50 Cent Responds To Jim Jones; Accuses Him Of Being A Government Snitch

Curtis Jackson III, better known as 50 Cent, has responded to recent comments made by Dipset rapper Jim Jones during an interview with Justin Laboy in which the latter called out the former and Cam’ron.

On Instagram, 50 Cent shared a picture of Jones posing in front of Jay-Z, Diddy, Fat Joe, and others, in which it appears the stars are leaving him out of the conversation. He captioned the post: “LOL. INDIVIDUAL 1 calling the shots out here, I know you working so please don’t say gangster sh*t to me INDIVIDUAL 1!”

Available reports show this was about allegations that Jones had worked as a federal informant. Those claims reportedly stem from 6ix9ine‘s racketeering trial, the transcript from which 50 Cent also shared in the post. In the document, Jones allegedly says 6ix9ine needs to “get violated” and “he ain’t a gang member no more.”

The drama began when Cam’ron and 50 Cent discussed Jones’ infamous 2007 performance with G-Unit, amid an ongoing rift within Dipset. Appearing on Cam’s Talk With Flee podcast, 50 Cent claimed the move was made to sow dissent within the group. While discussing those comments with LaBoy, Jones said:

“Them n***as be on my dick. Them n***as ain’t got nothing else to think about but Capo. I did a lot for them n***as in their life, ya heard? Both of them. Pause, though. Get off my dick! It’s only space on there for baby girl. Come on, man. Tugging on my sh*t like that.”

Speaking with Laboy, Jones also reflected on Cam’s attempts to settle the problems within Dipset at the time. “That n***a couldn’t pull nothing together. He couldn’t do nothing with me. He couldn’t tell me nothing, n***a,” he said. “Let’s not get this sh*t twisted. Nobody could tell me nothing. I was my own boss […], I did what I wanted to do. I seen the sh*t wasn’t going right so I started doing what Jim Jones needed to do for Jim Jones ’cause the n***a that was supposed to be the don wasn’t taking care of the Capo. It started feeling like the Gotti movie, ya heard?” Jones has yet to respond to 50’s latest jab.
