This is no disrespect to Jim but he would've absolutely ruined their careers, I say no disrespect because he's clearly much older an in a different head space than he was when he was in his late 20s... He's in his late 40s now his business mindset is different after years of fckin up!!!
He’s still the same Jim Jones 😂😂😂
you don't know that. Maybe tho
Facts he prolly would of had them ghost writing for him. The Weekend def would of failed under him he too unique for Jim
He literally said in the video that he probably wasn't capable of getting them to where they are today.
And you ruin everything 😂
They dodged a bullet, Jimmy had Stacks, Max B and Noe, and you dropped the ball.
Facts!!!
Ppl didn't wanna mess with noe. They kept saying he sounded to much like hov. I feel a way about that tho cause noe always snapped in the track
Stop looking at wat he drop an appreciate wat growth an wat he doing now, yall past minded boys
Him having his own label and crew was dif from when he was Head of A&R at a major label. He was praised for his actual corporate work. He just didn’t execute well when it came to his Byrdgang artists.
Bro his artist was tuff too
They wouldn't be successful if they had signed with him...
Dey shole wouldn’t and pro why Dey never talk about it
@zoltananga8872 they wouldent of even got a release... album wise look at maxb. mel maxtrix jah jah etc..
So u saying they not the top rappers because of the music then…. U saying J Cole/kendrick only on top because of the promotion….
The machine makes a difference, obviously their talent is undeniable regardless. Watch how Luka Doncic brand is about to change playing in LA even tho Dallas is a large market.
Thank God for wayne and hov
Usually, people in the music business won’t admit when they overlooked talent but Jim kept it directly on his lack of not looking beyond his own style of music.
💯
He dropped the ball now he struggling
Jim Jones like many New York artist only think about pleasing there block They never think outside there state. They rather try to sign some wack street dude than a guy like Eminem or J Cole.
They only needed a hit in their city!! Make a hit in NYC and you’ll be platinum without your record ever playing on a radio station outside of NYC.
Yea sell $1 million copies and lose out on a guy like Eminem who sold 220 million records world wide. They didn’t take advantage on the fact that artist worldwide wanted to sign with them cause they looked up to NY artists. Now they don’t need them.
Thats what every region does Atlanta aint making music for people outside of Atlanta
LA nigas aint making music for people not from LA Houston makes music for Houston the difference between NY and those other places is that those other places are far more similar so music outside of NY has far more reach
@@juice07x No one cares about Eminen. Only non bllks and outsiders.
@@jamesjacobs-sj2ilfacts. And it’ll be a hit in the UK and Europe cus they follow more NY hip hop.
I was listening to The Weeknd freshman year of college 2011
Likewise
Clearly shows jim cant think outside the box!
Sounds like he clearly said that, himself 🤷🏽♂️
If u have seen Jimmy's mother ud understand
@@Kilo-Kvshdumb statement
He made 20 million in rap which is pretty impressive for a former hype man
@@thekokosho that's why he's not a good businessman till this day. To busy portraying a gangster.
Honest assessment. And he’s speaking on his own experience with these guys .
Max said it best..How Jimmy let the game slip through his hands. You could signed all of them and you had Max and Stack and fumbled trying being the main artist when you could been the boss
I'm 47yrs old. $73,000 biweekly and I'm retired, this video have inspired me greatly in many ways!!!!❤️
How did you do it? Do explain please 😯
My family have been into series of sufferings lately
All thanks to Maria Luisa Clare
After I raised up to 325k trading with her I bought a new House and a car here in the states 🇺🇸🇺🇸 also paid for my daughter's surgery (Joey)
Wow 😱 I know her too
Miss Maria Luisa Clare is a remarkable individual who has brought immense positivity and inspiration into my life.
I started with a miserly $1500. The results have been mind blowing I must say TBH!
I miss Stacks too!!! It was a sad summer when he died!!
Squad Up Stack Bundles was a huge lost Far Rock super lyricist
@TheLieKillaJr On My Soul He was my personal favorites besides Biggie Styles P and Juelz Santana
Capo is definitely a name that's fits
💀 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I wouldn’t have ever told nobody I dropped the ball that many times… ouch!!!
