Cam’ron recently elaborated on why he decided to file a lawsuit against J. Cole over their “Ready ’24” collab on an episode of Talk With Flee.

The Harlem rapper explained that he filed the lawsuit to get the Carolina rapper’s attention after being given the runaround when he needed the favor returned of either a feature or an interview on one of his talk shows.

“I never ever wanted to do anything as far as a lawsuit was concerned,” he began. “This is exactly what happened, just so you know, and I don’t really care anymore; it was just more to get his attention. Not saying that I don’t need to be compensated for what I do or do what you say you’re gonna do. And to me, being a man is keeping your word, and I know everybody’s busy and has things to do and so on and so forth. But if I give you my word four or five times, I gotta do it one time outta the four or five times.”

He added that when Cole asked for a favor, he was able to deliver in a timely fashion. “So, on [The Off-Season], I did an intro for him. He needed it within 24 hours. Luckily I was in my home studio… I called my engineer over, knocked it out and gave it to him. Cool. I told him I may need a verse whenever I get a project done. He said, ‘Cool.’” Cam then brought up how he recorded his feature on “Ready ’24” in 20 minutes after meeting up with Cole and Cordae at a studio in New York City. “I knocked that sh– out and went off about my business,” he said before mentioning that he asked Cole for a verse in return.

However, when the time came, Cam joked that he told him that, “The chakra ain’t right right now, you know the moon gotta align with the stars. When I write I put my all into it.” With Cam then responding with, “OK, let’s put your all into it. Give me that first. You called me twice to do something, and I did it. One day you have 48 hours to do it. Then I knocked the other thing out as soon as I came to New York, because you ain’t wanna send me your record, you wanted to be in the studio with me. I knocked it out. Cool, you don’t give me the record, which is fine. Then I say, forget the record. Let’s do an interview.”
