Cam’ron has candidly explained why it would be difficult for him and Jim Jones to rekindle their friendship.

The two former Dipset members have spent the better part of the last fifteen years locked in a cycle of diss tracks, public feuds, and fractured ties.

During an appearance on the Roc Solid podcast, Cam’ron reflected on their turbulent relationship and praised Jones for his entrepreneurial spirit, despite their longstanding issues.

“Look, I always wish Jim the best. I hope he does well. He came a long way.”

Killa Cam continued, “This is my man who couldn’t rap that turned into my hype man that turned into an artist, directing videos. So his hustle is impeccable. We put out our first mixtape, 2001. The album came out in 2003. 2001 to, let’s say, we broke up 2007, 2008… A six, seven-year run. Our first reunion after we broke up was in 2010. If we can’t get it together now…”

Cam traced their history, noting that Dipset had a successful run from 2001 to 2007 before their initial fallout.

He highlighted the struggles of reconnecting after so many years of disputes, saying: “The reunions and arguments and fighting, it’s been 15 years. The run was only seven years. We got 15 years of disputes longer than the run. I’m never going to say never. But at the end of the day, the disputes, it’s 15 years old, and the run was seven years old. I don’t know if it can ever go right, you know?”

Adding, “He got records dissing me earlier this year. I don’t really pay it no mind, people send it to me. But he put a song out called ‘Frienemies’ in [2009]. 17 years of diss records towards me. I don’t give a fuck.”

Jim Jones has similarly expressed doubts about reconciling with Cam’ron. In an interview with Ebro earlier this year, Jones dismissed the idea of brotherhood between them, stating: “Nah, it’s definitely no brotherhood. The brotherhood been over damn near since [The Diplomats]. That was where the brotherhood was at.”

While leaving room for the possibility that relationships can change over time, Jones made it clear that his focus is currently on himself: “Right now it’s about me. I ain’t got time to focus on nothing else and no one else.”
