Chad Ochocinco has fired back at Cam'ron for calling him out on a recent episode of It Is What It Is. The legendary NFL reciever gave a lengthy response to Cam while speaking with Shannon Sharpe on their show, Night Cap. In doing so, he downplayed the seriousness of the comments he made about Cam that set the Dipset rapper off in the first place.
Ochocinco began by explaining that he had to sit and think about what Cam had to say before issuing a full response. "I said, 'Cam, you're my mans and I'm coming for your spot.' I'm not sure how that's taken as hate when all you have to do is understand that I'm saying I'm coming for your spot because I see you as the standard that is setting the bar in that specific space. You took that as an insult which is weird to me. I'm not sure how you can do that. If you check the numbers, what I said I would do, I've already done and suprassed that in this specific space."
Why Are Chad Ochocinco & Cam'ron Beefing?
Cam'ron kicked off their beef, earlier this week, by revealing that he attempted to collaborate with Ochocinco shortly after starting It Is What It Is. "I don't really f*ck with Chad Ochocinco to be totally honest with you. He alright, but at the end of the day when we started this show, the n***a was hating from the very begining," he said. "... He comes outta nowhere talking about, 'Yeah, I'ma get myself back together and I'm taking Cam's spot.' Why the f*ck you gotta take my spot n***a?" He explained that he tried to call Ochocinco to discuss collaborating, but he told Cam to speak with his agent instead. "You so dumb you can't even speak for youself, stupid motherf*cker," he remarked.
As for that last point, Ochocinco also addressed that conversation on Night Cap. He explained that working through his team is simply how he does business. He noted that Shannon Sharpe went through his agent to get him on Night Cap as well.
