Cam'ron "Welcome to New York City" (Treacy version)

Another in the sociopolitical series of videos by Dr. Patrick Treacy. It defines a commonality between the music of the street in New York and the Government problems of America. The video author lived in both New York and Baghdad for a period and is well placed to analyze the problems that now face both cities that are presently pitched in battle against each other. Background music by rapper and songwriter Cam'ron, founder of the hip-hop group The Diplomats, commonly known as Dipset. was born in Harlem, New York. He went to school at Manhattan Center High School, where he would meet his long time friends Mase and Jim Jones. He began his musical career in the mid 1990s, rapping alongside Big L.

Thanks for that. It's wonderful to get it exactly as the artist meant it to be. I'm going to post Jay Z with myself together in New York as a video response
