With its string of soul samples, the second volume in Cam’ron’s *1st of the Month* series puts the rapper in his best and most timeless light. “Sweetest” and “Lala” are instant classics that could have come from any point in Cam’s career, except for the fact that his unhurried, wizened flow gives them a weight that wasn’t there in his first albums. He raps from the heart, while his language remains ensconced in the latest verbiage of the streets. A high stylist to the core, Cam’ron selects words the way most rappers choose designer clothes.
