let's talk dipset... where's killa cam?!

everyone knows we roll with dipset no matter what but also wanted to point out some factual and subjective info on them dudes.

so if you're up on your shit, you may have noticed that the don of the set himself cam'ron has been missing in action for forever it seems. first he "showed up" and then took off in a white minivan at our urb may cover shoot (this is back in march) what was suppose to be a cam, jim jones and juelz santana cover ended up as juelz, jim and dukedagod (main a&r/mixtape king at diplomats). cam was about to drop an album so it was weird that he avoided getting down for a cover.

so the album drops but there's no press, tv appearances, shows, release parties, NOTHING (record still debuted at #2 which was solid). nothing to follow the relatively strong debut considering the climate of the cd sales....

now it's the capo's turn so mr jones himself has been runnin around doing press, shows, and just gettin him and dipset out there. obviously dude scored the hit of the year with BAAALIN' and even got under jay-z's skin (take that hov) so we see that jim is doing his thing. while juelz has been out in the public supporting jim's album (from BET hiphop awards to 106 n park to the album release party in NY), no one's been able to spot camron at any of these functions.

hmmm. we know cam and jim are homies for life since childhood... we know he's behind the capo 100%. we just get the feeling that cam's still on some r kelly - paranoid as fuck - stay in my crib tip. again cam didn't do any press for his own album.... now missing out on his homie jimmy doin it big??

this shit is reminiscent of some godfather story line. the don gets a hit on him... gets shot a few times and survives the hit... while the young in charge (juelz) makes his mark, capo waits his turn and how dude's runnin wild takin over the game ?!

we certainly hope that jimmy doesn't try to end (we don't mean literally by the way) the boss' reign cuz cam'ron is still one of the illest/funniest/most clever rapper out there. however, this story is only getting better as even jay-z is about to get shook by the one eyed capo status himself.

kingdom come? nah... kingdome done homie...

we still baaallin!!!
