Anywho i’m Getting both of these men albums there BOTH talented so more
Black POWER Ya’ll. YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

BTW i would sleep with both of them HOw yall Doin’ ALROight!

@ Trailblazer & Fudge, you make excellent points.
Negroes fall for the okey-doke every time; especially when they get a little pocket change. Instead of combining forces, which is exactly what some white people would do, they play this game of pitting themselves against each other like rabid dogs. Even their pictures are reminiscent of uncontrollable, angry animals. lol. It’s the same in the business world. Reason number 4,250,887 why we will not persevere in this country.

I would actually smash 50. ewwww

those photos look like they came from the casting for Planet of the Apes

I was thinking right? I hate 50 cent so much that it has led me to want to buy Kanye’s Album…

but Kanye is an arrogant son of a beeootch 2, so if he outnumbers 50 on sept. 11, he will just talk shit all year round.

But I hate 50 more so… Graduation in stores Tuesday September 11th

I am buying both cd I’m ready 4 the hype to be over.

im trippin how niggaz is saying how 50 look like a ape and shit……..if u want a prettyboy go look at an r&b nigga for goodness sake…..this a album not “RATE MY PIC”

hands down KANYE already won

i like the way that every topic about rappers are turned into some “food for thought” type moments, never gets old, sikkkkkkke

@ BAM BAM

Go back, and read what I typed again. Now where does it say that I’m a fan of either?

YOU can go suck all the dick in the world if that’s what YOU wanna do, but I’ll pass.

Why are yall paying these idiots any attention? They are both garbage

Hell Naw I ain’t supporting nennone of them cuz this is bullish it’s Kenny Chesney all the way for me and I don’t even like country music

I’m amazed at all these kats trying to defend 50 cent “loose change” as if he’s a real artist. There is NOTHING real about that dude. U think he makes music b/c he likes it? U think he makes music for his fans? Hell to the naw!

50 said himseLF that the only reason he got into the music industry was b/c of the money. He just wanted to make money. Thats what its always been about. He glorifies the dolla bills and thats a problem.

Y do u think he has nothing to talk about on his songs? B/c he knows for a fact (as all of u buyers have proven on his every albums) that he can rhyme about some bullshit and ya’ll still eat it up as if it tasted good. He’’s a rapper without a conscious. He dont have a soul He doesn’t care about who’s on the receiving end of his music. All he wants is the money, and you’re only helping him make more.

I was pissed when 50 had the nerve to say that the song “In da club” was a celebration of life. Dude had the nerve to compare it to that Tupac and Biggie song. Wtf? In no way, not even CLOSE, is 50 similar to Tupac or Biggie. Fuck that.

Kanye does have his dull moments, cause honestly when they both first came out, I didnt see anything special about neither. But I did acknowledge the fact that Kanye had more “Real talk” than 50 ever could. Especially after 50’s first album. And I’d rather listen to something that’s real over bullshit. Kanye has a soul and he loves music. He makes music b/c its in him and he wants to share it with us. He’s not using it as a way to get rich.

For about 95% of the rappers out there: Take away all those common topics of hoes, cars, gangsta life, money, and bling (pretty much any bullshit) that those rappers speak about and you know what you’ll have on your hands? A rapper (a joke really) that aint got nothin to rap about.

Real Talk.

All i know is come 9/11, I’m not buying anyone’s CD. They’re rich enough. They can do without me. Only artists who’ve CDs I’ve bought are Common’s and Matisyahu’s

@ TGS

No, you missed MY point. And YOU read well you’d know I don’t care to suck as well. And I read your statement right - it was quite simple. Your statement:

lol @ some of you coming in here saying so what! Damn..If you don’t like the topic, skip it, and keep on moving as I do. You didn’t have to bring your crazy asses in here to even read it.

I didn’t agree, commented on it, and that’s that. These items are put up for us to debate on, so it seemed like you was the one that didn’t “get it”.

that is IF you read it well.

2007 Version of the CHIPMUNKS
Curtis= Alvin
Kanye= Theodore
Who’s vying for Simon’s spot??
Get those nuts out your jaws boys!!!

