I cant really believe what im reading...how can this be up for debate? Cam's Pre-Rocafella albums WERE NOT HOT!!! He has always been a bubble gum rapper. His shit sells because he has good timing and delivery (not to mention hot production), but his rep is strictly superficial. Listen to the rhymes Jada been spittin since the early 90's and tell me he's not one of the realest out there. Cam don't even make sense half the time ("rims look like laffy taffy"...what the fuck?). I aint gonna front like Jada's last album wasn't a minor disapppintment compared to earlier L.O.X. shit, but the truth remains he has more natural talent than Cam could ever dream of...or attempt to manufacture.
