Not really, but how's that for twisting a headline? How irresponsible of me! No seriously, that's irresponsible.
In next month's Complex Magazine, the ever engaging Jim Jones has the cover story, and it's a must read, due to the its sheer ridiculousness. He and his latest BFF Dame Dash use every opportunity possible to take shots at Kanye West and Jay-Z. They go as far as to imply that Kanye and Jay-Z actually hate eachother, and that Jay didn't want to give Kanye a chain on his now infamous (thanks to the "Through the Wire" video) "Chaining Day". He also claims the beat for "H to the Izzo" was promised to Cam'Ron for Come Home With Me, and that they didn't know Jay had swiped it until watching the 2001 BET Awards (I remember watching that! Jay brought Snoop, Nelly and all their respective crews on stage for the celebration of his new single)
Capo states:
More...
"Kanye came to our studio session at Sony, and he was playing some beats back when we were all signed to Rocafella. Cam was about to come out with Come Home With Me, so we told Kanye we wanted to buy the song “H to the Izzo.” It was an understanding we had between us and Kanye because we were all under the same label. So then, I’ll never forget it, we’re at Cam’s house and this hip-hop award show comes on [BET Awards, 2001], and Cam and I are watching it on his couch, and we’re like, “Next year we’re gonna be up there.” So they announce that Jay-Z is about to perform his new single off The Blueprint, and the dude comes out with the “H to the Izzo” beat. Cam and I look at each other like, Oh, we’re going to kill Kanye. Oh my God, when we catch this n****,we’re going to do something terrible to him. And that’s how Cam ended up getting the “Down and Out” beat. Kanye gave it to him free of charge as payback."
And later Damon D-dash chimes in:
"This was before that. He was already in full hate by that time. [Laughs.] This n**** [Kanye] was like, “Wow, he ain’t going to give me the chain.” I had to take off my chain and give it to him, and I was heated. I had the real canary diamonds. That shit cost $40,000! I told Kanye, “Yo, you got to give that back when we get off this stage!”
It's an interesting read, but such a publicity stunt. Of course they were waiting on Kanye to be on top of the world before going after him. I mean, I bet Dame, Cam and Jimmy never thought the "beatmakers" star would eclipse their own. I guess they have to find a well to send Pray IV Reign, right?

i fuck wit dip set hard, but fam is really starting to feel himself a bit too much....Jim used to be the funny guy an 3rd wheel of tha dips still is too me...and without MAx B. his lastest material sucks ass....he stole Stack Bundles Swag & Max B hooks...for a nigga to talk about Jay & kanye the way he does..it jus looks lame...then he turns around bumpin to "SWAGGA LIKE US" and dressin weird & rocin Louis Vutton hard ass hell...i think he's a undercover STAN.....
^^^
Cosign on undercover stan!
Jim likes to allign himself around real niggas but that don't make him one himself. I expect this lame shit out of him but I can't believe Dame is resorting to this stuff. They makin themselves look real bad and its noones faults but there own.
And honetly.....that jacket looks similar to Kanyes jacket in the new promo pics.
Jim Jones: "I can rock this jacket better thatn you, Kanye!"
Yea.....that'll show him. LOL
SMH
Actually they are telling the truth about the beat ask NO ID!! This was when everyone thought Kanye was a st8 lame that made beats!!! Well he still is but his a RICH Lame!! lol Thats why Kanye so lonely he knows everyone around him was/is talking bout him from his so call friends in NY to CHI!!
^^Cuz they know the TRUTH^^
I swear, we only hear/see the music the suits want us to hear/see. They pushed this nigga....and he pushed himself...so now he's on. More power to him. He id what he was SUPPOSED to do to realize his dream. Truthfully though, from what I get from poeople taht knew dude prior to the fame and from the 3 times I remember from meeting dude before the fame, he's not the coolest nigga in the world. My boys that acutally KNEW him say seing him blow up is like revenge of the nerds. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Makes me feel good though.....we all got a lil nerd in us.Plus, them niggas is my boys and all but they rap careers ain't exactly take off. So take they criticism for what its worth.
Kanye might be hated but with his ego he seems to feed off of it...and make music 100 times better than who hates on him. Jim Jones is a fag and a disloyal snake...all he had was ballin...and went gold with that...tsk tsk
Dudes is wasting their breath. Do they have no idea that Kanye is more or less untouchable at this point? They can say whatever they want, Kanye's gonna hold that number one spot until he decides he don't want it anymore. I mean, who REALLY gives a fuck about Lil Yimmy Yones and D-d-d-ddamom Dash anymore?
