50 Cent: 'Eminem's New Album Ready In Weeks'

US rapper 50 Cent has said fellow hip-hop star Eminem's new album, 'Relapse', is just weeks away from completion.

The album, produced by Dr Dre, will be Eminem's first studio release since 2004's 'Encore'.

50 Cent said he had recently visited the rapper's studio to finalise the mix on one of his guest appearances on the record.

Speaking at the Sundance Film Festival, 50 Cent said: “His new album is almost actually done. I went to Detroit to mix my song 'I Get It In' with Dr Dre. Eminem is currently mixing his album right now.

50 Cent told Hollyscoop that Eminem was “maybe two weeks” away from finalising a release schedule for 'Relapse'.

When asked if he will make any more appearances on the album, 50 Cent replied: “Of course! I will be all over the record, you kidding me?

“You think I won't take advantage of the opportunity for everybody to look at me and listen to me. Yes I will.”

As previously reported, one of 50 Cent's guest appearances on the album, 'Crack A Bottle', leaked onto the internet earlier this month.

The song had initially appeared online in an incomplete form last November.
