Cam'ron

Crime Pays

Release Date: May 5, 2009
Label: Asylum Records

Abstract

It's been two years since Cam'ron promised a "hot summer" in a tank top and boxers , but after a label shake-up, a beef with 50 Cent and internal tension with Dip Set partner Jim Jones, the Harlem MC's long-awaited sixth album has finally become a reality. The disappointing sales of Killa Season make Crime Pays a crucial album in Cam'ron's career as to whether or not he's still relevant in the hip hop world, something that's become increasingly hard to do for anyone who's become the subject of 50's insults. At the least, street anthems like the Midwest repping "I Used To Get It In Ohio" and "I Hate My Job" are the kind of hard hitting and soulful tracks that Cam'ron built his fanbase on and should please longtime listeners.

Fire album. I been a cam fan for a minute now. I got all his alubums except s.d.e. and children of the corn, but the rest of em i got em. I buy this nigga straight out the store. I don't bootleg niggaz that i respect in the game. Im down here in ga and he don't get a lot of spins down here but i mess wit cam. I just wish down south would give him some mo radio play. The most underated rapper alive. A lot of people forget but Cam starting this whole swag thang. Everybody else just copycats.

Yo, First off let me start by saying Cam is Harlem's truth. Hate it or love it, he's a natural born hustler, and will always progress financially. Second, Crime Pays (in stores now go cop that) is FIRE. Super fresh. Production is crack. Flow is SERIOUS. Cam is back to Killa. BEST ALBUM OUT NOW.....

CRIME PAYS. GO COP THAT.
