Cam'ron achieved notoriety for his 2001 release from Sony Records under Tommy Mottola. Reportedly using unconventional methods such as physically assaulting and threatening numerous Sony Records employees, Cam'ron sought an end to his contract due to his record company's lack of promotion for his second album released in 2000 entitled S.D.E for Sports, Drugs, and Entertainment. It featured songs such as "Let Me Know" and "What Means the World to You" which featured an all-star line-up of Southern rappers such as U.G.K, Trina, and Ludacris in addition to Cam'ron protege Juelz Santana.
Cam'ron is also credited with starting the recent trend of men wearing pink. He claims that it was already popular in urban New York. This trend had become widespread across America. In early 2004 Cam'ron announced plans to work with scientist to develop his own, new color and patent it. This eventually evolved into a purplish color that he used to design a hat in conjunction with the baseball cap company New Era. The hat was immensely popular and sold-out in record time.
In mid-2004 Cam'ron became involved once again in a dispute with his former friend Mase. After returning to the music industry after a 5-year religious hiatus, Mase conducted an interview on the New York radio station Hot 97 where he described his falling out with Cam'ron and the current status of their relationship. This fueled a live, heated debate between Cam'ron's current right-hand man Jim Jones and Mase where Jim Jones threatened Mase that he would "put dentures in your mouth" and he advised Mase to "have them boys in blue (police)" with him when he sees him. Subsequently, Mase and Cam'ron got into a verbal debate that ended in Cam'ron hanging up the phone disgusted with his former ally's lies and insincerity. Cam'ron's frequently stalled fourth album, entitled Purple Haze, was released on December 7, 2004. The follow-up from Cam'ron's group, The Diplomats, Diplomatic Immunity 2 was released on November 23rd, 2004.