Seriously -- nobody worth a damn gives a fuck about these dudes anymore (if that makes sense).
PLAYED OUT!! Go back to the Double A ball, people.
LAME
Jim Jones jus took a big L in my book....Dame dash broke ass should jus sit down sum where an be cool.....They should work on gettin the DIPS BACK TOgether....instead of hatin on Ye....
Jim's a Sucka. Next Question?
But hey he's fulfilling his lifetime role of being a hypeman, go get 'em sidekick
we need to let max b in to expose this clown
*Looks at jim jones' hands and says Headline in diabolical voice*
"We're Going To Kill Kanye"
*Followed By Who Who Who Ha HA ha HA Dr. evil Villain Laugher*
Andrew you're a Funny Guy
(Funny how? what do you mean funny? wtf is so funny about me? ... you know you're... just funny)
ROFLMAO @ "Go get em sidekick"!!!!!!!!!
Makes me think of a superhero movie with a dog as a sidekick
@ Pro....Jimmy looked so diabolical (No Biz Markie) in that pic I just had to use that headline. Yes, I know I'm taking it out of context, but you read it, right?
Did you read the aritcle? Jimmy said that he'd be compared to God if this album goes platinum. What?
BTW, peep the latest blog rankings:
http://hiphopblips.dailyradar.com/blogs/
when is this nigga gonna shave
i was about to say oh shit... well yea OH SHIT
but then i digress after seeing the point differential between kanye's blog and then rest
now how "concrete" is this ?
or rather how much weight does this site hold?
@ Pro
yeah, that's why I'm not putting it at the top of the page or anything like that. I contacted the people that run the site and they said it's all based on backlinks and ratings, and not so much traffic (obviously)
But whatever. I'd be happy if any has me ranked somwhere regardless of the validity - and that includes uglypeople.com
Kanye? I’d love to work with him. I need a beat from him. I think that’s why I’m most mad. Matter fact, I’ma fuck you up if you don’t give me a beat! [Laughs.]
ROFLMAO!!!!
comedy at its best
Jim Jones is a character and plays one in this entertainment game. Why u chicago dudes wanna concentrate on keeping it real with lyrics, struggle, and all other types of rational/ideology this dude is a media whore and knows how to entertain. is he a hot emcee, NOPE, but its all about marketing and branding right now! And if you read the column he says shit for publicity. hell it would not surprise if they are all cool with each other. the business is entertainment not music. catch up to 21st century.
the business is entertainment not music. catch up to 21st century.
NO SHIT SHERLOK??? =/
ya think?
nevermind
matter o fact... you late homie....
thats what i meant to say
but then again being late is a chicago trait...
don't worry im here to speed the thought process up
^^^^^^^^^^see that is why you have people always going at you. your sarcsm reflects your mentality. you stay on some imbecile shit all the time. i mean its one thing to comment but two dedicated two posts to my initial post. you like the will ferrell character in austin powers who won't die. talking " i broke my leg and it hurts very bad can you please help me"? or im burned very badly but if you reach down and give me rope or call a doctor to help me". that is you all the way. your swag owes my swag an apology!
a another man talkin bout another man's swag in very HOMO....then to say "your swag owes my swag an apology!" is very Boy George....
who the fuck still uses the word swag?????
21st century c'mon now people that word has a bullet in its head funeral services have passed and all.
i'm just sayin'
oh and i guess you wouldve rather me just deleted my post huh? seeing that there is no EDIT button i just did another ... now swag on deez nigga
once again prolyfic aka "jackie Moon" speaks. go get a bud light and suck one. go work on your snare game, fam!
THIS GOOFY ASS NIGGA IS EXTRA EXTRA HUFF. EVERY INTERVIEW HE GOT JAY-Z'S DICK IN HIS MOUTH(NO HOMO). CORNBALL ASS NIGGA! WHERE'S CAM WHEN YOU NEED HIM LOL?
once again prolyfic aka "jackie Moon" speaks. go get a bud light and suck one. go work on your snare game, fam!
Lmao You sure did "Treat me" with that snare line whoooeeeww yippie boy!!
yes sir ree!!
Ok Guy ... How was that?
oh i forgot
"SWAG"
Puttin' in too many words about another man's swag is gay!!! Thats very similiar to sayin' that a nigga is cute. The swag word if not about yourself=GAY AS FUCK!!! Kanye need to get a lil' gangsta on Jim Jones ol' loudmouth ass. Ye' need to really realize that he a Chicago nigga. Jim Jones wouldn't pull that shit with LEP, JoJo Capone, or Goon Squad. That nigga picked his lil' battle. Rumor has it that that nigga got his chained snatched here a few years ago, hmmm....
