Here is the official GOT video premiere of 50 Cent’s brand new music video for “Get Up.” This is the first single from Before I Self Destruct – album in stores December 18th.

Rapper turned singer, T-Pain is back with another classic Hip Hop album, THR33 RINGZ, which hits stores today – November 11th. The vocoder crooner is back with more hits and music galore on his third album, with featured guests Ciara, Kanye West, DJ Khaled, Chris Brown, Lil’ Wayne, Musiq Soulchild, T.I. and Ludacris. I personally didn’t expect a solid album from T-Pain just using an auto-tuner but it works with him.

I feel no one can use the vocoder or vocalizer like him. With tracks like “Blowing Up“ featuring Ciara, “Therapy” featuring Kanye West, “It Ain’t Me“ featuring T.I. and Akon, it’s possible that any track on the album is potentially a hit single. Aside from his singles, “Can’t Believe It“ featuring Lil’ Wayne, “Chopped & Skrewed“ featuring Ludacris, and “Freeze“ featuring Chris Brown, you can smoothly flow into the album with a nice transition. You can truly listen to each song on the album without a skip besides the skits.

Seeing as Cassie used MySpace to jumpstart her career as a music artist, it’s only right that she uses it as an outlet to dispell any rumors going on about her. Recently, a rumor started circulating the blogosphere claiming that Cassie was scrapping her second album, after already releasing a single. Well, according to the “singer” … you can just scrap that idea itself, because it’s not true. She released a blog within 24 hours saying the following:

DK?

What’s up everybody??

A friend of mine forwarded me a link toa site with a made up quote about me joining Danity Kane. I want to make it clear to everyone that I am not joining Danity Kane! My second solo album is coming out in the Spring of ‘09 and I’m very excited about that. I don’t know where the fake message came from, but I know for a fact that it didn’t come from me. Anyway, I can’t wait to share more details about MY next solo project with you. Thanks guys, talk soon!

Def Jam’s leading lady Rihanna has everyone on edge waiting for her next album. Rihanna’s 2007, effort “Good Girl Gone Bad,” was the epitome of a pop album, and it’ll be Rihanna’s hardest effort to beat.  Def Jam has tons of songwriters, and producers sending tons of their best material in hopes of being hand picked from the many for this album. And, with all the chaos and commotion of who’s sending in what.  One of the demos have leaked.  It’s titled, “Bitch, I’m Special.“ The song is complete and utter fire.  The demo singer brings the track to life allowing you to hear that this track was specifically made for Rihanna.  I hope the label still considers this track even though the track has surfaced.  What do you think?
