While some know Joe Budden from his Grammy nominated single “Pump
It Up” off his self-titled debut in 2003 on Def Jam, others know Joey most for
his fan-favorite Mood Muzik mixtape series. With the most recent one being Mood
Muzik 3: For Better Or For Worse [click to listen].
Fans of the series will be happy to hear that Budden has
inked a deal with Amalgam Digital to release an official retail version,
entitled Mood Muzik 3: The Album, on February 26, 2008.
The retail version will contain unreleased material as well
as full versions of the songs that faded out on the mixtape (“Ventilation” and “All
of Me”). On top of that, all tracks will be without DJ voice overs.
“With the Mood Muzik series gaining mass attention, this is
just our effort to maximize on awareness. Amalgam understands our vision, as we
do theirs, so this will be first of many ventures to come. We have a full
length album entitled ‘Padded Room’ coming second quarter 2008. We’re prepping
for a big year … are you in that mood yet?!?!”Joe Budden says of the venture
with Amalgam Digital and his upcoming album.
