During a video interview with HoodFiles.com earlier this month Cam’ron upset fans when he declared that the Dipset movement “is over.”
Diplomats Capo Jim Jones took to the airwaves yesterday (November 23) to react to Killa’s statements. “There aint no one person that can say Dipset is over,” he told radio personality Angela Yee on her Shade 45 show Lip Service. “People just been doin’ a lot of YouTubing and trying to get themselves hot. When you can’t get on the radio I guess YouTube is the next best thing to get on,” he said laughing.
In the April 2009 issue of XXL magazine Cam confirmed that he owned a majority percentage of the Diplomats. When asked if Jones was upset over the situation, the Harlem rapper got animated.
“I am Dipset,” he replied. “Whoever don’t like it come holla at me. I been Dipset. It started in the projects and ain’t nobody got me out of Apt. 5H but myself…and this is not a publicity stunt. I don’t go around sitting in shopping carts,” he continued, referring to Cam hopping in a cart at the end of the hoodfiles interview, ”I go around getting money. If there’s a problem; there’s a thin line between love and hate. “
As of press time Cam has yet to respond. —Elan Mancini

i believe cam to be right in this situation.
but as true friends, you always forgive. that’s the measure of true friendship.
if it was me and my nigga… we woulda just fought it out.. let the fists fly, no stompin allowed. then put something in the air, shots of whiskey, and leave the past in the past.
but these niggas on that big ego shit.

a nigga get a couple of wack ass singles and he don’t know how to act. seriously, who the fuck knew who jim jones was before “we fly high” came out? i had to go back and watch the “oh boy” video to see that nigga two-stepping in the background. “ain’t nobody got me out of Apt. 5H but myself…” yeah nigga, you got out of apt. 5h, but where did you go until you became cam’ron’s weed carrier? let this be a message to all you niggas out there, never let your weed carriers think that they have any potential beyond carrying weed, because then they’ll try and take shit over. talking about he don’t go around sitting in shopping carts, that homeless looking motherfucker probably pushes them shits around. he looks like them niggas that be sitting on the ground at times square with signs around their neck saying “will rap for food”. man, fuck jim jones.

That must’ve been when you started listening to Cam. Big L put Cam on (and Ma$e) and Biggie cosigned for a reason, listen to his verse on 8 iz enuff (my 1st time hearing Cam)”my crew from from the east leavin at least 20 police deceased so make tracks, i break backs I jack with def gats, and black macs” So I understand first impressions. Now the goonie talk and anti hygiene stance thing Jim Jones workin with is not a good look, and he needs to give credit where is due.

Don’t knock the one who put you on, you wouldn’t be where you are if Cam didn’t look out for you in the beginning..He just wants some limelight, all your songs sound the same and you talk about the same things.

I think it’s funny how everyone is jumping on Cam’s dick. This friendship has been over since that bitch ass Cam went runnin’ off the basketball court leaving his childhood pal to catch a beatdown that was intended for him. Hate Jim if you want but he took that beating like a man. Cam is by far the biggest bitch in the business. He even got punched in his eye & hid out for a couple of weeks. Dipset moved on without him. Cam should do the same.

After hopping on stage with 50, I wouldn’t be saying shit about no dipset. Niggas can say what they want, Cam ran at Rucker, he played them out money blah blah blah, there wouldn’t be no Jim Jones if it wasn’t for Cam’ron. Period.

No matter what happens in a team that may be wrong, switching teams is never the move. Go make your own new team, but don’t cross over to the enemy. You can’t recover from that. At the end of the day traitors may get paid while they are useful but are not respected at all, by anyone.
Good luck with the music though.

This is another one of those pointless beefs in hip hop where both parties are suffering when they could really help each other out. Jim Jones is nothing without Cam and vice versa, although Cam has a better chance of doing something on his own moreso than JJ. Cam’s a better talent.

I always liked Cam ever since Confessions of Fire [Which I still play to this day] but I haven’t heard anything special from him since Purple Haze. The rift between him and Jim seems to one of those cases when one guy is getting all the attention and his right hand man wants to be him. Jim is cool and Juelz is alright but they and Cam don’t seem to be able to produce a decent product without one another. Crime Pays was disappointing and so was Pray IV Reign. What they need to do is but their differences aside and make some money and find some producers to help them make some heat. They may have not been the strongest faction in Hip Hop but they were always entertaining. When the money starts drying up don’t be surprised if they pull it together… let’s just hope that happens before no one gives a damn anymore.

Jim Jones and Cam were running a label. Egos got in the way. Cam does have ownership though so Jim can’t go around saying he is Dipset. Dipset was Hell Rell, 40 Cal, Duke the God, Juelz, Cam, Jim Jones, JR Writer, etc. It wasn’t just one person.
