Rapper 50 CENT plans to show off his soulful skills on his third album BEFORE I SELF DESTRUCT after falling in love with Motown classics. The IN DA CLUB hitmaker - real name CURTIS JACKSON - is planning to shock fans next spring (07) with his new sound. He says, "I want the music to sound like something I haven't done before so I needed to change the guys I worked with on the last project. "On my last album I stuck with what people have expected from me already but now I feel more comfortable to do something else. I've been listening to a lot of Motown stuff - SMOKEY ROBINSON - a lot of older music, so I got a lot of soulful loops. "I took material from some old, old records and recreated them."
