Jay-Z vs. David Banner?
That’s probably how UMG will frame the next SoundScan “battle.”
According to Eskay and the New York Times, Jay-Z has a new album, American Gangster, coming out on November 6. Obviously, he’s had this planned for a minute but waited until after Kanye v. 50 to announce it. More than likely the album will be cross-promoted with the similarly titled movie, which drops on 11/2/07.
Also, I smell a Roc-A-Fella comeback coup. How else can you explain this lineup:
- November 6th: American Gangster (Jay-Z)
- November 20th: The Solution (Beanie Sigel)
- November 27th: Free At Last (Freeway)
Lil Wayne, who’s also eyeing a 4th Quarter release date for Tha Carter III, was unavailable for comment. Here’s Weezy’s expression after hearing the news.

An actual concept album from Jay sounds good. Themes are good plus he’s the rap Martha Stewart right? These crazy kids and their zany ideas…
