Californ-i-a by way of BK
I can promise this, you dealing with a communist
That'll pull the trigger on any nikka and bomb a bytch
My accomplices, they remain annonymous
And they gon stay there, I swear, I'm what honest is
Honestly you thought I quit like Tomjanovich
Conglomerate, treat you like Ramadan, honor it
Y'all won't eat, I'm unloading a lobster and pasta
Y'all imposters, imposing my posture, I gotcha
Mobsters with choppers, enough data
Chicks, duct tape em, turn 'em over, butt rape 'em
Grams...cut, shave it, damn hand cut shaving
But bust one to hustlers, like a lush, rush craving
That's the hustle, I'm old school, you must page 'em
Whatever love hate em, won't do...touch, play em...
Degrade em, talk slick, nikka you're all sick
Lay you in dog shyt, look over you hawk spit
Beef on Bobby block, right where his homies walk
Homie we make bodies drop, then skate like Tony Hawk
Over short paper, play a O for very long
"Fourth of July"...M80's, cherry bombs
They'll disguise the slugs
Sent his friends for them ends, they had 'em like the Benz......his eyes was bugged
Watch the don poke you
But for 4500, I will John Doe you....ya moms won't know you

You don't like I Just Wanna, Dead or Alive and Stop Calling? wow
Listened again. They are definite skips for me. Not wack - per se - but that second half of the album is a huge fall off from the first half.

No excuses, it's useless
I'm ruthless, I stay fukking two chicks
Watch boost flicks, bust shots, mad acustics
The crime boss with toothpicks, cashflow and crucifix
We stick shyt, producive, a COC exclusive
Cause I'm the nikka that's passed parole, carry a gat to stroll
Slapping, clapping, and wrapping for rolls
Beef fatter than Jackson Hold
Ask Nicole, slugs I shot, ate her like an entray
Her boyfriend Deandre, has no more fiancee
And y'all be fukking snoring like the Killa's boring
But one slept all this Ralph Lauren, shot him and left his mouth pouring
Then I took his skirt, Killa Cam the crook that merk
So when I'm here look alert, before y'all get shook and hurt
Revenge you on the 8th floor, that's where I used to rape whores
Busting off the cap gun, riding on the skateboard
Now all the states is carved in, all the caps and slugs
And I be rapping bugged, by slapping mugs, clapping thugs
And packing drugs, don't ask for love
I'm fukking raw chief, all you fukking whore cease
Only love you give is love taps to your jaw piece
Cause I done fukked sluts and dancers, give us the chance ta
I got bucks and answers, and I rob the city bus for Transfers
Plus I'm touching you reps, buffing your threats
One shot like Russian Roulette, when thrusting the tech
Killa Cam is real you nothing to sweet
MY crew is tight like ice to treys
Hype the blades from nights to days
I slice with blaze, triffling ways
Bombs with all type grenades, cause me and my nikka love bread
My cousin Bloodshed, the one who party out at Club Med
The ex-dust head, I'm causing complex confusion
When I'm out West I'm looting, car taking, Lexus boosting
See me, you know the techs is shooting, execution


flea the god

Personally,...
I know I am a better reviewer, than most of the people who review records.
Only scoop Jackson, is better at reviews and overall cultural commentary than me.
Why do you think if my name is mentioned, about artist they confront me or stfu.

I been reviewing and creating prophecy.
on rap artist taking over the industry first in rap since eminem's ssep.

You can not deny a review from me, and that is proven.


Art Barr
You make it sou d like you are a renowned hip hop journalist. Who do you write for? What is your pen name?
What artists have confronted you?
Where was your review of SSEP published?

CHWM, is nowhere near a classic.
I rate that album with jay's vol II, at a good 3.25 mics.
The three mics, and a quarter is more about impact than actual quality of work.
It is more a piece that is a gateway example.
That shows the type of middle of the road quality sales spike era release.
that would have done numbers in that era, as a work for sale.

It is no way anywhere close to a classic.


Art Barr
I agree with this. Although Vol 2 was a better record.

Superior work makes a classic.
As there are classics, that provided no real cultural/social dynamic or change.
Nor, were they some definitive culturally advancing changing submission, either.
Records like heist of the century, royal flush's first record, the first brand nubian and even you could say done by the forces of nature, and many more.
I also,...disagree in the fact I can hear an album the first time and rate it a classic.
typically, do I think other listeners are well versed,..NO.
DO, I know you to be an incredible legendary review and commentary guy, yeah.
So, i can respect you saying what you said in general.


Art Barr
It's gotta be someone more than just an excellent album. Can't believe you lumped e first Brand Nu album in with those others.
One persons opinion doesn't make a record a classic. Although I don't think that's what you're saying.

Vado did not carry boab...
you are just bias cause you favor vado more than cam.
Yet, vado is to offkey to give him a duke over cam on reel-to-reel.
Also,...
Cam has not fallen off as an emcee.
if you say so,...
You are showing you really don't know the pillar like that.


