50 Cent Fights Back After New Album Before I Self Destruct Leaks Almost a Month Before Its Expected Official Release

SANTA MONICA, Calif., Nov 03, 2009 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Responding to the extraordinarily early leak of 50 Cent's entire fourth studio album, Before I Self Destruct (Shady/Aftermath/Interscope), the highly explosive album will now release digitally on November 9th and in physical form will be available in stores on November 16th.

"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." Before I Self Destruct is currently available for digital pre-order exclusively on iTunes (www.itunes.com). Pre-order consumers will receive the exclusive track "Man's World" in addition to what post-release date iTunes consumers will receive -- the "Baby By Me" single; the bonus track "Flight 187"; the gritty coming-of-age Before I Self Destruct film written, directed and starring Curtis Jackson (aka 50 Cent); the "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; exclusive photos; animated package artwork and other surprises. The physical 1CD/2DVD package offered at retail will also include the Before I Self Destruct film and Jam Master Jay documentary.
