fifty’s album was not that great.. i love graduation!

Awww…his ego’s bruised.

Somebody needs a hug.

Aint that a bitch!!!!! I was trying to be first!!!! DAMN!!!!!!

So 50 cent just made Kanye West go platinum for nothing. You know thats why everyone bought the CD anyway, so Fif could go AWAY!

he’s only depressed cause he finally realized he might actually lose his own bet.

FIDDY SUCK IT UP YO! I’M SURE HE KNEW THIS WAS COMING ONE DAY. THE STREETS IS CALLIN U HOMEBOY,…GIVE IT A REST!!!

TEAM KANYE!!!! THE ALBUM IS PHENOMENAL!!!

I love 50 b/c i’m reppin NY, but I have to call it like I see it, when you are too cocky in this industry, it can either make you or break you. But either way, congrats to both artists. B/C at least they’re doing their thing. So thumbs up to them!

He been grinding for the past few years. If his heart ain’t in it sitting himself down somewhere is the best move he can make! If he tired more power to him, he set forever.

we all knew 50 would punk out

shame on me. i downloaded them

fiddy album was hot!!

There will never be another “Get rich or die trying” record…thats was my cd…but as much as I love kanye west…(CHI_TOWN STAND UP) I will always love his first cd more then the others…but Graduation is a very good cd…Curtis….NEXT

Never found him sexy or anythin, but this thug showed a bit of sensitive side–and I’m actually feelin that!! Makes him more attractive now

Gettin tired of touring is all part of the territory. After the promotion of this album done, he should take a break from music, and return when he’s good and ready.

He’s actually a pretty smart dude if you hear him in his interview.

I’M LOVIN FIDDY’S PISSED OFF ATTITUDE TOWARD THE END OF THE INTERVIEW!!!…

REPORTER: “YOU BURNED OUT ALREADY?”…”SO WHAT’S UP NEXT?”

FIDDY: “NO. I’M JUST NOT FEELIN IT. I MEAN IM IN A PLACE WHERE I AM COMFORTABLE…..I’M RICHER…TALK TO YA LATER…*WALKS OFF BEFORE THE CAMERA IS TURNED OFF*

HAHHA ….THAT MOMENT PRICELESS!!!!!!

The publicity stunt worked in their favor!

Ummm…. Something is seriously wrong with 50. He was not himself in that clip. God knows that I LOVE 50 cent, but after seeing that I feel sorry for him. He is hurting inside and as I had said from the 106 & park episode with him and Kanye to his facial expression looks like he felt defeat. See how he abruptly ended the interview with the reporter when has he ever done that? SAD!!

# 2 hit it dead on the head, his ego has been damaged. He don’t feel like doing it anymore cuz Kanye’s estimated to sell more records. Awwww poor boo boo. Well it just goes to show him it’s time to change direction. 50 should take into consideration that while he has a big male fan base the majority of his fans are women now and we get sick of hearing folks dudes be disresepctful on these tracks and we’re still supposed to spend our money on them. The direction of hip hop is changing already, that hip hop is dead issue seemed to strike a bad note with the hip hop industry, 50 should roll with it or get rolled ova.

50 is good. Like he said “I’m rich already”

Wasn’t he the one who challenge Kanye to this crap? 50 really sounds hurt…its almost like he was saying “GAME OVER”.

50 just needs to humble himself a bit…but damn so does Kanye (but at least the album was good). I think 50 needs to realize that you can’t just keep putting out bullshyt music…alot has changed since he released “Get Rich or Die Tryin”.

The reason why his 2nd album sold so well was b.cuz people were anticipating another hot release. After an artist sells soooo well on one album, 9 times outta 10 people are going to pick-up their next release. DUH 50…this was the album where you actually had to put in work b.cuz that 2nd album wasn’t that great.

Kanye realized that…and hopefully TI learns from 50’s mistake or he will be next.

Mad because he’s behing Kanye.