50 looks like a damn beaver

To: THIS IS CRAZY

Who becomes the next president affects Black lives? Residents have been moving in and out of the WHITE house for more than a century and the state of Black amerikkka has remained the same since emancipation or gotten WORSE. Vote? You Negroes kill me. That is actually the test. Whoever is still talking about VOTING I know is a bafoon who has completely missed the boat. Brother work on opening up your THIRD EYE. The only people who vote in this country are foreigners and poor people. Black voters pick a category. Voter turnout is consistently EXTREMELY low because white people do not vote. (With the exception of the dirt poor ones who don’t know any better.) They don’t vote because they know that THEIR INTEREST is the agenda 100% of the time. Obama could be the next president and white people will still own (lock, stock and barrel) 85% + of the world’s resources for the benefit of WHITE people, then send Black and Brown people to the front lines to protect that WHITE interest and benefit.

Voting is simply a symbolic gesture. Intelligent people know that. And please do not get anything confused. I am a lawyer with an undergraduate degree in political science.

@ 89 - so I guess we should just stop thinking, huh? lol.
Here’s more food for thought. It’s a lack of thinking that gets people, namely young Black people that act like Sheep, in trouble.

Also…

The picture is very interesting. Two down-low brothers getting ready to kiss and we think its really about beef. Its about beef all right.

If I decide not support either of these arrogant mofos, I’m not giving kenny chesney or whatver nothing to brag about either. Yeah he bragging bout he gone outsell both Kanye and 50 and that just might well be true, but I won’t included in helping his arrogance either. Anyway Ye actually look cool on the cover and 50 look ugly as hell.

I think the BEAR is Gonna Do Betta than The GORILLA

why is this such a big deal..i mean who cares who sell the most that day just give me some good music to listen to?? both of them are good to me..but i’m loving kanye more

To Anitra:

Please don’t disclose what law school you attended or where you obtained your undergrad degree in political science. It would be an embarrassment. I’m surprised any educated person would have that opinion.

Are you working at a reputable firm? Did you pass the bar?

Saying you’re a lawyer doesn’t validate you nowadays. I don’t know ANY attorneys that would take such an uneducated general stance on a topic.

oh yea um,
let me get 3, 4 of them KWheezies!!!
LOL. Just playin. But 4 real, if and when Fiddy looses, it’s because of his own big mouth. He knows how America loves the underdog. Makes me think he (50) just wanted a graceful exit.

Now let me find out K-Wheezy and 50 in the bathroom splitting the profits it’s gonna be a problem!!

kind

PLEASE NOOOOOO MORE CLOSE-UPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@13 hahahah! How creative! You must of been on something when you wrote that! LOL!

this lil beef is a little lame…but i have to say i go wit kanye all the way…i mean its much better than anything 50 has ever made to me…and damn 50 is sooooo fuckin ugly !!!! he looks like a beaver and damn he is so fuckn ugly !! DAMNNN SHIT!!! lmao…gawd he is one ugly piece of shit…both of their lips are chapped as hell…they need some lip chap asap!! hahahahah but yeah..kanye is better..

Healthy competition my ass! I got everybody on my contact list, my email list, all that going out to get Kanye’s album cuz I want 50 to retire like he originally promised.

Honestly, there has to be more behind 50’s cockiness. He has enough money to buy a million copies of his own CD just to say Kanye didn’t sell him out. Kanye can be a little corny sometimes but he is LIGHT YEARS more profound than 50.

Kanye all day!!!

Every time I hear a shameless plus “NEW ALBUM DROPPING SEPTEMBER 11TH, GO COP THAT!” I can’t help but cringe. September 11th. They don’t know how disrespectful that is? Most people will be acknowledging the anniversary of the 2001 tragedy, not buying new CDs. At the end of the day, 50

Oh an DITTO and co-sign all damn day on what #13 said!!
MY SENTIMENTS EXACTLY!!!!

These brothers working the hell out of this marketing…
It’s a good business look - whatever happens, they will both “win”.

I’M loving your TACT #104! That was really classy and EDUCATED way to stick it to Anitra. You get 250 cool pts for that one. HONEST!!!

I feel you #110….
I think 9/11 should be another memorial day holiday. Not cuz I wanna be off work, but it’s hard to focus knowing its September 11th. I thought that was why Keyshia Cole pushed her album release back ti Sept 18th until I heard about Kanye & 50.

Go KanYe!. Ney to 50 Cents face ewww, Damn Ciara!

Did any of you guys kno a country singer is releasing an album on 9/11 i dunno his name but he could probably beat them both

who knows?

