Britney Spears Gets Delayed
Posted in Album Release, Britney Spears on the October 10, 2008
Britney Spears first single off of her much anticipated sixth studio album ‘Circus’ was supposed to hit radio on September 22. However, the single ‘Womanizer’ ended up getting delayed. The reason for the delay seems to be because of a leak. Maybe feedback on the leak wasn’t so good because the label decided that the song needed to go back to the editing room. Well, that was a big disappointment. I hope it doesn’t hurt her too much. Oh well, there’s still some room for her to gain some momentum before her album gets released on December 2nd. Let’s hope she succeeds with her comeback.
Before 50 Cent Self Destructs
Posted in 50 Cent, Album Release on the October 10, 2008
50 Cent recently sat down for an interview with Rolling Stone where he discusses his upcoming album and film which are both entitled ‘Before I Self Destruct’. The film is based on the music from the album. 50 seems to be taking his work very seriously as he explains that he wants the film to be an accurate representation of his life and its causes and effects. He says that while most films about certain lifestyles fail to portray the consequences, he “showed characters under pressure in scenarios where they felt like there were no other options, even though there were… There are always options. People just usually start to see them while being incarcerated - for not seeing them in the first place.” Oddly enough, don’t expect to hear any of the music on the soundtrack though as he wants the film to remain free of Interscope’s ownership.

Janet Jackson is now without a label as she is no longer with Island Def Jam Music Group. She isn’t releasing any info regarding if she was dropped though. The report of the split comes from producer Rodney ‘Darkchild’ Jerkins. He confirmed that Janet is now a free agent. He adds “We didn’t get the support from the record company.” He also said that Janet “felt like it wasn’t pushed. I felt like it wasn’t pushed correctly. She just didn’t get her just-do as an artist of that magnitude.” He also talked about her future saying “I could make an album with her, possibly me, Jimmy Jam, and Terry Lewis. Keep it real simple. They focus on what they’re great at, I focus on what I’m great at. We come together and make a classic Janet record.”
