Jim Jones Goes Savage On Ma$e’s Weight By Saying “He Looks Really Rough”

Jim Jones, the Harlem rapper known for speaking his mind, has recently taken shots at fellow rapper Ma$e in an interview with XXL magazine. Jones didn’t hold back when discussing Ma$e’s appearance, specifically targeting his weight. “Ma$e needs to go on a diet,” Jones said straightforwardly. “He needs to get his life together. He should see a doctor for a check up because he looks really rough.”

Jones was just getting started and didn’t shy away from making more harsh comments. “His body looks out of shape,” he added. “He looks big around the neck and his waist is a mess. I’m body shaming him because he needs to get it together and hit the treadmill, do some push ups, do something! Especially if he’s going to mess with me.” The two rappers have a complicated history with some past disagreements in the Harlem music scene. While Ma$e has mostly been quiet about the recent drama, Jones seems unbothered and is willing to take things personal. As of now, Ma$e has not responded to Jones’ strong remarks.

It’s uncertain if he will ignore the comments or fire back, but Ma$e is known for not staying silent for long. Given the current tensions in the New York hip-hop scene, this exchange could stir up old rivalries. Jim Jones is recognized for his bold personality and straightforward opinions, and his recent remarks show he’s not concerned about hurting anyone’s feelings, especially those of Ma$e. Fans are eagerly awaiting Ma$e’s reaction. Will he respond, or will he choose to take the high road? Either way, this rivalry between these two Harlem rappers is heating up.
