Attention all Cashis fans! The Shady Capo is coming back with new found outlook on the game. He is planning to drop a new street album called Shady Loyalty 1st before his first official release for Shady. Cashis sat down with AllHipHop to discuss the project.

I finished the Shady street LP and it’s just called Shady Loyalty First. I love the project it’s 12 tracks of undeniable fire. Young Buk from Psycho Drama, Mitchy Slick, and production from Rikanatti, Frank Dukes, Young De of Homeland Security. Everyone needs to check for the single. It’s like a real Shady Records anthem for 2010 through 2011.

One of his favorite records is a song about his daughter Miana, whose mom passed away.

So far one of my favorite records is Miana about my first daughter, her mom died and I went to jail and its like a Ms. Jenkins, but updated and looking back at life and problems that people go through. Its timeless and that separates it from anything. You can never go wrong doing a song being honest about your child.

Eminem‘s Recovery has taken back the top spot on Billboard and gone double platinum. The album has sold 2,112,996 copies so far. Congratulations, Eminem!

50 Cent recently spoke on his lowest and proudest life moments. Via VIBE.

LOSE SOME:

- There are certain things artists do that I can’t get away with. Eminem could put on a dress as a joke and people will go, “Oh that’s Eminem.” 50 Cent will do it and they’ll have a heart attack.

- Hip-hop culture, it shifts. Consumers have a low attention span. They want as much as possible when you’re in that window and then you’ll see a new artist come out and see him all over the place.

- My grandparents, because they had nine children, didn’t have anything that you would look at and say, “This is the lifestyle I want to be a part of.” [There wasn't anything] that would influence you to want to go in [their] direction.

- I don’t respect enough of the artists to be out on everyone’s record. It just doesn’t make sense to me. You know whose career makes a lot of sense to me? Andre 3000′s does. He’s still interesting.

- I regret not going into film production faster. I [have] an interest in the storytelling process in filmmaking, but I never really allowed myself to go into it with the same type of focus and excitement that I do with music.

WIN SOME:

My son’s a better version of me. He has some of my mannerisms, some of my attitude. My competitive side is definitely there. [But] he missed the hardships I had.

G-Unit hasn’t lost the ability to generate $4 million a year touring. That says that the music, the body of work to this point, it worked. And it’s still working.

With Things Fall Apart, I committed to a project that was pretty tough. Extremes, so people would see and understand that there is a passion there without getting to see a frame of film. So they say, “He lost 54 pounds in nine weeks for his role.”

The case Lil Wayne is in jail for now, when T.I. went, when Gucci Mane went—that was supposed to be 50 Cent. Sometimes I look at artists when they get in trouble after success and it makes me feel like they didn’t experience enough of that prior to the success. If you did, you would know better.

[Around my signing], Damon Dash made reference to a million dollars being no money . . . in a kind of derogatory way. When he said that, I paid close attention to where I was at financially. But maybe he should’ve paid attention to his.

Lloyd Banks signs with EMI; third studio album “H.F.M. 2″ (Hunger For More 2) slated for a November release

Album from Tony Yayo scheduled for early 2011

(New York, NY August 13, 2010) G-Unit Records has entered into an exclusive agreement with EMI Label Services in which EMI will distribute and promote releases on the G-Unit roster in North America. EMI will release the Grammy nominated multi-platinum rapper Lloyd Banks‘ third solo album “H.F.M. 2″ (Hunger For More 2) on November 23rd, 2010, and Tony Yayo‘s as yet untitled sophomore album, which is scheduled for early 2011.

G-Unit, formerly with Interscope Records, is joining a growing number of third party labels and artists to ink deals with EMI Label Services. EMI Label Services’ unique approach gives independent artists and labels creative freedom along with access to the expertise, marketing and promotional muscle of a major label.

The release Banks‘ H.F.M. 2 (Hunger For More 2), which will include the smash single “Beamer, Benz, or Bentley,” featuring Juelz Santana. The single has generated sales of more than 500,000 downloads, making it one of the biggest tracks of the year. EMI Label Services’ team will begin promoting a second track, “Any Girl,” at Urban and Rhythmic radio formats this month.

A Tony Yayo album, which will include the single, “Pass the Patron” (featuring 50 Cent) is slated for release in early 2011.

Mike Harris, executive Vice President/General Manager for EMI Label Services and Caroline Distribution said:

We are delighted to join forces with G-Unit and artists who are truly marquee names in hip-hop. G-Unit is a huge force. Lloyd Banks knows how to deliver a lyrical punch and his single has already generated huge anticipation for the album. Tony Yayo is a totally unique talent, and “Pass the Patron” already has the hip hop world buzzing about his album coming out next year.

According to Lloyd Banks, “It’s refreshing to see the EMI staff excited about my project, they have the passion and energy I haven’t seen in while.”

Per Tony Yayo, “The EMI staff is creative and willing to think outside the box. They are fans of my music and career. I’m looking forward to marketing and promoting my upcoming album with them.”

Banks solidified his star power with the release of his double platinum solo debut, Hunger For More in 2004, selling more than 450,000 copies its first week of sales making it the #1 album in the country. The album garnered Banks a Grammy nomination for Best Rap Solo Performance for “On Fire,” and included singles “Karma” featuring Avant and “I’m So Fly.”

Tony Yayo was catapulted onto the music scene in 2005 with the release of his debut album “Thoughts of a Predicate Felon” which went certified gold, and his smash hit single “So Seductive.”
