50 Cent Clears Up “New Day” Confusion
50 Cent recently released his new single “New Day,” which featured Alicia Keys and Dr. Dre. Weeks prior, Alicia serviced the same song as her single. Confused yet? Well, in an interview with xxlmag, Fif explains what actually happened.
Switching gears again, this time to the music, how does it work out where you and Alicia Keys both have singles called “New Day” in such close proximity and your version has the same instrumental and her same hook as her earlier release?
The actual track was produced originally for [Dr. Dre’s album] The Detox. I was actually recording with Dre for his record and when he played it, it had a chorus that was a little darker. When he sent it to her, Alicia sent it back with “New Day” and it had additional strings on it. He wasn’t sure that he wanted to use it because of creatively where he was at on his project. I was like, ‘I can use that’ because it would be the bright side of what I’m offering in my body of work. He was like, ‘Okay, take it then.’ Obviously, it was a hit. They’re sitting on it and after a while, she recorded additional verses and leaked the record.
I’ll take a 50/Nas collaboration over this.
I’ll take a 50/Banks collaboration over this.
SMH at people acting like he jacked he when she jacked the record and leaked without permission. SMH
So interesting….
Like it or not the track is doing well so far
Cool track. ^@Anon, I was thinking about a 50/Nas joint yesterday as I was listening to “Life is Good”. That would be dope but unlikely it’ll happen.
50/Nas already collaborated but it wont happen again. Nt w Nas and his Supreme Team and bring back Murder Inc thing he got going on
Let’s hear Alicia’s side of the story. Sounds to me like Curtis wanna start making some beef to promote his new stuff. Typical Curtis. Curtis go make mends with G-Unit instead.
@King Ant, What track?
“New Day” song is nice. But a new “Day New” remix with Eminem would be nice too. Hope gets Just Blaze on the new album 2 or 4 tracks.
Nas already had an MC Burial for this actor.
Dre giving alway all his detox tracks. i bet we hear more on eminem next album
Song is a hit regardless of how it came about..I’m excited to hear some more of Fif’s album material
stop bitching critics.
Look at 50s bullshit explanation as for why he wanted the song
“I can use that because it would be the bright side of what im offering in my body of work” Haha you only wanted it because as soon as you heard that hook,you knew it was a hit.Dre passed on it,you took it,wrote verses to it gave it to EM who mixed it and you put it out there.End of.
actually the actualities of what actually happened was factually actually. cause actually see this is actually an act of the actual actualtors.this is all actual.
50 got a hit!!!!!!!! drop a video
SMH@stupid shit. If FIF talk like Birdman i would understand your point but the man is talking proper. Your nothing more then a bitter MMG groupie that is emotional.

Even before I read the part I knew Curtis was gonna say actual and actually. Lo and behold, guess what he did…
@Name Withheld. Your bitter too huh? Let me guess FIF didnt autograph your G-UNIT sneaker?
Actually lol
If anyone would’ve told you 5 years ago, 50 would be in less control of his music. You would’ve disagreed. From the album release date, that mixtape that EVERYONE thought would be an album and now this.
Curtis uses actual and actually so much I’m afraid I may actually catch that actual habit.
i knew it the first time it was for detox thats y 50 wanna put out his album,dre is gining 50 n eminem his tracks for detox for there new albums,you remember get rich or die trying n marshall mathers lp thats what happened dre gave them all his songs

Pretty soon, all the DETOX contributors will take their detox records back and put em out as leaks & singles lol. Cause ain’t never ___________ ya’ll already know. lol

I think this song has has the potential of a “Run This Town” (Hov, Ye, Ri) I didn’t like that song either but you can tell it will be a radio hit, with possible opportunities for commercials and movies etc.
The “actual” thing is weird.
