Prince and his former record label Warner Bros. Records parted ways more than 20 years ago. Today (April 18), the Purple One and the label have rekindled their musical partnership to release some exciting new projects.
According to a press release (via City Pages), the new deal gives the R&B icon ownership of all his master recordings, something that he’s been fighting for since leaving the label in the mid-’90s.
Under the new deal, Prince plans to release a digitally re-mastered, deluxe version of his classic 1984 album ‘Purple Rain’ in celebration of its 30th anniversary this summer. The collection will include “long-awaited previously unheard music,” but it’s unclear of what that material would be.
In addition, Prince will record a new album for Warner Bros., which is rumored to be the ‘Plectrum Electrum’ LP with his band 3rd Eye Girl.
“A brand-new studio album is on the way and both Warner Bros Records and Eye are quite pleased with the results of the negotiations and look forward to a fruitful working relationship,” Prince said in the press release.
Cameron Strang, Chairman & CEO Warner Bros. Records, is also ecstatic of their new partnership with Prince. “Everyone at Warner Bros Records is delighted to be working with Prince once again: he is one of the world’s biggest stars and a truly unique talent,” he said. “We are also very excited about the release of new and re-mastered music from one of his greatest masterpieces.”
Congratulations to Prince and his new deal with Warner Bros. Records. Now let’s get crazy!
50 Cent has voiced his opinions on fellow hip hop veterans Puffy and Jay Z and their ability to stay relevant.
In an interview with radio station Baltimore's 92Q Jams, the rapper shared his thoughts on Puffy's resurgence in music, and why he doesn't like the single "Big Homie."
"If the guy doesn't have significant savvy with the actual business or with the actual culture he'll be out of here," he said. "You'll see Jay around as long as he's been around. What he's on like 11 albums? Puff's still out there. He don't even need a record. Cause he don't got one. Like you know Puffy ain't got no music that you wanna hear. That 'Big Homie' s***is garbage. I'mma keep it all the way real with you. Because the guy says 'Don't worry about if I write my rhymes, I write checks.' And then sings to you."
He also talked about his upcoming album Animal Ambition and how far he's come as an emcee and a storyteller.
"The whole project is about prosperity," he said." I wrote this giving you portions of my journey. And it's what actually got me here. Like Get Rich Or Die Tryin 'was all the dysfunctional behaviors I experienced. It had everything that was in the environment that I came across. Whether it was 'P.I.M.P.' or 'High All The Time.' The junkie—When you see a guy that is actually high all the time, you understand why I actually wrote 'High All The Time.' It's just me actually using things literally around me. This project is even easier to pinpoint real cool things to write about because of the actual second half of that actual journey."
What do you think of Diddy's comeback single?

50 Cent recently hit up NYC's The Breakfast Club to talk in depth about new music, family and the recent tension between himself and former G-Unit allies, Tony Yayo and Lloyd Banks. Both artists had big hits and equally impressive sales early in their careers, but have since fallen off the radar. 50 obviously noticed the two rappers lose fans' attention, and said in regards to Yayo:
"Some people are like milk...they have an expiration date."
Many Hip-Hop fans were taken aback by the comment, feeling that 50 and Yayo's friendship went back much further than the music, and that such a comment would've been better kept in close circles.
Yayo took to Twitter to express his disappointment in 50's comment, saying he took bullets for the crew and was a major part in building its brand.
Peep the tweet above. Was 50 out of line for his comment, or simply stating facts?
