Jim Jones is calling out Tony Yayo after the G-Unit rapper questioned Jay-Z's loyalty to his longtime friend and Roc-A-Fella artist Memphis Bleek.

Jones addressed Yayo's remarks while sitting down with Bleek on a new episode of Artist 2 Artist. The controversy began when Yayo argued in a recent interview that Jay-Z doesn't do enough to "take care" of the people around him, specifically referencing Bleek and his career.

Bleek dismissed the claims while talking to Capo, saying he never depended on Hov for success, nor does he need him to go on tour. Jones then quickly jumped in, directing his words straight at Yayo.

"Yayo smoke hard coke. You look like you need to be taken care of n***a, you look like you need to go to the dentist, you look like you need to brush your teeth," Jones said. "You look like you need hygiene n***a. You look like you need help. Tell your man 50 to send you an ounce or something. You might need two ounces, n***a."

Jones continued, "Paid in Full movie. I got a G for every bump on your face, n***a, and I promise you that, n***a. I promise you that, n***a. Peon, you broke n***a. You know I got it n***a, what's up. The bag is up! The bolsa!"

Bleek also chimed in, "Ain't nobody taking care of n***as over here. ... N***as deserve it. They need to hear this shit cause they're bugging out here. All these n***as worrying about who taking care of who. We take care of we."

The Harlem rapper made it clear that he didn't appreciate Yayo speaking on Bleek's relationship with Jay-Z, suggesting that Yayo should focus on his own situation rather than create narratives about other artists.

The back-and-forth with Yayo is just the latest in a string of feuds Jones has been involved in this year. He recently spoke on his long-running issues with Max B during an episode of his podcast Let's Rap About It, and he made it clear he's not interested in a reconciliation.

"I may forgive, I don't forget," Jones said. "And even if I forgive, I'm not here to make anybody feel comfortable ... I don't give a f*ck about what nobody do. I'm not actively pursuing nothing but this money."

Jones has also been trading shots with Cam'ron, his former Dipset partner, after Cam brought 50 Cent onto his YouTube show Talk With Flee and discussed Jones' appearance with G-Unit in 2007, stirring up old disputes.
