Get Your Own Swag

Posted by Bossip Staff

Jim Jones responds to being left off T.I.’s “Swagger Like Us” track ft. Weezy, Jay-Z, and Kanye:

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.”

We think it is safe to say Jim Jones is acting a little broadish right now. Maybe T.I. just forgot about you, Jim, or couldn’t find you at the hair salon getting fresh cornrows. Don’t worry, we promise not to like the song (fingers crossed).

Read the full article to see how Jim Jones really feels about Jay-Z and T.I.’s swag.

    Jim Jones hasn’t been hot since BALLING so he can’t have Swagger Like *****ody

  10. Dame

    Oh yeah he is a HATER

  11. Dame

    My last comment

    he stay Jocking Jay-Z *wink*

    If the wasn’t hot and none of them expect Weezy don’t have no swag then why are YOU MAD Jenny Jones.


  12. Jim Jones 1 hit “Ballin” VS Jay-Z 100 hits!!

    No contest! Jim trying to drop Lil Wayne in the conversation, because he is no where near J status!!

    out


  13. What a loser y is he bragging about setting trends when he looks like crap

  14. Tracey

    He looks GAY, he has a prison down lo look about him.

    His butt cheeks hang out of his pants, it is like a secret thrilling GAY thing. I could imagine men who have been in prison for over a year or more ALL look like this!

    This is a GAY PRISON BLACK LOOK!

  15. shavon denise

    OMG Jim are you serious??? Like are you that delusional to think that you deserve to rap on the same track as those dudes?? Do you really think that you have MORE swagger than those 4 dudes?? You wouldnt even get an honorable mention or wouldnt even be on the next 10 versions of the song if they continue to make 10 remixes. Like you’re no Andre 3000, now he could have said the same thing that you said and it wouldve made more since but he wouldnt resort to suck **********ness. I mean you friend turned foe Camron will be invited to parti*****te on this track b4 u!

  16. joey bishop

    wtf jim j0nes talkin bout,weezy swagga jacked 2pac m bob marley,and the lil ***** still aint got it.

  17. *QUIN*QUIN*

    Hmmm lets see we have Kanye West, Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, T.I. and……Jim Jones? Doesn’t even sound right. He’ll never be on their level. Trips me out how some people really have an over inflated sense of how big they really are.

  18. Shay

    I’ve never gone shopping and thoughg..”I wonder what Jim “Dirt Baby” Jones would wear”.

  19. b aura

    you gotta understand the whole rock and roll fashion integrated with hiphop been happening in japanese fashion maybe 2 years before dip set and the whole mainstream hopped on it. along with the hipster fashion over here that’s been dead in japan for years.

    jimmy’s trippin.

  20. marla

    STOP HATE N these TWO will NEVER BE a JAY Z or T.I. or LIL WAYNE or KANYE!! they are all ONE OF A KIND!! they are 4 different rappers but are LIKED VERY MUCH. DURTY JIM and DEM are not LIKED and Julez would do MUCH BETTER if he gets away/drops hanggin with jim and that dude who wear’s pink!!…

  21. BeReal

    Jim Jones…***** please!

    Half the time you are not even fully dressed which swagger are you referring to????

    Kanye, TI Jay-z and Weezy they have swagger – Nas, Nelly, Luda, 50 cent etc have swagger before you !!!

    hmmmm what people do think of themselves.

  22. Lily

    Handsome, I saw his profile with photos on interracial romancing .com, where interracial singles hook up. The photos are not verified yet but the profile

    looks sincere, attractive and sexy.

  23. TAMENA J. (HATERS GONE HATE)

    He is my boo right there. Most people on this site probably down south *****s only checkin for a beat and some Soulja Boy raps. TI is wack and everyone in real hip hop circles know this. Check his raps on that “Whatever you Like” song. They is garbage like the rest of the rappers outside the northeast. And we claim “The Clipse” as northern too so STFU please!!!!


  24. Looks like he needs a shower asap

    How bout getting a real single out and being relevant again before complaining you aint up there with Kayne…please

  25. Oshie (I'm at home now)

    How do you make a *****got sweaty? See above.

  26. dapro11(protesting the Jim Jones movement)

    Oshie what’s up lady

    Aight Jim Jones and the Dips did start the Rock and Roll movement in hip hop but who’s feeling that sh&#????

    Ban the tight pants!!

