After an appearances on 60 Minutes With Anderson Cooper earlier this week in which Cam’ron (Camron Giles) stated snitching is wrong and isn’t tolerated amongst inner city communities; an apology has been issued for his comments through his Public Relations Firm “5W Public Relations “
“In 2005, I was a victim of a violent crime. I was shot multiple times without provocation by two armed men who attempted to carjack my vehicle. Although I was a crime victim, I didn’t feel like I could cooperate with the police investigation. Where I come from, once word gets out that you’ve cooperated with the police that only makes you a bigger target of criminal violence. That is a dark reality in so many neighborhoods like mine across America. I’m not saying it’s right, but it’s reality. And it’s not unfounded. There’s a harsh reality around violence and criminal justice in our inner cities.
“But my experience in no way justifies what I said. Looking back now, I can see how those comments could be viewed as offensive, especially to those who have suffered their own personal tragedies or to those who put their lives on the line to protect our citizens from crime. Please understand that I was expressing my own personal frustration at my own personal circumstances. I in no way was intending to be malicious or harmful. I apologize deeply for this error in judgment.”















COMMENTS
Why in the hell did they ask for cam's opinion on snitchin anyway..
alot of ppl been goin @ his neck for his comments. When truth is any other rapper would have said the same thing. Jus had to be him to get the backlash for it. What hes saying is true... Maybe the words in the interview he used weren't the best.... Like the dude Wiz said, there needs to be a rule book to what Snitchin' REALLY is.
i thought it was pretty stupid for cam'ron to say that shit on national tv but i guess he redeems himself a little bit with that statement, it holds truth...even if his PAs made him do it lol
Who gives a fuck what Cam'RUN has to say anyways?? Fuck him.
Cam'ron didn't say this, his Public Relation firm did. Cause this statement sounds way too smart for cam'ron to say!
Ok....first thing...Cam'RUN is a bitch ass nigga, talking shit and then changing is heart...jaajaja...That nigga remind anotha bitch (boy)...
Cam'RUNNNNNN.......Nobody belive u...scary ass bitchhh, talk like a man, and maintain your word..
I rather die like a man..than live like a coward.....2PAC
Black people trying to imitate the Mob. The mob wouldn't put their business on national television.HaHaHaHa
YO, IT'S JUST LIKE PAM'RON TO SAY SOME SHIT AND THEN APOLOGIZE LATER.
BITCH ASS NIGGA ALWAYS RUNNIN FROM SOMETHING
LOL LOL LOL
BUT WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM A NIGGA THAT WEARS PINK
LOL LOL LOL
FAGGOT ASS NIGGA
Wow, the people on this site never cease to amaze me of how stupid they can sound. U can't win if you ain't G Unit on this site. Sad
CAM'RRRRRRRRUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
AND ONCE YOU READ THE STATEMENT, IT CONTRADICTS ALL THIS CURTIS SNITCH SHIT HE HAS BEEN TRYING TO PROMOTE. SO AFTER APOLOGIZING I WONDER HOW THIS FAGGOT ASS, PINK ROCKIN ASS NIGGA IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO TALK SHIT.
HOWEVER HE CAN DENY THE STATEMENT BECAUSE IT SEEMS TO ME THE PERSON WHO WROTE THIS WAS ARTICULATE AND HAD SOME FORM OF POST-HIGH SCHOOL EDUCATION. I KNOW CAMRUN'S DUMB ASS DIDN'T WRITE IT HIMSELF. LOL LOL LOL
Why are some of y'all niggas jumpin all over Cam.. The nigga believed people took what he said the wrong way, so he cleared it up and apologized to the people who took what he said out of context.. Those people got offended so he said sorry.. What's wrong wit that..
erybody on here hates on cam but half you bitch ass niggas wouldnt say it to his face get a fuckin life and get off his dick
damn every getting on cam but i bet if 50 cent went on their he would have said the samething and everybody woiuld have ate it up and sided with him yall are all mad biased
^^^^^you said that already.
Another question??
Why do so many of y'all love G-Unit??
i repeated it again because its the truth and you know that
i swear, this does not sound like its coming from camrons mouth. somebody must of typed this speech for him because dude is too cocky to all of a sudden become humble. and whats with all these rappers apologizing all of a sudden? they turnin marshmallow.
yea j-hov i just noticed that too...and anyone who goes at them is considered super wack org-unit stans hope they die or something
sorry to tell you, but this has nothing to do with 50 cent. and besides, i doubt he would say anything like this because in interviews he sounds a lot more intelligent than cam'runnnn. youre a pure hater, because you could have mentioned jayz, nas, jadakiss, eminem, young jeezy...anybody!!! an instead you dropping names. thats straight up IGNORANCE!
^^^^^^^^^^^
who are you talkin about
sorry to tell you, but this has nothing to do with 50 cent. and besides, i doubt he would say anything like this because in interviews he sounds a lot more intelligent than cam'runnnn. youre a pure hater, because you could have mentioned jayz, nas, jadakiss, eminem, young jeezy...anybody!!! an instead you dropping names. thats straight up IGNORANCE!
nigga what the fuck is you talking about you retard where did i say i hate 50..i said if 50 went on there he would have prolly would have said the samething and everyone would have been on his dick because yall are 50 lovers...and i know nas,jadakiss and young jeezy would have said the exact same shit because it would ruin their business as well too especially jeezy and jadakiss because they allways put shit out for the streets so if they get called a snitch nobody gonna fuck with them you idiot go run into on coming traffic dumb ass
but 50 didnt go on there. so like i asked before, what does 50 have to do with this? why did you bother putting his name out there? never mind, youre a dumb faggot, your avatar pretty much explains that goldie locks aka prince.
^^^^^lmao i guess u dont know how to red i said IF(SEE I CAPITALIZED IF SO U CAN SEE)5O WENT ON THERE...AND I JUST BROUGHT UP FIFTY BECAUSE THIS WHOLE PUBLIC BOARD IS ON HIS NUTS SO GOD DAMN MUCH...I HAVE NO PROBLEMS WITH 50...BUT YOU ESPECIALLY DICKRIDE G-UNIT LIKE THEY WAS A GOD OR YOU DO IT FOR COMPASSION...AND WH YARE U GETTING AT ME FOR DAVE CHAPELLE PRINCE WHEN U GOT A PICTURE OF A DAMN MONKEY(sorry banks lol)....LOL

