LL Cool J Dumps 50 Cent, Common Dumps Invincible Summer

by JOKESTA

WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 10, 2008

LL Cool J Dumps 50 Cent

Queens bred rapper LL Cool J has decided to scrap fellow Q-Boro rapper 50 Cent from his 13th and last album with Def Jam records.

The album, which was originally titled "Todd Smith Pt. 2: Back To Cool," was being executive produced by the Hip Hop power player who was also rumored to be featured on numerous tracks. LL even mentioned 50's feature and influence on numerous interviews.

The rapper turned actor seems to have had a change of heart and decided to scrap Fif from the album leaving only his hook on "Feel My Heart Beat."

"I'm not releasing the album he and I were working on. I took a few songs for (new album) 'Exit 13' and scrapped the rest,"  says LL.

"That's due to the fact that I don't think people want to hear me rhyming like 50," he explains.

Exit 13 hit stores yesterday, Tuesday, September 9th.

In other album news, Chicago MC, Common, has changed the name of his 8th solo LP from Invincible Summer to Universal Mind Control.

The name change came after the rescheduling of the album's release date from June 24th to September 22nd, 2008. 

Though the album will be released in the fall, Common says he created the techno-inspired music for the summer time.

"I created this music for the summer time, it's about feeling good... this is the type of music I felt was missing from my body of work" he tells Billboard Magazine.

The LP was produced by in its entirety by Pharrell Williams of The Neptunes.

LL doesn't need 50 on his album that much, it would have been a bad mistake anyway, so no problem with that,
and Universal Mind Control sounds better then Invincible Summer IMO, hope it'l be a good album, Common's a great MC

He just wanted to use 50 toget a bigger buzz and sell more on the last album. He's not dumb enough to let that garbage on his album.
