Busta Rhymes is planning for the release of his ninth studio album. While the date hasn’t been set yet, the cover art recently leaked, and the title of the project is Year Of the Dragon. With Lil Wayne coming in 2013 and Tyga confirming a YMCMB album coming, this should be a big couple of months for Cash Money. In other crew news, we learn that Maybach Music Group’s Stalley will finally be dropping an album. Well, it’s not coming soon, but it is coming in 2013. After Savage Journey to the American Dream and MMG’s Self Made Vol. 2, a Stalley album is very necessary.
Elzhi is planning a third solo album called The Weather Man (does Evidence know?). While he tweeted that title then deleted it, that appears to be the title. Ruffhouse Records is back! The house that Chris Schwartz and Joe Nicolo built is back in business and their first artist? Beanie Sigel. Beans is dropping his album This Time on August 14th.
