Jim Jones Reveals The Bracelet He Gifted Drake Was Worth $50K

Even though the entire Hip Hop world watched Dipset capo Jim Jones throw a grown man down an escalator by his pants, neither he or his two assailants will be charged with a crime in his Miami airport meleé and the police are confirming Jim’s version of the events that unfolded.

TMZ unveiled the footage last week of Jones getting jumped inside of the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport and ended with one of his assailants headed to the hospital with a bloody dome piece. According to the police report, Jones told officers the fight started on the plane when he stood up to collect his belongings from the first class overhead compartment as the plane landed, but before it came to a complete stop. He alleges that prompted passenger James Dos Santos to confront him and push him in the chest. Jim says he grabbed Dos Santos’ arm, gave him a warning and Dos Santos quickly apologized for the rift.

Jim told cops another passenger, Alexander Lekht, also got involved by screaming at him from a different seat. Deputies were apparently called to the gate, but Jim declined to report the incident and headed to baggage claim. The altercation became physical at the escalator as the report confirms that Lekht made a “second jerk motion” at Jim, causing the “Ballin” to hold and detain Lekht until authorities could get to the scene.All of this happened after what was seen in the viral video, which is Jones tossing Lekht down the escalator.

After that, both men could be seen on the video punching Jones, further solidifying Jones’ version of the fight. Jim took to social media in Miami showing that the short airport altercation didn’t stop his flow in the 305.

Jones said he yanked Dos Santos’ arm and gave a warning.

Another man, Alexander Lekht, screamed at Jones from a different seat. Law enforcement asked Jones if he wanted to report the incident, he declined and went to baggage claim.

“Honestly I want a relationship without marriage too,” one person wrote. “Y’all do realize Oprah isn’t married and she’s a black woman..I know she’s a billionaire. But they were together before that and still going strong. Legal marriage does not equate good relationship,” noted another. As you can see, the reactions were definitely a bit of a range. There is no one size fits all approach to relationships, although some people are deadset on judging others regardless.

Today in Hip Hop History: The Diplomats Released Their Debut Album ‘Diplomatic Immunity’ 21 Years Ago

by
Dipset

On this date in 2003, Cam’ron’s crew from Harlem, The Diplomats, dropped their debut album Diplomatic Immunity on the Roc A Fella Records/Def Jam imprint during the pivotal time when Dame Dash appointed Cam’ron as the President of Roc-A-Fella Records.

Coming on the heels of the release of Cam’s Come Home With Me LP, Diplomatic Immunity introduced the entire Dipset squad, including Juelz Santana, Jim Jones, Freekey Zeekey, Un Kasa, and Hell Rell. With production from the likes of Heatmakerz, DR Period, and a then virtually unknown Kanye West, the trailblazing sound of old soul samples pushed Dipset to the forefront of the creative curve of Hip Hop, which offered the Blood-affiliated crew from Uptown an almost cult-like following. Rell was incarcerated by the time the album was available for purchase.

The album was saturated with longstanding hits such as “I Really Mean It,” the infectious “Dipset Anthem,” the female-friendly “Hey Ma,” and the Master P assisted “Bout It Bout It…Part I “. Commercially, the album was considered average, debuting at #8 on the Billboard 200 and selling 92,000 copies in its first week, but the album was certified Gold by the RIAA in 2005.

Salute to Cam, Juelz, Jim Jones, Freekey, and Hell Rell for this classic piece of Hip Hop history!

Dave East’s Valentine’s Day Allegedly Ruined By Jim Jones

by

Dave East, the acclaimed rapper and actor, found his plans for a romantic Valentine’s Day ruined by an unexpected turn of events involving fellow artist Jim Jones. According to Page Six, East and his date left the Soho House in New York after Jones allegedly claimed a VIP table that East had anticipated securing for the special evening. As East questioned why Jones was occupying the VIP space, frustration seemed to escalate. “Why is he sitting there? We were here before anybody else,” East reportedly voiced his discontent. The situation unfolded as Jones, accompanied by Chrissy Lampkin and their entourage, settled in to enjoy singer Jon B’s performance at the Soho House on Valentine’s Day.

In an attempt to resolve the brewing conflict, an associate of East reportedly intervened. However, the tension reached a breaking point, leading East to make a decisive choice. “It’s way too packed in here, and I am not standing up in this crowd. What am I supposed to do — just stand here? Nah, we out,” East allegedly exclaimed before leaving the venue with his date. Despite the Valentine’s Day setback, Dave East did not let the incident overshadow his week. On Friday, February 16, he released a new album titled For the Love, showcasing his resilience and dedication to his craft. Collaborating with DJ/producer Scram Jones, the project was made available exclusively on FTDNYC.com.

Quavo, Key Glock & Jim Jones Came To Impress At Paris Fashion Week

by

Paris Fashion Week has, as expected, been a pretty eventful opportunity for hip-hop greats to link up and dress to impress. Moreover, we’ve seen a lot of clips as of late as to how the rap-verse is spending this stylish time, including a video of two incredible artists, Solange and Yasiin Bey (FKA Mos Def), chopping it up. In addition, we also saw a couple of clips over the weekend of Quavo, Jim Jones, and Key Glock having fun during the occasion, and so many more that popped up as cameos. Most importantly, it’s always heartening to see these artists show love to each other, be it for their drip or anything else.

For example, Key Glock had himself an amazing time at Paris Fashion Week, turning up the crowd at what seems like an afterparty with his smash hit “Let’s Go.” Not only that, but plenty of other rappers also popped up around his section to greet him and talk for a bit. These include J Balvin, Gunna, and Yeat, which is just about the wildest combination one could imagine for a collab. Jokes aside, the Memphis MC will hopefully continue his 2023 acclaim into 2024, because his hard work and consistency definitely merits it.

Key Glock Turns Up At Paris Fashion Week

Elsewhere during Paris Fashion Week, Jim Jones played the double role of famous rapper clubbing it up and model. He walked the runway with a lot of confidence in a big cream jacket and a striking burgundy ensemble underneath. In addition, Capo also hung out with Quavo and listened to a Takeoff track in the club, and we’re sure they always appreciate the opportunity to tribute their fallen friend. With all these parties in mind, any Parisian readers should probably keep a list of all the hot clubs, just in case.

Meanwhile, last year, other artists like FKA twigs debuted new material at Paris Fashion Week, which also makes events like these as special as they are. Even if we could never even dream of attending one day, it’s always cool to see hip-hop represented. We’ll see what else pops up concerning how rappers spent their PFW.
