Last week New York City had its first exciting mainstream Hip-Hop moment in quite a while when Cam’ron decided to call up Hot97 while 50 Cent was having an on-air interview and flex a little muscle. Having spoken with 50 quite a few times myself I know he’s a witty guy, but apparently Cam took offense to something 50 said, called in, and got to talking about album sales. It was revealed G-Unit’s Lloyd Banks has only sold 300,000 copies of his latest release, Rotten Apple, while Dip Set member Jim Jones’ Hustler’s P.O.M.E. is also at that number, but, unlike Banks, Jones is doing it independently, making a heck of a lot more money per album. 50 didn’t take kindly to this and the next day released a dis track and video. A day after that Cam had his reply recorded. The content of the songs and video is rife with violent imagery, so, hoping for a peaceful resolution, I sat down with Dip Set’s Duke Da God to find out exactly how far this beef is going to go.
