50 Cent
50 Cent says he's dropping a project called War Angel next Tuesday on ThisIs50.com. According to 50, the War Angel LP is more a street album than a mixtape.
“When you hear it, out of all the material I put on the street, you’re gonna say that’s the best body of work I put out in the mixtape circuit, period," he told MTV. "The way the mood of music is right now, when they hear what this is, they’ll say, ‘That’s what we needed.’"
50 Cent also announced more projects coming.
“I have two other tapes to follow it,” he revealed. “Fourth of July, Sincerely Southside Part 2 coming out with mostly ’90s music on it. Timeless music, classic hit records. Then, after that, there’s a G-Unit mixtape. It’s actually untitled. I’ll be finished with it in the next day or so.”
Here's 50 Cent talking about the project - Watch out for the TRIPPER intro.. lol
Alright, we normally wouldn't put this sorta stuff on our esteemed blog, but this shit is funny as hell. 50 done took the whole Rick Ross beef to another level. I ain't even gonna speak on it, just watch the video.
Disclaimer: This video has a strong R/X rating, so view with discretion. It's awesome.
Rick Ross going at G Unit, hard. Man, this stuff is crazy...insane, I tell ya. You be the judge of who is winning the battle.
Here's a little something to get your weekend going. Two mixtapes of material from Filipino-American super producer Illmind, mixed by DJ DUB MD. If you haven't heard of Illmind, don't worry, these two mixtapes will get you up to speed. They are made up of joints he has produced over the last couple of years for emcees ranging from Skyzoo and Torae to LL Cool J and 50 Cent. Back covers are also included below so you know what's in store, but really there's something for everyone on here, so get to downloading!
Illmind - Blaps, Rhymes & Life Vol. 1
2009 has been off to a great start so far. All this beef has to end, there is so much right now you could stock McDonald's for five years. Everybody around the world has been suffering from the bad economic times and even folks in the music industry have been hit hard by the scams and scandals.
DMX has been sentenced to 90 Days in an Arizona jail. He received the sentence as a result of his long list of convictions that include theft, drug possession and cruelty to animals.
50 Cent has released a Rick Ross diss track after Rick dissed him on a track untitled "Mafia Music". I will keep you all tuned into any updates on this situation.
Violator's own Chris Lighty was a victim in Bernie Madoff's $50 billion Ponzi scheme. Up to now, there have even been rumors that said that 50 Cent, one of his clients had lost millions to Madoff. Nothing has been confirmed so I will leave that as a rumour. Lighty would not elaborate on any details of his dealing with Madoff.
Upcoming rapper Charles Hamilton has been going at a lot of rappers as of late. He went at label mate Soulja Boy, Serius Jones, and more recently Rhymefest. Rhymefest struck back hard with the track 'SuperSonic' and well, you all need to do is listen to it. Why he is attacking all these rappers, nobody knows.
Well, 'til next week...take care and I got more news next week.
Peace,
Grain.
50 Cent is coming back, I have heard a few cuts off the new album and man he is rappin' with the same energy he had on the first cd. This track is crazy he lets some folks know what really is on his mind....look out for more ish after the jump.
Aight, two of the most anticipated albums this year (as noted yesterday by Notion) are those by Eminem and 50 Cent. So, thanks to the good folks in blog world, we have links to a new track from each album, so y'all can decide for yourself whether it's finna be hot or a pile of shit.
Eminem feat. Dr. Dre and 50 Cent - Crack A Bottle
50 Cent - I Get It In (produced by Dr. Dre)
Personally, I think both tracks are pretty decent. The Em track grew on me after a number of listens...the 50 one is just straight up, classic 50. I've read that folks felt he is as hungry as he was in his debut here, but I dunno about that...hit a comment with your thoughts, folks...
