50 Cent reveals LP release date
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 18 June 2012
50 Cent has given his much previously discussed fifth studio LP (and first in three years), ‘Five (Murder By Numbers)’, a release date of 3 Jul.
The rapper has apparently backtracked on his one-time beef with his label Interscope Records, instead opting to cooperate with the Universal subsidiary in the interest of fulfilling his obligations as a hip hop recording artiste.
Breaking the release news to US radio station Hot 107.9, Fiddy said: “I’m releasing the record anyway. I said I was gonna put a record out that was completely up to album standard, and I’m gonna do that. I’ve worked on this album for a long period of time, and now it’s comin around”.
An unrepentent Cent added: “For a lot of people, they don’t understand the actual business portion of what they’re watching; they just see entertainment. Labels, at different points, they drop the ball. It’s not visible when the momentum is feverish. For me, with Interscope, all the success I’ve had in music has been with them”.
