50 Cent has responded to Jim Jones regarding remarks he made about their contentious performance together in 2007.
The Dipset rapper talked about the notorious incident earlier this week during an interview with Justin Laboy, while also throwing shade at both 50 and Cam, who had earlier revisited the event on Cam’s Talk With Flee YouTube program.
The G-Unit leader replied on Wednesday (January 8), ridiculing Jones by sharing a selfie with JAY-Z, Diddy, Fat Joe, and Remy Ma from the 2017 Roc Nation brunch, with Capo evidently excluded from the group.
He additionally unearthed the Harlem native’s participation in 6ix9ine’s racketeering trial, revealing a court transcript of a wiretapped conversation between the Diplomat (identified as Individual-1) and Jamel “Mel Murda” Jones, who was a co-defendant with 6ix9ine.
In the transcript, Jim Jones — identified by 6ix9ine as part of the Nine Trey Gangster Bloods — urges the “Gummo” creator to “get violated” and asserts “he ain’t a gang member anymore.”
50 captioned his post: “LOL [grinning face emoji] INDIVIDUAL 1 is in charge here, I know you’re busy so please don’t hit me with any gangster talk INDIVIDUAL 1!”
While appearing on Justin Laboy’s Respectfully podcast, Jim Jones expressed his discontent regarding 50 Cent and Cam’ron’s recounting of his performance alongside the G-Unit leader.
Following the viewing of a short segment from their discussion, Capo remarked: “Those guys are all over me.” Those guys don’t have anything else on their minds except Capo. I did a great deal for those individuals in their lives, you know? “Each one of them.”
He also justified his choice to join 50 on stage at the New York City event, which generated buzz due to Killa Cam’s conflict with Fif back then, along with Dipset’s own internal problems.
“I caught what [50] mentioned, ‘Koch was a graveyard’ and all that nonsense,” he remarked, referring to 50’s well-known dispute with Cam on Hot 97. “I didn’t care about any of that.”
“They reached out to me saying, ‘Hey, do you want to come and perform at the event?’” I responded, “Absolutely!” I have the most popular track, I’m making waves. […] I wasn’t a part of anyone’s circle. “I used to be a pirate.”
The “We Fly High” hitmaker then quipped: “Those guys [in G-Unit] couldn’t even dress, but he provided a stage for me to perform before thousands in New York. “Sure, I’m going to choose that.”
