Cameron Giles (born February 4, 1976), better known as Cam'ron or Killa Cam, is a popular African-American rapper from Harlem, New York. Cam'ron is the head of the musical group "The Diplomats", better known as "Dip Set." The group consists of Juelz Santana, Jim Jones, as well as currently incarcerated member Freekey Zeekey. Hell Rell is a member of the Diplomats record label. Recently he was released from Clinton Correctional Facility.
Cam'ron began his career in the early 1990s, rapping alongside Big L, Ma$e and his cousin Bloodshed in a group called "Children Of The Corn." The group dissolved after Bloodshed's death in a car accident in 1996. However, Cam'ron continued to rap, and he eventually was introduced to Notorious B.I.G., who was so impressed with his skills that Biggie introduced him to his manager, Lance "Un" Rivera. Cam'ron signed to Rivera's Entertainment label, releasing his first solo album, Confessions Of Fire, in April 1998. The album featured such hits as "3-5-7" and "Horse And Carriage," featuring his old friend, Ma$e. Unfortunately, Untertainment folded in 1999, and Cam'ron was forced to change labels. The same year, he signed to Sony Records.