That’s something I’ll take to the grave
a lot of people do tho its not far fetched. people think its some golden information but as an upcoming artist you are essentially a free agent thats willing to sign with maybe any famous artists just to get your shot . realistically anybody can say "somebody brought this guy to me early on". if your'e not signed to anybody then "everybody" can claim to have had a chance to sign you lol
Better for all those guys. Their careers would've went nowhere under Jim Jones. If Stack Bundles and Max B, who were signed to Jimmy, signed with better labels/teams, they both would've went much further. Stack really could've been a star. Super talented lyricist, had the look and "it" factor, and knew how to make songs. Jimmy had that man still stranded in the hood, where he eventualky got killed. Smdh.
Jim Jones Is A 50 Year Old YN 🥷😂
Lmaooooo😂
That’s not a bad thing he’s survived a long time and is still youthful, he’s living a good life that’s what it’s supposed to be like! You’d rather him being 50 and run down looking old and frail? Yall some haterssssssss! Jesus 🙃
We started hearing bout the weekend in 2011 with those mixtapes he was droppn.. house of ballons n few more
Crazy that he was around Kanye while he was changing the game and still didn’t understand what Drake and Cole could do. I doubt that deal would have went down for any of them. Don’t think he had the money or clout at the time.
He didn’t 😂😂😂 he barely had it but it’s dat NY mindset Dey have cause it’s funny cause nobody was bumping his music dis way but ni he could have signed some da biggest artist in da world 🤦🏾♂️ wen let dem tell it he was a hype man
@purrfitazitgetz3365 I will never stop talking about the NY mindset 😆 It's like they can't comprehend that there is a world outside of the boroughs.
Rotten Apple Mentality
@@dually81 you giving to much credit they can't comprehend its a world beyond their projects let a lone the boroughs.
@JohnW-xv4on my bad my bad. . . forgot they always talk'n bout "my building this" and "my auntie building that"
@purrfitazitgetz3365 that's cap. Jim was one of the biggest artist at that time. He had a movement. you're hating. you must be from some backwards hic town
Yall can't be mad at Jim for knowing they weren't a fit, he didn't slight them
they weren't a "fit" to pen his raps
Lil Wayne a so called Blood around gangsters and knew to sign Drake, as well as Houston big homie!
Hov a G and signed J Cole! So being a gangster is an excuse.
@@TheRenegade718 exactly!!!
@TheRenegade718 do you really think Wayne was doing the behind scenes work with Drake and Nicki Cash money Universal was the machine Jim was Independent and street active vs Wayne being a big time Blood 😂😂
@@capricekobain2996 what’s your point?
Nothing wrong with what he’s saying and he’s being honest
Facts
Cash gave him a demo he never listened to, he never met the man he coulda kept that 😂
Signing to Jim jones is like signing to Gucci mane IYKYK ‼️
You sound stupid
Wayne was the only artist to put people on in that generation
Rick Ross did too
Jay? Ross?
I don't care what the say about Jimmy he one of the real one
Real
Jimmy too infatuated with street mentality and gang lifestyle. That’s why he 50 still looking for his next hit not even realizing he would be better off signing an artist that don’t even indulge in that gang shit.
True
At least he’s being honest with it
No Jim.. YOU starting hearing about the Weeknd in 2017 😂
I first head of the weekend In 2011 with the morning.
You got the right name CAP
This is misleading, he would’ve signed them to a PRODUCTION deal, Jim never had his own label to sign a artist, that’s why he used max and stacks
In street terms he aint want them to be bigger than him and they still is anyway😂
The Weeknd had a crazy following by 2012.
2:09 I’m tired I don’t fell like talking about that. The weekend I could have signed the weekend 😂. This dude is a 50 year old gang member, why do we condone such idiots, our youth look at these fools.
