The BoomBox: I heard you’re working on a sitcom.

Cam: We haven’t come up with a title for the sitcom, but it’s basically like a black ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm,’ basically based upon the last year or two of my life. How my girl wanted me to go do an album with my mom and you know, I just want to sit around and sell weed basically, and make about $60.00 a week and be happy with it, cause I get a rush just from sellin’ it. So we got a bunch of situations around it. It’s real comical though, it isn’t serious at all.

The BoomBox: So you’re a fan of ‘Curb.’

Cam: Oh, I’m a big fan. I’m a big Larry David fan and all…that’s like the only person I want to meet in the world. Besides anybody, it’s nobody else in the world I want to meet but Larry David.

Få rappare bör syssla med film. Cam’ron är definitivt en av dem.

Medan vi väntar på Cousin Bang så kollar vi på Paid In Full igen.

Man kanske borde ta sig i kragen och börja plöja Curb Your Enthusiasm

Chav-hate has even trickled into the popular music scene. From the Beatles onwards, working-class bands once dominated rock, and indie music in particular: the Stone Roses, the Smiths, Happy Mondays and the Verve, to take a few popular examples. But is is difficult to name any prominent working-class bands since the heyday of Oasis in the mid 1990s: it is middle-class bands like Coldplay or Keane that now rule the roost in music. ‘There has been a noticeable drift towards middle-class values in the music business,’ says Mark Chadwick, the lead singer of rock band the Levellers. ‘Working-class bands seem to be few and far between.’ Instead there’s an abundance of middle-class impersonations of working-class caricatures, such as the ‘mockney’ style of artists like Damon Albarn and Lily Allen.