What are we talking about here? 50 Cent’s album was hot especially that track with Akon, Kanye West album was so-so, sometimes his lyrics are a little immature and far fetched but over all they both were decent albums considering the horrible state that hip-hop is in now. I respect them both because they say what they want and still apeal to the audience, while the rest of the industry is on the south’s d**k makining one hit wonders just to sell a record, Hip hop is suppose to be are universal language to influence, teach and give back to our culture but instead we rather “lean and rock” What have we become, kids look up to these artists and go out and sell drugs and kill one another just so they can live up to these fake fasades and false images we potray. So its not about 50 and Kanye it’s about hiphop as a hole.
HIPHOP IS DEAD

I am not a fan of 50 cent’s music although his first cd was very good but I actually can understand how the business of music has wore heavily on him so it is no surprise that after only three cd’s he feels somewhat burnt out. I think that he has a lot of negative energy around him and it is not necessarily the people around him but the negativity he spews out so frequently. I think that the industry can not stand him because of his success and in your face attitude and they are now collectively teaming up against him and it is just to much for him to handle. Despite what people believe at the end of the day he is a human and not a robot so he is not exempt from real feelings.

Aww poor Fifty!, I hope he cheers up!, but in related news that Kanye West album is Fiya!!

Also Kanye works on everyone of his albums like its his first record…he really does. If artists really want people to support their record, they have to really give a damn about it themselves.

You just can’t tell people its hot…you worked hard on it…and have a hit single anymore. Also, bullshyt beefs ain’t going to get the job done either…when Kanye dropped “Can’t Tell Me Nothing” and “Stronger” I knew it was a wrap.

Oh so Gangstalicious is upset? Tired? Sorry..people get tired of hearing about guns and drugs son..you’ve been a fake from day one..finally someone figured out that feeding into your bullishh is what you want. See had Ja rule done the same thing kanye did we wouldn’t know or care who 50cent (boondocks episode “gangstalicious”) is today.

SIT DOWN 50.

Awww boo hoo poor baby. Who cares!

#22…Alot of the people they actually “purchase” cds can relate to Kanye more. And the people that purchase the albums are working-class and middle-class individuals (and the white kids ahem “Stronger” anyone lol). I know damn well everyone in my office was and still is banging “Can’t Tell Me Nothing” before “I Get Money”…Kanye’s songs are just more realistic…

As a matter of fact damn near everyone in my Division is banging Kanye’s joint…and there is “at least” 500 people on this floor alone. I mean ALL ethnicities are in here talking about Kanye vs. 50 and ALL ages…as I was typing this I actually had someone walk in my cubicle and ask me what pops up on the computer when I put in my Kanye West cd.

So what does that tell you?

ROFL!!!!! Someone ego is bruised!!!! LOL TELL EM WHY YOU MAD SON!!!!!!!

I knew peeps was getting tired of his gimmick ASS!!

Can I hang the “GAME OVER” sign around his neck now????

He started this whole competition crap now that’s he’s losing he’s tired. Whatever!

LMFAO @ #26 “Gangstalicious” damn you just made me miss watching “The Boondocks”!!!

Opps…I meant alot of people that actually purchase the albums! My mistake! Sorry…

I like fiddy when he first came out,but he ended up talking about the same things on all his records. Kanye brings something new and has since his first cd

50 Cent doesn’t even have half of the amount of humiliation Ja Rule had years ago because of him, and he’s that hurt? That’s not “gangsta”.

His ego is not bruised. He’s already second behind Jay-Z as the richest man in hip hop. That’s not a bad place to be. No one’s ever gonna come and sell 12 million on their first album and almost 9 on their second. It’s just not gonna happen anymore. Let Kanye outsell him this time. Big deal. He’s still not competition and he will never be because his first album didn’t come close to 50’s. 50’s already stamped his name as a legend in hip hop. He’s straight for the rest of his life and his son’s life. Interscope made a huge mistake in pissing him off and leaking “Follow My Lead”. They’re gonna regret it.

Please let mr west sale more, If 50 is so egar for compition why is he giving up, it would be a different story if he was in the lead with album sales

CHI-TOWN STAND UP KANYE ALBUM IS HOT!!!!!!!

Let’s not forget that 50’s probably the smartest man in hip hop. The only people he’s behind is Em, Dre, and Jay. Kanye is no where near that level.

Awww 50…don’t act all butt hurt. I still love you…but I love Kan Kan Ye Ye more!

Def Jam probably purchased 200,000 of Kanye’s cds lol.

Have any of you even heard Kanye’s cd? It is whack i wish he would just come out of the closet already PIMP C said it best KANYE WEST, NEYO ALL OF THEM ARE DICK IN THA BOOTY ASS NIGGAZ. 50’s CD is foreallla straight FIRE!

