Remember that beef between Jim Jones and Jay Z? It happened around the time that “Ballin” was ruling the music airwaves. The back and forth banter between these two led to some nice diss tracks, Jim Jones signing a Jay Z clone named NOE, and classic line Jay Z said during an interview that still resonates today when you hear it.
