Cam James on SoundBetter

My voice is the hook, and can't be imitated. Credits include multiple Netflix films and shows, international ad campaigns and YouTube series, corporate voiceover work and more. I do not offer cover services, and prefer to write my own lyrics.

For music clients: If you're looking for the best lyricism SoundBetter has to offer, look no further. After launching my songwriting career via sync deals in Netflix properties, I've completed top-rated jobs for 40 clients and counting since my days on Fiverr. My individual credits include a commercial for Visit The USA and Spotify, a song placement on BET's Being Mary Jane, Netflix's Grand Army & OWN's Queen Sugar. Catch listeners' attention with my voice, and convince them to stay with the powerful lyricism that's become my hallmark.

For voiceover clients: I've done corporate voiceovers for clients such as the Vandyk Properties construction company (it's on their homepage now), and modern, urban voiceovers for nonprofits and local businesses. Ask about samples, I'll gladly provide some!

    I have run out of words to describe Cam, and over the work done i like to believe we've become brothers.
    Its crazy how somebody can know so much about rap!
    Cam is the closest on this site i can say has mastered "The art of Rap"
    I don't say that about just anyone, its as close to impeccable as can get!
    Work with him asap!

    IF ONLY I COULD GIVE SIX STARS - This was my second time working with Cam, and he is the absolute best you will find, in my opinion. Great communication, he listens to details, and makes certain that you are satisfied with the results. Collaborating on music should always be fun, and both times working with Cam has been a fun experience. Keep up the great work brother!

    Cam James is fast and professional to work with and knows how to make solid bars. I would definitely recommend James Cam if you want something unique that makes the song sound like a hit!

    This guy definitely knows what he's doing and his flow is sick and a great ear for lyrics and music in general. My track needed 2 verses and I gave him the freedom to do whatever he wanted (my preference) and he basically killed it on the first take. Highly highly recommend. 10/10

    AMAZING WORK! I have to say honestly I was far more impressed than I expected to be, you could tell that time went into the verse followed by an amazing execution, I'm glad to have found and worked with Cam and definitely will be working on future projects together, highly recommend...

    Cam is a legend. Really good at what he does, and delivered super quick. Would highly recommend.

    I have worked on several tracks with Cam. He is true to the art, a master lyricist.
    I am obsessed with perfection and i was mindblown. That goes to show how good he is.
    I could go on and write much more, but im going to stop here.
    Just contact him, sit back for a day or two then come and give me the thanks for recommending.

Interview with Cam James

  1. Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

  2. A: I founded an indie label based in Atlanta, GA a few years back. Our artists were incredibly talented and we tried our best to give them a support system to take off, but it didn't pan out. I'm proud of myself for trying; not every venture will become a success.

  3. Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?

  4. A: Some engineers I've considered working with, but that's it. I'm a lone operator.

  5. Q: What do you bring to a song?

  6. A: 1. A strong, defined rap voice that's impossible to imitate 2. Years of writing experience resulting in clever, impressive verses/hooks 3. 40+ perfect ratings from Fiverr clients, 16 on SoundBetter 4. Deep understanding of musicality from an extensive discography as a successful solo artist

  7. Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

  8. A: AKG C414 Condenser Mic, KRK Rokit 5 Monitors, Mac Studio, Focusrite Scarlett 2i2i

  9. Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

  10. A: OutKast, Nas

  11. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

  12. A: Hip-Hop songwriting and performances with original lyrics. I've done a few voiceover jobs as well and can deliver a professional tone or modern "cool" voiceover.

  13. Q: What are you working on at the moment?

  14. A: Built my own company with co-founders since 2021. Currently looking for my next challenge.

  15. Q: Analog or digital and why?

  16. A: Either works. I'm comfortable with the results I've received in both formats and have songs released that were mastered both ways.

  17. Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

  18. A: Whatever I create will be on par with major label talent, and will be better than any other rappers on here. I'm not a bargain bin artist, the prices listed are a deep discount compared to what I typically receive to write songs.

  19. Q: What do you like most about your job?

  20. A: Freedom and self-sufficiency. I'm the reason for my success or failure.

  21. Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

  22. A: Can you imitate ________ on this? Answer: no Can you rap my lyrics? Answer: no Can I list you as a feature on streaming services? Answer: ask before doing so, it depends.

  23. Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?

  24. A: People think rap is easy. It can be, but easy rap usually sucks. We put just as much work into a cohesive album as any of your favorite artists in other genres.

  25. Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

  26. A: Vision for the track, mood/tone, duration, preferred turnaround, intended audience

  27. Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

  28. A: Have a precise idea of what you want your song to be, and give me as many details as possible.

  29. Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?

  30. A: Harry Potter books, dumbbells, tent, bluetooth speaker...and a phone to get me off the island

  31. Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

  32. A: I've been doing this about a decade. I started in spoken word, but didn't fit in since my delivery was closer to Nas than a slam poet. Made the transition to rap and got gradually better as I accomplished major milestones and released albums.

  33. Q: How would you describe your style?

  34. A: Lyrical emotional rap for people who don't like emotional rap.

  35. Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?

  36. A: OutKast. Their diverse array of genre influences and mastery of wordplay would present a challenge.

  37. Q: Can you share one music production tip?

  38. A: Rapping is voice-acting. If you're not delivering it as if you believe it, the listener can tell.

  39. Q: What type of music do you usually work on?

  40. A: Hip-Hop/Rap

  41. Q: What's your strongest skill?

  42. A: Writing rap verses/hooks, R&B hooks

  43. Q: What's your typical work process?

  44. A: Instrumental first, then write entire song based on client's preferred topic.