Music now is like wrestling…….It’s all hype and gimmicks, what happen to just talent.??????

wdf are they competin for? Shh make bread & shut da F* up…thats what the world wanna see…two black men goin at each other over dumb shh…they both look stupid..and any smart person know theyre “SO CALLED BEEF IS FAKE.” R.I.P……………………………………………………………………………. please.

They both looks silly 2 me. But this is the most ridiculous mess I’ve eva seen N my life. 2 very successful artists’ R so-called fueding 4 the top spot. Y?

[...] - Kanye West and 50 Cent appear together on the cover of Rolling Stone, just inches away from each other. The article should be called “He Dissed Me, But It Felt Like a Kiss.” [CONCRETELOOP] [...]

Am i the only one who thinks that the cover looks awkward with them facing, closely like that? oh well, it looks ok anyway

IM KINDA TIRED OF 50 SO.. ITS ALL ABOUT KANYE RIGHT NOW!!

KANYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They look like they are about to do that Baby and Lil Wayne thang…….XOXO

I think that they should stop competing themselves too some of the bigger legends ,because neither has been in the game long enough to even try to GO there!
We all know that this hype about the release of their albums and this big competition is to garner big sales for both of their albums. They should also know that anyone who drops an album around the same time as theirs is considered competition. (Oh wait I get it they only consider oneanother to be competition )lolHe its the nature of the business so why are they acting liek they are telling us somethign we dont know.

just 2 monkeys from 2 different regions. thats all.

I love it!! If this was a stategy, they certainly sucked me in. Big ups to the powers that thought of this idea. BTW #74 #71 that is what people are paid for to generate buzz about their artist.

And I’m going to get Kanye’s Album!

50 lookin cute in dat pic

if 50 would RELAX his damn face then maybe he wont go around looking like a gorilla all the time

OMG!!!! That’s all yall believe in? ”publicity stunt????” wow!!!!

It does not really matter to me, with all this arguing of whose better and whose worser,uglyer,cuter….I just know that i like 50 cent every single that he came out with…As far as kanye, i don’t really know….But i do like some of his old songs but not the one’s thats out now….Do me a favor, go to 50 cent myspace and look at how many fan friend’s he got…

http://www.myspace.com/50cent

Then look at how many kanye west fans friends he got on myspace

http://www.myspace.com/kanyewest

Now who you think is gonna be the most sale’s?

if 50 would RELAX his face then maybe he wouldnt go around lookin like a gorilla all the damn time

BOTH OF THEIR LIPS LOOK DRY AND WHITE.

I’M A BIGGER FAN OF 50′S MUSIC, KANYE NOT IMPRSSED WITH ANYTHING RELEASED FROM GRADUATION, BUT I’M NOT BUYING NEITHER ALBUM, DON’T BUY RAP CD’S

Im feeling that comment # 71…true…plus———–
I (hope) that this doesnt sprial out of control and turn into another Biggie/Tupac beef. …supposedly everything starts out as competition, clever banter, jokes, jab, jab, stick, stab..until things are out of control. The media will take something “friendly” between blacks and “incenuate” all types of negativity to continue the hype & drama…always on the look out for the next cash cow.

Their no doubt about it….Kanye West is much much better than 50 cent kanye is a genius hes the best thing after tupac…Kanye and snoop are the best rappers out their

I’m looking forward to Kanye. I alreayd pre-oreded it, so I don’t even wanna spoil it by listening to the leaked version. I think he is one of the best rappers in the game right now. He’s soo relatable and his production and song concepts are crazy. And more then anything he truely love what he’s doing and is always creative!

A Gorilla Vs. a Teddy Bear!!!
Curtis Sept 11th

so 50 has a square head and kanye has a pentagonal one. interesting.

poor 50….looking scary as hell like he wants to kill kanye…and kanye looks all calm….like “i got this”

When will poor people stop getting punked out of their lunch money?
And by poor people, I mean everyone who didn’t bring in an extra 400 million this year…
Oprah Winfrey does not care about Black people…

…I’m waiting.
If 50 had been shot at least eight more times, this wouldn’t even be an issue and Kanye would be throwing the biggest hissy known to mankind

After Biggie and Tupac died (RIP), so did a part of rap as we know it. 50 and Kanye doing a stunt- they need to sit down, sip on some “Vitamin water” and finish getting their “education”- learn from the real rap masters like Biggie and Tupac. I know, I know, my post is corny just like some of 50’s and Kanye’s joints.

