Cam’ron Controversial Interview on CNN: What Did He Actually Say?

Cam’ron has responded to his recent, widely shared interview in which he ridiculed and berated CNN’s “Newsnight” host Abby Phillip. During the episode of his podcast titled “It Is What It Is” that aired on Tuesday, the rapper voiced his dissatisfaction with the fact that he was requested to comment on hotel surveillance footage that was acquired by CNN the previous week. The video showed Sean “Diddy” Combs physically abusing Cassie Ventura, who was his girlfriend at the time, in the year 2016.

Before praising his co-host, Mase, who is a rapper and pastor, for his work in the community, he said, “They invited me on the show to talk about what’s going on with Diddy and all that, but my thing about it was… they didn’t invite me on to say about how successful our show is or the positive stuff we do in the community.” Mase is a pastor and a rapper.

“You call me on CNN for the bullshit, and I’m going to give you the bullshit,” Cam’ron said. “We do all these positive things, and you call me bullshit.”

In a subsequent statement, the artist from Dipset made reference to the contentious interviews that he had previously participated in on other networks. He said, “Y’all already know what the resume is with both of them.”

Cam’ron did not provide any explanation as to why he consented to participate in the interview. The requests for response that were made to representatives of CNN and Cam’ron were not immediately responded to.

During the section of “Newsnight” that aired on Monday, Cam’ron voiced his disapproval of Combs’ aggressive conduct, describing it as “egregious,” before the interview seemed to go bad.

When Phillip asked Cam’ron further questions about Combs, the rapper known for his song “Hey Ma” retaliated by questioning the reason he was being asked about the founder of Bad Boy Records.

During the course of the conversation, Cam’ron made a vulgar sexual joke while simultaneously promoting his intimacy supplement.

It was after he had noisily consumed the supplement that he made the statement, “I’m sorry, I’m going to get some cheeks after this HorsePower drink.”

Later on, he inquired about the possibility of the interview being conducted in the first place, asking, “Who is the talent agent for this joint?”

On social media, there were some who agreed with the rapper, while others questioned the reason why CNN requested him to participate in the program to examine incidents of abuse that occur inside the music business. Others who utilize social media on X, which was once known as Twitter, have harshly attacked Cam’ron for the manner in which he spoke with Phillip.

Ernest Owens, a journalist, criticized the rapper for his “disrespectful” conduct with Phillip, who is of African descent. Owens said that the rapper exhibited a kind of sexism that is often focused on women of African descent.

Who is Cam’rom? 

Cameron Giles, who was born on February 4, 1976, is a rapper from the United States of America who is best known by his stage name Cam’ron. Giles began his career in the early 1990s under the name Killa Cam. He signed a recording contract with Entertainment, which is an imprint of Epic Records, and released his first two studio albums, Confessions of Fire (1998) and S.D.E. (Sports Drugs & Entertainment) (2000). The RIAA awarded the former album with a gold certification. Following his departure from Epic Records, Giles secured a recording contract with Roc-A-Fella Records in 2001. The following year, he released his third studio album, titled Come Home with Me. The record was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), and it was the source of the songs “Oh Boy” (which featured Juelz Santana) and “Hey Ma” (which featured Juelz Santana, Freekey Zeekey, and Toya), which reached their highest positions on the Billboard Hot 100 at number four and number three, respectively. The RIAA awarded him a gold certification for his fourth studio album, Purple Haze (2004), which was also greeted with the same level of popularity as his previous albums.

As a result of personal issues with Jay-Z, Giles and his label Diplomat Records severed company with Roc-A-Fella in 2005. Subsequently, Giles negotiated a distribution contract with Asylum Records, which further strengthened the relationship between the two labels. Killa Season was Giles’s fifth studio album, and it was released in 2006. It was followed by a film of the same name, in which Giles also appeared and made his debut as a director and screenwriter. Giles made his comeback to the music industry in 2009, after a period of sabbatical that was prompted by the health of his mother. He released his sixth studio album, Crime Pays (2009), which reached its highest position on the Billboard 200 chart at number three. After ten years, he finally released his seventh studio album, titled Purple Haze 2.