yo i feel that camrun said some stupid shit trying to get his rep up but just ended up paying for it and now he had to say sorry which now makes him look like both a idiot and soft ass nigga that cant stand behind his own words so point is he is just a punk nigga wanting to be hard yo im out peace
Ya'll little kids will never learn. So it really doesn't matter what you say Bollas, they not gon give in cuz they too young to realize what they doin. All these niggas with G Unit avatars and shit... Lil ass niggas... BE YOURSELF LIL YOUNGINS.

Maybe it's just me but why do most of tha people on this post think that people are huge G-unit fans just because some of us feel it was tha dumbest thing ever for Camron to go on national tv and show how ignorant he is. Why do I say ignorant, well because we all knew he was going to have to apologize, well everybody knew that except him apparently...i mean this wasn't just tha dudes on tha block he was talking to, he was talking to all of White America who are looking for reasons to hate rap, and every mother choosing to watch in America. Now I don't believe that means I like G-unit, but I believe it warrants a "WTF" to Camron for doing that. I don't got no animosity towards Cam, I liked his track "Get em girls", but I felt he was hurting ever body including himself by saying that stuff, and now even with an apology they still looking at rappers like they're a joke.
PS, some of yall need to do like Katt Williams said and enjoy yall lives cuz some of yall sound like them dudes he was talking about who be acting hard at breakfast, gang banging on bacon and sh**...LMAO I ain't trying to question no "so called Snitch" stereotypes but this was a huge mistake on his part, and it can take a while to get rid of...Real Talk

I'm no dipset fan, but Cam'ron's cool, yall niggas be wildin on this forums. Cam'runnnn (nice pun).
But Cam'ron probably didn't care what kind of publicity he was getting from it. What less age 30 something white people buying his albums.
In other words his album sales didn't get hurt.
fuck that punkass tam'pon if he so street he wouldnt give a fuck wat people thought or if he offended anyone, i wonder if mister killa cam said sorry to family of people he killed (ha!)if ur gonna say something n expect people to take u seriously u cant go back on it tam'pon

fukk tha police......... fukk bush...n american government.. power to tha people.
now what's hurting his credibilty on the streets worst, he going on fox new to say something we don't already know and making a fool out his self, by saying some shit like that. He is such a fucking asshole. If anyone knows about fox new, they know that they are one of the most bias news station out there. they must have felt good after some shit like that happened. Camron is the snitch. Cause what the fuck would possesse u to go on fox and say some shit like that. I still don't understand the moral of the interview. Fox new use him as a geeni-pig, and make a fool of him everytime he goes there.

