50 Cent’s new album Before I Self Destruct is reported to be scheduled for release in early 2009 – though there is no concrete date as yet.

The hip hop artist’s fourth studio album, his final on record label Interscope Records.

Initially, Before I Self Destruct was planned to be 50 Cent’s 2007 album, however, he decided to release Curtis instead, and thus Before I Self Destruct’s release date was originally pushed back to 2008.

The album’s release date was initially announced to be February 4, 2008, but later moved to March 2008, due to the release date of Curtis being pushed up to September 2007. However it was later revealed, in an interview with G-Unit members Tony Yayo and Lloyd Banks, that the album is scheduled to be released during the 4th quarter of 2008, with 50 Cent himself later stating that the album was due to be released December 9, 2008. MTV later reported that the album will instead be released in 2009, with February 3 being the date 50 Cent himself confirmed.