  27. ha.....ha....ha

    i agree with jim jones both jay-z and t.i. are some *****ing swagga jackers them *****s aint got no swagga lmao


  28. them *****s aint got no heart they aint got no love for


  29. this fool is an idiot. exactly what style has he ever brought to the table besides a dirty, grubby nasty swagger? he is so out of touch it’s sad. jay-z, t.i., and kanye maybe don’t have the best fashion sense but at least they practice good personal hygiene on a regular basis.

  30. SOPH

    He is right abt being first with that rock star look but he needs to get over it. Be a man Jimbo & stop whining

  31. always knew

    Jim Jones is a one hit wonder crackhead….So what? He would hate on everybody else, he doesn’t have any money….

  32. kisha

    jim sounds like a pu$sy.

    grow up.

  33. Corey

    Why does someone who has only one hit record in their lifetime get so much talk time? This dude rides Jay-Z’s nuts to the point of *****gotry. LOL at changed the fashion world.

  34. DA TRUFF ??? YOU CAN'T HANDLE DA TRUFF!!!!!!!

    RAP & HIP-HOP REALLY KINDA SUCK RIGHT NOW……….

    GIVE ME SOME OLD SCHOOL, SOME R&B, OR SOME SOUL MUSIC ANYDAY!!!

  35. LA REINE

    Someone hit the nail right on the head when they said he was delusional. Those Louis scarves over the head are straight corny on him and anyone else. Him hatin on Jay hardbody is straight corny as well. *****ody thought about him being on the song because he cant rap. He is not a fashion icon and I dont know why he thinks he is. His skull chains look like something a kid would want.CHEESY as hell. Why is he critiquing another mans outfit. If anyone is a ***** its him.

  36. FURIOUZ STYLEZ

    WHO DIED AND LEFT JIM JONES IN CHARGE OF THE RELEVANT?!

    IS HE FUCCIN SERIOUS YO…”BALLLLLLLLLLIN’” IS ALL ALL HE’S GONNA MEASURE UP TO…HE AINT GOOD FOR ***** ELSE

    T.I. AINT NO IDIOT…PICK JIM JONES OVER JAY-Z?!!! ITS NUTHIN’ TO THINK ABOUT…LIKE THE FAT KID WHO GETS PICKED LAST AT BASEBALL IN GYM CL*****…YA ***** IS BENCHED!

    AND WHY EVERYBODY START WHINING WHEN IT COMES TO ANYTHING INVOLVED WITH JAY-Z? FIRST FOXY BROWN, THEN DAMON DASH, THEN THEN TEAIRRA MARI AND NOW THIS SWEATY-***** BUM NICCA WHO LOOKS LIKE HE SMELLS LIKE BURNT NIGHTTRAIN

    I NEED A JEEZY-TYPE VACATION FROM THIS **********NESS


  37. Um… Jim Jones…? Dude need to come out with another single 1st before he opens his trap. Mad because all his albums go triple gl*****. Stfu and do you. Worrying about what other dudes are wearing and then trying to make his own “Swagger like us” mix. Man, what swagger? Dude looks MAD dirty. He needs to spend more time in the booth than doing little interviews whining and complaining. **********ness x 100.

  38. Miss V@nity F@ir

    OMG….HATING ***** JIMMY IS BACK @ IT…WEN IS HE GONNA UNDERSTAND…NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOU…U AINT *****…WIT HIS ONE HIT WONDER *****..***** U STILL LIVING OFF BALLIN..THAT ***** WAS 3 YEARS AGO..NO ONE CARES ANYMORE..


  39. What happened to him becoming the next big thing

    I thought Dame Dash was supposed to make him to

    the new Jay-z , well someone needs to be fired B/C its not working.


  40. @FURIOUZ STYLEZ

  41. Oshie (I'm at home now)

  43. Alexis

    Jim is buggin but I have always felt Jay didnt do right by Dame IMO.

    TI is not wack either and I wish him or any man would give me whatever I like..lol

  44. J2B

    How the hell he talking about swag when he still rocks them tired ***** cornrows? Grow the hell up. Damn, I am so sick of grown ***** men talking about each other on some juvenile type *****.

  45. Carla

    There’s Jimmy talking m*****ive ***** once again about some one. He should stop drinking so much, lol…. Drunk ***** people talk too much crap, he should check into rehab, I heard there’s an out patient program for those that can’t commit to staying in a traditional rehab program.


