Cam’ron just confessed his lack of civic engagement as it pertains to presidential elections while Ma$e and Mike Tyson colluded over their allegiance to presidential candidate Donald Trump.
During a recent episode of the former rap star’s It Is What It Is sports talk show, Cam’ron and Ma$e sat down with former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson and spoke about a number of various topics. Things started to get a but dicey when they began discussing the 2024 presidential election and Ma$e and Tyson voiced their support for Donald Trump. Tyson, known for his boldness both in and out of the ring, openly expressed his hope for Trump’s victory in the upcoming election.
“Trump’s going to win,” Mike Tyson said. Cam’ron replied, “Is that who you want to win?”
Tyson stated confidently responded without hesitating, “Yeah, that would be nice if he win.”
He went on to explain his reasoning, pointing out that while he doesn’t agree with everything Trump stands for, he respects him as a person.
“Nahm he’s just a good man, listen, I don’t agree with all this s###,” he said. “Nobody agrees with all my s###, but they’re good people. No one’s perfect in this world.”
Ma$e also made it clear that he leans toward Trump in the upcoming election when Cam’ron asked him directly about his political stance.
The former Bad Boy Records rapper responded, “You know I’m conservative, so I’m probably on this side of Trump.”
The admission aligns with Ma$e’s long-known shift toward conservative values since he announced his retirement from music to become a pastor twice — once in 1999 and again in 2007. On the other hand, Tyson’s decades-long relationship with Trump, dating back to his days of fighting in Trump-owned hotels, further solidified his endorsement.
“I used to fight in his hotel when I was a kid,” he recalled. “I got love for him.”
Mase added, “Wasn’t you at the Trump party back in the days?”
To which Tyson responded, “All the time — I’m the reason it was the party. It was my party.”
While Cam’ron himself admitted that he has never voted, it was clear that the conversation surrounding Trump sparked lively discussion. “You know what it is about Trump,” Mase commented. “If you know somebody and then they get to the place where they’re running for president, you almost feel like a hater if you don’t vote for them because you know this n##a.” Tyson echoed a similar sentiment, highlighting the personal connections and loyalty that drive his support.
The conversation adds both Tyson and Ma$e to the growing list of public figures from the Hip-Hop and sports worlds who have voiced support for Donald Trump. In recent years, notable names like Kanye West and Lil Wayne have shown favor toward Trump, with Lil Wayne even meeting the former president before the 2020 election to discuss criminal justice reform.
Kodak Black and Fivio Foreign also pledged their support for Trump earlier this year after they releases a collaboration featuring the former president.
Additionally, professional athletes like NFL legend Herschel Walker and NBA player Kyrie Irving have also expressed conservative viewpoints or support for Trump’s policies. The trend of celebrities backing Trump has highlighted an ongoing division in both Hip-Hop and sports over political allegiances as the 2024 election approaches.
