50 Cent mania is starting. As the New York rapper gears up for the release of his upcoming Before I Self-Destruct album, he's starting to leak new music.
On Tuesday (October 8), Fiddy leaked the first track off the album, via ThisIs50.com. Immediately, New York radio picked up the track, titled "Get Up," and began putting it into immediate rotation.
While everyone enjoys the first banger, 50 is hard at work, finishing Self-Destruct. He told Blender magazine last week that he's been in Detroit working with Eminem, and said they had to finish one song titled "Norman Bates Hotel."
Additionally, 50 revealed that beats by Dr. Dre will more than likely appear on the upcoming album. He said that the superproducer has sent him "a bunch of beats" and he's currently going through them.
"Dre sent over a bunch of beats, and we're just going through them all, picking out who wants what," 50 told the mag. "We already finished one joint and just started vocals on another. It's gonna blow you away, I guarantee."
Before I Self-Destruct is slated to drop December 9.