^^^^^this is exactly what im talking about. this article has nothing to do with 50, and people still manage to bring up his name. but nah, they aint haters. theyre the ones promoting his new album, and the first ones to buy it when it drops.
Ahem... You idiots are the same ones to bring up Cam'ron's name in a 50 Cent post. Dumb Asses.
Yall know cam didnt say any of that shit!!!!!!

Why in the hell did they ask for cam's opinion on snitchin anyway..
- Good point. You'd think they'd ask a true legend in the game, like a Nas, a Jay, a KRS, a Wyclef, an LL, etc.
WhoozThaBoss — about 18 hours ago
alot of ppl been goin @ his neck for his comments. When truth is any other rapper would have said the same thing.
- Well, we'll never know that, now will we? They should have had a forum of rappers, rather than just one. Seems like he represented the WHOLE Hip-Hop, which he doesn't. If anyone saw the clip, I liked the little young boy's comments. He was wayyyy on point. I was wit' Cam until the serial killer part. For the record, serial killers don't really operate in the middle of the hood. They usually operated in a secluded, wooded area, AWAY from the general public. But if you KNOW a serial killer lives next door to you, you'd move? If you knew 9/11 or Columbine or Virginia Tech was going to happen before it happened, you wouldn't say anything? To any proper authorities? Wow.

