Diplomat Records is an American hip hop record label founded by Harlem rappers Jim Jones and Cam'ron. Dipset currently releases music under the independent label E1 music. In the early 2000's Dipset was very popular for having star rappers with radio hits like Juelz Santana and Cam'Ron and for their association with Jay-Z's Roc-A-Fella records. In 2005 Dipset moved away from Roc-a-Fella and Cam'Ron sold Juelz Santana's contract back to Def Jam. Between 2006 and 2009 Dipset was relatively quiet aside from Cam'Ron and Jim Jones. However, in 2010 they reunited and have begun to associate themselves with rapper Vado. Now, Dipset has put water under the bridge with Juelz Santana and they are planning a comeback. Santana, Cam'Ron, and Jim Jones are all planning on releasing new albums in 2012. It also looks very likely that Dipset will make a new album under the name The Diplomats this year.

Famous quotes containing the words diplomat and/or records:
“A diplomat these days is nothing but a head-waiter who’s allowed to sit down occasionally.”
—Peter Ustinov (b. 1921)
“Although crowds gathered once if she but showed her face,
And even old men’s eyes grew dim, this hand alone,
Like some last courtier at a gypsy camping-place
Babbling of fallen majesty, records what’s gone.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
