50 Cent’s Street King Immortal Album Gets November 13 Release Date | XXL

50-Cent-SK-550x394.jpg


looks as if 50 Cent's fifth studio album, "Street King Immortal," will finally see the light of day. On Saturday (July 28), 50 dropped the album's first single, "New Day."

"New Day," produced by Dr. Dre and mixed by Eminem, features Alicia Keys on the triumphant chorus and long-time collaborators, Dre and 5, rapping about their accomplishments. Listen here:



"Street King Immortal" will be released by Shady/Aftermath/Interscope on Nov. 13. The album has faced repeated delays due to miscommunication between him and Interscope Records. But that's all in the past for Interscope Geffen A&M chairman, Jimmy Iovine, is not only on board but says "STREET KING IMMORTAL is the best album I'v made sense "GET RICH OR DIE TRYIN," 50 tweeted.

While prepping "Street King Immortal," 50 has become a licensed boxing promoter and paired up with boxing Champion Floyd Mayweather to create The Money Team (TMT) Promotions. TMT Promotions has signed featherweight boxer Yuriokis Gamboa, middleweight boxer Andre Dirrell and Billy Dib.

Khaleds singles sell more than nikkas do for their entire career..

Im so hood
Out here grinding
Take It To the Head
We taking over
Im on one
All I do is win

if you really want to get technical, all Khaled albums are just compilations...and those typically dont sell well to begin with

he's the hood version of flo rida, big singles...and nothing to show for it in album sales.

i dont understand how HE makes any $$$$ off ANY of this rap shyt...

his "anthems" always got the 3 hottest rappers out... thats $$$ for them Ft's + the $$ for the production..

then his album never reach gold.... HOW IS DJ KHALED MAKIN ANY $$$$ OF THIS?

wouldnt his label take pretty much all of thee cut of the profits? since they puttin in the $$$ for the budget of the album

why would khaled get any $$$ what does he even do?

why does he need to be on these "anthems" all he says is some jibberish @ the begining.. these songs cant be made without him?

i dont understand the khaled business model

I think DJs get free verses from rappers. :leostare:

I honestly do. :ohmy:

you know how hard it would be to get label clearance and pay each rapper? :pachaha:

Khaled seems like a big schmoozer and probably has cultivated good relationships with these artists. They drop a few verses on his anthems as a favor and get free promotion out of the deal. Khaled gets the proceeds. :ehh:

nikka what were the expectations, I dont think that nikka has ever sold 50k in his first week

Was he supposed to do 200k or something

Who is really suprised

khaled never sells a lot of albums, that's not really his lane.


just because somebody dosent sell a lot dosent mean there not hot at the moment, didn't future sells around the same and he stays on the radio and seems like the go to man right now in the south as far as hooks.

i'm pretty sure this is exactly it (or severely discounted). they might get some royalties too

:what:

you do realize that most of his production is dudes he's been working with for a long time... Cool N Dre, The Runners etc. ? that's in house production

That whole So. Fla/ YMCMB camp pretty much all have been working together for the last 6 or 7 years.. thats fukking forever in hip hop... they cutting records just cause that's fam... they ALL make money off them songs when they do shows. Khaled Spins their Records when he's hosting in a club too.

win win situation.


you dont understand the business model, cause you're thinking of him as a rapper... he's not a rapper, he's a DJ.
