Cam’ron has continued to take shots at LiAngelo Ball, the brother of NBA stars Lonzo and LaMelo, after getting into a back-and-forth with the basketball player.
Killa Cam popped off on the former G League guard on his sports talk show It Is What It Is on Wednesday (October 23) after Ball claimed that the Dipset legend isn’t a top 10 rapper and that they are “in the same boat” career-wise.

“If you grow up in Chino Hills, I expect you to know my music. My shit reached suburbia [even though] it ain’t really for suburbia. I sold 12 million records; we not in the same boat,” he said, getting a laugh out of Ma$e.
“A championship for musicians is when you go platinum. I got 12 chips, n-gga. What the fuck is you talking about? I sold 12 million records. Producer, ghostwriter, executive producer, artist.”

He added: “Secondly, didn’t the fucking [NBA] start last night? Where are you at? Where are you at right now, bro? You ain’t even overseas! Where you at?”
Cam then dismissively compared LiAngelo to Michael Jackson‘s lesser-known siblings: “Ma$e, I’m not arguing with Tito Jackson […] I ain’t even gonna him Tito, either. He Rebbie Jackson.

“The n-gga’s name is Gelo! I don’t need to be in nobody’s top five. When the money comes in, the money comes in.”

The spat began earlier this week when Cam’ron mocked LiAngelo Ball for playing overseas and not being good enough to make it in the NBA like his brothers Lonzo and LaMelo.
Speaking on It Is What It Is, the Harlem native imagined Gelo’s brothers telling him: “We tried, we did everything we could. We gotta tryout in China for you, that’s all we got” before declaring: “He ain’t NBA good.”

LiAngelo, who has had stints in the NBA’s development league and Summer League and last played professionally in Mexico, quickly hit back on his own podcast What an Experience, which he co-hosts with his brother Lonzo and friends DMO and Anthony Salazar.
“‘Suck It Or Not’ with Lil Wayne, that’s all I remember from you,” he said while addressing Cam. “You don’t know my story like that. To say, ‘Oh, he got a tryout in China,’ you don’t know what I did in the G League, boy. I’m out here hooping.”
Cam’ron returned fire on a follow-up episode of It Is What It Is, saying: “I only know you ’cause your father’s a great marketer, n-gga. I wouldn’t know you if it wasn’t for LaVar Ball.”
He also referenced LiAngelo getting arrested in China for alleged shoplifting: “[LaVar] had two sons that he was right about. Gelo, I ain’t got no problem with you, I just gotta call it like I see it. You’re lucky Trump was in China ’cause they might have cut your fingers off over stealing those sunglasses, n-gga.”

Ball later jabbed back in a video posted online, in which he rubbished Cam’s rap career: “I’ve never talked to someone and you’ve been in [their] top five, top 10, bro. I’ve never heard your name in no rap convo.”
