50 Cent Confirms There Will Be a New G-Unit Album This Year

50-cent50 Cent and his G-Unit camp were rumored to be having problems at the start of this year. But less than a week after they reunited in New York City for Hot 97’s Summer Jam Concert, the G-Unit boss is confirming that there will be a new collaboration album from the crew. “Yes, you will see an album by late November,” 50 Cent said in an interview on “Good Day Philadelphia” this week. According to bet.com:

“Fif, Tony Yayo, Lloyd Banks, Young Buck and possible new Unit inductee Kidd Kidd most recently put the G-Unit touch on Drake’s “0-100” track. While Drizzy remains on the opening, Fif comes in soon after with the Southside flow that captured fans during his ‘Get Rich or Die Tryin’ ‘ days. ‘You got me f—-d up you think it’s different now a n—a rich/’Fore I get to cutting’, all you n—-s better cut the s–t,’ he raps.”

50 Cent is in the midst of promoting his new album “Animal Ambition,” which was released June 3 and was his first since leaving Interscope Records to start his independent label.

50 Cent projected first week sales should land him on the Billboard charts, but the projected first week sales are a mere 30,000, which is a far cry from the numbers that 50 is accustomed to doing.

 

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
