JR Writer on Dipset Breaking Up After Cam'ron's Beef with 50 Cent

Rap stars who lead their cliques usually are the only breakout stars, however, when it came to Dipset, JR Writer says Cam'ron made sure to push his ego aside and support his artists. "Once Cam sees Jim and Juelz out the way, he'll be like, 'JR and Hell Rell, come meet me over here. Let's do this photo shoot for this cover, go to the radio kill it, do it like that because these n***** already poppin' so let's get y'all s*** poppin'.'"
With Cam's efforts, JR said he found himself between bidding wars with labels and ended up signing with Koch Records and released his first album History in the Making. "That album was number two in the country. It would've been number one if it wasn't for-rest in peace-Pimp C." JR told DJ Vlad, "It did great numbers. They was happy over [at Koch Records]."
In this interview, JR opens up about recording his first song in front of Jay Z, seeing the tension between Jay and Cam, how the group drifted apart, and why he received a cease and desist order for using the Dipset logo on his project.

[@Ryu2o4]

No lie, I adored Dipset growing up. Cam’ron was the Paul Heyman of Rap. He knew how to get nigga’z hot. He could turn any negative situation into a positive. When he got shot in that Lambo he did a music video wearing a sling. Ya can’t tell me that wasn’t gangsta. He put nigga’z on. He wasn’t a spot light hog. That legendary freestyle on rap city the basement he was in the back the whole time letting Jones and Juelz live. When they came out on stage with 50 I was crushed. I would have never done that to killa. I would have won with Cam & lost with Cam. You will never see a nigga with that much swag who wasn’t jealous of his own nigga’z. He will never get the credit he deserves. #KILLA

This shit wasnt interesting at all, and he barely explained why or when dipset started to fall apart, or the ''beef'' between Cam and JJ. The 50 part was just a side note, but 50 had pretty much nothing to do with it... The name of the video should have been:: '' JR signing his first deal and getting money'' lmao

[@wavyboysmith718]

camron himself said 50 had something to do with it lol

[@jreel]

50 had a major part in it. Cam saw how disloyal Juelz and Jim was and since those 3 were the original members, it was writing on the wall at that point. 50 was a mastermind in hitting artists in the core without physically touching them. Other than that, it was bad business deals as usual.

[@adrianbatts4498]

Whole Dipset was 🔥🔥🔥 for years everybody did they thing I rode out to the Dips Everyday back then JR I fucked with I bought the Real Album from the store toe support my man bumped it So Much in the car one of my boys complained to me about it The Cam and 50 beef really opened up a lot of Eyes because we say who was really real to Cam and who wasn't

[@MrTruefacts101]

[@newphilmz3605]

Yayo threw some shots at Jim Jones yelling "Boring" backstage when Jim Jones performed We Fly High. Then Jim Jones went on Hot 97 calling Yayo an immigrant and even mocks his dance at the end of the We Fly High Remix music video. But then 50 got Jim Jones on his side once he realized Jim and Cam weren't even cool. And Juelz was cool with Slowbucks and John Depp (Lloyd Banks cousin) so he didn't want to get involved.

[@Lindsy94]

[@alf6670]

Thishad nothing to do with 50

[@madhash83]

Only one part of the video but 50 was a big part of the break up. Jim said he told Cam not to go at 50 because he has the money to play around with ppl careers. Cam even said 50 played divide and conquer with Dipset, when him and Cam went back and forth on Hot 97, Jim and Juelz called in right after telling 5o they had nothing to do with it. I'm sure there were other problems but that beef with 50 was the beginning of the end, what did you hear from Dipset after that beef? Only thing I ever heard was the Governors Island concert with Juelz and Jimmy at 50's concert, lol

[@donking8658]

Jim and Juelz called in right after??????? didnt know that, u got a link?

[@madhash83]

[@tomaschavira1840]

It's really too bad because Dip Set had 9 Trey Bloods wearing pink in NYC, running Harlem.. Like Dip Set was the hardest crew in the streets! Even over G-Unit I felt. But 50 Cent fucked them up! I honestly thought Killa Cam was going to outlast 50 but then he went missing to Orlando and Jim & Juelz did the unthinkable and betrayed their Boss (Cam) and tried being cool with G-Unit!! It was disgusting! To this day I have no respect for Jim & Juelz..

[@natsusatsujinki8342]

Bro Cam was a veteran. He'd been out about as long as Jay Z. People tend to think Rocafella was when Cam started. Dipset started on Rocafella. I think Cam was on his 3rd album when he signed to the Roc.
