Any proof of this? I cant believe kanye actually outsold 50.
I just recently heard this on the radio, but if you want some sort of pre-sale proof, here ya go: Rolling Stone : 50 Cent or Kanye West? An Unscientific Record-Store Exit Poll
Here is another article that is more recent that is already counting the sales.
Kanye West outselling 50 Cent in 'feud' - Los Angeles Times
What was the deadline date?
His first album sold a lot, because it was damn good...he'll never live up to it. Plus his name was attached to Eminem and Dr. Dre. His second album is pretty bad, but probably sold a lot, because people figured his first was so good that it must be good as well. I heard a few good songs on the new one, but that's it. And hell no, I didn't buy it. I honestly don't know anyone personally who will...it makes me wonder how he even sold that much.
By the way, it's 781,000 to 603,000 right now...but it isn't over until Sunday night. I'm not the biggest Kanye fan, but I'd like to see him take it by a lot, because he actually produced every song himself, rather than taking other peoples beats and throwing shitty lyrics on them. Kanye put in way more work, so I feel he should be rewarded. Even though album sales don't really mean shit...it's something he cares about I guess.
Also, 50 already said that his next album is due in March '08 and he's 80% done with it [even has a Kanye track on it]. What he said about 'quitting' had to do with marketing. If you don't want to listen to the music, simply don't. Not hard to do.
If 50 cent is gonna put out another album after losing to Kanye then he is a lying bitch.
yeah if 50 does put out another i hope that wack shit dont even go gold...first for sucking and second for lying about sucking....game ruined his career and i find it honestly ironic...if it werent for vitamin water and gunit clothes he'd be on the streets in a short time
If he doesn't stop producing music, he's a sellout
I forgot to mention that Graduation is a very good album.Quote:
