50 Cent Says “Black Magic” Won’t Be A Techno Album

    50 Cent recently announced plans to record his fifth studio album, which will be titled Black Magic. In a previous interview, he said the music on the upcoming project is inspired by genres he was exposed to while in Europe, and will be “more up-tempo, more Dance.” Fif told radio host Tim Westwood that the LP, however, would not turn into an uncharacteristic techno album. The biggest difference, he explained, will be the structure of the music.

    “It’s still 50 Cent on the record,” Fif told Westwood. “I’m using different song formats. I’ll write a rap song in the sequence of a different kind of record.” When asked exactly what that meant, he said, “R&B records may have eight-bar verses and bridges along with the actual chorus. A traditional Hip Hop record has three sixteen-bar verses. So to write it in a different format instead of writing it the way a traditional rap record is written, it’s to experiment with different things. It’s still Hip Hop music, still 50 cent content. It’s just written in a different way. “

    50 said he’s already recorded three tracks for the album, although he did not reveal much information about production or possible features.

    7. BS…i wouldnt be surprised if he puts some autotune on there. he sees other artists trying some different sounds so he’s biting like he always has. came in the game biting ja and then dissed him and a bunch a sheep followed and still following, now he bout to bite the current trends…might as well beef up his movie career…

    8. I guess since the last album didn’t sell as well, it’s time to appeal to the girls with club jams?

      Whatever works for ya.

      1. More Like He ruined Games Career………..Game hasnt been shit since 50 kicked him out da unit……….Men lie Woman lie but numbers dont

      2. Hey Real Boss Hogg, you’re shittin me, right? Sure, The Documentary was a fantastic album and went 2 times platinum, but it’s not like his career stopped their. He left the Unit and made Doctor’s Advocate in which went on to reach platinum status. Next, he made LAX in which has almost reached platinum status (it might already have). He’s comin out with the RED Album which is gonna be sick! Game’s career is still going and you’re just a fuckin dumb ass for not thinking so.

        50 didn’t fuck up Game’s career and Game didn’t fuck up 50’s career. They both went on with their careers and have still found their successes. I like Game’s shit a lot more than 50’s. Ever since fif made Get Rich, it seems like he’s been chasing it. Get Rich was fuckin amazing, but he no longer has anything original to say. His lyrics are the same every fuckin song. Kill that nigga, shoot that nigga, that’s all fif says. He’s becoming unoriginal. BISD wasn’t that great and a lot of you are blinded by that. BISD was trying to beat Get Rich, but it failed in doing so. Sure, it was the old fif we all came to love, but I would much rather listen to Get RIch over BISD. Massacre and Curtis were wack and if fif ever raps about shit other than shooting and fuckin bitches, let me know. Then maybe I’ll start listenin to the new shit he puts out. Until then, it’s Get Rich, because his new stuff sounds almost the exact same, just not as good. Listen to Get Rich then BISD and tell me he doesn’t recycle his lyrics. He’ll say he’s wearing teflon don on every fuckin song. Come on fif, quit recycling your damn lyrics, and say somethin new!

      3. FAGS

        50 better no no game better no 50 better

        yall sound like nerds arguin over star trek shit

        FUCK YOU

      4. G-Unit!!
        Tha GAME iz ova since tha ELEPHANT GOT PUT IN THA SAND. maybe he should run and tell OFFICER RICKY. 50 gettin’ cake and can’t trust nobody. You know THE GAME these YOUNG BUCK’z wil turn on you. GAME OVER!

    9. BISD WILL GO PLAT NEXTLY,Y’ALL MINDLESS HATERS WILL BE DAMN FUCKING ASHAMED ,Y’ALL WANT FIF TO COLLAPSE YOU GUYS DREAMS WON’T COME TRUE BECAUSE YOU SAID IT WON’T GO GOLD BUT SINCE THE BEGINNING OF FEBRUARY IT CROSSED GOLD MARK NOW IT’S HEADING THROUGH PLATINUM,WHAT ELSE DO YOU HAVE TO SAY? YOU CAN HATE BUT NUMBERS CAN’T LIE,WHOLE BUNCH OF BAD ASS BASTARDS.

      1. word, lol why does everyone wanna see someone fail? I mean i cant stand the game but i dont go to every blog spot wishin death on the nigga, i mean why cant people just be happy that a black man has been successful and has more money then most of these conservative nazi middle aged racist white fucks? lol give fif his props and stop hatin..shit is shameful

    10. We got our first Black President, They want him to fail

      They say if you ain’t Conservative, You going to Hell,

      But my God don’t play no Politics

      If he had to vote I bet it’d be Obama b*tch!

    11. Listen to “Hard Rock”…his whole album is gonna sound like that bullsh*t!!! I’m a 50 fan, but this dude wants to go str8 Commercial and get raped by the industry. it’s a damn shame, I thought BISD was a really cool album.

    12. y’all know not 2 make comments bad speakin’ 2 Bags O’Chips, y’all got his Queerleaders catchin’ feelings.
      LOL

    13. whats wrong with another techno rap song if its like im in da club or disco inferno im all for it. Just not a whole album like it tho

    14. yeah and lil Wayne said rebirth wasn’t going to be a rock album i remember 50 back in the day with that song he did with bun b “as the world turns” other good songs “hustle” “get that money” now that’s some good shit right there

    15. Who gives a shit. This dudes been wack and doesnt make real music anyhow. Is it really newsworthy that he makes music for suburban soccer moms?

    16. G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-G-UNIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    17. WILL. IT. FUCK.

      Who cares anwyay these days about anyone other than the legends, Fash, Brother Ali, J.Cole, Wale, Pill. Jay Rock etc?

      Fuck the simple rhyme sayers, up the rhymesayers.

    18. I’m not a big fan of 50 but his career is still going good. Not every album a rapper makes is going to be a classic for example: Jay-Z’s Kingdom Come. It’s hard to go platinum these days it seems like the only way to do it is go pop on your main singles like when Lil Wayne did Lollipop and Got Money for C3

    19. Same guy who clowned Kanye for making up beat tempo music. Is now doing it cause he knows hip hop is now HIP-POP. I have not bought a rap album in about 5 years now & its for a reason. WATERED DOWN CRAP. Its either a pop album or just some retard that only uses catch phrases(Yeah, Burr, Young Mula, OK!, Ect…)

      1. I agree with this guy,
        Pop album = Blueprint 3
        I bought BISD and I bought Blackout 2
        But thats bout it, ohh yeah and L.A.X
        But this guy is right,
        Rap will never be the same as before

    21. Plies i say give em a double disc, Me against the world and the chronic, less ladies songs. Nothing but gangsta music

    22. Is “have a baby” the only video for that album because I only could that on youtube to be the latest for that album.

    23. Niggas talk about me all the time behind my back
      They don’t talk about me in my face because i’m strapped
      When they talk about me, they say I be tripping What they say about doesn’t make me mad I think they hating ’cause they see me when i’m rolling Man, I can’t help it that they really doing bad

      Ok ok ok Ok ok ok *screwed*
      Ok ok ok Ok ok ok *screwed*

    24. LOL @ faggots that say game > 50 cent in 2010. game cant write a hit record to save his life, his verses are meaningless, 16 bars of name dropping and nothing. game has no quotables, hes all flow and delivery. he hasnt had a classic/hit record since he left g-unit in 05. just a bunch of name dropping and product placement. 50 was mashin the verses on before i self destruct. fag niggas point out sale histroy. if youre not working for a label, or an artist, commenting on album sales is irrelevant. do you fags judge movies by the box office numbers? i bet this album will be hot. with a more humanized 50 cent, experimenting with different kinds of production, and strong concept driven songs. baltimore love thing, i dont need em, god gave me style, i think 50 is going to go forward with that kinda shit. the fickle nature of the average hip hop fan is disgusting. the lames that troll 50 cent news to diss him, are the same weenies who bought multiple copies of GRODT when it came out. bandwagon ride the wave ass lames. b4isd was hot when it leaked, first week sales got back and the same ppl saying how hot it was are calling it wack. these niggas switch styles like a faggot.

      1. Shut the fuck up know it all!!!… U Rep 50 u rep good music!! now now Nigga no need to write a Biography of the Nigga, WIKI for that…..

        The Game is no more relevant, da nigga is a ghost even in his own camp,check 50 he still shines bright like yah granny old LamP!!so haters who now is da ChamP!!!

      2. 50/Game is the wackest beef in the history of hip hop. It didn’t matter when they were the best-selling rappers in the genre, and it SURE AS FUCK doesn’t mean shit now.

    25. SOUNDS LIKE AN EXUCSE TO WRITE LESS. YOU KNOW FIF IS FALLING OFF PEOPLE. I wish he could drop another GRODT or Power of the Dollar…

      1. Dumb nigga, he’s like eight years older and thousands of experiences removed from that time… he couldn’t repeat those albums even if he tried…

    26. Wowwwwwwwwwww!!!Recently, I came across a hot military dating site.

    28. this nigga so wack, he bout to make a dance album? i thought he was already doing that. Techno 50 should be his new name. I can see the cover now him with a silk shirt. and some skinny jeans and penny loafers. He need to just sit back and sell them vitamin waters you don’t have longevity like say uhmmm…..Jay-Z. Your shit been wack since after you first album. This new album probably gon have remixes of all his gayest hits like candy shop, and ayo technology or some shit. This the same nigga who took Ja Rule out for singing, then he started singing, now he was to dance. You bit off more you can chew with Rick Ross and Jay killed you with a thank you speech at the grammy’s. Just cut it out.

