Cam’ron, Juelz Santana, Jim Jones, and Freaky Zekey together form The Diplomats, and the legendary Harlem rap outfit is back with a new single "Once Upon a Time." Cam'ron and Jones handle verses, with a euphoric beat from the group's go-to producers The Heatmakerz that floats and settles at the rapper's feet like rose petals. The Diplomats previously reunited for 2015's "Have My Money," but the comeback doesn't stop there: on November 21, Diplomats will play with A$AP Mob at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City.
