Watching the Diplomats get back together was definitely one of my favorite Hip-Hop moments of 2010. As a teen, Dipset mixtapes, as well as the guys’ solo CDs were in heavy rotation at my parent’s crib. Before moving to New York on my own, before getting involved in journalism, the Dip’s music painted a crazy ass picture of the big city for me. Since ‘07, I’ve had the opportunity to interview Jimmy, Juelz, and Freekey on several different occasions, Killa still remains elusive, ahaha. But, anyway, 2010 also marked the year of Cam joining Twitter, leading us further in the absurdity that he calls everyday life. Just for laughs, we’ve put together a sizzle reel of Cam’s most hilarious Twitvid moments. Happy New Year guys. – Mikey Fresh
