50 Cent is marketing himself very well I must say.
The Queens rapper will be releasing digitally, what he calls a street album for free, called War Angel tomorrow at 9PM EST at Thisis50.com & it'll consist of ten new tracks from the artist.
But that's not all, 50 is also planning to have a couple of more releases before he drops his record Before I Self Destruct.
Many of you might be saying that War Angel must be a mixtape then. Well contrary to belief, that's very untrue. 50 Cent spoke to MTV News and said, "Creatively, this is not even a mixtape. That's why I put LP next to it. ... My core audience will understand it immediately, and it's written specifically for that."
He added, "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. The way the mood of music is right now, when they hear what this is, they'll say, 'That's what we needed.'"
He went on to say that he has 2 other tapes to follow War Angel. Sincerely Southside Part 2 will be coming out on July 4th and it will have mainly classic hits of the 90's on it. The one after will be a G-Unit mixtape which he says should be done within the next couple of days.
Before I Self Destruct is said to be released in September.
That'll be interesting who comes out on top. I know Jay-Z is releasing Blueprint 3 in September. What's 50 gonna do if he loses in his albums sales to another RocaFella??? You all remember the publicity between him and Kanye West when both their albums dropped the same day. Ehhhhh we'll have to wait and see.
But all you 50 Cent fans that want to hear that raw, rugged music that made you love him before the commercial junk, go download War Angel.
