Two altered names after, 50
Cent's "Curtis" also goes through a change in the release date. From the initial
June 26, the date has been pushed back to September 4 in U.S. and a day earlier
in U.K.
The delay has been reasoned as giving a chance for guest artists to complete
their track. As previously reported, 50 Cents ropes in a number of renowned
musicians such as Mary J. Blige, Akon and Justin Timberlake to work on this
album. For the production itself, there has been report on Dr. Dre, Eminem and
Timbaland.
Though no track listing has been announced, two songs have made the cut and
hit the radios. "Straight to the Bank and "Amusement Park", however are getting
slow airplay by peaking at No. 49 and 53 respectively on Billboard Hot
R&B/Hip-Hop chart.
In the meantime, the album is going through a heavy promotion with the videos
of the two tracks already completed and a fan contest to vote for which song
should 50 Cent sing in June 26th BET Awards.
