Washington, June 17 : Rapper 50 cent has revealed that he goes through phases of rapid creativity followed by disinterest in the song writing process.

The ''Candy Shop'' star - who is all set to release new album ''Before I Self Destruct'' - says he goes through phases of creativity followed by periods of disillusionment with music.

"I write at a rapid pace. I have binges. There''s points I''ll be in the studio and I''ve met moments when I''m there and unmotivated by production. Just there and unexcited about the whole s**t. Then there''s times when every beat that comes on, I have an idea," Contactmusic quoted him as saying.

50 cent also claimed that he finds it more difficult to write "commercial hit records" than personal tracks.

"When I start writing music to my core, I''m talking about the way I came up, the way I was raised. That''s easy to me. Tell me to make a commercial pop record, a commercial hit record and that''s more difficult to me than to create concepts that people are excited about where I''m from," he told MTV News. (ANI)
