50 Cent’s 2005 hit ‘Candy Shop’ is – apparently shockingly to some – nothing about candy

Next time 50 Cent’s hit song comes on the radio and you find yourself humming along, you might want to listen a little closer.Released in 2005, “Candy Shop” by 50 Cent has had people grooving to its beat for years.

But the next time it plays, take a moment to really understand the lyrics.Many songs, particularly in rap music, often carry meanings that aren’t immediately apparent, and “Candy Shop” is no exception.

Despite its seemingly innocent title, the song might not be talking about a literal store filled with chocolates and sweets.

TikTok user Debi, known as @dibdabx on the platform, has become well-known for her reactions to the hidden meanings behind cryptic songs.This past week, she turned her attention to “Candy Shop” and could barely contain her surprise when she realized the song might actually be about receiving… well, in polite terms, fellatio.

“Is there a more sophisticated way of writing that? Asking for a friend…”In her viral video, captioned “Listening to ‘Candy Shop’ by 50 Cent now I’m not a child,” Debi’s reaction is priceless as she deciphers the chorus:

“I’ll take you to the candy shop. I’ll let you lick the lollipop. Go ahead, girl, don’t you stop. Keep going until you hit the spot.”It seems so clear now, doesn’t it? How did we miss this?

“Why have I never noticed this?!” Debi exclaims in the video.”Calm down, sir. They’re both going for it,” she comments as she listens to the female artist’s lines, ending with, “Childhood ruined.”

Speaking of ruined childhoods, a recently resurfaced episode from the 1940 cartoon “Tom and Jerry” has shocked viewers with its dark undertones.

The viral clip has been trending on social media for the past few weeks.

It shows three drowned kittens being taken to heaven, and it’s heart-wrenchingly sad.

The popular Twitter account @historyinmemes posted the poignant clip, which captures a scene where pussycat Tom visits the gates of heaven after an injury caused by a playful fight with mouse Jerry.

As the scene unfolds, a lineup of cats is seen entering the gates and boarding the ‘Heavenly Express’ train, presumably after meeting their earthly ends.

The train conductor, also a cat, checks a moving sack tied at the top with a string.

Then, three adorable kittens emerge, dripping water, suggesting they had been purposefully drowned.

The video caption provided a somber explanation:

“We were too young to understand this. The golden escalator of Heaven takes Tom’s soul up into the sky to the golden gates of the railroad station where the ‘Heavenly Express’ train is waiting that carries the souls of cats to heaven.”

Reacting to the scene, one viewer shared: “As a child, I never understood this scene with the bag. Seeing it now again as a man, it just gut-checked me. Fuq, I need to hug my dog and cats for a bit.”

Another viewer echoed the sentiment, admitting, “I also hugged my cat after watching this.”
