Crime Pays, the new LP from Cam’ron, in stores May 12.

Cam’ron will make his small screen debut in an upcoming sitcom described as an all-black version of Curb Your Enthusiasm.

In an interview with the March issue of XXL, the former Dipset boss says he’s a big fan of the Larry David comedy and has incorporated some parts of the show into his own project, which he is presently pitching to network bosses.

“I got a sitcom coming out but we don’t have a title exactly to it yet. It’s like black Curb Your Enthusiasm.”

Cam admits his show could prove offensive to some members of the Jewish community, so he’s having the material checked over by his legal team.

“Right now while I’m writing my show, it’s a lot of stuff that has to do with Jewish people. So I called my lawyer, my man Andrew Bergman, and I’m like listen, would I be allowed to do this because I don’t wanna offend anybody.”

Crime Pays, Cam’Ron’s first album in three years, drops on April 24.

Listen To Cam’ron ‘Just Us’

Dipset before there was “Ballin!” Cam’ron and Jim Jones as kids. Awwwwz! They were so cute.

Spywitnesses are dishing that Jim Jones is kicking Cam’ron out Dipset.

According to Hot 97’s celebrity snoop, Miss Info, Jim is no longer speaking to Cam and has decided to distance the Dips head honcho from the rest of the cliche despite opposition from Juelz Santana and the other members of the crew:

“Me and Cam’ron havent spoken to each other in a year…. I kept quiet out of loyalty, I felt like if we cant be friends then at least we can do business together….But now I can’t be next to you….I’m through wit being in hot water because of you….We still the Diplomats. We worked too hard to achieve our own success and now we’re gonna do something new,” Jim says.

Jim went on to say that Cam’s ousting should serve as a “punishment.”

How are they throwing him out of a crew that he started? Whatev! It seems that last week’s alleged throwdown between Cam and Roc-La-Familia artist Tru Life (Ladies is he sexy or what!?) was the last straw.

Cam isn’t in NYC at the moment and thus hasn’t commented…..But knowing Cam’s mouth, that ought to be good.

Jim will likely spill more on Cam’s Dipset dismissal with Funkmaster Flex on Monday night. Be sure to tune into Hot 97.

Cam’ron and Tru Life last night has New York’s Power 105 morning show host Ed Lover grappling to get the two sides to sit down and make peace.

“What happened last night was Cam was standing in front of Club Stereo and Tru Life confronted him about what’s been going on back and forth on the mixtapes and they got into a physical confrontation. Pretty much Tru Life hit Cam, cops broke it up and everyone dispersed,” Ed Lover said on “Ed Lover Show with Egypt & Ashy” on Tuesday morning.

No one was seriously injured.

“As an OG in this business I have a lot of love for both camps and I’m trying to mediate this because it’s starting to get to a point where it’s getting out of hand now. The worst thing we need is somebody really getting seriously injured, having a little fight is one thing, but you know when it comes to that the gunplay comes into it. We don’t need that. Hip-Hop got enough problems right now, we don’t need another black eye because of some dumb beef. It can be squashed,” Ed Lover said.

Ed Lover says he plans to mediate the situation.

“It’s just a matter of getting dudes off that ‘f* the other dude’ thing and coming to a table and sitting down. I think I’ll be able to do that and with the help of some of the other OG’s in the business we’ll be able to do that,” Ed Lover explained. “We’re at a critical point with hip-hop right now. I feel like the future of hip-hop is riding on the moves that we make within the next couple months because Don Imus was slick enough to throw hip-hop in the pot. I know both of these camps and I’m trying to do as much as I can do to mediate and at least get some kind of dialogue.”

Cam’ron has come forward to clarify statements he made during Sunday night’s controversial episode of “60 Minutes.”

In an interview that aired on Sunday, Cam told “60 Minutes” correspondent Anderson Cooper that sales of his music would suffer and his “code of ethics” would be violated if he helped bring criminals and killers to justice or cooperated with police.

Cam’ron hired 5W Public Relations to help with the barrage of press inquiries he’s received since the interview aired on Sunday night.

“In 2005, I was a victim of a violent crime,” Cam’ron explained in a statement. “I was shot multiple times without provocation by two armed men who attempted to carjack my vehicle. Although I was a crime victim, I didn’t feel like I could cooperate with the police investigation.”

The Cam’ron interview was part of Anderson Cooper’s report on the concept of “snitching” and how certain artists’ message to shun the police has undermined efforts to solve murders across the country.

Cam’ron explained that the threat of violent retaliation in poor communities often keeps witnesses from coming forward to help police in their investigations.

“Where I come from, once word gets out that you’ve cooperated with the police that only makes you a bigger target of criminal violence,” Cam’ron explained. “That is a dark reality in so many neighborhoods like mine across America. I’m not saying it’s right, but it’s reality. And it’s not unfounded. There’s a harsh reality around violence and criminal justice in our inner cities.”

Cam’ron is quick to say that “my experience in no way justifies what I said” on 60 Minutes.

“Looking back now, I can see how those comments could be viewed as offensive, especially to those who have suffered their own personal tragedies or to those who put their lives on the line to protect our citizens from crime,” he stated. “Please understand that I was expressing my own personal frustration at my own personal circumstances. I in no way was intending to be malicious or harmful. I apologize deeply for this error in judgment.”
