Cam’ron is an iconic figure in Hip Hop, and he is best known for forming The Diplomats in 1997 with his Harlem childhood friend Jim Jones. Cam’ron, often referred to as Killa Cam, has given Hip Hop classics like “Hey Ma” and “Oh Boy.” Aside from being a pivotal player in establishing a new East Coast wave in rap music, Killa Cam is known for his unique fashion sense. Cam’ron has been spotted in oversized garments with vibrant prints and colors over the years.
