Cam’ron will be supporting his third album, “Come Home With Me” (Roc-A-Fella/Def Jam), which debuted at No. 2 on The Billboard 200 in June. The single “Hey Ma” featuring Juelz Santana, Freekey Zekey & Toya, is No. 8 on Billboard’s Hot 100 this week. N.O.R.E.’s latest album, “God’s Favorite” (Def Jam), debuted at No. 3 on The Billboard 200 in July. The single “Nothin'” sits at No. 16 on the Hot 100 this week.
