The Diplomat's Career Was FUN, FLASHY And A DISAPPOINTMENT! What Stunted Their Growth?

  • Camron, Jim Jones, Juelz Santana and Freaky Zeaky. The Diplomats (also known as Dipset) Formed in 1997
    The diplomats. One of Hip hop most well known and well respected groups of all time. If there were any rap group that capitalized early in their careers and made somewhat of the most of their influence it was dipset. Together they're cultural icons that were in control of shaping the direction of hip hop at one point in the early 2000s. Their mixtapes and full length projects, highlighted by the series “Diplomatic Immunity” 1 and 2 led their ascendance and received high praise at the peak of their run, but became a quick climax, that in just a few years was realized it would be peak of where together they could take their unique sound. Separately they all had success, and also a chance at being bigger than they eventually became. They made magic as a collective, and are still relatively relevant today, but it always feels when their name is brought up they didn’t quite hit the mark. The problem that led to Dipset actually falling short by all accounts was actually just that. Everything not effectively coming together to at least seal the lid on a great career. Just one that has been stunted at crucial points, and here are 3 of the biggest reasons I think this happened. Legends in the game, yet under delivered in the grand scheme.

    Cam ain’t the blame for dipset’s downfall. He stated that his mother was sick during the 50 beef so he fell back & Jim told him he wanted to fake beef but cam said that would confuse the fans. He also pointed out that Juelz was lazy & was hooked on lean then he asked Cam to release him. If cam is the blame then why was Vado poppin when Juelz was nowhere to be found? Jim took Stack’s style & beefed with Max when Max got him hot. Jim today is nice now but he’s really the blame for the group’s downfall. As for the verzuz, them niggas never fucked with each other

No proper label to market them to their particular audience, a delay or a travesty in the makings of their debut albums with little budgets, or simply them being limited in their range with their artistry.

I think the only true disappointment was juelz.. he had potential but kinda fizzled.. cam is a legend.. and jim jones went kinda far for someone who didnt even start out as a rapper and is still relevant til this day..

    THIS WAS A STRETCH MY GUY. If you weren’t outside in the early-mid 2000s, you inherently don’t understand. It was more than music. Cam was like a supervillain in the comic book universe of rap, and every member of his team was entertaining in their own way. You had to know and respect a certain wavelength to “get it.” Plenty of people didn’t and still don’t (as evidenced by this video), but that’s ok it’s not a bad look for you, it just means they weren’t for you.
    They got bodied on verzuz, but comparing them to the LOX is like apples to orange soda. Now you have a bunch of people who are too young or just never got it that are coming out of the woodwork to give props to the LOX, which is cool, but it shouldn’t be at the expense of the Diplomats’ wild unique legacy. That’s some fuck shit, but I guess not very surprising given how stupid the average hip hop fan is.

    Well Dipset cheapened their product. Cam'ron's "Come Home With Me" had quality production from Just Blaze , as well as their in-house production Heatmakerz (even they too would give less production as time went on) . By the time "Purple Haze" came out, majority of production were done by up-and-coming or entry level producers. The beats were weaker in an effort for Cam'ron to pocket as much of the advance money as possible. The raps became very nursery , and the effort in story-telling and seriousness was near gone

    2:14 - 2:30 was a bar and represents the issue with dipset. Seeing Dipset get embarrassed like that was like seeing the cool kid in high school all fucked up in they 30/40s. In high school so many dudes were trying to act like Camron and Dipset.

    I never was a fan of Dipset. I checked out from CamRon after Confessions Of Fire. The Dipset imo spent to much time trying to be fly rather than putting out music that's worth a damn. I remember at one point they were trying to compare them to Wu-tang. I was like...... STOP IT ! Anyway nice stunned growth video.
