2007 is 50 Cent’s year, according to Curtis Jackson. With rumors flying about G-Unit’s demise, and many critics/fans blasting the latest efforts from his camp, 50 is ready to speak on everything, including rumors and his next LP, Before I Self Destruct.
“I
heard them talking on the radio about G-Unit is over, because they
seeing some of the artists having difficulties…What you’re seeing is
the music business. Nothing just works in the music business. There’s
no company that has had a higher success rate than G-Unit since I showed up. I’ve accomplished what took people 10 years to do in business, in three,” he told MTV.
Timbaland will join the list of producers on the project and 50 admitted that this added pressure to produce.
“To
be honest with you, I feel [another kind of] pressure when I go in a
studio with a producer… ‘Cause I don’t wanna waste time. I don’t live
in Florida, so I have to go to Florida to work with Timbaland. I feel
like I’m paying airfare for my entourage, I’m paying hotel fare for my
entourage, I’m paying studio time. I’m in there with Timbaland like, ‘I
need to make a f—ing hit.’ I feel obligated under those
circumstances,” he added.

I’m gonna dominate again. It might seem unfair, but I’m gonna do what I
came to do.”
