There's really nothing to think about. I don't see why people don't get the fact that they told the public this is a friendly competition and that it's good for hip-hop, but they also acknowledged a lot of it is marketing. It's not a secret plan. They are good with each other...Kanye even did a track for 50's next album.

Same thing with 50 not making anymore solo albums. He said a few days later that it was more of a joke. The guy isn't as serious as everyone thinks...he's actually a funny guy in real life. Cocky? Maybe...probably more just confidence, and how could you blame him.
I just don't feel his stuff. I acknowledge he's incredibly talented at producing, probably the best since Dre, but that doesn't equate me totally feeling it. I enjoy some of his works, notably College Dropout, it the way he flows. His voice, and his pitch is not nearly as great as his producing skills, and it turns me off his amazing beats. If it was 100% instrumental, I would be more inclined to listen to it.

I don't exactly follow entertainment news, only bits and pieces. I haven't heard the whole story, but 50 went out and made a bold statement. You can expect some to hold him to his word.
