Cam'ron - I Used to Get It In Ohio
Artist: Cam'ron
Producer: AraabMUZIK
Album: Crime Pays
Label: Diplomat/eOne
Though Cam’ron‘s exclusive interview with our own DJ “Z” won’t hit our front page till Thursday, I had the privilege of hearing it early (fun fact: I’ve been transcribing DJBooth interviews since May of ‘07) and one of the subjects covered is the hospitality the Harlem emcee enjoyed during his time in the Midwest. These experiences were the inspiration for new street single I Used to Get It In Ohio, which finds him showing love to America’s underrated “Fourth Coast,” as well as telling off all the snitches and haters who would stand in his way, over an aggressive piano-and-synth instrumental by AraabMUZIK (who readers may remember from his work on several recently-featured Starrs & Murph cuts). Set for inclusion on the May 5th release of Cam’s sixth studio album, Crime Pays, I Used to Get It In Ohio is sure to receive heavy rotation in the Midwestern streets and beyond.

I dont know what to think about this production. I like parts of it, and the snares keep me noddin my head, but I think the synths are too heavy.
Anyway, Cam is Cam on this one. The thing about that is that his lyrics aren't anything too special, and his flow is OK, but the way he composes his rhymes (the end of each line) always keep me interested. Cam's vocals sound a lil off over this beat. Its a nice street single, but I know with some better fitting production we'll be hearin some real cool stuff comin from Cam soon. I'm excited to hear some more stuff from him and his album. P.S.: Thanx 4 tha Milwaukee shoutout Cam! |

This is some hard stuff right here! The beat is definitely hot and the synths sound good with the bass! Yall can hate Cam his lyrics are sometimes questioned but his lyrics are perfect for this song! Bangin street track!

Everyone thinks that Cam is only an east coast dude - he spent parts of his life living in Ohio and Chicago! This is Cam at his best. Oh... and there is A LOT more where that came from. Midwest, stand up.
Let's see the comments pick up, people! Those who leave feedback/ratings and interact on a regular basis are going to have a nice surprise pretty soon. |

Wo, Cam'ron is coming back strong all of a sudden. I thought he was washed up 3 months ago, but my opinion is changing very quickly with some of these songs he's comin out with now

uh, cam'ron... aint tryna sound like a hater now, but this just aint workin...if this is cam at his best, then that aint a good thing.. cam aint workin for me no more.. use to be a fan, but not feelin em no more.. il admit beat is OK, i give it a 5 outta 10.. but lyrically, he dont even compare to the new names comin out.. he needs to step it up or step off.

I'm from chicago and there is just not any chicago artist that I love. Yes, I know there are many many talented ones, but I always find myself leanin to the coasts. This is aight, kinda boring to me.

Camron actually has a funny ass movie skit to go with this song! It is HILARIOUS! CAM is his own type of rapper and there is no one like him at all... He makes me laugh like crazy all the time...
As for this track - The beat is cool...definitely something Cam'ron would rock with. CAM does his thing on here! This is classic CAM right here! HE's BACK! It's still not all that hot though, so Rotation is about it for me! |

I've been fiending for that Killa Crack! Where have the beats been? Where has that signature flow been?!!? MuzzieBoi, I'm gonna definitely have to cosign, but my feelings for Cam are unreasonably strong. As for this gem, he went in. Killa Season has begun...I hope!!!

Decent joint, the producer AraabMUZIK is pretty sick tho. This beat is solid, but if you see AraabMUZIK on those beat drums.....dude is SICK.
Anyway Cam isn't bad on this, it just isn't a banger. Decent tho. Everybody check out AraabMUZIK tho, real deal. |

The beat is kinda soft but the flo is pretty tight. I find the beats let down Cam'ron most of the time.

The production is fire. Cam rides the beat like he's back on his grizzly! I'd rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6 they carry my bricks from 12 to 12.
That's the line!^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
