1. The by far most popular group called The Diplomats (also known as Dipset) are a Harlem, New York-based group who previously signed to Roc-A-Fella Records, but now are signed to own label Diplomats Record. Founded by rappers Cam'ron and Jim Jones, the group released their debut album Diplomatic Immunity under their imprint Diplomat Records.
Diplomat Records also distribute artist Cam'ron through Asylum Records. Under Koch Entertainment, Jim Jones, Juelz Santana, 40 Cal., Freekey Zekey, J.R. Writer, Hell Rell, Un Kasa and Jha Jha are also signed on as members of The Diplomats record label. London-based duo, S.A.S, are also part of The Diplomats. Another member, Jay Bezel, is signed to Sure Shot Records. The group's sophomore album Diplomatic Immunity 2 was released under Koch Entertainment. Juelz Santana currently is the only member still signed to Diplomat Records and Def Jam Records.
One of the defining elements of the Diplomats' music is the innovative slang they have incorporated into their lyrics. The broader hip-hop community has accepted and utilized many of their terms, including "doggie,", "no homo", "piff," "huff," "u mad?", "move the movement", "off' wit' Ya' Kufi Smacker", "goonies goo goo,", "duck tales", "family matters", and "coochie rap". They also coined the greeting, "What's Really Good?". Many of the rappers were signed, and were premiered in mixtapes, but the Diplomats did not become exclusive until 2003 with their cd Diplomatic Immunity. In previous music videos when Cam'ron was starting his career you could see fellow diplomats like Jim Jones or Freeky Zeeky. The Diplomats have also gained notable street credability through their mixtapes, especially in New York, and have made a small fortune through mixtape sales. They also have their own brand of Liquor, Sizzurp.

Tell a chick if she round me, quick and profoundly
If you don't swollow what comes out this dick get from 'round me

How I know bitches talk behind my back when they ain't round me
Gossip tellin' lies on a chick when they ain't round me
Even try and let my man hit when they ain't round me
Then act like everything is perfect when they get around me
I'm a top notch bitch, you about a piece of shit
Yo net worth is zilch, up yo game a couple bricks

Went from walkin' everywhere to shotgun in the 6
I'm bout to bomb me a bitch, go Sadaam on a bitch
Blow yoself to smitherines, goin' strong on them hits
On a high speed paper chase, no time to hesitate
Y'all bitches ain't down, ain't holdin no pounds, get out my fuckin' face

The Diplomats's song "Get From Round Me" featuring Jha Jha is a track that depicts overcoming haughtiness and being true to oneself. The song, which is performed over a rhythmically intense beat, comprises an array of verses by Jha Jha, Juelz Santana, and Cam'Ron, each highlighting their unique experiences with money, fame, and struggle. Juelz Santana emphasizes the importance of loyalty and a sense of community around him, while Cam'Ron highlights the dangers of being surrounded by fake people. Jha Jha raps about her half-thug, half-lady identity and her hustle to make money.
Jha Jha's verses expose her arrogance towards her success and how she has changed because of it. She is half crazy, half hazey puffing on drugs, half rich but still holds on to her purple punch, and sips on syrup, representing her transition from being broke to where she is now. Jha Jha's opening line, "I'm the definition of, half lady half thug," sets the tone for her feeling of achievement and power.
Juelz Santana's verse is somewhat different from Jha Jha's, as he starts by emphasizing that he has come a long way from the days when teachers used to down and clown him. Santana goes on to mention that he is only interested in people who have a strong desire to become rich and successful, perhaps due to the fact that he believes that the company you keep shapes your destiny. Santana asserts that if one is not interested in acquiring wealth, they should stay away from him.
Cam'Ron closes out the track with his unique wordplay, discussing his status as the boss of the big apple and detailing how people celebrate him as a person of authority. Cam'ron's verse highlights the dangers of surrounding oneself with people who do not share your goals or values, yet still desire to be around you for their gain.
