Rap producer Swizz Beatz has announced plans to make a return to the studio with an experimental album featuring global sounds.
According to Swizz, a portion of the album's profits will go toward charity.

The upcoming solo project would be his latest since 2007.
It wasn't until his first solo album, 2002's G.H.E.T.T.O. Stories, that he started to get notices for his production style and interesting ideas. The next five years would find him landing hit after hit and becoming more in demand with each production. In 2007 he released the infectious single "It's Me Snitches" to promote the coming full-length One Man Band. (All Music)

In addition to his own music, the producer recently spoke on DMX's drug recovery.
"Me and X probably have the realest of realest talks," Swizzy said in an interview. "If a person don't wanna help themselves, then there's nothing you can do. The good thing is that X is willing to help himself. He's on that track. I know the X I can work with, I know the X I cannot work with. Right now [he] is the X I can work with. That's why he's on the ['Who's Real'] remix smashing it and we got about seven other records that, if we put out right now, it would mess everybody up... But I wanna have the proper setup where he's getting a fair chance and the most attention and most respect right now...I'm not putting nothing out until we have the lineup together, which we're close to having, and the streets are going to witness that raw uncut street element."
