Cam'ron's Purple Haze release date was his biggest blunder ever as an artist.

Beans album was impacted

The second Young Gunz album was

534 was

It got crazy after 2003

04-05 at the Roc was weird time

Yep few things happened that didn't just mess up Cam:

1) Budget cuts at Def Jam due to illegal downloading
2) Black Album and eventual College Dropout releases taking priority over Cam
3) 50 Cent and G-Unit taking over the airwaves
4) Dame messing up artist budgets and signing too many artists
5) the Linkin Park/Jay-Z collab in 2004
6) the impeding Roc sale
7) Jay-Z demanding royalty checks never cashed

It depends

Some of his stuff aged well.. I can still play 55/60% of Come Home With Me

His freestyles

Certain jawns on Purple Haze still sound great

Killa Season was a really bad album to me when it dropped so I rarely revisit it.

His music has aged fine in my opinion, it’s the new stuff that’s terrible

Album still got a lot of play. It's a classic to a lot of folks.
