Cam’ron Explains What Went Down During Viral CNN Interview

by

Cam’ron went viral last night thanks to an appearance he had on CNN. During the appearance, Cam was asked about the situation involving Diddy and Cassie. However, Cam didn’t seem interested in delivering any real answers. Instead, he promoted his Pink Horse Power supplement that is meant to be for male enhancement. It led to a hilarious yet awkward moment that has taken the internet by storm. Furthermore, it has created a debate surrounding whether or not Cam was out of pocket for his comments. Meanwhile, others argue that CNN should have never invited him on.

Today, Cam’ron filmed It Is What It Is, where Mase and Stat Baby were on the edge of their seats, waiting for Cam to explain what went down. As you will hear in the clip below, Cam took issue with the fact that they wanted to have him on to talk about a negative situation. Cam noted that he and Mase are doing positive things for the community, but CNN is not interested in them. The artist noted that if CNN wanted to invite him up for ” the bullshit,” they should have expected bullshit in return.

Cam did go on to make it clear that he does not support domestic violence, pedophilia, sex trafficking, or anything of the sort. He understands that the Diddy video is “egregious,” and he would never endorse that kind of thing. Regardless, he felt like CNN should have known he would have given a bad interview given his history on shows like 60 Minutes and The O’Reilly Factor.

Fat Joe Stands Up For Young Thug, Says He’s Lied In “95%” Of His Songs

Young Thug and YSL’s RICO case is obviously a big point of contention in the worlds of crime and hip-hop. On that last point, though, many MCs are concerned of the precedent this case could set, as the court will admit rap lyrics as evidence. Moreover, this debate centers around whether these artistic expressions should be taken as true, especially in an industry in which artists are rewarded for being more outlandish, “hard,” and “real in the streets” than the last. A legend in hip-hop, Fat Joe, recently spoke to Gayle King on CNN about how much he and other rappers lie all the time in their music, and why this is a ridiculous conclusion to arrive to on behalf of the justice system.

“I’ve been rapping professionally for 30 years,” Fat Joe began. “I’ve lied in almost 95 percent of my songs. I’m being honest. I write like I feel that day. I’m just being creative. You couldn’t build a jail high enough for the lyrics I’ve said on songs, which are all untrue. What I am is a family man, the person who gives back to my community all the time, opens businesses in my community.

“So the music would never amount to the actual person, Joseph Cartagena,” Fat Joe added. “What’s even more horrible is that the district attorneys, they know those lyrics ain’t real. They know that’s creativity. But if it helps their case, they’ll use it to put these guys in jail. And here, we’re having a fun show about it and discussion, but there really is six defendants in Atlanta who might spend the rest of their lives in jail for something that’s totally not true. This is very serious. This destroys families.

“This case right here is setting such a precedent in America,” he concluded on a somber note. “Because they’ve used this before in up-and-coming, aspiring artists. They’ve never took a guy off the stage in the arena. You know, a number one artist that my daughter and all the kids look up to, and say, ‘No, you going on trial for this.’ It’s nasty work, it’s real nasty work.” For more news and the latest updates on Young Thug, YSL, and Fat Joe, stay logged into HNHH.
