50 Cent Claims Album Is Nearly Perfect

Postby IceAxe » Jun 25th, '09, 19:42

50 Cent may not be best known for having a humble attitude. Recently, he added to his reputation as a confident emcee by telling MTV that his forthcoming album Before I Self Destruct was nearly flawless.

"I feel like my album is as close to perfect as it's gonna get," he told MTV. "I'm reaching the point to where if I have to continue to write it, I'll be overkilling it."

While he has previously worked with Timbaland, he added that it's definitely interesting to collab with him. In explaining Timbo's methods, he said Tim would sometimes go in the booth and mumble a melody to which 50 had to rhyme to. This presented an interesting change for his writing process.

"I could put lyrics to any melody. I can write a Rap song, I can write an R&B song, I can write whatever type of song. If you put a note on it where I can hear it, man, I can write that. We did that, and that's how I came up with that new cadence for 'Ayo Technology.' We did that a couple of times while we was on there working [on Before I Self Destruct]. It's fun that way to have him participate with me...Even if you ain't got the words. You're up there, 'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.' Tim will be like, 'I can't believe that. He was able to make everything I just made a noise into a real cadence.' I seen him take pens or pencils into a cup and put it into a shaker. I'm sure nobody else has shaker sounds like that. ... I seen some interesting things from Timbaland."

Aside from Tim's "interesting" production techniques, 50 also worked with Polow Da Don.

Expect new mixtapes "Sincerely Southside 2" and a G-Unit tape with Tony Yayo and Lloyd Banks.

I liked his last album but it was nowhere near as good as Get Rich or Die Tryin. That album was full of classics, 50 just hasnt gotten back to that level since. There are some pretty good tracks on Curtis but by the sounds of it, his next album might be his best ever. All the interviews ive heard or read about say its his best stuff and that hes just tearin it up.

If 50 says its close to perfection, id like to hear what he thinks are the imperfections in his previous albums, see if his opinion matches the general consensus of the fans. There is one problem, if he is saying its near perfection or some of his best stuff, hes building up some lofty expectations. If the Album flops, it could be disaster, I personally hope it lives up to those lofty expectations because if the album does, Rap fans will have lots to enjoy.

So you think Curtis sucks? Well it does in comparison to GRODT but ain't even that bad you dumb shit. Most of its tracks are reasonable. If you're talking about BISD maybe being his best album ever, I don't think so either, it's probably going to be like another Curtis but just wait and see before you start calling people dumb.

no i liked Curtis, I think its his second best album next to GRODT, better than SVDM. Just hearing some interviews online with 50 and hearing other industry opinions about the work hes doing is really building up BISD. I personally dont think it will be better than GRODT but its being hyped up to be atleast the same calibre.

im just saying there are big expectations for the next album and if they are met, its good for all rap fans.

hey, what is this War Angel LP, is it a mixtape, i downloaded it and wasnt toooo impressed, a few decent tracks but nothing grabbed me...
