Jim Jones is vehemently in opposition to cartoons – particularly anime – and he had to verify everybody knew his stance when he was lately approached in regards to the matter.
The dialog occurred on a brand new episode of Complicated‘s GOAT Discuss Present that was shared on Wednesday (April 12).
Alongside fellow Dipset members Juelz Santana and Freekey Zekey, the blokes have been requested their ideas on the G.O.A.T. (best of all time) animated film – which set Jim off on a tangent. Whereas Juelz quietly selected The Lion King, the Capo had another ideas.
“I’m not an anime ass n-gga,” Jim Jones started. “I ended watching cartoons when them shits was approaching on Saturdays. I don’t know what these n-ggas be in they home doing. I don’t have time to sit down down and watch a muthafuckin’ two-hour cartoon. You n-ggas resides in another shit.”
When Juelz and Zeke talked about that individuals could also be watching with their children, Jim disagreed.
“These n-ggas ain’t obtained children. These n-ggas is watching this shit with they homeboys. [Like,] ‘Ay yo, you seen the brand new anime?!’ You bought Boku and Roku and whoever these n-ggas names is. Like n-gga you desire a cartoon tattooed on you, n-gga?!”
It’s unclear if Jim misheard the query as strictly anime or if he simply had a bone to choose with the style however one factor is definite: he’s not a fan of the Japan-produced animation. He could also be within the minority, nevertheless, as followers had loads to say in response.

“Previous heads will go on a hour lengthy rant bout something fashionable ppl do lmao,” one person said, whereas another added: “n-ggas love pretending they so busy lmao you aren’t Jay Z.”
“Jim Jones is corny as hell,” another person added. “I don’t watch anime like that, however some anime are dope. I’m positive his children watch anime.”
Nonetheless, not everybody disagreed with Jim’s take. “This only a generational hole,” one user tweeted. “N-ggas in they 40s and up don’t fuck with anime, perhaps just a few right here and there, however our cartoon/anime part left after we outgrew GIJoe and transformers.”
“I each agree and disagree. There’s nothing flawed with watching no matter tf you need to watch,” another said. “However there even be mfs out right here pushing 30 obsessive about these fictional characters like they fucking 12. Develop tf up. And this is applicable to all media fr, not simply anime.”
Jim Jones has been providing up numerous sizzling takes as of late. Throughout a current look on The RapCaviar Podcast , Capo made the declare that Huge Sean is a greater rapper than Pusha T whereas discussing Billboard’s High 50 Biggest Rappers of All Time record – on which Pusha is ranked twenty ninth.
Capo acknowledged that the Clipse MC is a proficient lyricist, however argued he hasn’t made sufficient of a cultural impression to be thought of a High 50 rapper of all time. He even went as far as to say this his former G.O.O.D. Music labelmate Huge Sean is extra deserving of the nod.
“What has [Pusha T] executed that places him within the Biggest Rappers of All Time [list] in addition to speaking about coke that he in all probability didn’t get himself?” Jones stated with a chuckle. “He’s good! He’s good as fuck, he can rap his ass off. However what has he executed? No one has dressed like him, no one needs to be like Pusha T. I don’t bear in mind nothing.
“And let’s not be evil, however we don’t discuss rap the place the n-ggas that’s popping, the bitches wanna fuck and the n-ggas wanna be like. I don’t know too many n-ggas on this recreation that was leaning in the direction of being like Pusha T.”
He continued: “I might put Huge Sean earlier than Pusha T … Cam’ron earlier than Pusha T. Bro, you go in these golf equipment, I don’t know no information they play within the membership with Pusha T. They don’t play his shit exterior … NBA YoungBoy earlier than Pusha T.
“That’s how I really feel about Pusha T being on the High 50. I’m not saying he don’t get busy, not saying he don’t obtained platinum information, not saying he not a part of G.O.O.D. Music, not saying he’s not a part of all of this stuff — however he’s not the chief of his bunch.”
Joe Budden addressed Jim Jones’ remarks on his eponymous podcast this week, and stated the Harlem native is flat-out flawed for his evaluation.
“I do really feel like Pusha belongs within the High 50,” he stated. “After all I respect what Jim has to say in regards to the difficulty, however I believe he’s placing a Harlem standards on all of Hip Hop with this, Who needed to decorate like him? Do the n-ggas wanna be like him? Do the ladies wanna fuck him? That sounds very Harlem of him.
“And the reply to that’s no, as a result of Pusha T isn’t promoting 100,000 copies week one as we speak. However that don’t take away from his artistry, what he’s executed, who he’s executed it with, the place he’s executed it, his songs, his singles — he’s obtained it.
“I believe Jim Jones is wrong saying that Huge Sean ought to be ranked increased than Pusha T on their record. I’m emphatically saying you can not be extra flawed … Sean simply obtained right here in 2012 — someplace round there. And he did all the things he wanted to do, offered a bunch of information, however now, it’s somewhat on the quieter facet. I’m saying this respectfully. We in 2023 — that’s 10 years.”
