Nas clowned Jim Jones in a resurfaced video from 2005, disregarding the concept that the Dipset rapper ever deserved a lyrical response, simply as their renewed rivalry has reignited on-line.
“Think about placing pen to paper to put in writing about him,” Nas stated to a laughing crowd within the throwback clip, which has been making the rounds once more following Jones’ latest claims that he’s extra impactful than Nas.
The Queensbridge icon didn’t cease there. “I’m not anxious to listen to the Jim Jones diss report,” he added, explaining that Jones by no means made his friends “nervous” the way in which rappers like Infamous B.I.G., Tupac Shakur, Canibus and Eminem did.
“You needed to go onerous in opposition to rappers like them,” Nas stated.
He continued roasting Jones with a smirk, saying, “However these n#####, like a Jim Jones,” earlier than an viewers member interrupted with, “Who the f### is that?” Nas didn’t miss a beat: “Precisely.”

The clip resurfaced simply days after Jones stirred up debate by claiming on the “Joe and Jada” podcast that he has extra hits than Nas and is extra related to youthful listeners.
His phrases lit up social media and led to a tense back-and-forth with Shannon Sharpe on the “Nightcap” podcast.
Sharpe didn’t maintain again, asking, “What have been you smoking if you stated you’re higher than Nas?” whereas defending Nas’ legacy.
Jones clapped again, mocking Sharpe’s fashion and doubling down on his claims.
Regardless of the heated exchanges, Jones later admitted on Instagram that his Nas comparability was a part of a calculated transfer to spice up his streaming numbers.
The unique clip of Nas dismissing Jones was reportedly filmed in 2005. In the course of the early 2000s, Dipset regularly took pictures at Nas on mixtapes and radio freestyles.
