A couple of days back I came across this throwback interview with Harlem’s own Cam’ron. At the 1:15 mark, Cam’ron lets the people know that he and Noreaga will be collaborating on an album entitled Starsky & Hutch. Intrigued, I hit up Noreaga on Twitter to ask him if this album was really in the works:
As we all know, this album never came to fruition. I wonder now, if this album did become a reality, what type of impact it could have made in Hip Hop. Personally I think the album would have been fire. Both of them were riding high at the time with Cam’ron receiving a gold plaque for Confessions of Fire and Noreaga receiving a platinum plaque for N.O.R.E. I’m sure some would want this collaboration to still happen today, but I wouldn’t be one of them. The album wouldn’t have the same type impact it could have had more than 10 years ago.
After the break, I have included the collaborations between Cam’ron and Noreaga so you could imagine what a full-length album could have been. Enjoy and be educated.
