Video: This Is Jim Jones Preview (Chapter 1)
From DrJays.com Boss Lady’s writeup of all the chapters:
Chapter 1 sheds light on Jim’s journey from boy to man. It includes childhood pics, memories from his mother Nancy (addicted to crack cocaine when Jim was young), tales of growing up with Dame Dash in East Harlem, his estranged father’s untimely death from HIV/AIDS, his legendary temper, and becoming affiliated with the Bloods as a teen.
As Dame earnestly tells us he “didn’t expect Jimmy to be the guy I passed the torch to”, we see Jim beginning to build serious relationships within the music industry. We’re then given a glimpse into his business acumen with mention of his ventures at KOCH, Asylum Records and Sony BMG; a closer look however at how he actually worked on and sealed these deals would have been appreciated.
Pray IV Reign in stores today.

After he leaves court he’s gonna cop the BAWSE & Asher Roth’s album.

I know this is gonna come off mad ig’nant, but fuck it…
Fashion is gay. As long as I’m clean & I smell good, fuck what I’m wearing. Too much emphasis is placed on labels anyway. I’m just as fly in Mauri’s & Purple Label as I am with a Champion zipup, Levi’s & Foams.
The G makes the clothes, never the other way around. That’s why you got cats chasing other niggas styles, thinking cause they got on a Gucci belt, they got swag.
It don’t work that way.
^
thats the downfall of the game…but there are always gonna be followers…
for niggas like me it was a naturally progression…
i went from rocawear and ecko to polo and tommy to 10 deep and crooks and now im paying more attention to luxury brands…
its just like the shoe game…i went from buying shoes outta footlocker to shoppin at boutiques and buying shit online…
regardless, unless a niggas parents was super young and super rich, cant a nigga tell me he came out the womb rockin polo…its all a progression in taste…
but then u have the niggas who buy fake shit thinkin its real, and it cheapens the shit of niggas like me who actually stack up and be able to go to the stores i want…
just something u gotta deal wit…

can’t believe Jones is really serious with this documentary type shit. smh.
March 24th, 2009 at 8:14 pm
then shit on a brand like Makaveli..
============================
You might as well be wearing a garbage bag with a picture of Pac stapled to the chest.
That shit ain’t a fashion line, it’s a hustle.
^^I’ve seen worse fam..niggas rock Miskeeen and some of that shit look like a nigga threw up on a shirt with a mouthful of ink.
__________________________-
BOTTOM LINE:
I don’t like MOST this new “dressed up” hip hop..hip hop isnt about that to me..hip hop is about makin that old lady cross the street..I don’t want that bitch walkin up to me askin me where I copped my scarf.
The End.
March 24th, 2009 at 8:15 pm
>>^^^ROdenhour our whatever his name is never made a better move..You niggas gon do the same shit to Patron…niggas killed Moet- the original lets brownnose and front in the club champagne
^1.) All alcohol is poison so I don’t see how or why that should even be up for debate as to WHICH poison we decide to destroy our vital organs with.
2.) The few hiphop acts who came out with liquor a few years ago (Dipset, Lil Flip, JD) couldn’t keep it in the stores due to demand but have since moved on to other ventures.
And for the record, Sizzurp was actually pretty decent.
March 24th, 2009 at 8:16 pm
Jim Jones pretending Cam’Ron didnt exist when he presents his life story is Stalin-level history changing.
March 24th, 2009 at 8:17 pm
no workin person buys 1200 dollar scarves to rock over there head like a dickhead nomad.
===================================
Hey, I wouldn’t do it, but I got a baby girl & bills to pay. I ain’t mad @ them niggas who got “disposable income”.
I’ve never been overly concerned about what the next nigga is wearing.

camo shorts, crew neck tee, old school kicks (and maybe a fitted)… that was pretty much my look for the whole Season and will continue to be so.
Shoutouts to the online Army/Navy store that sell the long camo shorts.
This season I want to have 3 different pair: the ones I already have (which have a slight gray tint to them), plain cargos, and a pair of digital camo

I fucks with all that expensive shit. Ed hardy, prada, gucci, red monkey, real color diamond jewelry. Its not THAT BIG of a deal…but I will say, its THE GOLDEN PASS to talking to that fine ass bitch(and have her take you seriously at the same time btw) mad other niggas be talking about and staring at scared to talk to her. FASHION on men(in my opinion) comes down to two things: 1. Homo 2. Obsession with bitches…personally I fall into the #2 category there. Holla at this comment if you agree(or disagree.)

I’m tired of the niggas walkin’ around with those Prada winter olympic edition kicks that came out in muhfuckin’ 2002! Come on man. Give that shit a REST. They have been bootlegged and niggified beyond comprehension. How you sell them shits in DTLR? Once Fila made their own version I knew it went too far. Now they got the patent leather versions. Ridic.

