Good Cam interview

[Cary Kollins]

A few classic Cam'isms in there.

GG: Favorite spots in Charlotte for food and fashion?

CN: We have a very incredible mall, South Park Mall. They have many of high-end stores.

I am a foodie myself; I don’t eat meat so that kind of limits a lot. There is actually a place in Charlotte called “Bean,” a vegetarian-vegan place, and there is a burger made from seasoned soy. If you bite into it, you cannot tell me that I’m not eating a double cheeseburger with bacon. I would advise you not to open it, because it looks kind of sketchy, but close your eyes and eat it—oh my god—it tastes extremely well done.

GG: What’s blasting in your headphones before hitting the field?

CN: It all depends on the time. It’s the calm before the storm; I am a big advocate of that. I am very religious, and having my faith in being a Christian and also playing on Sundays, I have to bring in some type of gospel music to get my mind right.

As I am getting taped, going through therapy right before I take the field its kind of like the real soft motivating music that makes me think or visualize what I am expecting to do that day. When I actually go out on the field not with the team but for my own repertoire, its straight killin music—rock & roll to rap and hip hop to something that’s upbeat, fresh and urban mainstream.

GG: Favorite musicians?

CN: Diddy is going back to Puff Daddy now! He has some great music that’s coming out. Obviously Meek Mill, him and I have been partnering up. I am from Atlanta, so I can’t go far without hearing southern music from Jeezy, T.I., Gucci Mane, 2 Chainz, Future, the list goes on.

One of my core sponsors is Beats by Dre and I have the luxury to have great equipment while I am listening, so whether I am playing Adele, Lenny Kravitz, Beyoncé, Rihanna or Katy Perry, its blasting at a high volume.

That was good.

[Cary Kollins]

Really great message.

It’s embarrassing that with me going out and finishing my college education, I find out that college drop out rates are at an all time high. Just with that same fact you find it’s an all time high of childhood obesity. By the time most kids hit the age of 10, they are about 5-10 pounds overweight. And now, with the society that’s a different breed where Instagram, Twitter, reality TV, Playstation and Xbox are having these kids hypnotized as well as the adults–it is consuming everyone’s time.

"I AM TRYING TO HELP THESE KIDS REALIZE THAT WITHOUT EDUCATION, THERE IS NOT A LOT YOU CAN DO. BUT WITH EDUCATION, THERE IS PRETTY MUCH NOTHING THAT YOU CAN’T DO."

I am trying to empower them to get out, eat healthy as well as stay healthy.

[Kakarot]

I wonder what kind of venture him and Meek Mill going into. Didn't even know Cam was a Guwop fan. That's what's up!

Good interview tho!

[BANE]

Great interview.

 

Cam better be careful though, the media already hates him as it is, if he keeps bringing up the fact he's Christian, well they're really gonna be on the dude.
