Bricks exchanged, throw the kid some change
Look homeboy, I ain’t tryna get no name
Must of sniffed cocaine, looking at my diplo chain
The biscuit, turn you to bisquick, mixed with shrimp lo mein
Ol ladies just stop and say “it’s yo thang”
Can’t deny it, look down my wrist goes bling
Bling bling glistening go and get some cash
First kiss my ring, oh no? Then kiss my ass
Back to my zone, homes, it’s the twilight
A 2-3 or 3-2? Nah, get your mind right
It’s the highlights of my life
Every car, crib, gun, chickenhead, that I like
10 on the dope, 10, that’s the size knife
10 in the hood, 10, that’s the size nikes
And they tied tight, my family ties tight
10 towns 200 bricks forget 5 mics

:merchant: :wow:

Californ-i-a by way of BK
I can post a Cam’ron rhyme from the Dipset era lyrically better than basically anything he did before it. But u throw on the track and he makes it sound EASY. I get that the style isn’t for u. But that nikka was def lyrical. Multi’s, metaphors, wordplay, intangibles, humor, originality, etc etc. ALL that shyt was present in prime Dipset Cam.
It's crazy I remember in college, me and my homie, who was a Dipset affiliate (He used to always be in their videos, used to hang with them a lot), used to have to defend Cam to the death. Everyone was like "that nikka just say anything" and he had "nursery rhymes", and I was like, y'all nikkas really aren't listening. Cam was super lyrical pretty much his whole career. I think the singles is what hurt him. In his singles a lot of times he did have the ABC format. Even though they were multis, they came off silly. Especially in songs like Get Em Girls. (which I love, personally, but I understand the critique).

Cam’s peak was that period after SDE after he signed with Roc but before he dropped an album over there. He was the best at that time imo.

When he did that Takeover freestyle….bruh


"It’s perpetual, sit up in correctional
Come through shoot up a precinct like The Professional
Jim Jones get indicted just let me know
Put up the house buy the perico
We movin down to Mexico
Yeah there they won’t mention me
Call Tavisia we need new identities
You want Santiago
I’m Jose Perez, down there they don’t know them heads, shyt
Who don’t think I’m the Don of Dons then bet me
shyt the way I bomb Saddam respects me'

and then they did the freestyle over the Dynasty intro


"Everybody out at the Up in Smoke tour
I was Uptown, gats out, up in coke wars
Bootleg, gun shop, up in both stores
Both grip, both hands held both fours
Ups downs, highs lows, seen both doors
Die or to live, decisions are both yours
But two cats fronted, I broke both jaws
I'm with two chicks, you know I fukked both whores
Homicide, robbery, I broke both laws
I do you like food I assume you roast yours"


Dont forget The Momma loves me Freestyle



nikka like me kept the coke in the cupboard
Mother found it said "Cam I hope you get busted"
Got a lot of nerve, either coked up or dusted
I dont care I need that drop top cocount custard
Did it
Next week range rove and i plushed it
Even the cops in the plain clothes said I crushed it

After 2004 or so, really Purple Haze, Cam fell off. This was one of his best moments, at his height, certainly.

You didn't like Purple Haze? That was the first Cam I heard that wasn't Killa Cam from the COTC days.

Maybe I'm biased cause I heard PH first. :ohhh:
