OK for those of you who have been waiting for Kanye West's and Ludacris' new albums will be happy to hear that Def Jam has decided to push both of their albums up a day!! Excitement!! Alright as most may already know Kanye's 808s and Heartbreaks has been leaked already and the label decided to push up the album to maximize sales for the end of the fouth quater. But here is the trip...both Luda's Theater of the Mind and Kanye's 808s and Heartbreaks are COMING OUT ON THE SAME DAMN DAY!!!! WHAT?! Ok lets tone it down a little. The smartest move for Def Jam? Who knows, but I will say this. When Kanye's last album came out not only did it sell very well it also ushered in the G.I.T.D Era (Glow In The Dark). SO coming off of that monster tour fans are on the edge of their seats for this new Kanye concept album.Same can be said for Luda. Dude has been busy doing movies and there has not been much music coming from him. But it will be interesting to hear what he has been up to. He beat T.I. for best rap album last year...but will he do it again seeing how T.I.'s newest album Paper Trail is almost a straight masterpiece?? We shall see but both Luda and Ye has loyal fanbases and most of which are going to pick up both albums anyway. AND lets not forget the have a young ACE up their sleeve. Ace Hood's album Gutta hits November 18th so Def Jams fourth quater wrap up is soild.
And Chamillionaire did annouce he was working on his new album Venom and a new Mixtape Messiah joint and it will be uber nice to hear from him again
Release Dates To Watch:
Ace Hood - Gutta, November 18th
Kanye West - 808s and Heartbreaks, November 24th
Ludacris - Theater of the Mind, November 24th
Chamillionaire - Venom, TBA
