New york: Cam'ron, the renowned rapper from New York, has created a stir by revealing his decision to file a lawsuit against fellow artist J. Cole. The lawsuit seeks $18 million for breach of contract related to their collaboration on the song "Ready '24".

According to Thai News Agency, the controversy began when Cam'ron discussed the issue on the podcast "Talk With Flee", explaining the origins of the dispute. The initial agreement was a traditional trade-off common in the rap industry: Cam'ron would contribute a verse to J. Cole's song, and in return, Cole would either collaborate on one of Cam'ron's tracks or give an interview on his podcast "It Is What It Is".

Cam'ron claimed that he swiftly fulfilled his part by writing and recording his verse in just 20 minutes. However, when it came time for J. Cole to honor his end of the deal, Cam'ron was met with excuses, including references to the ongoing feud between Drake and Kendrick Lamar, which Cole used to avoid media appearances.

The situation escalated further when Cam'ron attempted to arrange an interview with J. Cole during the height of the Drake-Kendrick drama. Cole refused, asserting he couldn't participate in any interviews without facing questions about the high-profile feud. Despite Cam'ron's assurances that the topic would not be broached, Cole remained steadfast in his refusal.

Feeling frustrated by the lack of reciprocity and the absence of compensation for his contribution to "Ready '24", Cam'ron chose to pursue legal action. The lawsuit not only seeks financial recompense but also aims to establish his rights as a co-creator of the song. Cam'ron concluded his remarks on the podcast with a pointed comment, emphasizing the importance of honoring agreements promptly.