Stacks Max Cole Drake Weekend that shit would’ve been crazy
Bro threw weekend cd out the window 😅😂
and by that, in his mind, he could have signed him. Isnt that crazy. It would make it sound like everyone else couldnt have signed him. Jimmy is capping as usual . You cant sign people when you are broke and running a label sint the same as being an artist. Where would Jim get that money to push an artist unless he was going to cosign with another label and get the bonus and bounce
Jim definitely can't break no artist
God don’t lie
Time don’t lie
Man this was like missing every free throw you took.
It's rare to surpass the person that signs you. It was probably for the best. At least he's grown in mindset 🙏
Rest well stack bundles 🙏🏼 🐐
Apparently, everyone had a chance to sign Drake, Cole, Weeknd, Nicki etc. Just cos a take come across you doesnt mean you had the chance. These people aint got the Dollar to sign 7/8 figures, espec in those days.
Maybe I missed something since I'm not a Dipset fan but when did Jim Jones ever had his own label? I thought Cam'rom was the big name in the group and that Jim Jones was basically the Murphy Lee of Dipset.
Exactly this man was signed to Koch at the time 50 was call Koch the graveyard of hip hop 🤣🤣
Cam after the beginning of 06 kinda fell back a bit (his mother had a stroke and he was taking care of her). Jimmy stepped up, they also had beef behind the scene but it wasn't public until jim and juelz went on stage with 50
He had Byrd gang around 06/07 and juelz had skull gang they was all little clicks under the dipset umbrella basically juelz made a label for all his homies and Jim made a label for all his homies but all these niggas repped diplomats at the end of the day … FREE MAX B peace
He had a label called Brydgang. Jim had his moment where he was his own full fledged artist and signed a few guys under him.
@@freddycalipari4242yeah. I honestly think he had a ghostwriter also. Dude used to suck. Then got better
None of these artist would have been half of what they are under Jim Jones. Please understand that.
Jimmy why haven’t you released a single Stack Bundles verse since he passed?
Pre-internet? I was online in the 90s the weekend popped off in 2012 0:29
He meant for the people that was really outside
He meant before social media got big and before rappers was getting big off the internet.
2011 house of balloons
@@stevenrodriguez3058ya like 2010-2011
Bro you know exactly what he means. Y’all hate this man that much?
This 🤡 said nobody heard about the weekend until 2017 😂😂😂😂 lol more like 2012
We talking abour ppl who are outside not lil underground internet nerds
@@justsomevideos8101 he was a platinum selling artist. He was a household name lol
Clearly he doesn't keep up with those things like you he's busy living his own life 😂😂😂😂
@@Cavalier-l1f but he could have signed him lol 🙄
WEEKEND WAS POPPIN AROUND 2010'S AROUND THAT PND ERA
as someone who is a fan of jim, its hard to stay a fan. only man who can brag about fumbling the bag lol
He gonna be 60 on the corner in harlem telling stories on how he spent all his money 😅
And they both 100x times bigger than you now literally. Man thats gotta hurt.😂🤣
How u can't remember the day your Man's passed? 😤
Not only the day but year 😂
At least the year ....yeah that suprised me
The Weeknd didn't blow up until 2014 with the song he made for the "Fifty Shades of Grey" movie but he released 3 mixtapes in 2011, and one of his songs featured Drake and that song was put on Drake's second album.
The dudes keep glorifying gang banging. The mess lame fr.
This is why artist can never sign to another artist

“God don’t lie. Time don’t lie.” 💯
Cap ..just cuz you was in the studio with them doesn’t mean ..they would’ve signed to you jimmy
10k for the interview...........
BALLING!
Missing a huge opportunity with someone that eventually became one of the biggest artists out is NOT infusing yourself in history like at all. Thats like saying “I watched Michael Jordan play live back in 96 in his PRIME. It felt great to infuse myself into his history.” WHAT? Hahahaha I love Jim Jones, but WHAT?!?!