Jim be wilin out on both these niggas all the time....but then ask Ye for beats AND he BEEN jackin Jay lines, concepts, all that shit....YOU OWE JAY NIGGA....how u gon hate on a man but reference him in damn near er verse.....
at least when cam was beefin wit jay he wasnt swingin from his nuts at the same time....hahaha ....this nigga jimmy is the ONLY nigga that does that... funny....
cant we all just get along?
I kinda believe Dame Dash though...
....and you proud of that charlie breeze that somebody got they chained snatched in the city? how does that make us look.
"Jim Jones wouldn't pull that shit with LEP, JoJo Capone, or Goon Squad."
And why would he?? They are not even on his radar!!!LEP, Goon Squad and JoJo have absolutely no weight in the rap game, maybe in the streets, but not rap. LMAO at dumb Chicago niggas who take rap seriously and cant differentiate between entertainment and real life. Chicago niggas are still naiive as hell!!
If Jim Jones dissed LEP nobody would give a fuck...because the general public has no clue who LEP is, and same with JoJo and Goon Squad. He usually guns for niggas in top spots, like Jay or Ye. Duh!!!Its a smart move. New York niggas play chess; Chicago niggas play checkers....chew on that!!Thats why niggas out here do dumb shit like murder J Huds family for no reason....fuckin checker champs!!!!
"....and you proud of that charlie breeze that somebody got they chained snatched in the city? how does that make us look."
Charlie Breeze is a fuckin typical Chicago moron with a Dinosaur brain. He is the reason I will never raise my kids in this shit hole of a city.
Prolyfic said...
but then again being late is a chicago trait...
^ Aint that the truth. Niggas at the crib talk about this so-called "hipster" movement we got. But other cities laugh at us when it come to fashion. Besides Ye and Lupe the cities where the whole culture started look at us as posers. Niggas stopped rocking colorful tees and Nike SBs 5 years ago.
But back to the subject at hand, Dame needs to focus on keeping his cribs from getting foreclosed rather than throwing dirt on niggas names. And SMH @ him think Jenny Jones is gone help him get back in the game. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!
....uuuh, so is 'slu' even a hott song if the word "swag" is soo "outdated"??? i mean it was just released a cupl months ago...:/...jus curious.
Rap as a whole is corny PERIOD...hip-hop is a total joke!!The south makes music for slow retards amd New York rap is at an all time low...Chicago's rap scene is trash. THe only thing exciting this year was Wale's "Mixtape About Nothing" FAke SHore Drive posts total bullshit everyday....I cant even listen to 90% of this shit without feeling stupider. I remember wheb rap was for the intellectuals back in the day and the average thinking kids listened to house and r&b, now the average and slow kids have taken over rap...and the artform pretty much services the lowest common denominator in society...which makes for garbage music. Im ashamed to even admit being a rap fan these days.
there goes this so intellectual guy explaining his shit eating view on what they think rap is or isnt im glad your so smart this is what you fucks needed and thats be able to voice your faggot ass opinions about people you dont know any how you gay chi city kiddie i know wale and he dont rap about shit no substance just like i thought another tight close wearing gay as loving everybody else except chicago dick sucker with low self esteem want to be excepted faggot get some q-billa or koolkids or l.e.p or mickey in your dick sucking mouth for a change and i know you are a dork
I suck huge cocks for a living!
Fake Shore Drive comments section = best on the internet. You people crack me the fuck up. Pro, dude, you damn near had me in tears. Hilarious.
Real talk, btw.
I am here to challenge that dumb FUCK Chi Kiddy Cocktail to a game of Jeopardy.
If he's so SMART, why can't he spell or form sentences correctly?
