You would think that after (1) being shot during an attempted car-jacking last year and (2) deciding to publicly attack Jay-Z on radio and in a song, Cam'Ron's Killa Season would be a tidal force of passion and/or venom. Instead, it sounds much like his last album, 2004's Purple Haze--perhaps too much. Killa Season's beats are surprisingly dull and anemic, using many of the same musical formulas from Haze, except now the sped-up soul samples and dramatic orchestral flourishes sound like retreads. The album's main saving grace is Cam'Ron himself. Even over tepid tracks, Cam still distinguishes himself as an entertaining lyricist, able to execute the most outrageous of boasts---whether crime, sex or style-related---with a deceptively simple flow that unfolds into a complex set of wordplay that would impress most linguists. It's just too bad this sounds more like a B-grade mix-CD than the tour de force Cam was prepping everyone for. --Oliver Wang

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible, May 26, 2006

By	R. Lopez - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

One of the worst albums i ever heard...Recycled songs, lyrics & concepts. The beats are terrible too. Ur better off getting Purple Haze, S.D.E., or Confessions Of Fire...

5.0 out of 5 stars Not for those who don't understand., August 1, 2006

By	S. Golden (New York, NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

First of all, for the amatures out there, Rap is hard to listen to. If your a rap skeptic, this is not the first cd I would give to you to listen (althought I played a couple tracks for my 16 year old sister and she got it). Start with someone real articulate with their words and their song formulas like Nas, 2pac or Guru/Gangstarr.

Cam'Ron on the other hand makes up his own flow, his own language and his own style. No one else sounds like Cam, (for sure you can hear his influences in his music, ever heard the irractic and genius syle of Ghostface?) Cam'Ron is one of the most hillarious rappers to ever make an album. You need to listen to this album and realize the humor that Cam'Ron puts into it. He is an amazingly talented lyricist, nearly everything he says could mean two or three different things, and don't think that anything in his music is there by accident. If you hated this cd maybe you're not quite ready for it. If you think this CD was 5 stars and can teach you lessons about how to live life, well, then I hope you lock your guns and don't have children. If you're a fan of rap music and take the lyrics for what they are, then you should be able to see the hillarity of what Cam has to say.

And if you dont like this post well then, Go get your wet wipes.

1.0 out of 5 stars Killah Season should be sat down., May 16, 2006

By	musicfan "afi" (Florida Usa) - See all my reviews

Killa Season is an awful follow up to 2004's classic purple haze, here we have cam'ron doing his usual idiotic shtick with plenty of awful songs, the beats are not as impressive as it was the last time, the lyrics are so intrusive, everything else was pathetically silly, this is not a good album for cam'ron.

Not only is this his worst album of his career, it is also heading on my list of the worst albums of 2006.

This is dreadful.

Big Thumbs Down for Me.
