While Cam'ron says the Diplomats haven't yet found a label home for their reunion album, they're still working together and have almost 10 new songs in the can.
"It's a few people that's been getting at us, but the money's not really where we want it to be," Killa Cam told MTV News about label negotiations. "So we'd rather distribute it ourselves until somebody comes with the right amount of money. Jim is using the 'Salute' record as his single, so we'll build off of that. But basically, with the Diplomat thing, everybody is gonna do it, but we got obligations."
Cam'ron was also quick to point out that everyone is on speaking terms, but they all have records they're working on outside of the Dipset project as well.
"Jim got his album he definitely gotta turn in," he said. "[Me and Vado] got this Gunz and Butta thing. Juelz is putting his album together. Nobody wants to stop where they already have contracts and obligations, but we working too. We got eight, nine songs done."
Cam, Juelz, Freekey Zekey and Jim Jones recently released the song "Salute." Cam said Jones spearheaded their first song together in years.
"Jim's got a good work ethic too. His work ethic is crazy," Cam explained. "He's in the studio all the time. I'm in the studio. The producer AraabMuzik is signed to DukeDaGod. Araab went and took Jim some beats. I already had the beat [for 'Salute']. Jim said, 'Let's do something to this.' We got it done.
"It wasn't no big story behind it," Cam added. "He sent me the record, I did it. He went to Juelz's studio, I knocked it out. Jim comes by my crib where the studio at. We sit down for two, three hours, and we go in the basement and knock the songs out. I'm not gonna sit here and act like some spaceship landed or a boat docked. Jim comes by the house, we go in the basement, we smoke, do the song, that's it. We go back in another two, three days and do the same thing."
While there's no concrete date for the Diplomats album, Killa says his and Vado's LP Gunz and Butta should be out around September 28, with a mixtape from the two dropping first. On the album's cover, you see Cam and Vado dressed in suits, standing in a boardroom with the New York skyline behind them.
"At the end of the day, we just hanging on the block, so you see we dressed like whatever," Cam said of the Gunz and Butta cover. "When it's time to get corporate, we'll throw on that suit and tie and go to the penthouse, have a roundtable meeting. We know how to balance the beam. We know how to get street, but we know how to get cleaned up also. That's why we named the album Gunz and Butta, just to let you know: We know our balance."

Freekey Zekey is a man on a mission. As CEO of 730 Dips and also part of The Diplomats, he's got his hands full, but no doubt is taking care of business.
Zekey took time out recently to talk with Major Moves DVD about rumors that the recent reunion of Dipset might not be 100% real and much more.
"We just keep producing music and it's working out real good. I got my boy Sen City, that's my 1st artist off of 730 Dips," Freekey tells CEO Money Joe. "I'm running down South starting up this 730 Southern situation. 730 is a major movement rocking real hard right now especially in the south."
Zeek knows the streets have been talking about him, Cam'ron, Jim Jones and Juelz Santana getting back together. People want to know if it's genuine or just for the money.
"You gotta understand, once people start seeing...start visualizing and hearing something that was great...that was phenomenal start to form back up. It's always gonna be words and little quotes and chants of people trying to knock that sh*t down. 'Cause if it's not them on top, they don't wanna hear about it. So of course you gonna hear all the negative...' ah them n*ggas don't f*ck with eatch other, they just out here for the money'. I mean but which we are also you know what I'm sayin, but we not just out for the money. It's things we had to admit. Like we wasn't just a group of people that we knew was nice, we all was real family. Not through blood, but through the years we grew up. Before all this rap sh*t it was me, Cam and Jim."
Zeekey has a lot more to say about Hell Rell, Jha Jha, J.R. Writer, 40 Cal and more, so peep the entire interview below.

We brought you deep into the mind of Freekey Zeekey In Part One of his interview with Major Moves DVD Here. Now we're going in for part two. You never know what you might here come out of Zeke's mouth so hold on.
The Former 1st Lady of Dipset, Jha Jha had a few not so nice things to say about Jim Jones recently, claimiming he's blackballed.her from the business.
"I'm not here to talk about her, I guess she felt that type of way, but that aint gonna make her no money. You gotta look at it, if they see me, Cam, Jim standing over here and Jha Jha over there. Which deal you think you gon go with?"
In situations like that, I always look at my man Dr Dre. The n*gga Suge took everything, Suge Debo'd this n*gga. He had like over $100 million or whatever Death Row had made. Dre aint make sh*t, Dre just dropped everything and bounced. No money, no nothing they aint even do sh*t, went back in the lab, picked Eminem up."
Money Joe Asked if Zeke had reached out to Max-B since he got knocked.
"I mean the years he got that's crazy, I mean I don't wish that on no man. But personally haven't [reached out] but I'm not gonna sit there and keep kicking the n*gga in the nuts. He said some sh*t and did some sh*t that I could never forgive him for cause Jim is my family. But it's things I wouldn't wanna see happen to the n*gga anyway because I know he wouldn't really do none of the sh*t he sayin, he was just talking out of anger."
Zeekey went on to call the beef with French Montana internet drama said and it aint making him any money so he's not interested in it.
Things are coming together nicely again for Cam'Ron.
The Dipset reunion is complete now that Cam and Dipset Capo have reconciled their differences. To make it official Cam, Juelz Santana and Jim released a new track titled "Salute" a couple of weeks ago.
Now according to AllHipHop, Killa is about to release a new album titled 'Gunz N' Butta'. The album will feature heavy contributions from Cam protege and fellow Harlem native Vado, who co-wrote the album.
"It’s our first album and I promise it’s so much of a classic,” Vado told AllHipHop. “It’s like all the Boss of all Bosses tapes put together. We hit y’all from all angles—we hit y’all from the streets, for the ladies, for the club… It’s five stars, man."
Expect a video real soon for the lead single, "Speaking In Tungs".
The album is set to drop August 31, followed by Vado's highly anticipated mixtape, 'Swine Flu.

No question, one of the hottest rappers repping New York right now is Vado. Straight out of Harlem, he talks about how he became affiliated with Cam'Ron and the origin of the slang "slime".
"When I was locked up, I'd tell a n*gga like what up slime? He like 'you a funny n*gga'. N*ggas know it's all love though. I been meaning to explain to the world what "slime" is. Slime stand for Street Life Intelligence and Money Is Everything, bottom line. So I say sliiiiime, slimettes, slime screw, slime commitee."
It seems as if Vado just emerged from out of nowhere. His buzz has picked up speed since getting down with Cam'Ron's U.N. But Vado explains that he was grinding way before that, putting in work with Young Money artist, Jae Millz.
"Shout out to Jae Millz, that's like my brother, my slime partner. You know, regular sh*t, we grew up together. So I came in with him, he was doing his thing. Automatically he came to me, he was on mad cyphers killin' it. We was battling n*ggas on that sh*t. So that was kinda like my breakthrough as far as showing people I could spit."
"As far as my association with U.N./Dipset, it's just a big round table. Cam definitely broght me out at Summer Jam, he didn't have to do that. That n*gga believe in me and that's one thing he know talent. He let me do me in the booth. He don't tell me how to rap, format, nothing, he just let me go off."
Be on the lookout for Vado's 'Slime Flu' mixtape coming soon.
