Cam'ron - Public Enemy #1 Mixtape Appreciation Thread

[WEED]

This mixtape is easily one of Cam'ron's best releases, even among his albums in my opinion. Cam'ron really came (pause) back strong with this mixtape and stepped his game:

Cam'Ron - Child of The Ghetto - YouTube

Cam'ron - Im a Hustler Barry - YouTube

Camron- Why They - YouTube

Cam'ron - Get Rich feat. Tom Gist - YouTube

u should, its dope, and he did'nt disapeer, this mixtape came out a month after that happened. the intro is all about the punch its like 8 minutes long and classic.

Cam really needs to get back to this. I know he has another one of these in him (pause) he just needs to get back to taking rap serious to show everyone who's sleeping how he was able to hang with dudes like Murda Mase and Big L

u havent fukked wit the boss of all bosses series?

cam has been making classic street shyt non stop the last few years. he's never fell off. the niggga been the man since 2000, best street rapper to do it

Cam is that real swag, these lil kids with record deals who claim they swag rappers aint got no fukking swag. lol

Glitter is one of the most swagged up songs on that album, but the album offers a lot of lyricism too
