Cam says his lawsuit against J. Cole isn’t about chasing money, it’s about keeping your word. The dispute centers on “Ready ’24,” a track that ended up on Cole’s 2024 project Might Delete Later. Cam claims he recorded vocals and contributed lyrics back in June 2022, with the understanding that Cole would either return the favor with another collaboration later or appear on Cam’s It Is What It Is podcast. He alleges neither happened, and that the song was released anyway in April 2024. Cam is now seeking at least $500,000 in royalties, along with co-writer credit and a full accounting of what the record earned. The lawsuit was filed in New York in late October 2025, and Cole’s side has not publicly responded as of the latest reporting.
