50 cent
Album : Before I Self Destruct
Released date : November 17, 2009
Label : G-Unit Records

Review :

Initially, Before I Self Destruct was planned to be 50 Cent’s 2007 album, however, he decided to release Curtis instead, and thus Before I Self Destruct’s release date was pushed back to 2008.

Although the album’s release date was announced to be February 4, 2008, it is currently planned to be released during JUNE 2009, due to the release date of Curtis being pushed back to September 2007

Some people think I changed the title of my album from "Before I Self Destruct" to "Curtis", but what I did was, I changed albums. I had Before I Self Destruct, I recorded twelve songs under that actual topic, and then I created the material that is under Curtis, and I felt like this album should come out right now and Before I Self Destruct is gonna be my follow-up record, so I’m probably like three or four records away from completing my next album at this point. And I signed a five-album deal with Interscope, so this Curtis is my third album, Before I Self Destruct is scheduled to release February 4th, which will be the anniversary of Get Rich or Die Tryin’ and my final studio recording album because the fifth album in my recording contract is a greatest hits album, so technically, I’m about three songs away from completing my music career.
