Jim Jones, never one to shy away from expressing his opinions, has made his feelings known about Clipse’s latest track ‘Ace Trumpets’. During an interview at the BET Awards with Bootleg Kev, Jones expressed his disbelief in the song’s supposed greatness.
Jones questioned the track’s value, stating, “What’s so great about it? It’s good in what? The nostalgic value of it? I don’t believe it. I don’t believe it, I don’t believe them.” His criticism didn’t stop there. He went on to admit that he had never listened to Clipse’s music and found it unmemorable.
The rapper, famous for not mincing words, reiterated his stance on Twitter, maintaining his skepticism of the song’s authenticity. “What’s so good about the song ??? I don’t believe it. I don’t just believe them in their songs,” he tweeted.
Pusha T, one half of the Clipse duo, has not yet responded to Jones’s latest comments. However, this isn’t the first time Jones has taken shots at Pusha T. Previously, he voiced his disagreement with Pusha T’s inclusion in a ‘top rappers of all time’ list.
Jones questioned Pusha T’s place in the rap pantheon, disparaging his contributions beyond his lyrical prowess. He critiqued, “What has he done that puts him in the greatest rappers of all time? Besides talk about cocaine that he probably didn’t get himself. He could rap his ass off but what has he done? Nobody has dressed like him. Nobody want to be like Pusha T. I don’t remember nothing.”
In response to Jones, Pusha T fired back with lyrical bites of his own, using a track premiered at Louis Vuitton’s 2023 fashion show to call out Jones. Pusha delivered lines that were pointed and personal, emphasizing the unresolved tension between them.
While this unfolds, a new rivalry appears to be brewing. Pusha T has recently sparked tension with Travis Scott, launching verbal attacks on the Clipse single ‘So Be It’ and continuing the spat in interviews.
The beef between Jim Jones and Clipse continues to simmer, fueled by Jones’s dismissive critique of their latest work.
