Sweet Baby Jesus this Cam’ron x Vado “Sour Life” is Terrible

What the fuck is on Cam's head? Is that a bandana visor?)

I don't know why I do this to myself, and by extension you, but I just can't help but maintain to find the most atrocious rap song of all time. In many ways being that bad is just as hard as being that good. So while it's not like I have high expectations for new Cam'ron and Vado records, "Sour Life" is a travesty even by their low standards. But where does it rank among historically bad records?

Like a dope song, this one's terribleness can be blamed on equal parts production and flows. That homeless man's version of "Hard Knock Life" beat makes me want to punch a baby, and it's not like the two gentlemen involved do the track any favors. Cam's not even in "so bad it's secretly good" mode, and I'm still not sure why some folks seem to be so stoked on Vado. Let's place it against the two other most hated records in RefinedHype history - "Shades" and "Perfect Day" - and see how it fares.

Originality	Hardest poll Refined Hype has ever seen. My God. I'd rather listen to "This is Mixxie" or the other one by that kid all day than this. Goin' with "Shades" btw.

HershBar007	There's no doubt, that a lot of inspiration of the beat came from Hard Knock Life, but I just don't know, I kinda of like it. Don't care for the lyrics, but I think it's somewhat of a start to a potential better song.

HershBar007	Ok, I listened to Perfect Life, and I did the same thing with Shades I believe. I think I'm taking this "So bad it's good" concept too far.

Favilla	I don't see why perfect life was that bad

Nathan S.	^ Really? Because Perfect Day sounds like B.o.B., if B.o.B. was a talentless hack.

PurpleKushY	This songs aight.. mind you, I'm off a half fifth of henny and 3 blunts of kush... but it's listenable.

Daryl Gardner	The only reason I liked that beat is cause it reminded me of Hard Knock Life...then I listened to Hard Knock Life. This songs lameeeeeeeee. Shades is the winner in the poll though, cause that had guests and a place on Last Train, whereas this has sprung a leak and might never have meant to be released. So Diddy wins, or loses, whichever way you look at it.

d-mac	this was like a bay of pigs assault on my ear drums. Shades is worse though.

Nathan S.	Wow, it's crazy to think that Diddy and Lil Wayne managed to make the consensus pick for worst song in RefinedHype history. Anti-congratulations gentlemen.
