Jim Jones had some kind words for the late TakeOff as he celebrated his 2022 collaboration We Set The Trends with Migos going gold.
Jim shared a video on Instagram on Thursday (September 12), gleefully pointing out that he’s still receiving medals after two decades in the gaming industry, before revealing that TakeOff brought him the song.
“When you’re talking to a n-gga in 2024 who’s been in this shit for 20 years and just got a gold record, you better check your temperature!” Capo said. “First of all, rest in peace, take off. Rocket, I feel you. I love you, bro. We’re gold medals at this. We’re leading the way, bro. I got you a copy, Unc.” “Tell me to load it up. I’m forever in your debt. Take off, man – I miss you so much.”
In his caption, he added: “Rip TAKE OFF The Great TAKE OFF thnku this gold record ‘We Set The Trends’ ft THE MIGOS has officially been certified gold @offsetyrn @quavohuncho thnk God is good please Forgive my ignorance, I just had fun with 300 on th floor n I didn’t mean the tag hahahahahaha we did it again.
Good news, Jim Jones is working on a new album called “At the Church Steps,” which will serve as the follow-up to his 2004 debut album, “On My Way to Church.”
Late last month, the Harlem native revealed that he had connected with LP’s legendary civil rights leader Ben Chavis Jr., who had also spoken out about two of Jim’s previous efforts. Over speech.
“I’m bringing you something special, and this may be the last album like this we hear in the digital age,” Jim said on Instagram, recording a video with Chavez in the studio . “On the church steps @drbenchavisjr who has been fighting for our people to show the power of unity since Martin Luther King Jr. marched.”
He continued, “I remember watching the movie Belly and I was so moved by his speech in DMX. It felt like they didn’t give him the script, it felt like he was praying in front of the camera. That one in my life It doesn’t matter what the journey is like when you get to the destination.
In the background of this video, Chavez’s “At the Church Steps” is playing, and he blesses the record in what appears to be the opening song.
