Cam’ron responds to LiAngelo Ball’s comments, calls him a “Purse Snatcher” [VIDEO]

Cam’ron Fires Back at LiAngelo Ball After “Suck It or Not” Comments

Hip-hop icon Cam’ron has never been one to shy away from a challenge. Whether in rap battles or social media spats, he speaks his mind. Recently, he found himself in a war of words with NBA player LiAngelo Ball. This comes after LiAngelo made comments about Cam’ron’s relevance.

Ball is known for being part of the famous Ball family. Thus, he referenced Cam’ron’s track “Suck It or Not” as the only song he knew from the Harlem rapper. As a result, sparking a fiery response from Cam’ron on his popular sports podcast, It Is What It Is.

Cam’ron, who is also affectionately known as “Killa,” wasted no time in addressing the remarks. On the latest episode of It Is What It Is, Cam’ron and co-host Mase shared their thoughts on LiAngelo’s statement. Cam’ron took particular issue with Ball’s remarks, saying: “I only know you because your father, Lavar, is a marketing genius. If it wasn’t for him, you wouldn’t be on my radar.”

LiAngelo’s Comments About Cam’ron’s Music Career

LiAngelo Ball is the middle brother of the Ball basketball trio. He stirred up controversy during a casual interview where he said the only song he knew from Cam’ron was “Suck It or Not.” This song, a hit from 2006, is one of Cam’ron’s biggest singles. However, Ball’s comment implied a lack of awareness about the rest of the rapper’s extensive catalog, which spans decades.

Cam’ron is a member of the legendary rap collective Dipset, and his contributions to hip-hop culture go far beyond a single track. Fans quickly came to Cam’s defense on social media, with one person saying, “How can you not know more than one song from Cam’ron? He’s a legend!”

Cam’ron’s Hilarious Clapback

Cam’ron’s response to LiAngelo was as cutting as it was humorous. The rapper reminded Ball about his infamous 2017 incident in China. In China, he was caught shoplifting sunglasses while on a UCLA team trip. “I only know you for stealing sunglasses,” Cam’ron joked. “If it wasn’t for Trump being president, you might’ve had your fingers cut off.”

He continued with the roast, calling LiAngelo a “purse snatcher.” Also, he suggested that if Ball could steal sunglasses, he could steal a spot on an NBA team. Cam’ron didn’t stop there, throwing more shade at the young athlete. Cam pointed out that while his brothers, Lonzo and LaMelo, have made successful NBA careers, LiAngelo’s path has been rockier.

Social Media Reactions

Cam’ron’s takedown of LiAngelo Ball didn’t go unnoticed by the internet. The video clip of his response went viral, with fans weighing in on the drama. Here’s a look at some of the top social reactions:

• @SmoothVisionMedia: “I am so glad Cam & Mase got a show. This is what we’ve been missing!”
• @talkenhead87: “Ya lucky Trump was over there. You might’ve got your fingers cut off. 😂😂”
• @Raggamuffin007: “We got watered down around here. 😂 Cam is back on top with this one.”
• @kingjayrico3926: “You don’t even know the man’s name. 😂😂 Dead at Cam calling him a purse snatcher.”

The humorous nature of the roast had fans reminiscing about the golden era of The Diplomats, when Cam’ron was at the height of his rap career, known for his witty, savage punchlines.

LiAngelo’s NBA Career Compared to His Brothers

Despite LiAngelo Ball’s attempt to carve out his own career, his NBA trajectory hasn’t mirrored the success of his brothers Lonzo and LaMelo Ball. Lonzo, the eldest, has been a solid NBA player with stints in Los Angeles, New Orleans, and Chicago. Meanwhile LaMelo is currently a rising star with the Charlotte Hornets.

LiAngelo’s professional career has been marked by struggles. First, it was his UCLA suspension. After that, he was bouncing around between the G League and summer league contracts. Cam’ron didn’t hesitate to poke fun at this. Thus, implying that if LiAngelo were truly good enough, NBA politics wouldn’t stand in his way. “If you’re good enough, they’ll find a way to keep you on the court,” Cam’ron said on his show.

Cam’ron’s Take on LiAngelo’s Stealing Incident

Cam’ron brought up the notorious incident in China, where LiAngelo, along with two teammates, was arrested for stealing sunglasses. The controversy gained international attention. However, the players were later released after intervention from then-President Donald Trump.

“You’re lucky Trump was president,” Cam’ron said. “If it wasn’t for him, you might’ve lost your fingers in China.” The remark, delivered in Cam’ron’s signature comedic style, echoed a sentiment many fans remember from the early 2000s, when he was known for his sharp, unfiltered commentary.

The Success of “It Is What It Is”

Cam’ron’s podcast, It Is What It Is, has become a major hit among fans of both sports and hip-hop. Along with co-host Mase, another Harlem rap legend, Cam’ron has created a space where sports and culture collide in hilarious, unapologetic fashion.
