This Weeks News On The DL reported:

Rumors are saying that 50 Cent is signing with Dr. Dre's Aftermath imprint. Dope, but hey where's the Rakim album?

Doesn't really matter to me, cuz dre will probably drop him b4 his album comes out anyway, lol

50 Cent is ill, for real 'Power Of The Dollar' was crazy dope, over the right production he could blow up...

Plus 50 is gully as fuck, he got shot in the legs several times and once in his jaw, and he still drove himself to hospital, y'all cant fuck with that...

Hmmm, well I read something recently about 50 Cent, infact it was only yesterday it surfaced over at eastatic.com and there was no mention of Dre. Here's the article:

The man who showed us how to rob an industry n*gga has been missing in action for some time now, but after suffering multiple gun-shot wounds, guess who's back, 50 Cent has returned to the hip-hop scene sounding better than ever.
"Guess Who's Back?" is this year's early offering from 50 in the form of a mix-tape more than a full LP following the success of a 12" release "50 Shot Ya," which received a major amount of spins from radio and club DJs, seems like 50 Cent just had to get some older material off his chest before moving on to the bigger and better things. The album features previously unheard tracks, as well as classic singles and mix-tape freestyles.

The release of course also gets attention for containing the now "controversial" cut, "Too Hot," featuring Nas and Nature, which these days getting those two QB emcees together on a track might sound like an impossibility, Nas also appears on "Who U Rep With," along with the Bravehearts. Moving right along and falling back into his flow, 50 throws his witty jabs on "That's What's Up," with G Unit, who themselves don't lack in lyrical delivery, featuring the beat of Wu-Tang Clan's "Y'all Been Warned." Speaking of borrowed beats, check out "Doo Wop Freestyle," where 50's freestyling over EPMD's "Symphony 2000" sample.

Such classics as "Life's On The Line" , "Corner Bodega," as well as "50 Bars" , "Rotten Apple" and "F*ck You" along should speak for themselves and the kind of a rapper 50 Cent is.

The only draw back of "Guess Who's Back?" is the fact that the sound quality overall is not there, somewhat leaves you reminded of a bootleg tape you might have picked up around the corner
