On an episode of “The Breakfast Club,” Cam’ron explained why a new album is not a priority for him and what’s holding up the release of the 19 tracks he has with Mase.
Cam’ron still has witty lyricism running through his veins. Though he has pivoted into hosting shows like “Talk With Flee” on REVOLT and the “It Is What It Is” podcast, he can still deliver fire bars at a moment’s notice. Every so often, he drops off a reminder — proving that the skill set that made him one of East Coast Hip Hop’s legends remains sharp — in the form of a freestyle or as a surprise guest feature.
Those creative musings have left fans hoping for more music from him. However, it seems like his supporters will just have to imagine what a new Cam’ron album could sound like. On Thursday (Oct. 9), Killa Cam stopped by “The Breakfast Club,” where the first question he faced came from DJ Envy. The co-host probed the prospects of a new project release. If he were to get back in the booth, Cam’ron would join a small class of rappers who continue to reap substantial success from their artistry past their “golden era” — think JAY-Z and Nas. Even still, the streaming era of music has shifted how long fans sit with a single project.
