As we previously reported, 50 Cent is getting ready to release "War Angel," his new mixtape. So where did 50 get the title from? 50's is fed up with the watered-down hip hop he says we have right now. "What I fell in love with initially ain’t even in the muthafuckin’ art form anymore. It’s cool because there’s an opportunity for me to become [that] to a whole new generation … because of their age group, they’re not aware of it." [watch here]
50 has a plan. "Now I gotta shift the energy," 50 says. [watch here] "I gotta make them follow me. After they follow me, they’ll be able to make real hip-hop records and make them successful. I have to have a successful project with really good hip-hop music to make these people go, ‘OK, we can make [a real hip-hop album].’ I have to be successful to make the record companies go, ‘We can support this guy that wrote a rap album’ instead of feeling like ‘We need him to go on this record with Ne-Yo or Dream. Get somebody on there to do the hook.’ That’s the concept of what they feel they can present to the public and that’s not what the fuck I was going on when I started." [watch here]
50 explained "When I start writing music to my core, I’m talking about the way I came up, the way I was raised. That’s easy to me. Tell me to make a commercial pop record, a commercial hit record and that’s more difficult to me than to create concepts that people are excited about where I’m from." [watch here]
