Jim Jones Fires Back At 50 Cent & Cam'ron Over Dipset Betrayal Story

Appearing on Justin Laboy’s Respectfully podcast, the Harlem rapper was asked about the pair’s recent interview where they discussed 50 (who was beefing with Cam at the time) bringing Jim out on stage at a New York City show in 2007, which his fellow Diplomat took as an act of betrayal.

Jones also took issue with Cam’ron saying that he was hoping to resolve Dipet’s problems before the concert, implying that he was to blame for the group disbanding.

“I seen the shit wasn’t going right so I started doing what Jim Jones needed to do for Jim Jones ’cause the n-gga that was supposed to be the don wasn’t taking care of the Capo. It started feeling like the Gotti movie, ya heard?”

“They called me like, ‘Yo, you wanna come out and perform at the show?’ [I replied,] ‘Shit yeah! I got the hottest record, I’m popping out.’ […] I wasn’t on nobody’s friendship. I was a pirate.”

The podcast also saw Jim Jones delve into his past issues with Cam’ron, who he claimed was trying to stifle his success, and criticize his longtime collaborator’s since-squashed beef with 50 Cent.

“When Cam called the station over the Koch shit, I felt that was childish,” he said, referring to Killa and 50’s infamous on-air argument on Hot 97 in early 2007. “You didn’t come outside when it’s time to really get active so how dare you do some weak shit like that.

“You started going crazy over Koch, over a white man that had been jerking us since we got signed there, and whatever backdoor deals you had with them served you more than it served me. So when that shit went on, I was like, ‘That was kinda weak, that was corny.'”

During their aforementioned interview, Cam’ron admitted that 50 Cent inviting Jim Jones to his NYC show was “smart” and “devious,” calling it “a checkmate moment” in their feud.

50, for his part, claimed that it was a shot in the dark — but one that was nevertheless designed to cause discord in Dipset.

Narrowing his eyes as if gauging somebody’s reaction, Fid continued: “You gotta watch and see how he responds. And then you see, ‘Aw shit, he really likes that!’ Tell him, ‘We want you at the show, Jim!’
