TS: Cam'ron's Purple Haze vs. Hendrix's "Purple Haze"

Sure, "Purple Haze" is considered one of the best songs ever or something, but I think anyone would admit that Purple Haze is pretty damn entertaining. Have at it!

(Secondary question: Since we're comparing an album and a song, would you rather listen to "Purple Haze" 25 times in a row, or would you rather listen to Purple Haze once the whole way through. Both would take about the same time.)

Cam also has a song called "Purple Haze" (although it's on Diplomatic Immunity instead of the album of the same name).

Yeah I know, but I thought this question was more fun, plus I figure it might be a more even debate that way. More people have probably heard the album than the song, too.

ok. I'm alright with Cam and call me rockist or whatever, but the Hendrix song pwnz.

no one wants to hear any song 25 times in a row so cam should easily win.

Honestly one of my least-favorite Hendrix tracks, not trying to be smash-the-rockist at all here, I just wouldn't mind going through life without hearing Jimi's "Purple Haze" again.

There's no doubt whatsoever that Sigel is better than Cam'ron.

So I kind of find it hard to believe more people would have heard that Cam'ron record than the song "Purple Haze". EVERYBODY's heard that song.

No, more people have probably heard Cam'ron's album Purple Haze versus his song from the Diplomats album mentioned above.

I'm down with Beanie too.

Its a weird comparison! I don't think sigel is clearly better than cam tho.

Sigel just sort of comes with that "shut the fuck up and listen" vibe. Cam doesn't.

(this is probably a personal preference thing) Even on "Get Em Girls"?!
