Jim Jones is opening up about the rift between his Dipset brothers amid his issues with Cam'ron.

The Harlem rapper stopped by The Breakfast Club on Thursday morning, February 27, to talk about his upcoming album At The Church Steps. Jones said the direction of the album changed a few times while he recorded it due to what was going on in his life like his recent back-and-forth with Cam. Later, DJ Envy mentioned Jones' role in Dipset and asked when the group began to split apart. Jones said he still considers The Diplomats his "brothers" but he's not focused on them right now.

"I'm not concerned about that right now," Jones said. "I'm concerned about this album dropping. I got other things going on. I'm concerned about Jim Jones and what Jim Jones got going on. I've done a lot for Diplomats sake and for the sake of the people and the fans and all that, but nobody does a lot for me and that's part of the problem here. Nobody ever really pulled up for me when Jim Jones need them to pull up, but I pulled up for everybody. So now I gotta pull up for myself. All the other rhetoric I can't even hear no more."

Jim Jones and Cam'ron have been at odds over the past few months. Their issues came to a head last month after Jones went on Justin Laboy's show "The Download" and claimed he grew up with Cam and Ma$e in Harlem. Cam denounced Jones' story and put him on blast during an explosive opening monologue on his sports talk show It Is What It Is. Jones fired back with his song "Jomo," which appears on his upcoming album. Jones continued to rail against Cam during the interview. He called him a "bird" and said he would face Cam in the ring for $10 million.

"I'll box his head off. Where's the ring at?" Jones said. "You getting money right? You doing sports? $10 million right now. Today n***a. I'll catch a flight wherever you at. You with Mayweather and all them? $10 million, I'll met you in any boxing ring. Now go make some jokes about that on your next show. I'll box your head off, you know that. Don't play with me."

Jones also touches on his newfound friendship with Ye. He said Ye recruited him to help him with some fashion decisions, which is why he was spotted with him in Japan last month. Jones also described the moment when he gave him a Diplomat chain and said he made some new music with the Chicago artist. Capo may have been wearing a red "Make Dipset Great Again" hat on, but he said he's not rocking any of Ye's controversial clothing.

Jim Jones' new album At The Church Steps drops this Friday, February 28. Watch the entire interview below.