  46. What eva happened to that corn-ball Cameron

  47. Im Not Johnny But My My My

    Guess What Jimmy?? Ima Just tell u if *****ody never did YOU WACKKKKKKKKKKK!!!! Thats y you wasnt on the song ya garbage *****…lol even lil wayne who is supposed to be his ‘boy’ put jay on the carter 3 where was jimmy …NOWHERE cause you wack ..you had 1 lil hit you’ll never have another one …you cant be compared to no one on the swagger song especially Jay … go shave and cut them *****abugs out yo head and you MIGHT be considered for a song about swagger

  48. jena4rmthablock

  49. jena4rmthablock

    oh lawd I dun read the full article and that dude is *****in me off!

    Are all NY rappers this ***** like. 50 now Jimmy boi?

    Swag is yo attitude, demeanor, it makes ***** wanna be you and the girls wanna be with you. Clothes ain’t got nothin to do with swag, its your whole being.

    So do your hood research before you open your pie hole you promoho!

  50. ray

    jim jones looks like tracy morgan in that pic.


  51. SINCE MAX B LEFT JIM HAS’NT MADE ANY HITS.


  52. theY neED to Do A yOung VErsION n PUT BOW wOW cuZ boW wOW gOT SWAGGGGGGGGGG bELIEVE IT OR NOTTTTT!!!

  53. Rozza♥

    He looks like he has that sharp migraine-inducing funk.

  54. phezzy 4 real

    Jim Jones is washed up. I didn’t know this ***** still rapped. Cam would’ve did a better job as Capo than Jim. I’m starting to think New York *****s are so smart that their DUMB!!! If he was smart he would squash the beef with Jay and get money together.Jay z is the only rapper in New York for the last couple of years eatting. What do dumb *****, arrogant ***** New York rappers do’???Go against the best in their area. Not a smart move!!! Jimmy is local only in New York and needs some help outside of NY. lol It’s funny ..because if New York *****s wanted to they could kill the game right now.They mastered the rapping craft but their so arrogant and so use to *****s being in control they do want to use down south beats and kill the game. New York *****s still rapping like it’s 1999-2001. Man times have changed and *****s ain’t feeling that New York ***** no more and the way things are going I don’t think New York will be able to claim it’s way to the top again. Bottom line T.I., Jay-Z, Weezy,Kayne and the hottest rappers in the game right now which all have had platinum success.Jimmy probally never went gold. Why should he be on swagga like us??? Sell some records 1st dirt ball cause the rest of the US ain’t feeling ya brah!!!

  55. Oshie ("Oh, you're Jewish? That's cool, so was J.C.")

    LMWAO @ Rozza.

    He should try his hand at acting. I can see him in Orbit gum commercials, or Old Spice.

  56. Golaif

    wow…im talkin bout this is prolly one of the worst rappers to ever get acknowledged…what i dont understand is..where they supposed to consider jim jones? honestly..he has NEVER i repeat NEVER killed a verse b4..*****s only get him on a song because they know sum1 who knows him and he has had a lil fame so it might benefit them..no one has ever(or shouldnt have ever) expected him to him to make a song better..NY its over (hell imo “Ballin” was quite Soulja boyish)

  57. Oshie ("Oh, you're Jewish? That's cool, so was J.C.")

    Naw, it’s not over for NY. It’s over for Jim Jones once someone throws some Irish Spring in his direction.

  58. Haalllllaaaa!

    Capo what kind of bull***** is that. How you gonna call somebody a swagger jacker an call your self Capo ain’t that some itlaian *****. These pickaninny head mother*****ers ain’t no gotdamn italians.

  59. hey

    Jim Jones, Boo get a hold of urself. I love Dipset forever- (espec Cam) but u are not that relevant I never liked you on any of the Dip Immunity verses. Dame Dash could rap better than you and he don’t even rap “what you thought I was gon rap–Neva!”

    -Dame Dash


  60. sorry Jim, dips were wearing regular sized urban clothes (which yall need to go back to) before Kanye and his kind came along (see Lupe, Kanye, etc…).

  61. MrJones&ME

    1st off, Y’ALL THE DAYM HATERz!

    Don’t act like Jim aint have every damn nicca who acknowledges hip hop dressin’ like HIM wearin’ skulls and chains & tattoo wear, etc! Cuz the carbon copy niccas are *****in’ ridiculous in da streets! (GOD, I hope Jim got some stocks in Ed Hardy and True Religion)

    Even IF he stole the style from white boys in Vegas, he STILL brought it to Hip Hop and er nicca ***** rode! Jay Z was even rockin’ hoodys with skulls! CMON! GIVE CREDIT WHERE ITS DUE!