Art Barr
Cam was best in the COC days, his flow has been lazier in comparison ever since. That's not saying he isn't technically skilled - but he did fall off.

in general, The entire rap game moved into a technical rubrick.
that was based off of the skills pedigree and family tree cam solely comes form.
that is a fact.


Art Barr
So then Cam gets no credit is what you're saying? And if you're saying Cam made hip hop step up lyrically, that's just flat out wrong. Lol.

Less than a week after the early-December release of Purple Haze, Jay-Z became the president of Def Jam Records, and that company made arrangements to seize control of Roc-A-Fella Records, the subsidiary that Jay started with his onetime friend Damon Dash. Dash left the label completely, announcing his plans to start another label called Roc-4-Life. Cam'ron, Dash's friend and one of Roc-A-Fella's flagship artists, attempted to leave the label as well, saying that Roc-A-Fella hadn't given Purple Haze an adequate promotional push-- which is strange considering the album had been in stores for less than a week.

Cam's departure from Roc-A-Fella is still in doubt. But if he isn't contractually obligated to stick it out with Def Jam, this is the end of an era-- a time when a word-twisting surrealist amoral prince had the resources of rap's most successful imprint at his disposal-- and Purple Haze is its last document.

Purple Haze creates its own world both sonically and lyrically. The beats range from wistful chipmunk soul to oppressive, stripped-down, bell-rattling NWA jacks to hypnotic, muted electro bounce. But whether the producers are dishing out the swirling operatic vocals of "Killa Cam" or the chopped-up hair metal guitars of "Bubble Music", they add up to a frozen, prismatic creep, a slow, hard, cinematic bed for Cam's magnetic flow.

And Cam's flow is a thing of beauty. His bored, arrogant voice rolls syllables around until he's hit just about every possible permutation, transforming hard consonants into thrown rocks and idly toying with drug metaphors like they're Rubik's Cubes. In Cam's world, he's the king of Harlem, moving kilos, dispatching foes, and throwing around money with Machiavellian cool. Cam has the warped eloquence of an MF Doom even when he's bragging about violence ("Observe, cock, and spray/ We hit you from a block away/ Drinking saki on a Suzuki in Osaka Bay") or conspicuous consumption ("I park in the towaway zone, chrome/ I don't care; that car a throwaway, homes").

Occasionally, he veers off into pure gibberish: "Wreckx-N-Effect, zoom zoom, poon poon/ Since the movie Coc00n, had the Uzi platoon." The ugliness of Cam's world is never more evident than when he's talking about women: "Any girl I get, I totally open 'em/ Brain and they legs, cokin' and dopin' 'em". Cam's misogyny comes through the speakers like a slap; it's jarring and frightening and sad. But Cam isn't heartless; a few of the songs have an air of weary lamentation, like Tony Soprano driving home after killing his cousin, wondering how it came to this: "I give you a earful, it's tearful/ Told my mother I hustle, and she said, 'Be careful'.

Purple Haze is like a Takeshi Kitano gangster movie; every moment of transcendent musical or linguistic beauty is shadowed by the spectre of death, an end so inevitable that Cam doesn't even let it get to him anymore. There's no sense of joy or exhilaration in his spending and shooting and fukking, but it's the only thing he knows.

listen to cam spaz out on here



:damn:

Say what cats did I hang with, slang with, bang bang with
Blain gangsta ganked it left lane to the banquet
Live from the borough where Rich Porter became Rich
Purple Rain in the rain explains it, on that same spit
To the day of arraignmant I aim and flame leave a lane
The clips change, obtain bricks, exchange bricks
Bricks exchange, throw the kid some change
Look homeboy, I ain't trying to get no name
Must of sniffed cocaine, lookin' at my Diplo chain
The biscuit turn you to bisquick mixed with shrimp lo mein

Old ladies just stop and say "it's yo thang"
Can't deny 'em, look down my wrist go bling
Bling bling, glistening, come and get some cash
First kiss my ring, ohh no, well kiss my ass
Back in my zone homes, get ya mind right
The 2-3 or 3-2, nah, it's the twilight
It's the highlights of my life
Every gun, car, crib, chicken-head that I like
Ten on the dope, ten that's what size knife
Ten in the hood, ten that's the size nikes
And they tied tight, my family ties tight
Ten town 200 bricks, forget 5 mics

this comments really shows you really don't know emcee'n that well.
in the later coc days,..cam was offkey and a blatant over the top biter of ghostface.
cam was not in his nicest incarnation during coc.
stop trying to claim some early liking of an artist as validation.
when technically anyone with knowledge of skill in emcee'n.
would not give your idea of cam's coc days as his best the time of day.
also,....
you have no idea about pockets or vocal tonality and it shows.
as you just call his flow lazier,..
when it is much more a technical based convo than you are capable of having.

just stop it,..breh....
