Joseph Guillermo Jones II, better known by his stage name Jim Jones, is an American rapper, record producer and record executive. He is a founding member of the hip hop collective the Diplomats, which he formed in 1997 with fellow Harlem native Cam'ron.
Following the commercially successful release of the group's debut album Diplomatic Immunity, Jones released his debut solo album, On My Way to Church, independently to moderate success. His second and third albums, Harlem: Diary of a Summer and Hustler's P.O.M.E., both peaked within the top ten of the Billboard 200. The former's release coincided with Jones landing an executive position in A&R for the independent record label Entertainment One Music, while the latter was preceded by the single "We Fly High," which peaked at number five on the Billboard Hot 100. The latter also spawned a remix featuring T.I., Diddy, Birdman and Young Dro, received platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America, and led him to briefly sign with Columbia Records.
