Background

"Amusement Park" was rumored to have been sold to Jim Jones as "Your Majesty" on a DJ Drama mixtape, which has been denied by Dangerous LLC who claims it was probably leaked. Later the verse of Jim Jones in the song was combined with 50 Cent's verses to make it the remix of "Amusement Park."[1]

Music video and performances

The music video premiered on Access Granted on May 16, 2007.[2] 50 Cent performed the song at the 2007 BET Awards alongside Tony Yayo.[3]

Remixes

A remix was made featuring Jim Jones of Dipset. Because the song was originally Jim Jones' song on a DJ Drama mixtape, his verse was combined with 50 Cent's to make this remix.
