Swizz Beatz Working On New Bangers For 50,Usher & More

If you thought DMX was full of bull about doing his gospel album, he*s apparently not. The is still working on the project, which will be a double-LP of traditional X and nonsecular tunes called Walk With Me Now, Fly With Me Later. He*s barking at two of the most influential producers in the game right now: Pharrell Williams and longtime collaborator Swizz Beatz.+
"I*m helping him out with it," Swizz said Tuesday in New York. "I just hooked him up with Pharrell for the gospel joint'

Not even a month into &08, and Swizz already has his hands full with just-released music and tracks that are ready for the next few months. He*s most excited about a reunion of the Ruff Ryders for their first family album. It will include himself, X, the LOX and Drag-On 〞 all the originals who first exploded 10 years ago.!

"I*m in my zone," Swizz noted. "I*m bringing the Ruff Ryders back real major in &08. It*s gonna be a lot of Ruff Ryders sh每 in &08. Not taking away from D-Block, not taking away from Bloodline. It*s stamping the brand that started all this sh每. They letting me do whatever I wanna do as the president [of the company]. This is what I wanna do. Do this album, 10 bangers. Trying to get a joint from [Dr.] Dre, Primo [DJ Premier]. We got Dame Grease. All the original producers, everything to make the Ruff Ryder album authentic head-banger hip-hop. I got everybody right now. X just sent me five verses. Trust me. I don*t accept just any X [verses]. You*ll see. This is the real deal. I*m not gonna do it if it*s not the real deal.

Swizz always has his outside work as well. Besides appearing on the remix of Mary J. Blige*s "Just Fine" with Lil Wayne (which features the "Dr. Carter" verse that Wayne exclusively rapped a cappella for Mixtape Monday Video), he*s worked on Weezy*s Tha Carter III LP; 50 Cent*s Before I Self Destruct; the G-Unit*s Lock and Load group album; Fat Joe*s The Elephant in the Room; and is getting ready to go in with N.E.R.D., Macy Gray ("I just politicked with her. She wants me to set the tone for her album") and Usher.

"I*m still finding out what vibes they wanna mess with," Swizz says about Usher*s LP. "It*s very tricky and confusing. So many people come in. The artist*s gotta be in that right frame of mind."

uSwizz the rapper is still in full swing as well. He just leaked a record called "Hard Knocks" with Drag-On. It*s the first offering from Beatz*s upcoming follow-up to One Man Band Man.

"Everybody is expecting &It*s Me Bitches* or &Money in the Bank,* " he said. "I just want to use my opportunity to get a little more serious in the artist department, as a performer and lyricist. Not giving a f〞 about radio and all that. I just want to give hip-hop something that*s not on the radio. A lot of the songs I got can blend in on the radio, but &School of Hard Knocks* don*t blend in with nothing on the radio. I*m already in full mode. What they want me to do? Let*s get it. I*m busting shots early 〞 bong, bong!' P._

J. X"The title is between Life After the Party and Remember Hip-Hop," he continued. "I*m in between them. I don*t even have a date on my joint. I*m just feeling out the scene."

AAlso still up in the air whether Swizz will release his project on Universal Records again.

I really don't enjoy music because of the violence it supports and the type of language it uses. I mean the black man wants to harm white and asian peoples so why listen to the music. And why does some of asian youth wanna be like a black man in the way they talk and dress?
