Cam’ron Exposes His “Aura”
Will we ever get another Cam’ron album? Ever since his ill-fated 2006 effort Killa Season turned out to be little more than a glorified mixtape, he’s been hiding from the public eye. He emerged a few times last year to argue with 50 on the radio and drop his Public Enemy #1 mixtape, but he would always retreat back underground after about a week.
Last night, a radio rip of a new Cam song called “My Aura” leaked. It’s unclear how new the track is, but it definitely has a similar energy to some of his manic 2005 material (”Get Em Daddy,” “Girls, Cash, Cars”). The name of his next album has changed so many times—from Shade of Black to Courtesy Curtis to Crime Pays—that we can’t call it. But if this is a taste Cam’s future, we’re not mad. Listen to “My Aura” below.

^^ haha - da only “Byrd” u need is Calvin Byrd!!! (ie. if u ain’t kno, that’s 40 Cals Gov’t name). It’s 40!!!!
Naw but seriously the scene definitely needs Cam. I mean the dude’s becoming a veteran. He can’t be doin this disappearing act shit. The only thing Cam’s shit ever lacked was work ethic - he always drops albums every 2 years and that’s just not cool man. His lyrics were always tight and we need that these days with all these wack MC’s. Nas even gave Cam props saying he was a tight lyricist so that’s high praise. He needs to be here on a yearly basis for sure though…
