Jonny Boy Speaks: Jim Jones Beefing With Jay-Z & T.I.? printer friendly version Send this story to a friend!
Posted: 10/9/2008 5:12:17 AM by Jon Michael

Yes, yes, ladies and gentlemen Jonny Boy a.k.a Sinatra is back in the mix for week something-teen of Jonny Boy speaks and I got a lot to speak about so buckle up and get ready for the ride. Let me just say for the record that what Jim Jones did at Koch with “We Fly High” and even before that was immaculate but if he wants to continue baallllllliinnnn’ he needs to cut out these shenanigans. What shenanigans you ask? Well I’ll tell you.

Jim Jones recently spoke to Complex magazine and made some less than cool comments about Jay-Z and T.I. When asked how he felt about not being included on “Swagger Like Us”, he responded with this brilliant answer:

“I think it was deliberate. I really do think it was deliberate; maybe in my sick twisted mind I’m a little crazy. People know who set the precedent as far as fashion in this industry and people know who damn near changed the world as far as fashion. You look at people; they went from the urban world of clothing, back when Rocawear and Sean John was cool. And then in the past 5 years I stepped in and gave them a taste of what rock and roll looks like from my side. I guess people would say from an urban side, and it seemed to catch on like wildfire, to the point that people was going to stores and asking for that Jim Jones look. Me and Juelz had Chink do our own beat, I have Weezy’s verse in my inbox right now and we kept the hook of that song because it was a sample. So we’re going to put that as a bonus track on the album, and put it to the streets. “No one on the corner got swag like you we don’t Rocawear that’s for fags like you.” [Laughs.]

What in the name of Zeus’ butthole is this guy talking about? The interviewer had no idea what to say to this buffoonery so here’s what he said.

Complex: Ahhh…

How friggin’ great is that? I love it because I would have been speechless too. Jim didn’t stop there though. The madness ensued with this Harvard MBA of a comment.

Jim Jones: And look at the Vibe cover. Tell me who Jay-Z looks like in there? Did you see the picture of him? With the Louis Vuitton scarf and all that. Who did that resemble? You can say it. But he did it wrong; he had a Gucci belt with a Louis Vuitton scarf. Who does that? You smell me? That’s like wearing one Nike and one Puma; how you going to get away with that? But I didn’t take the song as a shot, because I don’t feel like none [besides Weezy] of them possess any swag.

Wow. That’s really all I can say is wow. I mean I just don’t get it. Why would somebody make these statements? If anybody can help me wrap my head around this please let me know.

When the interviewer asked about T.I.,  Mr. Jones had another beautifully colorful remark. Nah, but seriously what the hell is happening?

Jim Jones: I don’t feel like he possesses any swag. Not like that. It’s fabricated. They’re watching other people, then they try and do it. You know people that dress like T.I.? You know people that go out and say let me get a T.I. outfit or do you know people who say “yo, you’re looking like Jim Jones?” Which one? Lemme hear it! When the bitches want to fuck you and the niggas want be like you, who got the swag? Niggas with money and fame always going to look like they doing something ’cause they got the camera in front of them. But the cool dudes always stick out no matter where they at.

Again, wow. Now I’m about to go off. All right, first off why in the hell would Jay-Z and T.I. making a song have anything to do with Jim Jones? Why would he assume such a thing? T-Pain did songs with just about everybody. Maybe he really hates Jim Jones and his revenge is to keep doing songs with everyone. Justin Timberlake and T.I. also did a song together. It was all a scheme to leave Jim Jones out. I didn’t hear any subliminals in that song to make Jim think that anything was up. And why is he going in on T.I.? T.I. was on the “We Fly High Remix”. He even went to the video shoot. He even brought Young Dro with him.

I’m seriously confused but I do know that T.I. and Jay-Z is a little too much to handle for anybody so I hope this doesn’t turn into a battle of words because it’s going to be a real one sided match. As far as making their own version of the song, I don’t even know what to say. And how can Lil Wayne be on both? Anyway, I’ll keep you guys posted. Jonny Boy signing off and I’m out ‘til I’m back. Peace