They wouldn’t have signed directly to “Jim Jones” they would’ve signed to the label he had an executive position at. Which was Warner brothers or something
Rip Stack Bundles
The weekend been writing songs for artist for decades.. do an interview and ask if he is sad for not being signed by capo
Right weekend co wrote Take Care ds fuc wats that 08 09
Wiki search shows he wrote for 212 artist.. it shows what visionary Jim is not.. he is focused on himself
Jim always tired he needs to make a energy drink
He smokes all day long!!
I respect Jim for keeping it real he owned up to it you don’t see that often
Idk what Jim be thinking …he just be talking
The Weeknd came out 2010 or 11 on Crew Love, 3 years after Jim passed on him. I think Blinding Lights is one of the biggest songs ever. Evrybody he passed on can fill an arena.
He never had an artist blow up under him, So they lucked up not dealing with Jimmy.
Heard of The Weeknd in 2011, when Drake dropped Take Care, track Crew Love
Jim real for recognizing he was short sighted at the time…it takes a lot of fore sight to be a bibby (a street guy) signing someone like juicewrld, someone who wasn’t a street guy. The ability to recognize juicewrld’s ability and skill was bigger than all that tough guy image💯
He talking like he really had a chance. Stop it
He couldn’t sign them because he ain’t got bread like he says. Jimmy a bank loan kinda guy
Listening to this let's me know how much real talent gets left on the table that we may not hear. Think of how many other artists we didn't get to hear because of an industry person like Jim jones
He didn't sign them because he a hater and he was feeling himself‼️
He said too light skinned lmao jimmy is literally a shade darker than drake jcole and the weekend
Only 10k views for jim jones interview 😂 ? In 2025 this shouldn’t even be up . I know the production team mad to take this L .
You didn’t sign people because you was gatekeeping!
The Weeknd def came up in ‘12 off the hills
The Hills didn’t come out till 2015 dumb ass 😂
Times don’t lie - you dig?!
If you want to sign artists got to have broad taste. Cant just go after hood rappers. Those are cool but you want the ones who have mass appeal. Who can go mainstream and make timeless hit records that will live on. Think outside the box.
Sometimes you gotta put the banging MOB Gangsta stuff aside and think about your business & Future if he would’ve signed them he wouldn’t be sitting in that chair doing a cam Capone news interview
He def would have been one of the top music executives signing all that talent.
Everybody in these comments hating on jim but he said the realest shit "God dont lie" & "time dont lie" cant hate on that
Ion feel like talking about it 😂😂😂 I could of signed the weekend 😄😔
😅😅😅
What work Jim jones put in ????? Bruh ain’t put no work in never
Bro really live up to his name, CAPo 😂
It's not just Jim Jones that look over artists that are stars. The whole music industry does it! They're stuck in their ways, rich, big headed and have a bad attitude. They'll only give credit after you've blew up bc you have a name now. That's sad foreal. Black ppl don't help each other man
That's why he is 50 and still dressing like a 21 year old. No growth
🧢o
On Cam 🧢one
Name a less iconic duo 😬
This part right here shows what separates Jim from Cam....
Cam didn't put on any superstars either, just juelz who went gold
The biggest versus already happened it was Gucci Mane versus Young Jeezy
If they would have sign with jim, they wouldn't never made it, and they probably would have die or went to jail like everyone else he had signed
There’s miserable people in everyone comments
These dudes be having Father issues so anytime a man drop the ball within his empire they verbally gun him down the society way
Who DID he sign ? 😂😂
I'm tired I don't feel like talking about that,the weekend...I could have signed the weekend
Showing growth jimmy
He died 07. I was living in Florida when my cuzin Mike from farrock called me with the sad news.
He was scraping everybody he signed anyway 😂😂😂😂 Free the wave
We started hearin about The Weeknd in 11
like us they not like us
HE DONT KNOW YEAR STACKS DIED!??? Jims problem is he was too into just promoting the gangster side of hip hop
"It's not a moment that we not living lavish i dropped the top it was a bit embarrassing " stop playing with jimmy..
Crazy how take credit for talent 🤔
🔥🔥
Why does he have his jacket halfway on???
Out of body experience ??😊