  62. MrJones&ME

    If anybody don’t fit on that track it’s Kanye. Don’t ***** me up, I luv me some Yeezy, but he aint got NO more swag than Jim. SORRY! Ye’s a LAME.

    And if ANYONE LOOKS GAY (in PERSON) IT’S KANYE. HE LOOKS SOOOO DAMN GAY IT’s *****in’ SCARY!!! Makes ya GayDar scrEEM! Narrow ***** waistline & silky scarf on the neck. Y’all must’ve neva seen HIM up close/in ya face while ya talkin shyt bout JIM!

    JIM DON’T LOOK GAY in ya face AT ALL! Pics like this may not do him justice, but AINT NUTHIN’ GAY BOUT JIM. No gay vibe hummin’ when HEs around. NOT AT ALL.

    And since Jay’s on top of the WORLD, why does HE belong on a track with T.I. or Weezy his daym self? That’s a grown ***** man playin’ with some kids.

  63. BLACK POWER

    “I DONT WEAR SKINNY JEANS CAUSE MY KNOTS DOT FIT” – JAY Z (JIMMY KNOWS JAY SENT THAT TO HIS *****GOT *****) & THE ***** WANNALOOK LIKE YOU *****?


  64. BOTTOM LINE JIM YOU ARE NOT UP THERE WITH TI AND I AM NOT A BIG TI FAN BUT I KNOW U AINT AT THE TOP OF THE LADDER YOU STILL TRYING TO GET THE LADDER OFF THE TRUCK SO JUST CHILL AND STOP HATE’N IT IS NOT YOUR TIME YET OR MAYBE NOT

  65. DieVerse

    Jimmy dont smoke his sense away…wtf? is he serious? why would they put him on the track he’s not hot!

    BALLIN is the only hot track this dude ever had, before that dude was hungry.

  66. Always Cl*****y

    He is really begging for attention! Nothing is worse than a man who acts like a female & talk about other guys. Just do you and it will speak for itself!

  67. pic*****o

    who cares?

  68. Just say it

    First off, Jim Jones needs to get his facts straight and pull his pants up because he’s truly letting the ladies know exactly what he’s lacking. Being someone who has been in the business for years and years…it’s the GAY BOYS that gave the rappers the fashio to “TRY” and rock all the top designers and start wearing clean clothes, braid designs and matching outfits. And for any ofyou who think you know better than me, any and every successful artist has a gay man or women as a part of their styling crew. But then again, Jim may have a point that he did creat his own style (as wack and broke as it is), because I did say every “SUCCESSFUL” artist.

    you flew high

    yo rep is lie

    now yo ***** is

    FALLIN!!!!


  69. lmao @ him thinking he’s even could be on the same level as Kanye, Jay-Z, Wayne & TI. he’s jst being salty because he wasn’t even THOUGHT of when it came to this song . he’s acting like a girl , crying for no reason ; its sickening.

    jst like weezy said & take his advice “stop hating on a *****, that is a WEAK emotion the lady of a *****” .

  70. Yvonne

    STOP!!!!!!!..what is wrong with you people.

    This is suppose to be a blog about the trial of OJ Simpson and what your input was either pro or con. ThIS blog started out that way an ended up with somthing totally differnet.

    Then you wonder why blacks are alway getting the short end of the stick.

    Instead of sticking together we tend to go against each other at the least bit of negative feedback we get from each other.

    Don’t you think the white races in power see that?

    They see our weakness and play on that. They know how how to play us against ourselves better than we do.

    The only way they get to us is by US letting them on to our stuipidy of downing one another on trival issues.

    STOP, STOP, STOP!!!!!!!

  71. Encyclopedia Brown

    If anyone set the Rock n’ Roll style it was Juelz. Don’t *****ody care about Jim “One Hit Wonder” Jones

  72. HarlemWorld

    Jim Hones is swagger jacking Camron for even trying to be a rapper in any case. Take it from me… I am from Harlem.

  73. HmmREALLY

    um hasn’t PHARRELL been rocking that rock/rap swag since…idk forever.

    fall back jim. fall back…

    preferably into a tub of soap and water.

