50 Cent has brought the release date of his new album 'Before I Self Destruct' forward by a week after it leaked online.
The long-awaited album will now be available on November 16.
As previously reported on Gigwise, 'Before I Self Destruct' began appearing on file-sharing websites last week.
Speaking on US radio station Shade 45, 50 Cent said: "I feel good that it was leaked in its entirety, in sequence, so people can hear my vision.”
He added that he expected the album to sell well despite the leak.
“I don't know why. They're like, 'This shit is fire.' I'm like, 'What are you surprised for, stupid?'”
The rapper's last album, 'Curtis', was released in 2007.
