Artist: Cam'ron

It's rare to hear a new track from Cam'ron, and this one is very upbeat and positive—perhaps to celebrate Mother's Day? Sampling Cynthia Fee's "Thank You For Being A Friend," a song best known as the Golden Girls theme, the Harlem rapper makes thankfulness sound smooth. The thought of Cam bumping Cynthia Fee is a [...]

Killa season has returned, Cam'ron announces on his latest track "Golden Friends." On the cut, Cam digs into the TV soundtrack files to pick up the theme song from '80s sitcom The Golden Girls show , Cynthia Fee's "Thank You For Being A Friend," and re-fix it into a rap tune celebrating the ways of friends in the hood. Little known fact: A couple of nights per week end with me decompressing while watching the four old Florida ladies love, laugh and pop shit with each other. It's high comedy. [...]

Never thought you'd hear Cam over Blue Sky Black Death production, did you? Thank you, rap gods. This one's from BSBD and S.A.S.' upcoming collaboration, Celestial, and it features dark but somehow still euphoric production that creates an atmospheric backdrop for Cam, S.A.S., and N.O.R.E. It works surprisingly well. Listen/download below. (Noisey via Complex)

I made light that Run the Jewels was the antithesis of the Clams Casino and MF Doom pairing, But that was hyperbole spurred by both tracks leaking the same day. This is the actual counterpart. Blue Sky Black Death were doing cloud rap before it had a name. They are from Seattle where the sun only splinters through clouds 60 days a year. Cam'ron's mind and outfits are sunny 365 days a year. But he's been AWOL for too long. This might be my favorite Cam verse since the Killa Season era. Something about this beat made him write and [...]

French DJ/producer gives us clues about an upcoming album project.

After corralling the one and only Killa Cam for the remix of "Every Little Thing", Paris' own Para One grabbed Night Slugs don Girl Unit for the remix. Wait, what? Cam'Ron and Girl Unit? Have we entered an alternate dimension? If the "Every Little Thing" remix package is a barometer for the state of the internet, we might have to ready ourselves for a bevy of incredibly creative (and equally ill-advised) remixes from across the pop spectrum. Not to say that this Girl Unit remix is unpalatable by any means, it's quite the opposite, but these virtual posse cuts have [...]

Celebrating the 10th Year Anniversary of The Diplomats album Diplomatic Immunity , Babylon Cartel has teamed up with Gianni Lee & Mike Blud to compile the samples from the double disc classic. Definitely something I can get behind, and I was definitely one of the biggest Dipset fans in the Chicago area from 03-06. Anyone else at the Juelz, R.Kelly charity bball game at Simeon in 05?

An early front runner for tune of the year on this unlikely collab from Marble heavy hitter Para One , Irfane (of Breakbot fame), Teki Latex (Sound Pellegrino/co-owner of the  best Wednesday podcast on the internet) and just to top it off, anti-tattletale activist Cam'ron . The original flows well smooth but Club Cheval's Canblaster takes it over the top with his signature nu-jack flourish, sexy bassline work and unexpected key changes. France rides again. [...]
