Jim Jones Shuts Down The Clipse “Ace Trumpets” I Don't Listen to Their Music"

Jim Jones is downplaying the Clipse critically acclaimed new single, “Ace Trumpets.” In a recently surfaced interview clip with Bootleg Kev at the 2025 BET Awards, the Harlem rapper made it clear he has no interest in playing nice or pretending to be impressed by the Clipse’s latest effort, which has been praised by fans and hip-hop heads for its lyricism and production. Drama started with Jim Jones and Pusha T from a 2023 interview on Spotify’s RapCaviar Podcast, where Jones questioned Pusha T’s place in top rapper discussions and took several veiled shots at his authenticity. That sentiment hasn’t changed much. “I’m ready for all things, man. Shout out to Pusha, shout out to that guy. Shout out to the Clipse, congratulations on whatever they got going on,” Jones said in a seemingly cordial tone—before quickly shifting gears. When Bootleg Kev asked Jones if he liked “Ace Trumpets,” Jones replied bluntly: “No, but shout out to them,” before questioning, “what’s so great about it?” As Kev tried to explain his admiration for the song, calling it “so good,” Jones fired back with disbelief: “It’s good? It’s good?” and mocked the idea that the record was anything more than a nostalgia play. “It’s good in what? In [the] nostalgic value of it?” he quipped. Jones didn’t stop there. Continuing to dismiss both the track and the Clipse’s persona, he doubled down on his belief that their image doesn’t match their reality. “I don’t believe it, I don’t believe them. But that’s a whole ‘nother story, I don’t wanna downplay nobody’s craft or their music, I wanna uplift everybody and things like that, ya dig? But I don’t listen to their music, I never have. I can’t recall too many records that I can remember.
