Jim Jones had an interview with Funkmaster Flex earlier this week on New York’s Hot 97. Suprisingly, he wasn’t there to promote his new music, but reach out to Cam’ron, his former Dipset partner. Jones wants to reunite…

Jim Jones actually humbled himself, and had this to say to Cam, who he calls Flea:

“I’ve been selfish about a lot of things, due to my own selfish ways, me feeling that it was the right thing to do,” he said, noticeably selecting his words. “But at that same time it’s not about me all the time, and there is a lot of other people that’s involved. And for the most part me and Flea came up together for a long time, so I’m just extending my hand to the contribution of getting this Diplomats business done. So if Cam is listening maybe we can you know sit down and get this business together and give the people what they want.”  Listen to AUDIO

Do you think they should reunite?

Guess who’s bizzack! Cam’ron, former Dipset affiliate, is on the cover of the April issue of XXL. He gives us an insight as to his hiatus, Diplomats ownership, and his beef with Jim Jones and Juelz Santana, along with some other issues. Cam said he has moved on from his era with Dipset even though his fans can’t imagine Dipset without him. “…So I understand what the fans are saying,” Cam told XXL executive editor Vanessa Satten, who penned the article. “And it’s kinda messed up. But what you gotta realize is that things can always be fixed behind the scenes. But once a problem gets public, it’s kind of unfixable.” (more…)

Can we all just get along. Former Dipset member Max B and Jim Jones got into a fight…It Went Down and Max B Explains The Brawl He Had With Jim Jones & Damage Done To His Car! He says, “Theres No Beef With Juelz Santana. Just With Jim”

Since Cam’ron has been laying low, Juelz Santana and Jim Jones became the face of the Diplomats/Dipset movement. Well, although Cam’ron has been hard to pin down, he is making BIG moves…Cam’ron recently sold Juelz Santana contract to Def Jam for $2 Million. Like Jim Jones, Juelz also distanced himself from his former mentor.

In an email posted on Miss Info’s website, Juelz had this to say about his contract being sold to Def Jam:

“A! What’s good !! Yeah, I’m free!! And ready to do me!! But its still Dip Set 4 life!! Its just going to be a new chapter!!” he stated. Although he said that it was “still Dip Set 4 life,” he followed by addressing his relationship with Killa Cam. (more…)

Max B, former Dipset member, just escaped injury after a person opened fire at his concert in New York this past week. Max B, who’s real name is Charly Wingate, performed at SOB on Tuesday Night when a group of men entered the venue and fired gunshots. “They came in 25 deep, a couple of songs were playing and a guy was in Max’s face making gestures. One thing led to another and the whole crew bumrushed (ran up to) the security and everyone started fighting. That’s when a single shot was let off.” No fatalities were reported. (more…)

Max B, former member of Jim Jones’ ByrdGang, has signed a three-album deal with the hip-hop online company Amalgam Digital. Max will join the Amalgam Digital roster – which includes Peedi Crakk and Joe Budden. The Harlem rapper is best known for ghostwriting Jim Jones’ monster single, “We Fly High (Ballin).” Max B will release Public Domain III: Domain Pain (The Album) this summer in the streets than will debut album Vigilante Season on the Amalgam Digital label shortly after.

So we hear that Max was recently seen on a YouTube video sparking some controversial statements against Jones.

“Shout-out to Chrissy, I love you baby,” he laughingly said. “She touched it in Miami. That’s Jim Jones wife by the way, oh yeah.”

Freekey Zekey of Dipset was nearly killed in a horrible car accident yesterday. The rapper escaped death while returning home from a recording session. Zekey’s 2007 white S550 Benz was totaled in a three car pile up at 115th Street and 1st Avenue in Manhattan. His publicist confirmed that Zeke, realname Ezekial Jiles, was struck from the back while still at a red light. The impact was so bad that it sent Zeke and his passenger up in the air and they landed on a parked Hummer. Suprisingly the two only had minimal bruising which required a nights stay in the hospital. “I’m just happy to know that Zeke was not severely injured,” said fellow Dipset member Juelz Santana.

New York Daily News reports that Juelz Santana was arrested in New Jersey last week. Police initially pulled him over for driving with a suspended license, however they found him to be in possession of marijuana and illegal hollow point bullets. Santana’s Bentley was pulled over by cops as he approached his home in Teaneck, NJ.  (more…)
