50 Cent Premieres His ‘Get Up’ Music Video

November 6th, 2008 | Posted in Music News

Rap superstar 50 Cent has premiered a music video for the first single off his fourth major studio album, “Before I Self-Destruct,” which is due out December 16th.

In the video, which is inspired by Will Smith’s I Am Legend, the G-Unit boss is the last MC on earth. “I wanted to do something more exciting and interesting than the traditional club video,” 50 said on the “Get Up” video set. “The directors come in, and guys present treatments to me, and they aren’t my usual video directors, and we came up with a concept for it, just a little more futuristic. I took a scene that I seen in a Will Smith film, ‘I Am Legend.’… It’s a collage that I thought was interesting.”

In the song, which was produced by Dr. Dre’s former right-hand-man Scott Storch, the In Da Club hitmaker encourages folks to move on the dance floor and tells them he’s come to spread some “California Love” as well as some New York hate.

“Well, you know, ‘California Love’ is a great song,” 50 explained. “And this joint is more like it. It’s the same key and being played in the same key. … It’s the first thing that came to my head when I heard the beat. That’s what I feel like great music does. It inspires you to actually say something that you wouldn’t say. Although with different production, I wouldn’t have wrote the verses different and the intro different, but because I felt that way I started off, ‘I came to bring you that California love and New York hate, all of the above.’”

To Catch Ne-Yo Without A Helmet

Purple, Scott Storch and Ne-Yo
Ne-Yo and his superdome hit up the Mansion Nightclub in Miami Beach over the weekend. Scott Storch, Ne-Yo, Jade Cole and Talib Kweli were among attendance.

It is my belief that Ne-Yo should wear a silk scarf wrapped around his superdome at all times! His diminishing hair supply worries me. Is he really 25-years-old or is he old enough to play the dirty old man on NBC’s “To Catch a Predator”? Hey, I’m just sayin’.
