Cam’ron Says Jay Z’s “Pound Cake” Verse “Came From Nowhere”

    Cam’ron recently refuted Jay Z’s claims on Drake’s “Pound Cake,” a song that features Jay Z rapping about making Cam’ron millions of dollars. During a recent interview, Cam’ron was asked if he was shocked that Jay Z mentioned him on “Pound Cake.”

    “Not really shocked,” Cam’ron said in an interview with karencivil.com. “That’s just mad random. I thought it came from nowhere basically. Just to clarify, I don’t think Jay was necessarily taking shots at me. I just stated the facts of the scenario. He said he made more millionaires than the Lotto did, but I knew Jay when he didn’t have a million, when none of us had a million, when Dame and them were on the come-up. I respect what all of us have done because I know where we all come from. But the way he put his lyrics [together] and made it seem like he made niggas money or put them in the place where they was supposed to be…He could’ve worded it like he helped niggas make more millions, instead of saying you made niggas millionaires.” 

    Cam’ron’s response to Jay Z’s claims can be heard on his new mixtape, Ghetto Heaven Vol. 1. On “Come And Talk To Me,” Cam’ron refutes the notion that Jay Z made him a millionaire. 

    “She said Jay made you a millionaire and looked me in the eyes,” Cam’ron raps on “Come and Talk To Me.” “Said cake, cake, cake, got that from the pies / We made each other millions, that was my reply / But had a mill before I met him, baby, that ain’t no lie.” 

    Cam’ron addressed the track, saying he’s “fine” with how it’s been received. 

    “It wasn’t nothing,” Cam said of the song. “But you know the streets and the blogs and the radio personalities turned it into whatever they wanted to turn it into. I’m fine with that.

    On the aforementioned “Pound Cake,” Jay Z says he made several other people millionaires.  

    “I done made more millionaires than the Lotto did,” Jay Z raps on the song. “Dame [Dash] made millions / [Kareem] Biggs [Burke] made millions / [Kanye West] made millions, Just [Blaze] made millions / Lyor [Cohen] made millions / Cam made millions.”

    1. Jay always does corny sneak shit like this. Bigging himself up at another rappers expense and his fan base eats it up. All hail King Jay. He can do no wrong. Cam seems like a much more down to earth person then Jay, but I still consider Jay the much more superior rapper at the end of day.

    2. So if camron says his verse came from nowhere, that’s news? You already had an article on his response. Next week if he says it was “funny” are you guys going to post another article? Your content is losing its grip.

    3. Cam cool, Jay cool… do all of ya’ll remember “welcome to new york city”.. that was their first and only collab and that shit was puure fire! them dudes weny back n forth.. if only they had a few more collabs. new york rappers holdin it down then. legends in their own right. obv jay-z made it bigger, but cam did his thing.

    4. jay boasting always he can never tells what happens in the world, intellectual depth like Nas. it is always the benz, the latest rover, his bitches in the sideseat and his consulatnats helped him made him into a business man dude knows nothing about that

      1. [Jay-Z]
        Turn my music high, high, high, high-er
        “You don’t know.. what you’re doing, doing, doing, doing..”
        Sure I do..

        I’m from the streets where the
        hood could swallow a man, bullets’ll follow a man
        There’s so much coke that you could run the slalom
        And cops comb the shit top to bottom
        They say that we are prone to violence, but it’s home sweet home
        Where personalities crash and chrome meets chrome
        The coke prices up and down like it’s Wall Street homes
        But this is worse than the Dow Jones your brains are now blown
        all over that brown Brougham, one slip you are now gone
        Welcome to hell where you are welcome to sell
        But when them shells come you better return ’em
        All scars we earn ’em, all cars we learn ’em like the back of our hand
        We watch for cops hoppin out the back of van
        Wear a G on my chest, I don’t need that for damn
        This ain’t a sewn outfit homes, homes is about it
        Was clappin them flamers before I became famous
        For playin me y’all shall forever remain nameless
        I am Hov’

        Sure I do, I tell you the difference between me and them
        They tryin to get they ones, I’m tryin to get them M’s
        One million, two million, three million, four
        In just five years, forty million more
        You are now lookin at the forty million boy
        I’m rapin Def Jam ’til I’m the hundred million man
        R., O., C.