@ Furius
I realize that’s how hip hop started, we started with Timbs(work boots), stan smiths (european tennis kicks), Kangols(british) back in the day all our shit was Euro…BUT we rocked it on some different nigga shit tho..we put our spin on it..Nowadays these fools just jack from whitey and wear like they do..I hate that part I guess.
But all this shit we doin now….we did it before.
LF:I can afford to spend 600 on a belt with LV on it…but I’d much rather take that 600 and blow it on a oz or two of some weed and a fresh hoodie..or two.

^^half the time a bitch don’t know what the fuck you wearin either, if you rockin mens shit..if you rockin female clothes then of course they know what that is cause they seen it in the boutique.
Majority of niggas that wear that shit be on some ” Oh these my $600 dollar Louis..you better not scuff em” ..That’s when everyone pauses, looks down at his shoes..then continue talkin.
Half that shit look like church clothes.

be clear, I don’t rock anything ‘hipsterish’ or tight or anything like that, but at the same time dog, I’m 30+ now and it’s time to grow up. super baggy jeans and sweaters aren’t the move either.

oh man, I’m glad I never fell into that shit. but most of that shit was bootleg, at least the shit we saw peoplein the street with. I respect Burberry as a luxry brand though. they got some mean fucking light trenches out now with just a little bit of the plaid under the collar. on some grown man shit.
March 24th, 2009 at 8:33 pm
Man…. Lemme put y’all dpwn:
Me and my cuz usta rock JC Penny plain pocket jeans b/c them shits was like 15 bucks and they were durable. We was far from rich. In fact, those were the days when we was out there scramblin for haircut/hoe/beer/party money. The back pockets was sewn on so low that they looked like the pants was saggin’. Kcuf what you heard THAT’S when that saggin’ shit started. I’m NOT sayin’ that my cuz and me STARTED the “saggin’ thing, but it had it’s origins in that style. This was a WHILE ago. Now, at my advanced age, as I see these young bucks with the slim cut jeans, form fittin’ shirts/aka body suits and I can’t be mad. They doin’ they thing but I just couldn’t…
March 24th, 2009 at 8:33 pm
Remember when Burberry was introduced to the hood?
================================
Worst fashion trend in Hip-Hop…ever.
I’d rather rock a pair of Hammer’s parachute pants. That Burberry shit (and all the bootlegged variations) was the worst. Black people love taking some old white shit & completely overdoing it.
Remember Birdman’s fake Gucci & Prada suits?
Dude was a fucking clown for that shit, sitting on all that money & rocking Canal Street fashions.

^That doesn’t make sense though because technically all of that shit was bootleg. You couldn’t buy none of that in any store. People bought the fabric and stitched it on. We’ve been doin’ that for years. Same with Gucci and LV. It was just a new brand to rape so everybody hopped on it.

I remember the racist incident that happened in the Eddie Bauer store in PG County a few years ago that made national headlines. Some dude who shopped there on the reg was told by the managers and security that the shirt that he wore in the store one day was stolen.
After that, I never heard of any minorities shoppin’ in there again.

LOL But then again, it’s cats here that was payin’ 200 bucks for them red money/devil? jeans and evisu jeans and cuttin’ the bottom off the cuff on some islam stuff so w/e w/e. SHIT, my son took a pair of my enyce (good) jeans and didn’t cuff ‘em and ragged out the bottoms of ‘em. I was FLAMIN’ ( Not RuPaul but the Human Torch) Barely wear my “good” clothes but when I do, I want my shit NICE. SMH at me and my son wearing the same sized shit especially kicks.

>>It’s the Cali version of Abercrombie. Same corporation, different theme. At first it was only sold on the West because the gear was made for warm weather. Then they made their way over to the Midwest and East.
yo go to the mall and I dare you to find a white teenager not rockin that shit.
man, I used to fucking wreck Eddie Bauer in my boosting days. good times.

We DID , in a dark day in Philly history, taper our Lee Jeans. Shit was so tapered , we had to put on our socks AFTER our jeans. I am cleansed…

I just think I’m always gonna dress like Russel Simmons( no lisp) do..even at that age..I don’t like tight buttoned up conforming shit…the smif n wesson, rebel, artist that I am won’t allow it right now.
The only times I be wishing i was white..Kid Rock could wear a Tshirt, converse and faded jeans into the white house and no one would even say “look at this nigga”..
I only get jiggy for court appearances.

jesus. that is that philly shit though. what be going through niggas minds?
I think the worst thing we ever did in NY was tucking our jeans into our socks. that was a trend that Yonkers perfected and never wanted to let go for like a decade.

I still do that, depending on the jeans & the kicks I’m wearing. Nothing worse then ruining a good pair of jeans by walking on the backs of em.
