Jim Jones evidently isn’t participating in the Gucci boycott that was launched earlier this year. The luxury fashion brand was dragged all over social media after they released a $890 sweater that closely resembled black face.
The Dipset OG made his feelings clear via Instagram on Thursday (May 23). He shared a photo of himself rocking a Gucci hoodie with a matching belt and flexed on any rappers who had a problem with it.
“Don’t ask me about Gucci goofy when dap start sellin 2 DD’s instead of 2 GG’s I will stop rockin it,” he wrote in the caption. “but until then eat ur heart out any rappers have a issues wit tht I’m never hard to find AMEN. Ps lookin like I brang th Scurl back lol.”
T.I., Soulja Boy and Spike Lee are only a handful of celebrities who took a stance against the company — despite their apology.
“@gucci As a 7 figure/yr customer & long time supporter of your brand I must say…Y’all GOT US fucked UP!!!” Tip wrote on Instagram “APOLOGY NOT ACCEPTED!!!! We ain’t going for this “oops my bad I didn’t mean to be racist and disrespectful towards your people” shit!!! Y’all knew wtf y’all was doin and WE AINT GOING FOR IT!!! We ALL GOTTA Stop buying,wearing,and supporting this piece of shit company And ALL PIECE OF SHIT COMPANIES UNTIL THEY LEARN TO RESPECT OUR DOLLARS & VALUE OUR BUSINESS!!!!
“Our culture RUNS THIS SHIT!!! We (People of color) spend $1.25 TRILLION/year (but are the least respected and the least included)and if we stop buying ANYTHING they MUST correct any and ALL of our concerns. That’s THE ONLY WAY we can get some RESPECT PUT ON OUR NAME!!!! I Don’t Give a Fuck if I gotta wear Target brand shit…. #FuckGucci.”
That whole black face bullshit was blown out of proportion anyways. People butt hurt over anything these days. Half the labels the muthafukas be wearing be oppressing the poor anyways, boycott the lot of them fucking dickheads

I’m far from white, you little dick loser, so no, you’re wrong. Get off his sack, and unless you are Jims has been Jones, you know nothing about his money, other than he hasnt been relevant for over a decade. Oh, I sound stupid because he has money that he… Doesn’t have? He was never a top tier rapper, never had the fame of a Jay, em, or Wayne, so that little cash flow was never enough to sustain him, specially with his lifestyle. You a whole ass and the sack if you think he has 150 million in the mattress.

Well, when one doesn’t really have anything going on about them, I guess such a stunt works in their favor. Ignorance is bliss. Let Jimmy rock it for all I care. Quite honestly, if I cared about his music, or he was a positive influence or even had an ounce of some intellectual capacity, I’d be offended. But people. It’s Jim Jones. The Uncle Toms and Uncle Ruckus’ have always existed before our time. Let’s not react like we expected any better from this dweeb lol. Seriously. I respect a lot more grade school – soon to be leaders than this punk.
Why y’all gotta talk like that? its clearly you bout that fame shit smh! thats defination of bullshit i wish you was coming from where Jones bred this boy on some god shit,shut the fuck up if you aint know nuthin bout him..god!!! i swear i wish you was coming from the same road..stop judging coz someone is not famous like your motherfucking favorite….you cant influence everybody people are different.People living real life out here you can be famous and die while you never had shit,you must have heard what Scooter said….
He does not know!
DIPSET is the most mediocre, average rap collective of all time. The only reason they got so big was that they came up during the era when NY rap started falling off and the south started dominating. (2003-2007). Jim Jons, Juelz, and Cam all rap like a bunch of special-ed kids, and their fanbase is just as slow.
Dipset came in when New York was at a all-time high. 50 cent was the biggest artist in the game. G unit sold r records. Banks game buck yay o even went gold. Fab was popping. Jada was platinum. Hov and the roc… I tripping. Get ya facts straight.
Purple Haze was a fantastic album. They were never lyrically gifted, but the Diplomatic Immunity albums were good listens, if only for the production values.
Good for Jimmy, people was WAY too sensitive over some shit that wasn’t even supposed to be racist ffs. People love to jump on any bandwagon these days.
Jim Jones who????
Who the F is Jim Jones?
when u say something like “idgaf if i gotta wear target brand shit”… 10 times outta 10 u give a phuk
If you gotta comment negative its just best to leave cause no one acknowledges your trash…its just stupid come guys y’all wasting time..ok you have commented shit then what? i know y’all deep in your hearts understand what am saying but u wont accept it….dick heads smh
Boo hoo.
“People have said things I don’t agree with! Don’t say anything if you can’t be nice! You’re a bunch of meanies!!”
Get your pathetic self out of here, and stop being a Jim Jones groupie while you’re at it. Loser.
You just acknowledged it numb nuts smfh u so “woke” lol
Shut the F up will you?
He’s nothing but a loser.
Spending money on a business doesn’t mean you “run it” lol if anything it runs you.
Who cares. If we boycotted everything because of racism we would go fuckin crazy. MF out here boycotting but still callin Gucci Mane for features. FOH!!!
Sounds like the editor is trying to stir something up. I doubt the post was meant to be anything serious… why is this even a story?
I clicked on this article only to comment how as a grown man, I could careless what another man wears. And the moment I do, I’d be like the editor of this article, A FUCKIN HOMO!