Yes Kanye’s album is FIYAH! Love it.. He has more airplay then 50 right now too.. He DEF relates to more people..when I heard “Can’t Tell Me Nothing”.. I was like UGH, this is my personal anthem right now.. Versus 50.. SORRY, trying to go more commercial isn’t working, I mean the JT/Robin Thicke collabo’s..not feeling it at all. He tried to start a beef w/ Kanye but Kanye straight up said “I don’t do that!”.. So instead he tried to flip it to make it a competition..and he’s losing.. BIG TIME! Been over 50 w/ the robotic arms..those steroids got him all moody and ish..! Kanye all day!

i don’t care what anyone says, for some reason i just can’t hate 50cent.
he reminds me of someone, too. who i care about. so i care about 50cent.
i hope that his album does well … and i hope kanye’s album does good, too.
i like them both and i just wish them the best.
lol …

And def jam did purchase around 200.000 copies of kanyes cd the same way they did with Jay’z cd thats why hova’s cd sales were strong the first week and then fell off. think about it 50 has 400million dollars more then Jay Z and kanye. if he didn’t want to loose he would just buy 200million of his own cd and give em away or somethen if he really gave a fuck

Why must you people hate on 50 so much? I’m a 50/kanye fan i dont see where all the hate is coming from. He isnt a wack artist, back when “get rich or die tryin” was out i’m sure 99.9% positive all ya’ll were jamming to it. And i’m sure you guys saw the movie.

So what he doesnt want to make anymore music, the thing is he doesnt have to make any more music, he has sooo much damn money.

50 is a damn genuis, ya’ll dont get it, ya’ll really dont.

50 is the man!! I don’t care what no one says.

This man took this industry by storm taking over just about everything you can think of and now that he has his money he wants to go and chill..he doesn’t feel like working anymore..and you know what I feel him 100%

but it is lonely at the top huh 50??

I applaud you none the less rock on brother!

kanye is gay, him and his boyfriend are prolly celebrating a false first 2 days in cd sales we still have all weekend. and in these time niggaz is broke these days none of the black people on this site matter its what white america likes so were all now dumber by even writing about this because the urban population doesn’t matter.

i have heard both albums and i personally love kanyes stay playing on my mp3

The numbers I’ve been reading had Kanye beating 50 by more than 100k not just a few thousand units.

Anyway, 50 is going to spend half his vitamin water check trying to catch up to Kanye. The sales predictions are still low by noth artists standards so I don’t think 50s “media” beef actually did anything. Kanye’s last CD sold 800+ in the first week and 50 sold about a million or so of his last CD.

50 needs to learn how to keep his mouth closed. Don’t get me wrong because Kanye’s whining butt does too but 50 is embarrassing sometimes (remember the Tony Montana comment during the immigration drama. Kick knowledge or sit your black azz down.

and quite honestly Kanyes fake blow up on MTV was a publicity stunt. you gonna blow up then the next day be on bet talkin about MTV has been so good to me. I mean c’mon feel good music gets old if you want that gangsta straight hood. old school NYC shit copp 50’s cd. if you want that white suburban feel good metrosexual shit copp kanyes shit

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Ok now i want you to print this out, mail it and pray it reaches him before it retires. Nobody’s crying but 50, so he needs to hear your words of encouragement more than anyone on this board, lol.

And to think he started all the bullshit, now he’s all sad and gloom.

Where’s Mike Vick? Somebody kill this dog already….

kanye is not hip hop he’s gay bop

Young D, where in the hell did that come from?

@39 his ego being bruised has nothing to do with his past album sells..he made a big fuss about how he was gonna kill kanye in sells..and he got shitted on..i hope he keeps his word and ever make another album..give kanye credit his album was fiyah..50 was sub par at best….if def jam bought 200,000 then g-unit bought just as much…

only suburban white kids and black folks that forgot where they came from like kanye real talk. how you gonna like that disco dressin ass nigga man. don’t nonody in the music biz like him i cannot honestly say i know anyone that will buy his cd nobody gives a fuck about that gay dick in the booty azz lipgloss wearin nigga man

Didn’t bother to watch the video, but I do hope he doesn’t make another record in a long time or ever because I can’t stand him. I don’t know why people actually think he has skills. His flow is wack and he’s so commercial. Even if his lyrics were hot, he still sounds stupid on the tracks.

For Kanye, the only reason why his album sales are going to be high is because of this damn hype. Him and Fiddy knew exactly what they were doing. If you like Kanye and bought the album, that’s your taste and fine, but you people who feed into that hype are really stupid. Kanye and 50 were doing very bad with their first singles and were fading away, but all of a sudden when they have this publicity beef, they are back in the music spotlight. WTF???

