Off the soundtrack for Get Rich Or Die Tryin' (not to be confused with the major label debut of the same name), 50 delivers another report on the spoils of success and the negative attention it raises from his peers
Though 50 sings the entire track apart from the intro, the lyrical and instrumental...
[Intro]
Ohh!
The top feel so much better than the bottom
So much better
[Chorus],
Nigga, you's a window shopper
Mad at me, I think I know why
Nigga, you's a window shopper
In the jewelry store lookin' at shit you can't buy
Nigga, you's a window shopper
In the dealership tryna get a test drive
Nigga, you's a window shopper
Mad as fuck when you see me ride by
[Verse 1]
Summertime, white Porsche Carrera is milky
I'm on the grind, let my paper stack but I'm filthy
It's funny how niggas get to screw-facin' at me
Anyhow they ain't got the heart to get at me
I'll get down, Southside's the hood that I come from
So I don't cruise through nobody hood without my gun
They know the kid ain't goin' for all that bullshit
Try and stick me, I'ma let off a full clip
It ain't my fault you don' fucked up your re-up
At the dice game, who told you put a G up?
Everybody mad when they paper don't stack right
But when I come around y'all niggas better act right
When we got the tops, down, you can hear the systems thump
Nigga, when we rollin', rollin', rollin'
Shut your block, down, quick to put a hole in a chump
Nigga, when we rollin', rollin', rollin'
[Chorus]
Nigga, you's a window shopper
Mad at me, I think I know why
Nigga, you's a window shopper
In the jewelry store lookin' at shit you can't buy
Nigga, you's a window shopper
In the dealership tryna get a test drive
Nigga, you's a window shopper
Mad as fuck when you see me ride by
[Verse 2]
Niggas love me in L.A. as soon as I pop in
They come to scoop me up at LAX and I hop in
Now when it comes to bad bitches you know I got them
Some from Long Beach, some from Watts, some from Compton
You know a nigga wanna see how Cali girls freak off
After that five hour flight from New York
I start spittin' G at a bitch like a pimp, mane
Tell her, "Meet me at the Mondrian so we can do our thang."
She can bring the lingerie wit her, I sup-pose
Then we can go from fully dressed to just havin' no clothes
Then she can run and tell her best friend 'bout my sex game
Then her best friend could potentially be next, mane
Listen mane, shit, changed, I came up, I'm doin' my thang
Homie, I'm holdin', holdin', holdin'
Oh shit, mane, the store owner watchin' you
'Fore somethin' get stolen, stolen, stolen
[Chorus]
Nigga, you's a window shopper
Mad at me, I think I know why
Nigga, you's a window shopper
In the jewelry store lookin' at shit you can't buy
Nigga, you's a window shopper
In the dealership tryna get a test drive
Nigga, you's a window shopper
Mad as fuck when you see me ride by
Window Shopper was written by 50 Cent & Sire (Producer) & C. Styles & Bob Marley.
Window Shopper was produced by Sire (Producer) & C. Styles.
50 Cent released Window Shopper on Sun Nov 06 2005.
“Window Shopper” is inspired by a scene where a young version of my character is looking through a [store] window at shoes, right before he decides to start hustling. I kind of took it and made it relevant to 50 Cent because I know that the general public isn’t going to expect less than the best mat...
Not until 50 released “Piggy Bank” months later which took even more jabs at the rappers. Jada' responded with “I’m Sorry Ms. Jackson” and Fat Joe retaliated in “My FoFo” while the others kept quiet for a bit.
Yes. “Window Shopper” was certified gold by the RIAA on June 14, 2006.
