"Hey Ma" is a song by American rapper Cam'ron, released through Cam'ron's Diplomat Records, Jay-Z's Roc-A-Fella Records and Def Jam Recordings as the second single from his third album Come Home with Me. The song features Juelz Santana, Freekey Zekey, and Toya, and was produced by DR Period and Mafia Boy, who used a sample of the Commodores' 1977 hit "Easy".

Released as the follow-up to Cam'ron's successful single "Oh Boy", "Hey Ma" followed that song's success, peaking at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100, his highest peak on that chart, while also reaching the top 10 on several other Billboard charts.

The remix also features Juelz Santana and Toya. This remix, produced by DR Period and Mafia Boy, was included on the Diplomats' first album, Diplomatic Immunity.

[edit]

The song was featured in the 2012 film End of Watch.[1] The song can also be heard in "Lord of the Bling", an episode of the UPN/CW television series Veronica Mars.[2]

Music video

[edit]

The music video for the song was filmed at the Love Nightclub in Washington, D.C. in July 2002, and depicts the members of the Diplomats inside the club except for Juelz Santana, who is refused entry as the bouncer (played by then Love part-owner Taz Wube) reads his ID and sees that he is 18, but has to be 21 to enter. Juelz then sees the rest of The Diplomats about to enter the club and through his connection to the group, Juelz is let in. Before Cam'ron's verse, Diplomats affiliate Frankie Krutches appears and dances while Cam'ron's Live My Life (Leave Me Alone) appears in the background. The video features cameo appearances from, Jim Jones, Kareem "Biggs" Burke, and Damon Dash, as well as fellow Roc-A-Fella Records artists Beanie Sigel, Omillio Sparks, Young Gunz, Oschino Vasquez, and Freeway.[3]
