50 Cent is reportedly set to release his new album Before I Self Destruct on the same day as Jay-Z's highly anticipated Blueprint 3.

A G-Unit insider allegedly leaked Fif's plan to take on Jigga this fall.

If reports are accurate, the Roc Nation President can expect a future SoundScan ambush from fellow East Coast rapper, 50 Cent. According to reports, Fif plans to drop his fourth album Before I Self Destruct on the same day as Jay's highly anticipated Blueprint 3.

Now 50 Cent couldn't defeat his mentee Kanye West when they had a soundscan battle. So can someone tell me, Curtis would want to go up against Jay Z? Hell, Curtis couldn't event beat Jay on the Forbes Hip Hop Cash Kings list! Down Goes Frasier! Mayday! Abort Mission!
