Several artists recently announced the February release of their upcoming mixtapes including B.o.B., Bun B, Cassidy, Chris Brown, Curren$y, Joell Ortiz and Novel, Juelz Santana, Kuniva, OJ Da Juiceman, Styles P, and Wordsmith. While Tony Yayo has been advertising that his Gunpowder Guru: The LP album prequel will hit iTunes on February 9, it appears that the project has sprung an early leak today thanks to Amazon.com. Just three weeks after his release of Prenuptial Agreement, J. Stalin will release his follow-up entitled The Annulment. Speaking of follow-ups, Sadat X has revealed the delay of his forthcoming Wild Cowboys II album until March 23.
