KILLA-CAM TRIES TO BACK PEDAL!!
By L.T Dinwiddie
I’m going to have to file this in the “whatever file”!
Camron has just released a statement regarding his ignorant, offensive and downright dumb ass comments that he made on 60 Minutes this past Sunday on the “Stop Snitchin” movement that’s sweeping the inner city and is the current MO of rappers.
As previously reported on O1LT.com, Camron made the ultra-stupid comment that if he found his neighbor to be a serial killer that instead of calling the police, he’d just simply move.
In the wake of the Virginia Tech massacre, his statement hasn’t gone over well in terms of the public opinion. And it definitely isn’t helping Hip-Hops plight at the moment. In a statement released by his camp here’s what he had to say:
It’s clear that remaining relevant in the rap game far outweighs the act of good moral judgment. Oh and one more thing, How You Doing Camron!

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."It's sad the measure people will go to just to sell some records. At the end of the day I believe his original remarks. I don’t believe that he would call the police if he lived next to a serial killer.
"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," the rap star said in a statement issued today. "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."
It’s clear that remaining relevant in the rap game far outweighs the act of good moral judgment. Oh and one more thing, How You Doing Camron!
