Max Bell used to get it in Sherman Oaks. Cam’ron’s Ghetto Heaven Vol. 1 is here. No more rumors. No delays. The first official Cam’ron solo project since Crime Pays, expectations were high for those with pink Avirex Jackets and rhinestone studded throwbacks gathering dust in their closets. Thankfully, Cam has come back as real […]

Harold Stallworth is triple black like a pair of Jodeci boots. “Killa” Cam’ron Giles has never been known for subtlety or the esoteric. From blushing range rovers to industrial-size diamond earrings to O’Reilly-gate, he’s always garnered attention by yelling the loudest and shining the brightest. “Ducking Onetime” and “Come and Talk to Me,” Body and […]

Max Bell gets puters putin. There’s no predicting when Cam’ron’s Killa Season 2 will drop. There have been talks of its release since 2011.

Jeff would not let me post 15 Youtube links, so listen to Pluto. These are the nine songs I’ve cobbled together but have more or less skimmed in between […]

Abe Beame is in a different world and you kind of look like Jasmine Guy.

To me, the projects harkens back to when […]

The rumblings of a New York revival have been reverberating for a minute from the Cam’ron & Vado-fronted U.N., young old heads like Action Bronson, Mayhem Lauren, Maffew Ragazino, and old hard heads like Roc Marc. ASAP Rocky is the latest rated rookie, Harlem’s own and managed by the artist formerly known as Eastside Stevie. […]
