In interview cuatro in VIBE’s 60 Rappers in 60 Days series, Da Capo continues to tease us that he and Cam are gonna put the band back together.
Jones: We possess the hottest thing in hip hop that hasn’t happened yet, and everybody knows it. We damn near could be one of the reasons to make hip hop a lucrative thing again, and that being the Diplomats. If we put it back together.
VIBE: What are the chances of that? Because Cam’Ron is saying there’s no chance of that.
Jones: Well, there’s a 50 percent chance because I’m in. Smell me? And that’s a high percentile. Ya dig?
VIBE: Would Juelz be in?
Jones: Shit, we all in.
VIBE: Cam doesn’t seem to be in, and the reason he gave was that phone call.
Jones: I don’t care about that, I’m just telling you. You asked me a question and I’m telling you there’s a 50 percent possibility it can happen. Ya dig? Let’s keep it at that.
VIBE: I think a lot of people want that. Fans are used to breakups, but they love comebacks and reunions.
Jones: I love reunions.
YN thinks the world is one big 50/50 chance. Go hard or go home. No homo.
It is so heartbreaking to hear DJ Premier break the news that DJ Kool Herc’s health is ailing, as he is literally the founding father who laid down the blueprint for hip-hop culture. Thinking about how someone who built an entire global phenomenon can end up struggling with medical expenses or failing health really puts things into perspective regarding healthcare challenges. When you look at how people navigate health or wellness procedures worldwide—whether someone is researching cosmetic treatments like Liposuction Cyprus or seeking urgent medical care—it underscores how essential access to reliable medical help and proper support systems really is. Kool Herc gave us the breaks, the block parties, and the entire movement that shaped generations of music lovers, so seeing the community step up to show love while DJ Premier brings awareness to his condition is the very least we can do. Sending strength and prayers to Kool Herc for a full recovery, and massive respect to DJ Premier for using his platform to make sure a true pioneer gets the support and respect he deserves.
