CAM’RON QUIZZES MA$E ABOUT 50 CENT ‘SCOOPING’ HIM UP IN ‘WINDOW SHOPPER’ VIDEO
Cam’ron wants answers from Ma$e about his cameo in 50 Cent’s “Window Shopper” video.
The Dipset rapper read out the question from a viewer on Tuesday’s (November 28) episode of It Is What It Is, where he quizzed Murda about his role in the G-Unit honcho’s 2005 music video.
“The people want to know: in 50 Cent’s video ‘Window Shopper,’ what was your role exactly in that?” Cam asked his co-host while laughing hysterically. “They said he scooped you and took you shopping in the video. That’s what they told me — I haven’t seen the video in a while.”
“I’ma let you handle that,” replied Murda, who also found the question hilarious.
The former Bad Boy rapper didn’t offer an explanation behind his cameo in the music video, with Cam’ron letting his co-host off the hook by not probing any further.

“Window Shopper” arrived in 2005 as part of 50 Cent’s Get Rich or Die Tryin’ movie soundtrack.
The braggadocios anthem, which was also included as a bonus cut on 50’s sophomore album The Massacre, peaked at No. 20 on the Billboard Hot 100 and has since been certified platinum.
As for the video, which boasts over 240 million views on YouTube, Ma$e appears in the beginning of the visual alongside 50, with the rappers seen trying buy a pair of shoes in a swanky footwear store in Monaco.
After struggling to communicate with a French-speaking salesman, they’re eventually distracted by two video vixens and are later seen living the high life in the millionaire’s playground.
Other cameos in the video come from Lloyd Banks, Young Buck, Mobb Deep, M.O.P. and Olivia.
Ma$e was rumored to sign to G-Unit that year and appeared on the song “300 Shots” alongside 50 Cent, Young Buck, Mobb Deep, M.O.P., Tony Yayo and Lloyd Banks — but the deal never went through.
The Harlem native later revealed that Diddy, his former label boss, blocked the deal.