      I don’t even know why you still relevent. Rap is not pop if you call it that then stop

      – Q-Tip

      1. *sniffs* i smell haterz!! Black Magic gon’ be crack and you know it 50 murdaz every obstacle in hiz path and even YOU seen it befo’! Examplez:Ja Rule, Fat Joe, Rick Ross, Game, Camron and thazz jus’ to name a few! G-UNIT iz in tha house and we aint leavin’!!!

      3. Jason, hop off my nutz. Bitchez occupy thiz space, so there’z no room for u.

        G-Unit In Tha ESTABLISHMENT!!!!

    29. LMAO @ bitch niggaz still dickridin fake ass Curtis to this day, he’s a fake he stole his rap name from Kelvin Martin who was a REAL gangsta and thug, not this watered down wanksta created purely to make a buck. This nigga done took Ja Rule’s style, now he’s about to go Lady Gaga and do the dance techno shit, I bet he’s gonna do some of that wack ass Bad Romance techno shit, but these 50 stans will still call it hot… Curtis is just as wack as Lil Gayne, Soulja Bitch, T Pain, and all these faggot ass excuses for rappers, REAL rappers are 2Pac, Biggie, Eminem, Ice-T, Nas, Ludacris, Bone-Thugs-N-Harmony, Chamillionaire, Ice Cube, The Game, Tech N9ne, T.I., who do rap not just to put out corny bubblegum teeniebopping rap just to get played on the radio and have females shake their shit to the music. I’m so glad I gave up on this fake nigga Curtis Jackson after GRODT, The Massacre was wack shit, so was CURTIS and didn’t even waste my time checking out BISD.REAL niggaz ain’t gon waste their time on this bitch nigga Curtis Jackson.

      1. agrree wit everythin ya sed
        dont listen to bisd it was a waste of my £10 wich i want back cos that was wack as fuk
        also i aint herd nuthin hot from chamillionare since dat ridin dirty track a few years back
        GRODT is on par wit the MMLP in my opinoin but the massacrre…how could em and dre let him put that out candy shop fuk that get back to rap curtis

    30. .

      my assignment since he said retirement
      hiding behind 8 Mile and The Chronic
      Gets rich but dies rhyming

      .

    31. People feed way too much into image. I’m grown, if the music is hot I’ll listen. I miss the ol 50. The cocky but still humble 50 that had a great hear for beats and was catchy and delivered a nice flow ya feel me. Now it seems he is not all there musicaly. He just doesn’t make great music like he used to. But America loves a comeback story! All he has to do is drop his pride and work with his ol enemies, get some new production and a couple ghost writers and that 03 swag on & he would be on top again. I mean that’s what I would tell him if I was his manager. Since I’m not his career is Dying!

    32. its sad to see his career die just becuz hes washed up. he another ll cool j. its different to see a niggaz career die cuz he kept it real (kanye west). but to see ur career die cuz u just aint shit no more is sad and embarrassing.

    33. its really funny to c niggaz rep g-unit! i didnt kno niggaz did that. really i mean wen has g-unit made any noise since 2002! i havent heard no tony yayo gay banks is missin. 50cent aint hot no more. and u really cant name another nigga on g-unit cause there isnt anyone. buts theres always a time to shine cuz rocafella had there time g-unit had there time and now its young money. lets c how long they last b4 another bad break up happens.

    34. first thing first the mainstream rap game sucks shyt now anyway and alot of these so called hot rappers are only dubb hot because the raido heads say so.its long over do for some fake rappers 2 go away. record sales do not mean that u are good only that u got alot of a play on the raido. the same cats that are haten on fif right know are the ones who where ridin his dick back in the day so chill out

    35. yo every1 seems to agree 50 fell off after GRODT that must mean some1 has actualy told him that he sux now
      so why does he contiune and then make a fukin dance album
      he shud go listen to his own old stuff power of the doller, get rich

    36. okay, i am so not a 50 fan, even though i have a favorite 50 cent song(Baltimore Love Thing), but this is a very smart move for him. He Knows what he is doing. Besides Em, 50 is the biggest touring artist in the world, so if he makes the music the world listens to, he is going to sell big. He bites his tonge alot, but this one is a good move. He Cant go too pop in the hoods of U.S. of A., but he can around the world. And will someone tell him to stop saying “actual” so much, it doesnt make u sound smart, lol!!!
