50 cent say's he'll quit if Kanye West outsells him
"Let's raise the stakes," the 31-year-old rapper told hip-hop Web site SOHH.com in an interview posted Friday. "If Kanye West sells more records than 50 Cent on September 11, I'll no longer write music. I'll write music and work with my other artists, but I won't put out any more solo albums"
God, I hate Kanye with a passion, and I used to enjoy 50cent. I heard some of his new music, it's pretty good.
I might just have to go out and buy 50 cent's new CD. It'll be the first cd I've bought in....10 years?

I might have to go buy some Kanye then. I loathe 50 cent.
ETA: of course I won't actually, because it would be lame to play into their money grubbin' hands...smart though

Why don't you like Kanye? Is it because he said Gee Dubya doesn't like black people ;D
Nah seriously, I LOVE Kanye! I'll definately be buying his album. He is a great lyricist.

I don't care for his music, and I hate his cocky ass personality. Him and Jay Z...I dispise their personalities.
I saw 50 cent and Jay Z in concert....and I never liked Jay Z again.
50 Cent put on a very good show, and seemed likeable. Jay Z seemed like he was to good to be there.
Kanye's first couple of songs were good...but the rest have sucked, IMO. Add that to his attitude, and i just don't like him.

DIAF, both of you. Please.

50 Cent will edge Kanye West out of the top slot because his singles are performing stronger ("AYO Technology (She Wants It)" and "I Get Money" are hot!).
However, I predict both of these albums will have disappointing sales compared to their previous efforts. The kids just don't like 50 or Kanye West anymore.

Screw wanksta Fiddy and wack ass Kanye

Re: 50 cent say's he'll quit if Kanye West outsells him
In my opinion, all hip hop has been so blah lately! I'm not feeling any of 50's music.

Hip Hop died already....back in the 90s when we had the real playas in the game....that was when hip hop was real.
Geto Boys
Nice & Smooth
Paperboy
Kool G Rap
Souls of Mischief
Biggie Smalls
Tupac Shakur
Bone Thugs-N-Harmony.....they still on top of their game but the most underrated group in Hip Hop history.

Whatever, I like both Kanye and 50 Cent. I've danced to both of them in the past. I prefer Kanye's "Stronger" to 50's new ones and I think Kanye has broader appeal than 50.

Thats cool, i mean without all these mainstream "rappers" we wouldnt have music for dancing in clubs, partys, etc.

I have never had more reason to buy a Kanye album.

Re: 50 cent say's he'll quit if Kanye West outsells him
Is Kanye playing this game too?? Will he quit if he can't sell more than 50c? Seams 50's a bigger man and willing to risk it.
'Stronger' is 1 of my fav songs at the moment. Haven't heard the latest 50.

If ya gonna fall for this cheap schlock marketing scheme and bandy terms like "bigger man" about....then how bout you yunguns callin' for a duel to the death...loser commits suicide on pay per view with all procedes goin to charity...everybody wins!!!! The only thing better I could think of is a "Beyond Thunderdome" style cage match in which they both in theory could at least be killed or maimed to the point of sparing the world anymore of either ones shiite.:)

Nah the loser should have his tounge cut out and fingers broken but still be able to hear the winner's songs played.
Celebrity Deathmatch has probably done this already.

Re: 50 cent say's he'll quit if Kanye West outsells him
The only 50cent I will play is "Magic Stick", and that's because it's not him alone, but with Lil'Kim whom I used to like. I'm actually getting sick of it, but then at least I have something to play for the people who really want to hear him.
I literally, physically cannot play him, other than that--my fingers wouldn't push the fucking button. I can play a couple of Kanye West songs, but I've heard he's a total asshole in person, and it doesn't surprise me in the least.
I would love nothing better than to see 50cent stop putting anything at all out. What really gets me is the way the music industry promotes him as being more 'genuine' or whatthefuckever, because he used to sell crack and got shot. How many lives did he help destroy, I wonder? I'm supposed toi admire him for this? I don't think so, rather I have the utmost contempt for him instead. Would he care? Of course not, but neither do I, lol...
I also find it amusing that both these guys have gotten rich far more from the money shelled out by suburban punk wannabe badass types, than by the people from the culture they are supposedly representing.
R & B/Hip-hop was my favorite music at one point, but since then it has deteriorated to the point where I'm almost embarrassed to admit I ever liked it. However there does seem to be a few newer artists out there who have some talent.
As always, this is my opinion. We all have them, and sometimes we disagree. So it goes...

Kaylinn, I still can't believe you don't like Jay Z!!! Blasphemy!

Re: 50 cent say's he'll quit if Kanye West outsells him
i'd rather kanye west stick around than 50 cent. both have good songs... but kanye's have a bit more substance.
but i really love that song by 50 cent called p.i.m.p i think... just because i really like snoop dogg deep down inside...

Re: 50 cent say's he'll quit if Kanye West outsells him
Kanye is a cocky asshole, and 50 just can't rap worth a shit. It'd be fine with me if both of them threw in the towel.
