen to his album [Pray IV Reign], and I’m not sure if I’m too close to the music or the project, but shyt sounds like a classic. I’m a make a bold statement and put it in the same league as Reasonable Doubt and The Chronic.


How's that statement holding up in 2016 breh?

Not now but back then. Jim was more relevant than Cam was at one time. Cam throws shots at Jay. Jay says little slick shyt. Jim throws shots at Jay. Jay does freestyle over Ballin.

Jim Jones' run in 06 was legendary. members of byrdgang, hustlers pome, the drama mixtape and even that christmas album was pure piff

 

[AMcV'88]

this was another good interview from Jim.

his attitude from the RapRadar one to this is comedy...especially towards Cam.
they gotta shoot the fair one. Cam clearly hasn't forgave him for some things, Jim has grievances...just get it out behind the scenes and keep it moving.

funny when he tries to get away from the tough talk and be mature but then the more it goes on you see him start to enjoy it and he goes full "capo".

surprising when he's talking about tensions between him and Cam when Jim became "big" on his own.
Cam used to say when Juelz and Jim become stars and millionaires then he know he's done his job.

The album is far from great but I fukk with it heavy.....Took it out to Harlem this month, and was on 125th and MLK playing this shyt, first time ever in Harlem.

'I don't think anyone really cares too much about Jim Jones retiring.....' that's some rare self awareness

 

[J-MIL]

Cam put Jim bum ass on. Nikka wouldn't even be rapping if it wasn't for Killa

He called Dame a bird too

 

[Cat piss martini]

Jay and Nas aint fukkin with that bum.

 

[Pyrexcup]

thought thread was about brixton jim jones

 

[re'up]

Dude is hilarious, Jones has no poker face or media training (left, maybe) like some of the newer guys, you see those looks of contempt and disgust wash over his face when he remembers or acknowledges an event or person lol

'Get Cam up here ask him some serious questions.......see if he do a...Eddie Murphy routine....deflect...'

(On Tru Life and jail sentence) 'Yeah, he went through a lot...I don't care about that...' lol that one reminds me of me.....no love for the enemy.

'My pettiness is DEEP'

Said Asap Yams used to hide under the table and get tied up

'I coulda been devoured them......wasn't the place to exercise authority....in a club per se....in South Beach...in a restaraunt while you eating with ya bitc---'

I'm with him, fukk French.

harsh realities

 

[Deltron]

Petty Wap w/o the braids

 

[edzyy]

Said he wants the fair one with French AND Zach

 

[wizworld]

So we're all well aware of all the opportunities he's blown, or situations that didn't go his way where he missed out on something big.

What can he do at this point? As much as I criticize him, I think he's intelligent, hard working, and he's cool enough to still command the spotlight with the right platform.

What should he be doing?


Should he stick with the music, and hope for a hit?

Put all his energy into looking for new talent?

Try to get back on reality TV?

Read some movie scripts?

A Youtube Webseries?

Revamp the clothing line?

Keep pressing Cam in hopes to get the reunion tour popping?



For those of you who DON'T hate dude, where do y'all think he fits in?

 

[thernbroom]

how is this thread doing pages , this nikka been running around telling the same story for the last two years, nobody gives a fukk about a diplomats album in 2016

I fukks wit jim, but he has a huge ego..he wouldnt even let mel murda get a lil shine
Mind you we all know murda way too hood, but he scared to let murda even drop a mixtape..jim dont want anyone outshining him..
Vamp life is going nowhere...

He needs to do what cam do and open up a spot and not put his name on it...

I dont see a major giving jim a push so thats out the question..

Jim biggest problem is his ego and his lack of people skills...
Thats why byrdgang went nowhere and thats why cam can pretty much play him like a puppet..
He knows jim self destructs and eventually makes that phone call..

Whats crazy is i liked more jim jones music in the past few years than i have of cam..

 

[Kal-El]

Damn..whole interview about Cam. Why won't Jim acknowledge that he played a major role in fukkin up the Diplomats when he teamed up with 50 and let his man hangin?

Why won't Jim acknowledge that he played Cam with the phonecall incident?

Why won't Jim acknowledge that he brought beef to Cam's door step. Beef that aint had nothing to do with Cam?

Why won't Jim admit that he a bum ass nikka?

Why won't Jim admit that Chrissy touched it in Miami?
