50 CENT has postponed the release of his new album until early 2009, so he can pack it with extra features.
Before I Self-Destruct was slated to hit stores in the U.S. on 9 December - but Fiddy wants to give fans better value for their money, and will add some extras, including a DVD about the life of his late pal Jam Master Jay.
He says, "Times are hard. Everyone is trying to make the most of what they have. I want to give my fans something extra for their hard-earned dollars. They'll get a free bonus when they pick up the album."
50 Cent isn't the only rapper making fans wait - Jay-Z and Eminem have already pushed the release of their new albums back to 2009.

50 CENT - 50 CENT'S HOLLYWOOD HOPES UNDER OBAMA'S REGIME
Rapper 50 CENT is hoping BARACK OBAMA's election victory will help his budding acting career - by striking a blow against racism in Hollywood.
Fiddy claims that, despite the success of African-American stars such as Will Smith, Samuel L. Jackson and Denzel Washington, there is still a black and white divide within the movie industry.
But he is hopeful the presence of a black man in the White House will help tear down some walls.
The star - who has appeared in movies Get Rich or Die Tryin' and Righteous Kill - says, "There's two Hollywood. There's white Hollywood and there's black Hollywood. Those lines are still there, but this is a step to getting rid of those lines."

50 CENT - 50 CENT LIFTED SONG IDEA FROM EMINEM :)
Hip-hop star 50 CENT sneaked a look through EMINEM's computer files in order to draw inspiration for a new song.
The In Da Club hitmaker is set to release his latest album, entitled Before I Self Destruct, later this year (Dec08).
And he has fellow rapper Eminem to thank for one of the tracks, after visiting his rapper friend at home in Detroit - and lifting some music from his PC.
He says, "I did a song produced by Dr. Dre. I got the production from Detroit, because Dre was working with Em right before I got out there. I just missed him. I went through Em's computer and found what I needed. Yes, I did.
"I got me the record I needed. I was like, 'Wait till they hear this'. I wrote it; Em heard it. He was like, 'You gotta keep that for yourself. This is too crazy.' First, I think he was gonna take it from me, then he was like, 'He gotta use that for himself.'"