Young D, are you related to 50 Cent or something? You taking this too personal.

kanye is like hmmm im going to wear a pink sweater, white pants and some pink timbo’s with a pink jansport backpack. fuck dat nigga

Young D, bow your head, let’s pray! Dear Lord forgive the Concreteloopers for crushings Young D’s cousins feelings. Amen

@54 thank you he is just talking random bullshit

I THINK WHAT 50 SAYS MAKES SENSE. JAYZ SHOULD LISTEN TO HIM, YOU CAN’T STAY ON TOP FOREVER, AND WHEN IT GETS TO THE POINT WHERE YOU HAVE TO START PULLING BEYONCE TYPE MARKETING PLOYS, THEN IT’S TIME TO RETIRE FROM THE GAME. IF YOU CAN’T SELL A CD BASED ALONE ON THE MUSIC, WITHOUT ADDING 50 MILLION PERKS, LIKE A VIDEO FOR EVERY SONG, AND LIFE SIZE POSTERS OF YOU, STAYING ON THE SCENE NIGHT AND DAY, STARTING RUMORS TO KEEP YOUR NAME OUT THERE, DATING A WELL KNOWN IN THE INDUSTRY, THEN IT’S JUST NOT WORTH IT IN THE END. YOU’LL END UP IN A SPACE WHERE YOU’LL BE WONDERING “WHO YOU ARE.” YOU’LL BE WHAT SOCIETY MAKES UF YOU. AFTER THIS WHOLE PUBLICITY STUNT, IT SEEMS TO HAVE TAKEN ALOT OUT OF HIM, AND HE LOOKS DEFEATED AND USED.

I BELIEVE 50, AND I THINK HE’S TIRED OF THE GAME. I’M SURE THE PUBLIC’S RESPONSE TO THE SELLING OF HIS CD HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT, BUT I CAN APPRECIATE AND RESPECT THE FACT THAT HE’S LETTING THESE SALES NUMBERS PREDICT WHETHER OR NOT HE’S STILL IN DEMAND. IF THE NUMBERS SAY NO, THEN IT’S PEACE OUT FOR HIM.

I CAN RESPECT THAT ABOUT HIM. ADMITTING YOU NO LONGER HAVE A SPACE IN A PLACE WHERE YOU STRUGGLED SO HARD AND LONG TO GET TO, AND ADMITTING YOUR DAY IS OVER IS HARD….BIG UPS TO 50.

These are just projections don’t say anything until all sales are final forget the first week talk to me when kanye is stuck on single platnium and 50 is diamond

i just find it crazy how black folks come to this site to down talk other black folks that are doing better then them. Kanye does not give a fuck about black people he’s worse then bush he doesn’t deal with any black people other then a few artists. he has no black staff nothing.

WHATEVA, 50.

Aww poor baby. I dont feel sorry for him. Didnt he ruin ja rules career? Maybe karma is comin back to get him. I dont care how rich 50 is. Nothing in this world is promised. It could all go tomorrow. Kanyes cd sounds like the better choice.

thank you young d for showing us how ignorant one person can be

take a bow and turn off your comp now

THAT NIGGA THINK HE SO FUCKING SLICK..HE GET COOL POINTS FOR THAT THO, HOW IRONIC U CLAIM U AINT FEELING SHIT, JUS WHEN U SEE SHIT NOT NECCESSARILY GOIN IN YOUR FAVOR.THAT SHIT IS WACK 50..U SLICK MOFO…SO JUST IN CASE KANYE OUT SELLS YOU AND U HAVE TO NOT MAKE MUSIC BASED ON YOUR BET, U GOT THESE BULLSHIT STATEMENT TO FALL BACK ON SAYING YOU WASNT FEELING THE BUSINESS ANYWAY..SMH…YEA HE FEELS DEFEATED, HE’S HURT, HE’S MADDDDDDD, POOR MONKEY, WANT A BANANA??..LMAO..and i fucks with ur music 50, YOU JUST NOT BEING A REAL DUDE NOW.. SUCK IT UP, BUT BACK TO THE POINT AT HAND, HE THINK HE SLICK..ITS A COP OUT, HOW he NOT HAPPY WITH THE MARKETING OR WATEVER WITH THE ALBUM ALL OF A SUDDEN, HUH?..U WERE SOOOO CONFIDENT, NOW YOU NOT SELLING LIKE U THOUGHT YOU WOULD BE, so you say u unhappy abt the project..BULLSHIT NUCCA…its obvious he’s feeling defeated, b/c u gotta understand he wasnt talking nothing like this some days ago, like he was beyond cocky, like i have no words to describe his level of confidence,to him ye beating him was not even an option, but now when u see ppl is riding with ye, u create other hype, to calm down the hype you had. smmfh..deuces

