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 subject.
The dialog occurred on a brand new episode of Advanced‘s GOAT Discuss Present that was shared on Wednesday (April 12).
Alongside fellow Dipset members Juelz Santana and Freekey Zekey, the blokes had been requested their ideas on the G.O.A.T. (biggest 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 folks could also be watching with their children, Jim disagreed.
“These n-ggas ain’t acquired 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 select with the style however one factor is for certain: 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 trendy 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.”
Nevertheless, 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 section left after we outgrew GIJoe and transformers.”
“I each agree and disagree. There may be nothing flawed with watching no matter tf you wish 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 lots of scorching takes as of late. Throughout a latest look on The RapCaviar Podcast , Capo made the declare that Massive Sean is a greater rapper than Pusha T whereas discussing Billboard’s High 50 Best 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 influence to be thought-about a High 50 rapper of all time. He even went as far as to say this his former G.O.O.D. Music labelmate Massive Sean is extra deserving of the nod.
“What has [Pusha T] performed that places him within the Best Rappers of All Time [list] moreover speaking about coke that he in all probability didn’t get himself?” Jones mentioned with a chuckle. “He’s good! He’s good as fuck, he can rap his ass off. However what has he performed? No person has dressed like him, no person needs to be like Pusha T. I don’t keep 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 Massive Sean earlier than Pusha T … Cam’ron earlier than Pusha T. Bro, you go in these golf equipment, I don’t know no data they play within the membership with Pusha T. They don’t play his shit outdoors … 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 acquired platinum data, not saying he not a part of G.O.O.D. Music, not saying he’s not a part of all of these items — however he’s not the chief of his bunch.”
Joe Budden addressed Jim Jones’ remarks on his eponymous podcast this week, and mentioned the Harlem native is flat-out flawed for his evaluation.
“I do really feel like Pusha belongs within the High 50,” he mentioned. “In fact I respect what Jim has to say in regards to the difficulty, however I feel 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 women wanna fuck him? That sounds very Harlem of him.
“And the reply to that’s no, as a result of Pusha T shouldn’t be promoting 100,000 copies week one at present. However that don’t take away from his artistry, what he’s performed, who he’s performed it with, the place he’s performed it, his songs, his singles — he’s acquired it.
“I feel Jim Jones is wrong saying that Massive Sean needs to be ranked larger than Pusha T on their record. I’m emphatically saying you might not be extra flawed … Sean simply acquired right here in 2012 — someplace round there. And he did all the pieces he wanted to do, offered a bunch of data, however now, it’s just a little on the quieter aspect. I’m saying this respectfully. We in 2023 — that’s 10 years.”
