Craig Antoine Miller (born October 24, 1971), better known by his stage name Kam, is an American rapper from Los Angeles, California. He was known for his Nation of Islam-influenced lyrics, and affiliation with his cousin Ice Cube. Kam has a powerfully commanding baritone voice and uses multisyllabic rhymes.
Kam made his debut mainstream appearance on the song "Every Single Weekend" from the 1991 Boyz n the Hood soundtrack. He released his well-received debut album, Neva Again, in 1993. The album featured inflammatory anti-government lyrics, and had a hit single with the song "Peace Treaty", a song about the 1992 Watts gang treaty. The song reached #2 on the Hot Rap Singles chart in 1993. He released his second album, Made in America, in 1995, and his third, Kamnesia, in 2001.
He is currently signed to his own record label, and plans to release his fourth solo album in the near future. He is a member of the supergroup Warzone alongside MC Eiht and Goldie Loc.
