Cam’ron Confirms 50 Cent Owns “Paid In Full” Rights, Teases Alpo-Era Content

In a revealing new interview on The Breakfast Club, Cam’ron opened up about several high-profile projects, industry disputes, and his evolving strategy around music, media, and legacy. Here’s what he shared — and what it might mean for the upcoming Paid In Full revival.


50 Cent, Paid In Full, and the Alpo/DC Chronicles

One of the biggest revelations: Cam’ron confirmed that 50 Cent now controls the rights to Paid In Full, the classic film that Dame Dash once co-produced. Cam said the project won’t move too fast — “he’s gonna slow the movie down” — as they plan to chronicle the story of Alpo Martinez’s time in Washington, D.C., especially focusing on his relationship with Wayne “Silk” Perry.

This aligns with earlier reports that Paid In Full will be revived as a series or dramatic property under Fif’s oversight, with Killa Cam (Cam’ron) having a role in its production.

Cam’ron’s confirmation adds clarity to a project long shrouded in speculation. It also places him deep in what could become a key chapter of hip-hop’s cinematic legacy.


Why Cam’ron Isn’t Chasing Albums for Now

Cam’ron explained that traditional albums no longer move the needle financially unless paired with touring, merchandise, and brand tie-ins (0:48). He still freestyles frequently, but sees studio albums as having a short shelf life (1:34).
This approach reflects how many veteran artists are rethinking the economics of music in the streaming era.


Unreleased Records with Mase & Moving Past Tension

In one surprising revelation, Cam’ron said he and Mase have 19 unreleased songs together — yet Mase is inconsistent about releasing them (1:44).
Cam credits Gillie Da Kid and Wallo for helping broker their reconciliation and bringing Mase into their joint show, It Is What It Is (4:47). He says the show was born because he loved debating sports and built a set; eventually he asked Mase to join as co-host (5:31).


Building His Team, Defending Treasure

Cam’ron also highlighted his efforts to empower his inner circle, particularly Treasure, who hosts her own show, Check Out the Stat (7:33).
Addressing a viral moment between Treasure and boxer Adrien Broner, Cam said he repeatedly asked Broner to stop disrespecting her and ultimately asked him to leave (8:26).


Entrepreneurship & Comedy Moves

Away from music, Cam’ron introduced Pink Horsepower, an all-natural supplement from Africa, which he claims has generated notable financial success (11:23).
He also spoke about stepping into comedy, with his upcoming Killer Comedy Show at the Beacon Theater, inspired by comedian Joe Vesey and his cameo in Happy Gilmore 2 (21:05). He cited a viral moment with CNN as among his favorite publicity wins.


The Dame Dash Dispute: History, Lawsuit & Loyalty

Cam’ron went in deep on his fractured relationship with Dame Dash. He accused Dame of airing their private disputes publicly after years of loyalty (23:21).
Cam claims Dame then threatened him with a lawsuit — what Cam views as a publicity stunt. Interestingly, he noted that he and Mase previously attempted to help Dame resolve financial issues (29:50).

The showdown between Cam and Dame has long roots, and this interview adds layers to their history, positioning Cam as someone pushing forward with the Paid In Full project despite the drama.


What to Watch For & Implications

  • How “slow motion” production plays out: Cam says the project will be paced carefully. That could mean deep dive episodes around characters like Silk Perry and Alpo’s DC years.

  • How much creative control Cam will hold: As both subject and producer, Cam’s involvement suggests he’ll have a say in narrative direction.

  • Public reception & Dame Dash response: Dame has already voiced skepticism about whether 50 truly holds the rights.

  • Mase & Cam’s collaborative future: Those 19 unreleased tracks could become a treasure trove for fans if they ever see the light of day.

  • Cam’s cross-industry ambitions in supplements, comedy, and media suggest his brand is evolving beyond just music.
