Cam'ron's records command admiration from a wide spectrum of hip-hoppers: conscious to crunk to gangsta. Cam and his Dipset stick to the same production formula (on "Get Down," for example) that graced his previous monster hit, "Oh Boy": sped-up samples and lots of hooks. Therefore, it seems only natural that he would team up with Kanye West--another rap duke who's taken this style to the bank--and on "Dip-Set Forever" and "Down and Out" they share sped-up samples together. But if drugs (using, selling, or importing) and sexploits aren't your thing, Purple Haze may come off a bit lyrically linear. Cam'ron also plunders pop-culture samples ranging from the Hill Street Blues TV theme ("Harlem Streets") to Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Want to Fun" ("Girls"), often to questionable effect. "Adrenaline," however, teams two MCs with the freakiest flows on the planet, Twista and Psycho Drama, to produce menacing, low-BPM G-funk at its finest. --Dalton Higgins
