50 Cent’s ‘Candy Shop’ Welcomed Into YouTube Billion-Views Club

50 Cent has landed his second video in the YouTube billion-views club. The rapper’s 2005 hit “Candy Shop” now joins his signature breakthrough 2003 hit “In Da Club” in the 10-digit realm. The Scott Storch-produced second single from 50’s sophomore album, The Massacre — which spent nine weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 — features singer Olivia on the hook.

The Jesse Terrero-directed video opens with the MC pulling up to Candy Shop Lane in a red Ferrari, where the gates open to reveal an enormous mansion filled with video vixens. When 50 opens the door, he’s greeted by a series of scantily clad women as he raps the single-entendre hook, “I take you to the candy shop/ I’ll let you lick the lollipop/ Go ‘head girl, don’t you stop/ Keep goin’ until you hit the spot,” over the song’s snaky, dance-y beat.

Elsewhere, an eager-looking 50 hits the sheets and the doctor’s office with women dressed up as domanatrixes, nurses and in lingerie in the clip that features cameos from Lil Scrappy and the G-Unit’s Young Buck and Lloyd Banks. Rocking a grey G-Unit cap, 50 also flexes in a grey fur coat and watches as Olivia and a group of dancers give him a private show while dressed in skin-baring red satin booty shorts and bikini tops, with some later posing like a living painting behind him.

The party ends when Olivia pops a bubblegum bubble in 50’s ear, which zooms out to reveal the singer working at a drive-thru fast food window asking a sleeping Curtis to wake up from his raunchy reverie to realize he’s dozed off in the line at… you guessed it, the Candy Shop.

“Candy Shop” marked 50’s third No. 1 single in two years, following up on “In Da Club” — which also spent nine weeks on the top of the Hot 100 tally — as well as 2003’s “21 Questions,” featuring Nate Dogg.
