In response to the early leak of his fourth studio album, 50 Cent has decided to push his album Before I Self Destruct up with the album hitting stores a week before its intended release.

50 Cent’s album sprung a leak last week allowing fans to get a first listen of the rappers LP a month before its release date. 50’s Before I Self Destruct has been on everyone’s mind as the album was scheduled to be released in early 2008.

Rumors suggested that the reason behind the numerous push backs the album received was due to 50’s label, Interscope Records, not being too pleased with the material that appeared on the album.

According to a statement released today, the new release date for the physical form of Before I Self Destruct is set for Monday, November 16. The digital form of the album will be made available on November 9.

To help in riling up a little more interest, 50 Cent has decided to load the album with bonuses and extras – goodies that the leaked version of the album failed to have.

Naturally, 50 Cent is not pleased with the unannounced leak of his album. Though fans may find the album leak to be Christmas in autumn, 50 Cent believes that it is actions like this that hurts music artists.

You expect your album to leak at some point,” said 50 Cent. “But this happened almost a month before we were going to let it out. And it’s not just a track here and there that might hype the album. What’s going on is ridiculous and it’s hurting every music artist. So, for my fans, I’m doing everything possible to get them the real album, with as many bonuses and extras as I can, ASAP.

The physical CD package will also include the Before I Self Destruct film as well as “Two Turntables And A Microphone: The Life And Death Of Jam Master Jay” documentary about 50 Cent’s late mentor and friend, hip-hop pioneer Jam Master Jay of Run-DMC.

Before I Self Destruct is currently available for digital pre-order exclusively on iTunes.

Lil’ Wayne has once again become the main subject of rap fans, and it’s not because rapper is headed to jail in 2010. Lil’ Wayne’s official mixtape, “No Ceilings,” has become a massive hit online.

The success of “No Ceilings” couldn’t come at a better time for Wayne. The rapper recently pleaded guilty to attempted possession of a weapon in the second degree. While the guilty plea spared him a possible 3 1/2-to-7-year prison sentence, Wayne expects to serve one-year in jail.

Wayne will be sentenced in February.

Last night we broke the story that Google would be teaming with a number of well known artists to launch a promotion for its Music Onebox search, which was releasedlast week. Turns out, it’s launching a bit sooner than we thought: beginning tonight a number of well known artists will be offering exclusive songs and free downloads through Google’s Music search. To get the freebies and exclusives, simply run a Google query for the artist’s name (the album name works too in some cases).

One clarification: while these songs are being presented and promoted on Google, they’ll also be available on the site that’s actually streaming the songs — be it MySpace or Lala. In MySpace’s case the songs could also be potentially be surfaced on other search engines, though it sounds like artists will be asking their fans to search for them on Google as part of the promotion.

NOTABLE LINES:
I’m a grown ass man, I don’t sit on n****s laps and I ain’t look for any gifts out of Santa Claus lap.

N****s talk about compared to Sigie you wack, scrap I know you don’t want to talk about that, but since n****s talking lets talk about that.

Sh!t I witnessed, I can say sh!t that can make B look at you different.

The rapper Shawn called the police on me, cause I was front row at the Blueprint 3. I just wanted to see him MC, and reminisce when we were the R.O.C. But he called on the C O Ps, not only that he brought in the F E Ds. That’s telling me F you Sigie, so F you too and Bleek 3.

When I came home from a jail, doing my year and a day, you ain’t come 1 day to see me.

And you’ll never go to jail again, cause you knew I was the shooter. If my life was a movie Sigie would be the sequel.

Don’t get it f***ed up, this ain’t the greenlight for everyone to make a diss Jay-Z record. I still got love for the n***a, this is me taking my brother in the yard for 5 minutes. Cause I got a knot in my chest that needs to get unloosened. When you got love for a Mutha***** it don’t go away that easy, many people gonna walk in and out your life but only real friends leave footprints on your heart dog. But I think yours is fading in the sand. If me and you never talk again dog and I got to holla at you via MC on this mic, what up, how do you say, “Scream at Me.” The richest man ain’t the one with his first dollar dog, its the one who still got his first friend, Roc-a-fella for life, ITS THE ROC.

NEW YORK — If the Yankees were looking to change their tune heading into game two of the World Series, they couldn’t have picked better musical guests. Jay-Z and Alicia Keys rocked the sell-out crowd at Yankee Stadium with a raucous performance of the Big Apple anthem “Empire State of Mind.”

Decked out in his trademark Yankee fitted hat and matching jacket, Jay was looking to rally his team after a loss Wednesday. From the sound of things, he certainly did. The stadium thundered its approval after the duo’s performance.

“I made the Yankees hat more famous than a Yankee can,” he rapped from a stage placed in the outfield.

Swizz Beatz and Bruce Willis were among the many famous New Yorkers in attendance who swayed to the rapper’s lyrics.

“New Yoooorrrrk,” Keys sang from behind her piano before joining Jay-Z out front.

Images of the city flashed across several giant screens throughout the stadium.

The Yanks and the legendary MC already have a working relationship with each other. Derek Jeter uses “Empire State of Mind” as his at-bat music, and slugger Alex Rodriguez steps up to the batter’s box to the Roc Nation head honcho’s “Already Home.”

Jay-Z seemed to sense the moment and, as usual, rose to the occasion like Jeter would. “Let’s go,” he said afterward as he walked into the bowels of the stadium and climbed into the Maybach waiting for him.

After Thursday’s (October 29) game, the series shifts to Philadelphia, where the champs will host games three, four and (if necessary) five at Citizens Bank Ballpark.
