Kurupt is Engaged........

[Hambone (Guest)]

Once again, Kurupt, who prepares to drop his third album, has shed his single status by recently becoming engaged to Natina Reed of pop group Blaque. After the end of his relationship with BK rapper Foxy Brown, Kurupt says that Natina kept him concentrating on his dreams and not pettiness. "She helps keep me on point," he said. "She's in the music industry and knows a lot about the game."

Kurupt and Natina will go totally public once the first single drops from his latest album, Space Boogie : Smoke Oddessey. He also recorded the song, "Sunshine," dedicated to Natina. (On her new song "7:30," Foxy Brown has several choice words for Natina saying, among other things, "His heart still belongs to me.")

Not ironically, Kurupt says that the new album reflects his new found maturity. "This album is more mature musically. I'm more or less letting people into my mind," he said. That's why I named this one Space Boogie: Smoke Oddessey, because it's a whole new realm that I've never been in. Along with Natina, he says that Snoop Dogg also guided him to evolve. "I talk to Snoop about life. Snoop made me realize that there is a lot at stake now. I'm burnt out on all that (wild living)," he said.

"It's Over," the first single off the album, features his fiancée who actually raps on the second verse. She will also play his love interest in the accompanying "Grease-styled" video for the song. Currently, Kurupt is also working on several film projects including "Plague Season," with Ving Rhames and "The Wash" with Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg.

Good point man. I still wanna hear the kurupt we've always heard.  The kurupt who always brought lyrical heat. I don't want no pop shit.

[So Much Style]

those songs on kurupt-online.com are dope, so this album will be dope, fred wreck will produce this AS A GEM, so far the 3 i have heard from him are total burners

[DPGC2001]

It's over now isn't that bad as alot of peeps make it out to be, it's just a single to bring Kurupt to a larger audience...Hopefully this album won't be as slept on as the last...

Man notice rappers frequently lose the gangsta and hardness after marriage but theyc an maintain skill just major change of subject matter, example: ice cube, but in the case of kurupt he can use a subkect matter change gangsa shit is cool but goddamn it'sa new millenium...peace-Tanjint

hey..u gotta settle down sometime.......im sure daz and the rest of his single homeboyz will make sure he is comin correct....

[Goldme]

I'm lookin forward to the album.

Only thing I hope is she doesn't get involved into his work. I mean she fucked "it's over" up, the bitch can't sing and the chorus was just horrible.

Rather have that track off the album.

Instead of puttin that ugly ass, wanna be Left-Eye on that song (no offense, Natina Reed is annoyin in my opinion) he could put someone who could sing in her place.

[Now_Im_Not_Banned]

Perhaps we will see less "Fuck a bitch"?

[West Coast Veteran]

when i first heard "its over" i thought it was ok cause it was the Kingpin but now i think its so fuckin wack..its hella irritating..well his fiance is what ruins the song..

[Sikotic™]

She's a ugly hood rat too. I'm sorry but Kurupt got bad taste in women.