Can you buy a vowel? No, you dumb motherfucker can you buy an English lesson?
how does a blog about a rapper not from our city lead to an argument about our city
niggas need to pay attention and attempt to understand
its them against us and
us against us
so how the fuck we ever gonna win
all u so called men need to act like it and get that bitch ass nigga out yo system
its alot of starving artist and salty has beens
on this entire site
put 2 and 2 together
Jim Jones is the same nigga that said Nas is irrelevant. Dame Dash is the same nigga that said Jimmy's new shit is on the level of Reasonable Doubt and Chronic...nuff said
wait, who is jim jones?
is nas relevant when he talks about hiphop is dead the rap positive,then he back with a knew song g make the world go round either he will rap positive which is good but dont flip flop so just my opinion he is a hypocrite if he matured and moved on thats fine people grow in there music but dont send mixed message because he said in one song he tired of rappers talking about drugs jewelry and cars now he back on it so he is not relevant.
there is a saying:
"love them or hate them, its still an obsession"
every single time i hear jim jones' or dame's name it has something to do with jay or kanye. maybe they should do something of their own to get media attention. and that does not include looking like a fucking homo while disrespecting kid cudi's day 'n night beat with your terrible lyrics
"Fake Shore Drive comments section = best on the internet."
FSD is seriously the ghetto of the internet!!This is the lowest of the low. I challenge anyone to find a site on the ENTIRE net that has a combined lower IQ than FSD. I am seriously convinced that this place is the bottom of the bottom. Chicago is a city made up of mostly housing projects and pretty much 90% of the black people can trace their roots back to the projects if it wasnt their parents, it was their grandparents or great grandparents. But the project/nigger mentality still gets passed on to the next generation even when people move to different communities (including the burbs)the mindstate is prevalent in 90% of the black people in this city and if you understand or are familiar with the project mentality then you can understand why the people in this city act the way they do. Fuckin crab in the barrel syndrome, scarcity mentality, self hatred, self destructive behavior, rejection of new information, self pity, etc. Thats Chicago and that in turn is Fake Shore Drive!!!Niggas in this city are clueless to anything outside of their block but yet they have the "swag" of a Harvard graduate. Thats a dangerous combination an overconfident dummy<-----that right their is the definition of a Chicago nigga!
Signing off!!!And if you have "love" for this city then you are as stupid and naiive as the little girl who still loves the uncle who molested her as a child. YOu niggas need help!!
wow! Nas is not relevant? Did you even hear Ni...i mean Untitled? Nas is one of the best MCs of all time, explain to me how he's irrelevant. Is he really back on drugs and cars and shit? I didn't hear mention of those things (in a positive light) ONCE on his last effort. Come on fam...don't come on a hip hop blog and say that Nas is irrelevant.
"don't come on a hip hop blog and say that Nas is irrelevant."
Overconfident Dummies!!!
Enough said
Nas will always be relevent!!
and to top it all off he dressed EXACTLY like Kanye West....just noticed that
Chi City Kiddie-you're a fag nigga! Wale "Mixtape About Nothing"??? Get your dickriding ass outta here nigga-he's wack as hell and only gets a cosign cuz some other nigga said so. You cant listen to 90% of this shit without feeling "stupider?" If i can go back to 3rd grade, "stupider" isn't a word! We dont need you to be a rap fan-go and learn a lesson you "stupider" motherfucker! And if fakeshore is so wack, why are u posting fool?? And Nas is irrelevant?? Get a life brother! HIP HOP WANTS U OUT LOSER!!!
Chi City Kiddie
You sound dumb as hell with your analysis of Chicago. The f*&^ing first black president came here to sit at the feet of where the epicenter of Black America is located. That same blood line pumps through the veins of this entire city including our contributions to salvaging what is left of the art form called hip-hop. So much dope shit musically is in Chicago right now. Take your self hating ass outta here. We are not buying it. You are a plant like the black agents that assassinated Detroit Red, but couldn't kill Malcom X.

We bang on Vics like you without violence. Print this out and hang this up on your Dell lap top so you don't get spanked out here mistaking us for sweet.
^^^^^^^At this point this is where the topic ends!!!!!
And how can a grown ass man call himself kiddie?????
Yo, Chi City Kiddie, I was just speaking on the humreous aspect of the shit I read. I just moved to the Chi, man, I can't speak a word on nothing you just said.
All I know is I read shit in here that just cracks me up, that's it. Didn't mean to spark any (more) controversy.
Why are so many black Chicago people proud of this city??? The city treats black people like 3rd class citizens!!!LMAO but yet you defend it like its so fuckin great!!!LMAO!!Black men have such a low employment rate that its scary in Chicago. Ignorance is accepted as a way of life. Black people get absolutely NO RESPECT in Chicago. I realized that after going to New York where blacks are treated completely different. Chicago breeds NIGGAS and slave minded people. But yet you love this place so much.
