CD Reviews
Finally a rap CD worth buying
Specialk | Buffalo, NY | 05/13/2009

"This is probably the first rap CD I felt was worthy of me going out and buying in close to a year. One of the best parts about this CD is whats not on it, there are no auto tune choruses, bad ron brownz features, or a crappy beat from the new "hot" producer of the month.
Cam's album is produced in-house and most of the beats on the album are on point. Cam is still crazy with the lyrics and definitely did his thing this time around. This is a great summer time album especially for the whip. I just wish more rappers would stop trying to follow the lastest trend and make their own lane like Cam.
Favorite tracks:
Cookin up
Curve
Get it in Ohio
Spend the night
Get it get it"
Where Cam go?

"This is a typical graduate stage album for the high profile rapper....
I guess after all the videos concerts trips around the world and gettin Oreily himself flustered, my man Cam turned into a one of those with so much food on his plate he can no longer relate. This is not like my man either. Can someone tell me wheres the real Camron Giles!? We waitin doggie....."
Worth buying it even if you are not a Hardcore Cam Fan

"First of all i gotta point out that this record has 23 Tracks!!! not like your other hip hop releases with 13 or 14 tracks that come out nowadays. Even though some songs leaked into the internet there are still a lot of songs which are new, and some older songs have new beats ( i hate my job)
The biggest surprise are "curve" and "spend the night" where Cam's in house producers sample well known house songs.
I already bought my copy
Support good artists and do that too"
Cam is back !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"After a couple years off Camron has returned with a great album. He breathes life back into a suffering rap atmosphere. Get this cd if you want some street rap."
