The longstanding beef between Jim Jones and French Montana is apparently over. On Thursday night (April 16), the two veteran rappers had a conversation on Instagram Live that ended up with two taking a trip down memory lane.
French shared a clip of the reunion on his Instagram page that found the Diplomats MC recalling a trip to the MTV Music Awards where French flipped him off. Although Jones got upset, he said Juelz Santana and a boatload of security was him and convinced him not to react. To his surprise, French said Jones held his security back and took off.
“15 YEARS OF BEEFING ENDED UP WITH LAUGHS AND WAR STORIES,” he wrote in the caption. “BIG MOMENT FOR HIP HOP SHOUT OUT TO @jimjonescapo #thatsafact ALL THE BLOGS THAT COVERED ALL THE BULLSHIT. MAKE SURE YALL PUT THE SAME ENERGY TO MAKING PEACE.”
Later in the conversation, French and Jones handed down some lessons they’ve learned over the years.
“If there’s anybody out there watching from the young niggas, man, learn from this,” French said. “Don’t waste 15 years in the game when y’all could have been getting all kinds of bags together,” to which Jones added, “”There’s a lot of foolish beefs and foolish shootings and there’s a lot going on right now with everybody cooped up in the house.”

In a 2019 interview, the incarcerated Coke Wave rapper Max B addressed the Jones situation and appeared to have a new, more mature perspective on it.
“It was just egos clashing, a lack of respect,” he said in the clip. That shit don’t mix well, and next thing you know, we beefin’. As far as the content or whatever, it should’ve went a different way. I think today we would’ve handled the situation differently.
Max B Laments Past Jim Jones Beef: 'It Was Just Egos Clashing'
“I think [it was] two egos coming together, two big personalities. We was young. We was all crazy, and now we’re here. We’re older, we got kids. [There’s] people looking at us, we gotta set the right example. We can’t be looking crazy out here. It is what it is, it’s all love. I’m trying to get back over on that plate.”
In the photo Jim Jones looks like he just smelled a fart.
wasnt real beef. no one got hurt. french was hiding from jimmy for years after max went in.
Ummm. Do you not like French? (Asking for a friend)
Nobody actually likes French Montana. He’s a crew hopping no talent vulture thats never been able to stand on his own.
That’s a lie he’s one of my favorite rappers
U must be a flamboyant phagot then.
LOl. Yeah, he was the guy selling DVDs with interviews of New York rappers like Saigon and Tru Life back in like 2005, then he signed to Akon’s label, which nothing materialized from, then he got a nice buzz as a rapper by clinging to Max B’s wave, then when Max went to prison he used his buzz to go past local, I believe Waka Flocka’s mother started managing him and he started working with trap rappers from the south a lot, aligned himself with Rick Ross and P Diddy, which ultimately got him his deal where he was able to blow up, but not without a single that featured 3 much more famous guys. Calling him a crew hopper checks out.
WAR STORIES? LOLOL FUCK OUTTA HERE! HIDING BEHIND SOME SECURITY AT AN AWARDS SHOW ISNT WAR! HIDING IN YA CAR SCARED TO GET OUT AND FIGHT ISNT WAR! FRENCH NEVER PUT HANDS ON ANYONE AND DIPSET LOST EVERY BEEF THEY EVERY HAD, ESPECIALLY IN THE STREETS
NOT A BIG MOMENT FOR HIP HOP
Threw up in my mouth a bit
Why? Because two dudes realised they were being immature little punks back when they were younger and have grown a little bit as human beings in the years that passed? Nothing wrong with that.
I’m happy that is over. If you’re reading this you don’t have to you’re older to make this choice as well.
French montana had em bangers 2010 ish
That was all Max B bangers thou
I wonder what could happen if I wasn’t an immature, pos, Twitter gangster…
