KILLA. Whilst he's now in his talking head era - like most rappers it seems - Cam'ron was an ever-present voice in the 00s Hip-Hop scene.

The man who helped start Bad Boy Records, only to take himself out of it and eventually take himself out of music entirely, the life of Craig Mack is a sad one overall. His music left behind after his death in 2018 was serviceable, topped off with an iconic track of the 90s.
