Pusha T is finally speaking out about Jim Jones.
When discussing Billboard’s list of the Top 50 Greatest Rappers of All Time, which ranked the Clipse rapper at No. 29, the Dipset rapper said Pusha T was not deserving of being among the GOATs.
“Other than talk about coke that he probably didn’t get himself, what has he done to place himself among the greatest rappers of all time?” During an episode of the Rap Caviar Podcast, Jones inquired.

Jones appeared on “The Breakfast Club” on Friday, where he reinforced his feelings by asking Charmalagne Tha God and DJ Envy if they could rap five Pusha T records.
“You’re not in my top 50,” Jones said, referring to Pusha. “You may be in Charlamagne’s top 50, but you haven’t done much for me in your life.” I never wanted to be like Pusha. “I’ve never experienced a Pusha moment in my life.”

Pusha has yet to respond to Jim’s divisive remarks. On Friday, he shared photos from his performance at Jerry Lorenzo’s Fear of God fashion show at the Hollywood Bowl, where he appeared to be mocking Dipset’s frontman.
“Places they’ll never be, stages they’ll never see…,” he captioned the photo.

Fans also expressed their support for Pusha in the comments section. “Top 50 all time is not up for debate,” one fan wrote, while another added, “I fw Jim Jones but he was outta pocket and definitely out of his league verbally.”
Jones’s support for Pusha could be related to Pusha’s adversary Drake. After bringing The Diplomats on stage during Drake’s show at the Apollo in January, Jones declared Drake the greatest rapper of all time.
