When Cam’ron and Jim Jones reconciled their differences this past April, everyone was caught off-guard except for Killa’s protégé/U.N. member Vado.
Speaking with Complex.com, the Harlem-native explained that he knew about the eventual reunion before it hit the internet. “Cam sat me down, he told me what’s going on and what’s about to happen and I felt it was a great look for Harlem,” he stated. “Then to top it off, you’re adding a new artist to it, you feel me? So I told Cam it sounded like a great look and we about to take over. I’m behind whatever Cam do, no homo, ’cause if it wasn’t for him, I wouldn’t be here.”
As the de facto newest member of the Dipset crew that also includes Juelz Santana, Freekey Zekey and Hell Rell, Vado added, “I mean me being from Harlem, I want to do this music right. I want to big up my borough. I want to be with cats from my town that could solidify me…To keep it 100 with you, I was like that dude in the ‘hood that was nice on the court, but never played in the league, never played college ball, but everybody in the streets knows he’s nice and they pump him up.”
