Rumors of 50 Cent going back to work on his forthcoming album, Curtis, have been confirmed by none other than Sha Money XL. “His new joints are the real deal. You would think a hundred mill would lead to complacency. Instead, he’s as hungry as ever” Sha told Interscope News.
The rumors began circulating after Interscope execs were reportedly unhappy with the reception of 50’s first official single Straight To The Bank causing the highly anticipated album to be pushed back for a Fall Release and 50 cent to go back in the lab to record three more tracks.
According to Interscope news, the Robin Thicke duet, “Follow My Lead” is expected to be officially released July 1st, with an accompanying video. A new video, “I Get It,” (also known as the Straight to the bank remix) which features Tony Yayo, is expected to be released by June 30th. The video will be distributed to 50 Cent’s YouTube channel, and will not be featured on “Curtis.”
50’s Fourth mainstream release, Before I Self Destruct, has also been pushed back and is now expected to drop in the third quarter of 2008.
Looks promising. I think he needs more club bangers.
I Get Money is the only song I like so far. I bet he took the best songs from Before I Self Destruct and put them on Curtis lol.