My thing is this I appreciate the world as a whole. Only small minded people get caught up in one geographic area. That is why so many people never leave this place because they are small minded. I dont fall in love easy, Im a realest and not some emotional idiot in love with a city that treats its people like complete shit! That list you name is garbage in comparison to the greatness of New York City so stuff it up your asshole. I dont get caught up in defending shit for dumb ass reasons. I mean half the shit on your list is bullshit....Harold's Chicken? Dont make me laugh they have been selling that bullshit poison for years getting away with contributing to heart disease and fat women for years. Ribs and Bibs hahahahahahaha ghetto shit!!!
jim jones is a fuckin goofy.
Chi City you sound stupid as hell... That list is full of incredible individuals that have accomplished. Black or not. How can a city treat people a certain way? You are giving a city human traits now? "The greatness" of New York City... New York City is great.. as is LA, New Orleans, Atlanta and places where human culture is respected. BTW New York city has an unemployment rate of 50 % for Black men http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=950CE1D81E3CF93BA15751C0A9629C8B63
You have a Euro centric view of greatness. In other cultures greatness can exist in various places simultaneously. Because Chicago is great does not mean NY, Paris and Johannesburg are not great cities. Chicago is great in and of itself, as are the above places. Stevie Wonder can still be considered great even though every song on his last CD " A Time To Love" may not be considered great. (Title is kinda ironic for you Chi Kiddie you could really stand to do more loving)
You're pass port might not have enough stamps nor does your mind have the capacity to grasp the breth of this concept, but it's OK. Since Black HIstory month is a ways away here is something to chew on: The beauty of black people (Black Americans) and the reason we are honored everywhere is because we have taken some of the worst cards that a person could be dealt and re-wrote the game. Along with the good some not so healthy traditions have come along with, fried chicken for example. (I'm sure you know the story of how slaves had to make due with the scraps and did not have the healthiest food choices etc.) Alongside of strong proud black people have been wonderful people of all colors and backgrounds.
I pray that what ever spirit of negativity that is within you is healed. Angriness and bitterness are weak emotions that won't serve you well in life.
This is it for me. I was taught don't speak to fools for they scorn the wisdom of your words and that the most dangerous man is a man that knows he does not know but acts as if he does.
Good Luck Good Speed,
The City Of Chicago
Got to agree a lot with the 1st post! I used to like Jim but now I don't really like him anymore cause he to disloyal & shit not to mention he got to full of himself & Dame should be worrying about trying to get his money straight instead of fucking with Jim's wack ass! Not to mention he loses for even trying to compare Jim's new album to Reasonable Doubt & Ready To Die or whatever else albums he did & saying it's a classic! Jimmy will never come close to making a classic! Cam need to set these niggas straight though! And for those of you who didn't know Jim was a fan of Jay & Nas growing up as he has claimed in a couple of interviews & I'm sure he still is a fan of there's & bumps there shit but does it on the dl while trying to diss them!
And Andrew did you hear the new Swagger From Us Jim just released today that he was talking about that is supposed to be his SLU version I think he may have unauthorizedly taking the freestyle Twista did over the SLU beat & added it to the song without Twista's approval?!
@ Nello...
I was thinking the exact same thing...
You work with Twista, right? Let's check in with him and see.
jimmy jones speak the truf... hahhaha !!!
I cannot believe somebody put ribs n bibs and farrakhan in the same sentence? that is blasphemous. then another dude said jim is goofy but when you see said dude he dresses just like jim, so who is the goofy?
"I cannot believe somebody put ribs n bibs and farrakhan in the same sentence?"
Tell me about it. I thought I was the only one who seen this ridiculousness. This guy should smack the shit out of himself. What is it about Chicagoans that they are overly proud this place, LMAO! So much that they are blinded by how detrimental it is. Kinda reminds me of the woman who never leaves the abusive husband. What a shame. As long as you feed these niggas Rib and Bibs at the African Fest they are happy. All the while the North side (the REAL Chicago) continues to blackball niggas by keeping the cost of housing out of reach to any one making less than 40,000 a year and a credit score under 650. Basically forcin niggas to live in the southside or the westside, or the new hot spot the south suburbs. But this city is so great, right? I guess if you feed someone Ramen noodles all of their life they wont care that their is steak being served in the same kitchen...they are too busy being in love with the Ramen noodles.
And by the way the hood is not cool...I repeat the hood is not cool and has NEVER been cool!!! There is nothing great about being from the hood...GET OUT!!!
HOOD RICH!
Yo Andrew I talked to Mello about it & he said Rawle (Twista's manager) chopped it up with Jimmy about it already so it's cool & all good!
