The Harlem rapper continues an S.D.E. tradition with a teaser from Killa Season 2.
Cam’ron previewed track ‘Losing Weight Pt. 3’ on Instagram last night with a verse about legendary Harlem rapper Big L’s murder and alleged murderer Gerard Woodley. (Woodley was shot and killed earlier this year at almost the exact location of L’s death.)
The verse is reminiscent of Cam’s early work, coherent storytelling rapped in nursery rhyme cadence like tracks ‘Wrong Ones’ and ‘D Rugs’ from his debut album Confessions of Fire. Before his official full-length, Cam was in a crew called Children of the Corn with Big L (and 90s star Mase, who then went by Murda Mase), so it’s nice to hear him resting on this old style.
Check out the verse below (perhaps while imbibing the grape soda-flavored weed strain Cam developed). Killa Season 2 is slated for a November release.
