Shortly after the release of his fifth album, Killa Season, in 2006 and his 2007 war of words with 50 Cent, Cam’ron suddenly disappeared from the spotlight, prompting numerous “Where’s Cam’ron?” jokes from hip-hop fans nationwide.  Well, Booth-heads, I hope you’ve gotten your laughs in ahead of time, because Killa Cam is back with a brand-new official single whose video has already picked up considerable buzz.  Struggling through the hassles of the 9-to-5 lifestyle, Cam goes through numerous interviews in Harlem only to be turned down because of his prior criminal history – after going back to hustling on the block, his complaint remains the same: I Hate My Job.  Produced by Skitzo House (of FreNYC), I Hate My Job is the perfect song to play while driving between a crummy job and the interviews for a better one.  Cam’ron’s sixth album, Crime Pays, will be released on April 21 off Diplomat/Asylum.

This production seems to plain for Cam and doesn't fit him well at all.. but I guess he's just tryin to get back in the game.

Cam'ron always was a solid rapper ever since he was in dipset. Its sad how they broke apart, cuz they use to produce some really classic joints. I new cam would be back, he is to loyal to the rap game and always goes hard on every track he produces. This is a good song. This is the Cam'ron that needs to be back spittin hard on records and making raw beats. Welcome back!

I heard this track last week when it came out on the net! It's a cool "old original Cam" type of track. Definitely something to make you laugh and something that goes out to the everyday working guy/gal out there. Cool Stuff! Not his best, but something cool to play from time to time!

I heard this song and saw the video for it earlier last week. Cam is back! This joint was straight up real. I'm actually looking forward to "Crime Pays" and what other joints he crafts together.

BTW, here's my best impression of a Cam'ron verse

"I'm getting firsty firsties

You getting second seconds

And in a second second

Hit you with that second second

Leave your body in fourths, thirds, seconds, seconds

And it only took a few hours, minutes

Seconds, seconds"

This is a really cool concept for a song, has got that appeal to it. The beat could have been better and I've never been a HUGE fan of Cam, so that will hold it back from 4 stars

First of all, I have a love/hate thing wit this production. I love the piano sample, but I hate the unpolished sound of it. Cam does his usual, which was pretty entertaining. This is a song that is pretty relateable to everyone, so its pretty cool.

The best song Cam'ron has came out with in the last 3 years. The beat is nice, its a little simple, though very effective & Cam'ron was great with the mic on this as well

yo, he ripped it. I always secretly liked Cam. It would be cool for him and Kanye to do a song together. Never really understood why people hated on him, he's a pretty calm guy. good long track, there aren't enough single that last 5 minutes.
