Video: Cam’s Former Manager Talks About His Book
Cam’ron’s ex-manager Big Joe talks about his upcoming book, Conversation With a Diplomat and expresses some opinions. Strongly.
Related: AOL’s Boombox just put up an interview with Killa where talks about Jimmy, his Curb Your Enthusiasm inspired show, and Ohio. What he says here about Chicago being the 2nd greatest city in the U.S. (ok, those are my words) reminds me of something Anthony Bourdain said on his Chicago episode: “In my opinion, it is the only other real metropolis in America…”
The BoomBox: What’s good with Ohio?
Cam: I had a couple clubs out in Ohio. I had a club in Columbus. Ohio’s been real lucrative on the club side of things for me. And then Chicago, I just love Chicago so much because it’s the same thing as New York, but the people are a little more friendlier, a little more, you know, homely. Cause you can say you live in a city but there’s no city like New York and Chicago.
Don’t forget the Chi though…

Oriental is a form of describing a cuisine or a culture or something like that. It is offensive to call someone asian ‘oriental’. Isnt BH from the pacific islands, I always wanted to know what to call people from there
Pacific islanders? My boy is from there but i never asked
May 13th, 2009 at 6:12 pm

May 13th, 2009 at 6:14 pm
when I first went to Chicago I was blown when bars were open until 5am (on Saturdays only I think).
I was used to Philly and DC where shit closed at 2am.
Here in NY its 24-7 tho LOL

Asian is a term to use when u dont know if some1 is chinese, japanese, vietnamese, korean, taiwanese, etc.
People from India are indian, turkisk turks, etc. You dont call them Asian
thats the PC code.
I think orient is like negro/colored. An encompassing term which is offensive to some Asians.
I personally cant tell well enough to know a Korean from an Chinese person without seeing a last name, and even THEN its crazy
May 13th, 2009 at 6:16 pm
I was used to Philly and DC where shit closed at 2am.
^^^
word I hate that shit ……. but I am getting to the point where 12am is enough for me to call it a night
May 13th, 2009 at 6:16 pm

this is correct
–Thank you kind sir

=============================
This too!
Chicks in Columbus are mad cooperative. I had a buncha shorties in Columbus. I had chicks coming to my school on the weekends to scoop me up & take me back to Columbus. If I were to ever leave New York, I’d move to Virginia Beach, Fayetteville, NC, Chicago or Columbus. A New York nigga can come up out there.

^yo if someone buys albums but then returns them a couple days later, does the return subtract from total albums sold because if not then im bout to make a very large financial investment in LASERS, pushing his album sales up by the thousands, and then mass-returning all my copies except for 3.
