The Roc-A-Fella legacy runs deep, living up to its once-described "Dynasty" status. At the onset, Cam'ron played a pivotal role in shaping the Roc empire, having signed to the label back in 2001. It wasn't long before Come Home With Me became a pivotal piece in the Roc canon, with appearances from Jay-Z, Memphis Bleek, Beanie Sigel, Kanye West, and Just Blaze. The label would eventually succumb to drama and shifting allegiances, with power alternating at the drop of a hat. After spending a brief tenure as Vice President of the Roc, Cam would eventually go on to leave in 2005, after Jay-Z took control of the label in a Def Jam deal. As the tension hit an apex, the once-allied Cam and Jay found themselves at odds, an animosity that would linger for over a decade.