honestly fucka concreteloop.com this shit is 99.9% made the fuck up bullshit stories they steal from other sites. think about it if any gossip site was worth a fuck or myra panche knew anything wouldn’t they have had a blind item about a tall ass black as fuck basketball player divorcing his cheating wife? (shaq) they didn’t have it because they write bullshit. concreteloop.com is what the fuck is wrong with america now. gossiping and lying about peopel whom should be role models. i’ll say it loud i’m brown and i’m proud and FUCK CONRETELOOP.COM this website is based on stories from other sites they steal all there stories and photos so fuck concreteloop and everyone on this site its all lies.

@63 please he is just saying this bullshit because he lost ..would he be saying this same tune if he beat kanye i think not

@64 and what the hell have you been doing with your post about kanye dummy

I don’t see how Kanye is winning someone needs to stop buying his stuff he thinks he’s GOD and he thinks he’s better than every other performer out and he’s not! I can’t believe how he acted like a little kid, because poor depressed Britney got the stage over him at least be man enough to let a young depressed girl just slid. What an ass! Then to sit there and flipout on the black eyed peas and all the other artists who made the stage which included Chris Brown, was crazy! 50 might be a little arrogant in a joking manner, but Kanye is dead serioous what a nut, yall need to check out how he flipped! He thinks he’s GOD and he by far wasn’t the only shining star at the VMAs that night by far and it wasn’t a black or white issue that man just thinks he’s GOD!!!! What a nut!!! People are hating 50 for joking about the stuff, but you don’t see 50 going off like that over little girls!!! Kanye is insane! If he would have just stop flipping out the syco might have realized that the show was perfect the way it was and it made his performance all a more interesting, but he was to busy flipping! Someone needs to shut the cry baby up and tell him to man up for once in his life! He’s like a grown ass kid! Picking on little girls, chris brown, and all the other pop artists who made center stage!!! Please!!!!

Did ya’ll see on 106 and Park when Terrance asked him how/where he was with this album? His answer was nothing close to what Terrance asked him, but he did say that he’ll probably release another album this year. Now He’s saying he’s tired.. I think his attuide has changed now that he’s losing the battle.

Team Kanye:)

@70 GEE

I DON’T KNOW IF HE WOULD BE SINGING THE SAME TUNE IF HE WERE IN THE LEAD. BUT YOU HAVE TO GIVE CREDIT WHERE AND WHEN IT’S DUE. TO ADMIT HE’S GOING TO SIT HIS ASS DOWN BASED ON THESE RECORD SALES AND NOT FEELING RAPPING ANYMORE IS HUGE, AT LEAST IN MY BOOK. PLUS HE GOT MONEY HAND OVER FIST, PLEASE, I WOULDN’T BE FIGHTING OVER THIS SHIT ANYMORE EITHER. LET THE CHIPS FALL WHERE THEY MAY; PEACE AND I’M OUT, YAW LITTLE NIGGAS FIGHT FOR THE SCRAPS AT THE BOTTOM, HELL, I ALREADY MADE IT SEEMS TO BE 50′S ATTITUDE NOW. HE PROBABLY FEELS THIS WHOLE MARKETING SCHEME WASN’T EVEN WORTH IT.

BUT ON A HIGHER NOTE: THAT KANYE JOINT IS OFF THE FREAKIN CHAIN FOR REAL. MY FAV. TRACKS ARE #2, #4, #5, AND #13.

I don’t see how Kanye is winning someone needs to stop buying his stuff he thinks he’s GOD and he thinks he’s better than every other performer out and he’s not!

Damn 50 what happen to all that I run New York shit, now this nigga’s ready to retire because he probably just got a look at the sound scan number. How about instead of blaming the label you blame your self for putting out those lack luster singles.

Fiddy is mad that he put his foot in his mouth. he was all amped up about going head to head with Ye…now he’s singing a different tune. Can’t wait for next week to get the official sound scan results.

It hurts when you get knocked off your high horse.
