I love Mase as an artist and a human he was different unique and his style everybody copied his style I was telling kats that a long time ago and still now💯🎤🎶🙏🏿🙌🏿💲
Like i tell everyone, Mase is the one who put all these dudes on. WIthout Mase there will be no Cam, and no dipset. I hate to put it that way but it's the truth. Mase opened the lane but it's sad when friends fall apart. That's what money do to you.
@rikadojean-jacques3928 They made up realizing they're better off making money together than to be nearing 50 years old, still beefing like kids. Collectively? Their knowledge about music and culture is unparalleled, unlike most millennial podcasts who don't have the inside scoop the way Ma$e and Cam can provide.
@kia112 He is walking around with him because mase is helping market him before his album comes out. Its called marketing and promotion! The more cam is seen with mase, the more people will be able to recognize him before his album dropped. And on top of that they were best friends, why not let your friends be on tv with you? dumb caption smh.
Forget Jim jones don’t mention him he is a hater after all these years he need to actually watch these old videos of himself and his old friends from Harlem
I remember my mom picked me up from school an took me to McDonald's and home this was on she knew mase and cam was my favorite rappers she was shocked when I knew more about cam I always liked cam better I was 8 I taped this episode
guess you never heard of an entourage? If BIG was rolling with Lil Cease, D-Roc, and Black Rob would you ask the same question? FYI, Cam and Mase were high school bball stars in Harlem. Cam got a small scholarship down in Dallas while Mase went to ATL and came back and started rapping with the Best Ballers Out crew and Cam started rapping when he came back after about two years in school and he inspired Big L to start rapping and they formed the Children of the Corn which disbanded in 97 when Bloodshed died. BIG knew of Big L through Jay-Z and that allowed Mase to sneak into a Bad Boy show backstage and he freestyled for Puff and Puff signed him on the spot and then Ma$e was doing stuff like this, bringing Cam and the early Diplomats around everywhere to get them exposed and BIG instantly fell for Cam's style and got him signed to Lance "Un" Rivera, (who A&R'ed BIG and Jay-Z), at Epic in 97
You got it wrong. Big L inspired Mase and Cam to start rapping. there career was towards basketball until L inspired them thats why Mase copied L's style
sonickidd4 yall both right, Mase was in a crew called Billionaire Ballaz or something that had clout among Nas, Kool G Rap, DITC, etc and then he joined Children of the Corn but his connections with some of the Uptown people got him backstage at a 112 concert where he bumped into Puff and spit a couple of freestyles and Puff bought him a plane ticket to New York that night to sign the contract the next day
You wrong that not how mase got the bad boy deal or into bad boy his sister knew a guy who used to be road manager to biggie went to Atlanta to sign with jermaine at first until they bump into puff that how he got the deal
I've never heard Mt. Vernon referred to as Uptown. In a formal sense, Harlem, Washington Heights; and Inwood are considered Uptown. In an informal sense or street sense, the South Bronx is considered Uptown as well.
lol at the ETA: It's just a crew. Ma$e was poppin' - he just got his boys on camera. On a side note: I used to love Big Lez when I was a lil kid. I'm 28 now - she should look me up.
My sister had damn near the Bad Boy catalog: From _No Way Out_ to _Harlem World_ to _Money, Power, Respect_ to _Kima, Keisha and Pam_ and those albums are timeless classics. Diddy dropped the ball SMH.
@josenatera1028 He said BadBoy/UnTertainment...Untertainment was Biggie and Lance "Un" Rivera's label and Big was signed to BadBoy and he signed Cam'Ron to UnTertainment.
Big Les a squirrel trying to get nut!! Her words not mines. Jimmy jones looking sweet as Mountain Blast Kool Aid and got the nerve to talk down on Mase but he allowed him to get air time even back in 97. Hit Harlem world on Rap city in 97 and Jim Jones. Plus brought Cam to BIG in late 97 for a record deal. He coulda blown and left but set off many careers from neighborhood. It’s sad how they played him.
@kia112 Mase and Cam'Ron went to school together. Mase and Cam'Ron were also on the same high school basketball team. Ma$e (Murda Ma$e), Cam'Ron (Killa Kam) and Cam'ron's cousin (Blooshed) were in a group with Big L before Big L came out: Children Of The Corn.
@TheEsquire212 No, I still don't know why he's walking around with him. Was he bored? Did he need a ride? Did they have plans after this show? Were they about to go shopping? Was he scared? Enlighten me.
I TOTALLY AGREE WITH MASE. I WANT TO SAY MY HOOD NORTH TRENTON SO PEOPLE FROM NORTH TRENTON CAN BE HAPPY THAT THEY FROM NORTH TRENTON!! Prediction 2014.
Not true can had a deal with freeze records before mase but lost it cuz his cuzin died cam was in a bidding war in 97 he just choose un because he wanted to be loyal to biggie
Glad mase & cam are friends again
mase is one of my favorites ever
Jim Jones in the back really to yell “bethea that’s you bethea” lol
Lmfao 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@Relentless0521 😂😂😂😂
I love Mase as an artist and a human he was different unique and his style everybody copied his style I was telling kats that a long time ago and still now💯🎤🎶🙏🏿🙌🏿💲

