50 Cent Returning to Hip Hop Roots
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Upcoming Releases, Hip-Hop & Rap,
50 Cent's new album will see him return to hip-hop's roots. The "In Da Club" rapper is currently finishing recording of his fifth album, and while he doesn't think it will be as popular as his debut Get Rich or Die Tryin, or its follow-up The Massacre, he says fans will respect the classic musical direction he is heading in.
"My next album is gonna shake things up a bit. It has the elements that were in hip-hop that I fell in love with in the beginning (sic). I hate to speak on my music 'cause it speaks for itself. I can't sell 12 mill like I did on GRODT Or 10 mill like the massacre, but prepare for impact #SK (sic) If you call yourself a true fan of music you understand. The first album is your introduction to the world," he wrote on Twitter.
He then listed classic hip-hop debuts by New York rappers: Nas' Illmatic, Jay-Z's Reasonable Doubt, and Notorious B.IG's Ready to Die, to compare the record to.

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Artist News, Upcoming Releases, Hip-Hop & Rap,
Tupac Shakur continues to remain a strong, mysterious musical force, and fans continue to feel the void he left behind ... but perhaps, some of their unanswered questions can still be addressed.
Journalist Kevin Powell has recently inked a deal to bring Tupac Shakur: The Authorized Biography to book stores, giving fans an inside look at the events that shaped, and ended, the rapper’s life.
His mother, Afeni Shakur, said the book is being written with her “full blessings.”
Tupac’s death will also be the center of a big-screen biopic from director Antoine Fuqua (Training Day), which will focus on the events of his last day of life.

Diddy says singing on Last Train to Paris was difficult
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, Upcoming Releases, Hip-Hop & Rap, R&B / Soul,
Diddy admitted singing on his new album was “nerve wracking”. The hitmaker - best known as a rapper and businessman - said his move to showcasing his vocal prowess on new album ‘Last Train To Paris’, released by his new group Dirty Money, was particularly daunting. He told NME: “There’s definitely nerves. It’s nerve wracking because there’s more singing for me, and being on tour with bandmates. You have a new concept, and it took people a while to buy into it. But as we’ve started performing they’ve started buying into the concept. And now people have expectations.”
Diddy - who is joined in the group by singers Kaleena Harper and Dawn Richard - added returning to the music industry after a four year break, some people have forgotten how strong a back catalogue he has. He said: “I think a lot of times people forget how many hits I’ve had. I take pride in having hit records that still play in clubs now. I take people on a musical journey, and when we bring that up to date, it just gets more intense.”

Lil Wayne to face copyright infringement lawsuit
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Artist News, The Charts, Hip-Hop & Rap,
Lil Wayne is to be handed a court summons in jail. The rapper - currently incarcerated at New York’s Riker’s Island prison on weapons charges - faces a fresh legal battle after his expected release on November 4, as a producer has launched a copyright infringement lawsuit against him.
Michael ‘Mali Boi’ Bradford is claiming for unpaid royalties he believes he is due for creating the beat to Wayne’s single ‘Mrs. Officer’. He says he came up with the rhythm five years before it was reworked by Deezle, who is credited as the producer of the track. Deezle is also reportedly launching legal action, saying he has not been paid royalties for the 2008 single, from Wayne’s breakthrough ‘Tha Carter III’ album.