50 my baby is gonna win he is the shyt! kanye is a watered down version of commen and jayz mixed together he should go back to bein a producer full time and leave the hip hop game to someone that knows what to do!

Just giving my 2 cents about their albums:

Kanye–Very good album, but not a classic like some critics have made out. We know he’s original, witty and intelligent, but I feel he hasn’t taken it in a new direction. Best track: Homecoming.

50–Better than The Massacre, not as good as Get Rich…! Despite his many critics, I think he’ll shock a lot of people with how good this album is. He made the right move not to release it earlier, since he wasn’t happy with they way it sounded originally. Don’t think it was the wisest thing to say he’ll quit if Kanye outsells him. Best track–I Get Money.

They’re both strong albums.

I don’t buy albums…unless its from artists like nelly furtado or jill scott. I just “borrow” rap music from bearshare (its not good enough to buy a cd). Now, after Kanye’s cd has been out for a month or two I MAY buy it off of amazon for like $2 or $3 bucks!

They have really bold facial features. I think Kanye has this one. 50 has great skin, or is that makeup

i’m not a kayne or 50 fan but i heard kayne album already and its the truth

I think that it is very crazy how 2 rappers are in a battle of who will sell the most record it’s just childish to me who ever win ,the other just be a bigger person and go bout thier buziness.

THIS IS CRAZY:

“Uneducated general stance”?

You should know the value I put on thorough research. My statement is based on VERIFIABLE facts, not “opinion”. It is not a mystery who votes and who doesn’t. The truth may hurt your feelings, but brother the truth will set your negro mind free. I suggest you take a closer look at American politics before YOU cast such a general, uneducated stance on what Black America should be doing.

You are a pseudo-intellectual still saying things like, “we should vote because our PEOPLE DIED FOR THE RIGHT”. You are still in an old paradigm. Of course our people died for the RIGHT and we should have the RIGHT, HOWEVER, if it doesn’t serve our purposes (which we have finally discovered that it does NOT) we should NOT EXERCISE THAT RIGHT. And please allow me to be very specific. I was referring to the presidential election ONLY not voting on local statutes, etc.

You actually think I would CHOOSE Al Gore or George W. Bush???? Are you MAD? By “mad” I mean INSANE. Speaking of insanity, Einstein said doing something the exact same way and EXPECTING DIFFERENCT RESULTS is INSANITY. For what it is worth, the cracker hit the nail on the head. As I said, GET OUT OF THAT OLD PARADIGM and embrace a deeper understanding of the world around you. What is really going on within our human polity.

Al gore vs. George W. Bush…. Do you actually believe (in this INFORMATION AGE mind you) that there is a difference between these two crackers? They belong to the same sadistic order! And you think your homeboy Clinton, too, doesn’t belong to this order? DO YOUR RESEARCH! In this age harboring nonsense is unacceptable.

THEY are ALL our enemies because their agenda is ANTI-BLACK. I need to stop but since I know you are ignorant I will give you just one example not that I should have to. It was in our interest to vote for Bill Clinton???? The same Bill Clinton who put more than A BILLION dollars into the “WAR ON DRUGS” that has been PROVEN (look it up!) to actually be a war on Black families/the Black community DISGUISED as a war on narcotics. This issue has been thoroughly examined and discussed–PROVEN, yet your scolding your people for not choosing this crackers on election day.

Good freakin grief. WAKE THE HELL UP or SHUT THE HELL UP!

that profile picture look like they bout to kiss! but anyway KANYE HELL YEA KANYE HELL YEA KANYE. 50 cents lyrics are alll borin tired or disgustin.. much luv to 50 for keepin his dream alive and gettin money. (nOT A HAATER!) im sayin he gettin borin. he is alright. but take away the muscles and the beats( which he didnt make) and the track he rappin on and u aint got a rapper, u got washed up dog crap. kanye actually makes u listen to his lyrics. both of them got mad swaggger though

@ #140, No I personally don’t think your post is corny. I think you stated the truth. Rap will never be the same without those two. I have always said there will NEVER be another Tupac. Sad, but true. I don’t think anyone will be able to reach the level he was on. Question: If Biggie and Pac was still here, do you think rap would be the way it is today? I know one thing for a fact. Jay-Z would be irrelevant. LOL @ All Out song:

These rappers like Jay-Z
Who be pumping Kool-Aid through their veins

I’m buyin Kanye, I like the way 50 rhyme but he always gotta make somethin ugly outta every situation.