  74. so *****in' rude

    i agree wit’ jim on dat one. he was the one who made folkz started dressin’ like dat. wit’ the skull ***** and all. weezy jock’d his swag and for him bein’ on the t.i. itz not urgent.

  75. Notahater

    maybe if just looked a little cleaner. he looks like he stinks of old booze, funk and stale newports.


  76. This *****ody has lost his mind. And, he does look funky and not in a good way.


  77. JJ did not create that style. White boys been wearing that look for years. Now, this rapper comes along and names it his style. Bull***** at it’s finest. Be more original. Design some ***** if you want to make it yours. Now he’s a style stealer and he’s mad. Hilarious!!! Ghetto madness at it’s best.


  78. Jim Jones get ya dirty a** outta here..You sound like a real live trick…You and the rest of your crew (Dipset) is irrelevant to music, life, the world all that..You ain’t got no swag and perhaps dirty swag is not an option to rap about..Mark A** Busta…

  79. BKLYNZ OWN

    lol.i rate jimmy….but NEGRO PLEASE!!

  80. Tee

    Jim Jones are you freggin serious. I smell your stink dirty whenever I see your face anywhere in the media. You’re track record is wacky, the style sence in Tacky, everybody is rocking T-Shirt and jeans. The only thing rock and roll about your swag is the sweat that seems to always be dripping from your stink *****. You’re never shaved, your hair is always ratty and if it wasn’t for a shiny belt and denim and lets not forget the Good “Ol Tee, you would be DONE! Aint *****ody checking for you boy, you sounds like a little boy crying on the sideline b/c you wasn’t picked to play. Remember only the best gets picked. Sit ya whack ***** down. See following Dame got you dismissed so now you can play the sidelines like him.

    Caio!

  81. ~n3k@ b()()~

    it had jay z, weezy, ti, and kanye on da track? tell at ***** he aint on they level. If it wasnt 4 ballin *****ody would’ve heard of at dirty *****

  82. barb

    In his defense, maybe he misunderstood…someone needs to let him know that it’s “Swagga Like Us”, and not “Stagga Like Us”, because he must’ve been drunk out of his mind if he EVER thought for one second that he deserved to be on THAT song with THOSE guys.

    He shouldn’t have been allowed within 30 miles of the recording of that song. His wackness could’ve seeped and contaminated the TALENTED people that are on the track.


  83. poor poor jenny is mad because he has no friends or *****ociates in the game right now accept for juelz ((((((crying while wiping tears))))))):(

    grow up “jenny”jones!!!!!


  84. :(

  85. I can't say....

    he so dam nasty looking!!! i hope the hood hoes on 7th & 8th ave are not sleeping this disease infested lookin man…

  86. Jaye

    He stay looking dirty. I feel like I need to wash my hands just looking at his picture.

  87. Jaye

    @Yvonne…what are you talking about? Sis, I think you posted in the wrong section ’cause your self-righteous rant came complete from out of nowhere.

  88. roe ski love

    Not that I follow all this rap war bull*****, however I do know that Jim stink Jones is not a legend is not going to be a legend so he needs to sit his one hit wonder ***** down and start working on a new record. Besides that, Ballin is not a rap cl*****ic nor will anyone know who JJ is 10 years from now.

  89. Gucci

    at the end the day ……….lil wayne jim and elz has the same style…rock n roll …..jayz has a totally diff style(that I dont care for) might at add, but everyone has their own opinion so …it is what it is….me ….im a rocker chick so i love their swagg …and to be honest they did start a trend…..yeah hes a lil wack for what he said but ***** he was asked a questiona and he gave a detailed answer…………I still love you jimmy….dipset ***** ..skulll gang….oh yeah and max b got the same swagg so what eva……

  90. Gucci

    oh yeah and everybody cant be a legend …..some people are more blessed than others, but ill take his money cars jewlz and all that other ***** cuz regardless of what he got enough …..real talk….don betta than most of us


  91. So, you need to be fast and thoughtful also to make out the song. Don’t listen to the song like ” prison always wins “. The song is available in the whole mainstream.

  92. tomica

    I don’t know if it is bossip, but every picture of him he looks dirty. I guess he is hating like this because he is trying to sell some records, but that has been done also. He is not 50. He needs to stop. Maybe he was not forgotten, maybe that is just who T.I. wanted on his song. Not everyone can be invited to your party. Get over it. Also, there has been so much talk from him and Dash about the beef between Jay and Kayne. I though that was addressed when it happened. What is there problem. They are stupid.
