After seeing his release date pushed back numerous times, D-Block enforcer Styles
P is finally gearing up to release his long awaited sophomore LP, Time
Is Money.

The disc, which is now scheduled to hit shelves on December 19, will be the
follow-up to 2002’s A Gangster and a Gentleman. The record was originally slated
to drop last year and has since received numerous shaky release dates with none
of them delivering the Yonkers-bred MC’s new material. The album’s supposed
lead single, “I’m Black” received a fair amount of radio play last
year, as did the single “Can You Believe It” featuring Akon, which
a video was also shot for. The release boasts guest appearances by Gerald
Levert, Akon, Jagged Edge, J-Hood, Mario Winans, Floetry’s Marsha Ambrosius,
Rashad, Talib Kweli and The Lox. The album’s production will be handled
by hit makers Scott Storch and Swizz Beatz
among others.

In related news, Styles P has continued to hit the mixtape circuit and recently
released a new mixtape in support of Time is Money entitled “Industry Xposure:
Close To The Concrete” with DJs P-Cutta and DNS. The mixtape features new
and unreleased music and freestyles along with classic material from The Ghost
himself.

Time Is Money will hit shelves on December 19 on Interscope Records.
