Description
Cam’ron’s second Roc-A- Fella full-length and fourth overall went gold for a reason. In the early 2000s, Cam and his Diplomats were ruling New York, and Purple Haze undeniably took them to higher heights. Among numerous producers in his stable, relative newcomer Kanye West brings the heat twice here, with the single “Down & Out” (with Kanye pulling double duty, also rocking the mic) and “Dip-Set Forever.” Elsewhere, Cam’s Diplomats crew swarm to support, on “Hey Lady” (with Freekey Zekey) and the more minimal, N.W.A. tribute “The Dope Man,” with Jim Jones. “Bubble Music” is a Cam standalone, with some reggae-tinged chops that change the pace a bit. And all throughout there are talented guests who rock alongside Cam’s no-nonsense flow to bring tracks to life: cases in point, “More Reasons” with Jaheim, and “Girls,” with Mona Lisa.
