When Vado emerged on Hot 97's Summer Jam stage Sunday performing his Cam'ron-assisted single "Speaking in Tungs," it was clear that the Tri-State area had love. But with a major-label deal with Interscope Records firmly in place, Cam is hoping his protégé gets more than just hometown support.
"It was great, but we still have a lot more work to do," the Dipset CEO said backstage at Summer Jam. "I appreciate everybody showing him love, and he's hot, but he hasn't even put an album out yet. I want to do three, four, five albums and come back and talk."

Since making a name for himself on Cam's 2009 Boss of All Bosses mixtape and its 2010 follow-up, Boss of All Bosses 2, Vado has become a fan favorite thanks to last year's "Speaking in Tungs" — the stand-out single off the Harlem rap rookie's retail mixtape, Slime Flu. Still, Cam insists that his vision for Vado is much bigger.
"I think it's still early. I'm happy he got his deal, I'm happy everybody's aware of him, I'm happy he's turned into a superstar, but I want to make him into a mega, mega superstar," he said.
Next up is Killa and Vado's Boss of All Bosses 3, the third installment in the duo's famed mixtape series. While the first two BOAB recordings were available for free online, Cam is planning a retail release for the latest mixtape, which will drop on Fontana, Universal Music's independent arm and be out this summer, according to Cam.
"The Boss of All Bosses 3 that me and Vado did is done," he revealed. "It's coming out in stores through Fontana, so we're just trying to get the date locked in, but it's done."

Slim Flu 1 and 2 were ***. Now he's with Khaled, I'll never check for him again. Good move on his behalf, Khaled NEVER gives up on his artists no matter how bad they are (Ace Hood)
 
Great move for Vado , its crazy how interscope had him on the shelf for a couple years but keef got a album release in months . Khaled will push for dude odee
 
Good move for Vado... Him signing with Khaled will definitely get him more exposure.

Looking forward to that Slime Flu 3 :Nthat
 
Nah i don't think Cam gonna be involved at all. Based off the interview it seems like cam just got into one of his moods where he wasn't working as heavy and was about to Juelz wateva lil bit of a wave vado had left :{

But i do think him having Khaled on his side will help him.... Along with having this new Regime at Def Jam help him

:lol you have no idea how the industry works... havent heard kanye remixing any vado tracks
 
checkin out the tape now. been a fan of vado. but i hope vado dont change his style too much. i dont want him to turn into juelz
 
Then why do you want him on a major? If they don't think you'll sell you won't drop.

So your telling me that A&Rs really thought Vado couldn't sell more than what Sosa just did ? Son would've probably sold more in the tri state area let's be serious time. After 3hunna, I don't like , love Sosa, and millions of bought views keef couldn't even sell anywhere near Rocky's debut which was leaked for more than a month. All I'm saying is that in ny, nj, ct, Philly, vado wouldn't have done bad for himself if he got a push and a release date one of these past summers
