Well, 50 Cent has released the first single from his forthcoming album Before I Self-Destruct, and the Scott Storch-produced “Get Up” sounds kind of like an inverted, oddly muted take on “In The Club,” only with 50 gritting his teeth during his boastful/boring rhymes. Because, as he would like to remind you: He has money! He is utterly convinced of his awesomeness! He still uses the phrase “make it rain”! Kind of weird that 50 is singing about having lots of wealth as Storch twiddled the knobs, given the producer’s well-chronicled cashflow issues, but I guess 50 figured that he should just be happy getting any work after the Paris Hilton/Brooke Hogan one-two punch.

These two truly deserve one another. Truly.
I can’t argue with results, but am I the only one who thinks that Storch’s beats sound like they came out of a Casio keyboard’s demo preset? Goes to show that anything flies if it’s catchy enough. Back to bobbing my head.
@panfriedcharlie: Oh god, yes, Storch has some of the cheesiest synth patches in major label rap. And his beats aren’t even that catchy, really.
