Cam’ron has teased an episode of his show Talk With Flee where J. Cole confronts him over the lawsuit the Dipset rapper filed against Cole.

In footage of the moment happening, Cam’ron is talking about why his partner couldn’t be a stylist when he’s surprised by Cole walking onto the set and giving him a stern look.

“What’s up, man?” asks Cam in the awkward moment, as Cole looks at him.

“I’m just saying, a lawsuit, bro? Lawyers?” Cole responds.

Cam lets the moment sit for a second before playing the whole situation off. “You know it wasn’t like that,” he retorts.

To see what really happened on set, you’ll have to tune in on Mar. 24 when it will be released on Tuesday at 10 p.m. ET.

Check out the clip below.

Last October, Cam sued J. Cole over their song “Ready ‘24,” claiming that the track was recorded in 2022 and Cole failed to follow through on his commitment over the next two years by failing to appear on his It Is What It Is podcast or collaborate with him on a song.

In the court documents, Cam alleged that Cole offered to collaborate with him on songs that he’d already recorded, but Cam wanted to partner on an original track that never came to fruition.

Cam also argued that he wasn’t properly compensated for his verse on “Ready ‘24,” so he asked to receive full accounting for the song’s earnings (which he thinks exceeds $500,000) and to be recognized as a co-author of the song.

In February, Cam addressed the lawsuit on Talk with Flee. "Me and J. Cole are cool, or was cool. This is exactly what happened. Being a man is keeping your word," Cam said. "And I know everybody's busy and everybody has things to do. But if I give you my word four or five times, I got to do it.

"So on his first project he did, I did an intro for him. ... I told him I may need a verse whenever I get a project done. He said, 'Cool,'" Cam explained. "He had another project. I did a record in 20 minutes. I knocked that shit out and went off about my business."

But when Cam returned to get a verse from Cole, the former alleges the latter needed to have his “chakras” right so he could put his “all into it.”

When the verse never worked, Cam sought to get the interview from Cole, which never worked out either.

Cole’s legal team responded to Cam’s lawsuit later that month, claiming that the latter appeared “Ready ‘24” “voluntarily and without condition.”

They also claimed that after the release of the track, Cam began to demand unreasonable conditions that Cole never agreed to, such as an “excessive fee inconsistent with industry standards for a featured performance.”

Cole also admitted that they spoke about him appearing on Cam’s podcast, but there were no promises made about when or if that would happen.
