Cam’ron is calling out Kanye West in a major way, taking the Chicago rapper to task for his recent antics, controversial statements, and beefs with other artists. On his show Talk With Flee, the Harlem legend didn’t mince words, labeling Ye’s behavior as “desperate,” “disgusting,” and calculated.
From bizarre outfits to bold rants, Cam says none of it surprises him. “He’s always had wild quotables,” he explained. “From the time he said, ‘George Bush doesn’t like Black people’—that just happened to be on CNN. It looked bold instead of bizarre. But he’s been on this type of time for years.”
But what really crossed the line for Cam’ron was Kanye’s recent mention of JAY-Z and his kids. “I was disgusted,” Cam said. “Why are you mentioning another man’s kids? That’s not only out of bounds—it’s desperate.”
Cam’ron Questions Kanye’s Mental Health Narrative
Despite Kanye’s frequent claims of being misunderstood or mentally unstable, Cam’ron isn’t convinced. “Kanye, he play crazy with who he wanna play crazy with,” he shared on All the Smoke. “That n***a’s crazy when it’s convenient.” The Dipset frontman suggested Ye uses the “erratic genius” persona as a shield when it suits him, especially when he’s under pressure or facing backlash.
Cam also criticized Kanye’s contradiction between his material wealth and inner peace: “He talks about having all this money, but he doesn’t look like someone who’s at peace.”
On the Kendrick Lamar Disrespect: “You Don’t Just Claim Greatness—You Prove It”
Kanye’s recent comments downplaying Kendrick Lamar’s position in hip-hop didn’t sit right with Cam either. “You’re saying Kendrick’s not number one, but where’s your work? You don’t just claim greatness—you prove it.” That sentiment echoes a wider frustration in the culture: while Ye has a legacy, he hasn’t released substantial work in years, unlike Kendrick, who continues to dominate with critically acclaimed projects and cultural impact.
Ye’s Stunts Aren’t Shocking Anymore—They’re Exhausting
Kanye’s headline-grabbing move to wear a Black KKK-style outfit was just another example Cam chalked up to performative antics. “To me, it’s just another stunt,” Cam said bluntly. “He wants attention and he’s gonna get it—no matter the cost.”
At a time when Kanye continues to polarize the industry with controversial behavior, Cam’ron’s voice cuts through the noise as one of the few veterans willing to say what others won’t. His message? Accountability still matters—even when you’re a billionaire.