Another question??
Why do so many of y'all love G-Unit??
- You might as well STOP askin' the ? We've been goin' through that 4 months and months, to no avail.
Lastly, I want some1... ANYONE... to CLEARLY DEFINE:
A) SNITCHING
B) DRY SNITCHING
HE IS A REAL DUDE FOR APOLOGIZING. HE SAID SOME OF THE DUMBEST SHIT A RAP NIGGA EVER SAID ON NATIONAL TELEVISION EVER. HEARING HIM SPEAK REMINDS ME OF WHY I USED TO LIKE HEARING PAC CUSE PAC WASN'T ON THAT JOKER SHIT. AND AGAIN CAM WAS SNITCHIN ON EVERY HOOD IN AMERICA WHEN HE SAID ALL THAT SHIT.
Cam is fuckin stupid
REALRAPMD i hope you are still around for this. snitching is telling on someone either undercover or blatantly. dry snitching is when someone knows something is going down and hollas out to stop it from happening, it is a jail term...when two inmates are about to get down and one of them is shook he usually starts acting out to bring attention to the situation, because he knows if he makes enough noise the c.o.'s will come to his aid. like "fuck that shit, we aint got to go to no bathroom and talk, we can do this now!!!". perfect example of dry snitching. like when camron went on the radio saying "aint nothing gonna happen because police is watching and listening because my p.o. told me" thats dry snitching. let it happen. if you want to get down, you can take a walk somewhere discreet and get it poppin. but when you get to talking all emotional and loud trying to make something out of nothing, you are really a coward trying to hide the fact that you are. you understand??? alot of people dont and misuse it all the time. so now i hope you are educated. if you have any more questions let me know.
its like indirectly telling, without actually looking like your are being deliberate about it. its a real fish market move, and alot of people do it heavy, especially in the hip hop game. because most times police aint even looking, thats why most of them shootings go unsolved because they typically dont give a fuck. but if someone is making a whole lot of noise, but behind the scenes they aint poppin a grape. they are fronting ass dry snitchers....please spread the word. and thats why hip hop is dead.
realrapmd is part of the witness protection program squad investigation unit assembly. he knows about all types of snitching, just ask him. he's been tryna get people banned from defsounds for a while anyway.
is that true homie?
So, let me get this straight:
A) Snitching - Mrs. Jackson, Ricky has a whole bag of candy in his bookbag.
B) Dry Snitching - Mrs. Jackson, do you smell anything sweet in the air?
So if you indirectly alert the proper authorities to something, that hasn't happened yet, by your admission $Mack, then it's dry snitching. So when Cam said he saw some1 throw the Roc sign up be4 he got aired, then he wasn't dry snitching because it ALREADY happened? And, he wasn't snitching because he didn't say, "Jay-Z shot me." Correct or incorrect?
2ndly, in Juice, when the boy (I forgot his name) woke up from almost being killed by Bishop shooting him, and told that it was Bishop who shot everybody, was he snitching? (I used that ex. cause EVERYONE'S seen Juice.) If someone does something to you and/or your family or friends, and you know who did it, and you don't plan on taking the law into your own hands, do you tell who say, shot you, or your daughter? Or do you let it go and wait for "what goes around comes around?"
I was always under the assumption that "SNITCHING" was just telling stuff for no reason that ain't have nothin' to do with you. Like, I wouldn't call the cops and be like, "Such and such is on the corner bussin' a trap, right now", or, "the stash is hid behind the wheel on this car." That's wack. Or, if someone in my hood killed someone else in my hood, and everyone knows it, which they always do, you pretty much keep your mouth shut. But if I shot someone a fair one and they came back and shot me and I tell who shot me, how does that make me a snitch? Seriously. I'm not a killer. What am I gonna do, go shoot him back?
This is a touchy topic. You have to pick and choose the choices you make and how important it is to you and your physical well-being and of the people connected to you, to give up certain information about certain people. Correct me if I'm wrong.
A situation happened around here, last year, in Willingboro, NJ, where some Bloods shot two brothers, killing one, because they missed 3 consecutive meetings. Upon waking up from almost being killed, he couldn't wait to tell in court and to the police and his mom everything that went down. He lived, and told it all, down to who ordered the shootings, who actually made them, and who was all there. His brother is dead. He almost got killed. Is he a snitch? I need you, OR ANYONE, to break down this post and answer all my ?s.
We all know the repercussions that go down in the hood for bein a "RAT"... "SNITCHES GET STITCHES"... lucky IF they LIVE 2 get stitches... the hood is on the "why chance it?" typa policy.... like, I said, each individual has to know how really important it is to YOU to give up certain in4mation....
I remember another instance where me and my boys got caught in a stolen car and at the station all the cops really wanted to know was who was the driver. They came at me in a private cell with the okey-doke, "Ya boys already told us you were driving [which I wasn't], so you might as well just tell us what happened." I never ratted or said anything. All I said was, "I wasn't driving" and "I personally know none of them said I was driving because I wasn't driving." "So, tell us who was driving and you can go home." "I'll speak for myself. I wasn't driving." After about 2-3 hours, I was 18 so they released me on my own recognizance. Period. So did I "snitch" or "dry snitch"?
MONEYMACK I HOPE YOUR STILL AROUND FOR THIS. YOUR A BAMMA 4 WRITING THAT LONG ASS ESSAY. THIS IS SIMPLE, SNITCHIN IN THE HOOD, IN THE HOOD WHERE THEY DO THE MOST GOOD IS GIVIN POLICE ANY INFORMATION THAT CAN HELP THEM TO BETTER UNDERSTAND WHAT WE "IN THE HOOD" ARE DOING. WHETHER YOU GAVE THEM PEOPLE NAMES OR ADDRESSES DIRECTLY OR WHETHER YOU TELL THE WHOLE FUCKIN WORLD ARE CODE OF ETHICS. THEY KNOW NIGGAS DON'T SNITCH ALREADY BUT HIS BITCH IS DOESN'T HAVE TO HELP THE WHITE MAN ADVERTISE THIS TO THE WORLD. THAT IS JUST ADVERTISING FOR WHITE FOLKS TO TRY HARDER BECAUSE WE AREN'T HELPING. SO HE SNITCHED. ANYBODY IN MY COMMUNITY WHO WATCHED THAT AND DOES NOT LIVE MY KINDA OF LIFE IS AGAINST ME AS WELL AS THE POLICE.
Cam'ron Apologizes, why now? he already make the hip-hop community look stupid and reckless, i guess that's why they pick him for the interview. Dudes like Cam'ron need to grow up and be real leaders.30y/o man still talkiing like he still in high school. I'm street but i know how to seperate my self from that; when it come to representing my black people the right way. They except us to sound uneducated and Cam'ron bite the bate.
REALRAPMD, nigga shut up. we all know youre a jurisdictional watchdog for the defsounds witness protection program. member #423-761 since '07. you the one giving out names, addresses, social security numbers, phone numbers, and everything else in your so-called "hood." how you gonna snitch, and then act like you aint a snitch?
MRMR YOUR RIGHT ON POINT MY MAN. SEE I CAN TELL YOU KNOW WHATS UP. I WISH NIGGAS LIKE GAY-RILLA KID AND MINNIE - MACK WOULD TAKE SOME NOTES. FUCKIN DWEEBS
GUERILLA KID, UR LIFE SUCKS. LETS FACE IT EEH. YOUR ALWAYS FIRST ON THE MESSAGE BOARD. YOUR INFATUATED WITH CERTIAN INDIVIDUALS ON A RAP WEBSITE? COME ON MAN LIFE CAN'T BE THIS BAD. HEY SOMEBODY SET HIM UP A MYSPACE PAGE OR A BLACKPLANET PAGE ANYTHING TO GET HIM SOME PUSSY.