        “You don’t know.. what you’re doing, doing, doing, doing..”
        That’s where you’re wrong

        I came into this motherfucker a hundred grand strong
        Nine to be exact, from grindin G-packs
        Put this shit in motion ain’t no rewindin me back
        Could make 40 off a brick but one rhyme could beat that
        And if somebody woulda told ’em that Hov’ would sell clothin
        Heh, not in this lifetime, wasn’t in my right mind
        That’s another difference that’s between me and them
        Heh, I’m smarten up, open the market up
        One million, two million, three million, four
        In eighteen months, eighty million more
        Now add that number up with the one I said before
        You are now lookin at one smart black boy
        Momma ain’t raised no fool
        Put me anywhere on God’s green earth, I’ll triple my worth
        Motherfucker – I, will, not, lose

        “You don’t know.. what you’re doing, doing, doing, doing..”
        Put somethin on it

        I sell ice in the winter, I sell fire in hell
        I am a hustler baby, I’ll sell water to a well
        I was born to get cake, move on and switch states
        Cop the Coupe with the roof gone and switch plates
        Was born to dictate, never follow orders
        Dickface, get your shit straight, fucka this is Big Jay
        I.. hahahaha..

        “You don’t know.. what you’re doing, doing, doing, doing..”
        .. will, not, lose, ever.. FUCKA!

        Y’All AND nas IS A FAILED PROJECT THAT’S WHY YALL ARE STILL IN THE PROJECT SENSITIVE NICCAS YALL NEED HUG!

      1. are u high? cam and dipset was popping before jay got involved. jay was even all on them like that it was dame who was really pushing them.

        get your facts straight cam is worth 8 million and meek is work 500 thousand. just google it hater. cam has movie deals. what does meek have.

      2. i doubt meek is richer than jimmy or juelz hes probably about the same he might be getting more now but in a year or two he’ll be in their spot

    5. Cam makes a valid point… Jay should have said “I made cats more millions”… To those it applied to. I took it as, “I made Cam millions” meaning exactly what Cam thought he should have said. He’s not being sensitive like Drake is regarding the Kendrick Lamar “Control” record…

    6. He just contradicted himself. He said in the song that he had a mill before he met jay, but in the interview he said he knew jay when none of them had millions. FOH

      1. He knew hawaain Sophie jay z that is what he means and he probably did make a million before him with horse and carriage.

      2. youre a fucking idiot. straight up. Ill put it real simple

        the years are not real and are just used for arguments sake so calm down.

        2000- jay and cam both dont have a million.

        2001- Cam gets his first million

        2002- Jay gets his first million.

        Can you see how they could know eachother before having millions and then Cam getting his mil before jay, you fucking retard?

      3. In response to:
        “Anonymous:

        youre a fucking idiot. straight up. Ill put it real simple

        the years are not real and are just used for arguments sake so calm down.

        2000- jay and cam both dont have a million.

        2001- Cam gets his first million

        2002- Jay gets his first million.

        Can you see how they could know eachother before having millions and then Cam getting his mil before jay, you fucking retard?”

        NIGGA YOU ARE STRAIGHT RETARDED AND MUST BE YOUNG AS SHIT. Jay was worth 100 million in 2001! Rocawear brought in 85 mil in 99. Then the record sales and other endorsements.

      4. yeah thats jokes. 1998 money ain’t a thang came out and i imagine money wasnt a thang back then for jay

      1. Recovery was one of the worst albums ever. And you should have chose eminemalbum2013.com when you bought your domain, it drops this year.

    7. i think cam takin this a lil further than needed..it was just bars. ppl a lrdy know cam had money before signing. jay had a hot verse too bettter than more than half the verses on MCHG

      1. Dame Dash managed Original Flavors and got Jay on a feature with “Can i get opin”, Dame also managed Children of the Corn (Big L, Cam, Mase, Mcgruff, Bloodshed) Big L and Jay z collaborated at least once before RD came out. So it’s not far fetched to say that they knew each other before the mills came in not to mention Biggie cosigned Cam too on the strenght of Mase.

    8. Camron responding to say he knew Jay before he had million. Im quite sure there are people that knew Jay when he was still living in the projects. The facts of the matter is your where you are and Jay is where he is NOW.He has made more millionaires than the lotto. Stop sounding like a hater Cam and do something with yourself worth talking about.. smh.
