As the NBA season is about to kickoff, Houston Rockets' newly acquired small forward Ron Artest figures to get his feet wet and release his latest mixtape "King Of Queens."
Rolling Stones have reported mixtape guru DJ Drama will promote the mixtape. So far into his career, the Queens rapper has received backlash in regards to his efforts to rap, but with the addition of DJ Drama, the mixtape will hopefully turn the doubters into believers.
Though Artest's debut album "My World" was only able to sell 343 copies its first week, he still acknowledges that selling isn't an arduous task, especially in this day in age.
Artest explained his view to a Chinese Hip-Hop site by saying: "It is not hard to sell music. I think people who buy music are not stupid. When 50 put out Curtis he tried to fool people and his fans wanted that real 50. Same with Nas and Nastradamus and Jay with the one album that he had that was unsuccessful…People don’t want to hear lies, they want pure hearted music."
Artest's mixtape is currently online and available for download.