Jim Jones looked the same even back then. Cam looked mad young
Just Another FAKE BLOOD
Jim Jones looking salty in the back

Mase still my all time favorite
Like i tell everyone, Mase is the one who put all these dudes on. WIthout Mase there will be no Cam, and no dipset. I hate to put it that way but it's the truth. Mase opened the lane but it's sad when friends fall apart. That's what money do to you.
Children of the Corn all day!
R.I.P, Big L,the illest from C.O.C
And ofcourse Bloodshed, "Coming out of Harlem, the land of the stardom"!
damn Cam and Mase really was close friends at one point
They friends again they made up
@@rikadojean-jacques3928 that what up💯✊🏿
@@andrewilliams4180 they both knew biggie and their friends with his people
They now have a successful podcast together

Mase is a very intelligent dude thats why God is using him.
lol he looked dead in her face and was like "somebody gonna blow" lol
Jimmy, you changed jimmy, ima pray for you
why is cam's arm around her, he wanted some groupie love too?
I miss rap music
"I ain't always hustle, I was Mase muscle" - Cam'ron
He was like a 90s Heartthrob for black girls.
Great video it's prophetic as well. He does have something for the world to hear.
i dont know if Cam became more successful then Mase but they both became pretty famous and made good music.
Happy Birthday Mase.

Forget Jim jones don’t mention him he is a hater after all these years he need to actually watch these old videos of himself and his old friends from Harlem
Good ol days plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz come back

You got it wrong. Big L inspired Mase and Cam to start rapping. there career was towards basketball until L inspired them thats why Mase copied L's style
***** He ran into big L before he did puff. When he was rapping with big L thats when his style was crazy nice because he got his style from Big L
sonickidd4 yall both right, Mase was in a crew called Billionaire Ballaz or something that had clout among Nas, Kool G Rap, DITC, etc and then he joined Children of the Corn but his connections with some of the Uptown people got him backstage at a 112 concert where he bumped into Puff and spit a couple of freestyles and Puff bought him a plane ticket to New York that night to sign the contract the next day

Wasn’t at 112 concert it was at jermaine birthday party in Atlanta where he puff

Mase is great
Everybody gettin autocorrected in these comments 😂😂
@josenatera1028 He said BadBoy/UnTertainment...Untertainment was Biggie and Lance "Un" Rivera's label and Big was signed to BadBoy and he signed Cam'Ron to UnTertainment.

He coulda blown and left but set off many careers from neighborhood. It’s sad how they played him.
"You dont wana rap for me?"

Mase = legend
@kia112 Mase and Cam'Ron went to school together.
Mase and Cam'Ron were also on the same high school basketball team.
Ma$e (Murda Ma$e), Cam'Ron (Killa Kam) and Cam'ron's cousin (Blooshed) were in a group with Big L before Big L came out: Children Of The Corn.

Why is everyone all over Big Les??
