Jim Jones has responded to 50 Cent implying that he worked as an informant in the racketeering case against 6ix9ine and the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods.
The two rappers have been trading jabs ever since 50’s recent interview with Cam’ron where he spoke about persuading Jones to perform with him at the height of his late 2000s beef with Killa Cam — a move the Dipset leader described as brilliantly “devious.”

After Capo took issue with the pair’s conversation and threw shots at both of them, the G-Unit boss responded by digging up a court transcript of an infamous wiretapped conversation between Jim Jones and others, in which they plotted revenge on 6ix9ine for disavowing the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods.
“LOL [grinning face emoji] INDIVIDUAL 1 calling the shots out here, I know you working so please don’t say gangster shit to me INDIVIDUAL 1!” 50 wrote in a sneering Instagram post, referencing the Harlem rapper being identified as “Individual-1” in the transcript.

Capo hit back on Thursday (January 9) by accusing 50 of lying and attempting to brush off his taunt.
“Why u keep on lying why u keep on lying [big nose emoji] lol I’m goin back to sleep [sleeping face emoji],” he wrote on Instagram alongside a throwback picture of himself.
“Free Mel matrix till it’s reversed,” he added, referencing his close friend and alleged Nine Trey member who is serving a 135-month prison sentence for racketeering charges (and who was also on the wiretapped phone call).
Jones followed that up with a video of him performing weighted calisthenics in the gym, captioning it: “I’m physically strong but mentally stronger they can’t do nothing wit me.”

He also posted a clip of him shooting a music video in Harlem with Lil Baby, Future and Juelz Santana. “To [sic] much drip in 1 flic Atl invades Harlem. Reality is way diffrent then th[e] net lol,” he wrote alongside it.
50 has yet to respond.
Jim Jones’ initial jabs at 50 Cent centered around his and Cam’ron’s retelling of their controversial performance together in New York City in 2007.
Appearing on Justin Laboy’s Respectfully podcast, he said: “Them n-ggas be on my dick. Them n-ggas ain’t got nothing else to think about but Capo. I did a lot for them n-ggas in their life. Both of them.”
He also disputed Fif’s suggestion that he was lured into coming out on stage with him and Cam’s disappointment at the perceived betrayal.
“They called me like, ‘Yo, you wanna come out and perform at the show?’ [I replied,] ‘Shit yeah! I got the hottest record, I’m popping out,'” Capo remembered. “I wasn’t on nobody’s friendship. I was a pirate.”

He then poked fun at 50’s fashion sense, saying: “Them n-ggas [in G-Unit] couldn’t even dress, but he had a platform for me to perform on in front of thousands of people in New York. Yeah, I’m taking that.”
Cam’ron has yet to respond to his fellow Diplomat’s comments, but it looks like he’ll address the drama on his and Ma$e‘s sports talk show It Is What It Is, which returns on Monday (January 13).
