The nikkas basically the Prodigy of Harlem is what he’s saying. lol.
This is what we mean when we say influence and how the cultural forefathers gets whitewashed:
1. Virgil’s line was first called Pyrex.
2. Had to change the name.
3. One of Virgil’s first big clients was ASAP mob
4. ASAP Twelvy told him to change it to off-white (Pyrex…crack…off white)…
5. Twelvy says he got that from stacks bundles
6. We never would have know who Stacks is if not for Jim’s Byrd gang. Everybody talks about how Jim bit Stacks but the Byrd gang movement had all the juice and Jim put him on
The culture vultures would have you stop at #2. The real ‘influencers’ and forefathers get lost

Only thing i can say for sure
Cam was a better rapper when dipset came out than he was after it ended.They all were.
But Jim ended up making generally good tapes without dips. From diary of a sunmer to purple city, etc. ill take jims over cams past 15-20.
All the other stuff is whatever to me. And I think cam is a way better rapper. But jim has a good team and picks good tracks on his own and is better at it solo wise than cam is imo. Havent felt anything but a handful of cam songs since “i used to get it in ohio” / “hate my job”
In 2003/4 it was a no brainer. But today? Jim may be ahead when talking about the past 20 years.

He was on Desert Storm. Sinking ship. None of them mggas ever made it (w/ them). Budden, ransom, Paul Cain, Freck billionaire
Byrd gang, via dip set, had the juice

Jim jones is now openly dissing camron on wax so I wonder if camron is going to respond or just joke on his show.
He tries to tell you he still got it with these weekly freestyles on his program so I wonder what the excuse is gonna be if he ducks Jimmy

He’s not gonna put out a song imo. He already has the court of public opinion and the audience. He gonna probably laugh at the song and give it a couple seconds and by pass it

He’s just going to clown dude on his show. I don’t see Cam really taking this seriously enough to make new diss songs

What's going on? Last night I heard like 10 Dipset/Cam songs on Shade 45 
Whoo Kid and Scram Jones both played them. Had me thinking about Dip member passed away
Edit: Scram Jones was playing old songs, then would play a chopped up sample, and then would play the Dipset song. If anyone can find that let me know.

Jim Wouldn’t be shyt without cam, max b, stack bundles, etc. I guess that is a talent leaching off people.

Cam for sure. He put those others guys on even if they were more talented. And sustained a career after them also.
And even with cam,Jim coulda easy been freaky zeke and just been a skit and background guy.
