VIDEO: 50 CENT IS TIRED OF TOURING + ALBUM RACE NEWS
Thursday, September 13, 2007
In the clip above, 50 Cent expressed unhappiness with touring and says he may never make another record in a interview conducted on Tuesday night. In the full clip (located here), he explains how his latest album differs from his previous ones and gives advice to his fans about pursuing their goals.
In related news, early reports have Kanye West beating 50 in their much-hyped battle of album sales: West’s “Graduation” is on pace to sell about 575,000 to 700,000 its first week out, while 50 Cent’s “Curtis” is on track to do 550,000, according to Billboard magazine. The official word won’t come until next week though, so you never know.

The fact of the matter is Kanye is more creative and thats going to make for a better album always.
50 doesnt work as hard as kanye does. To me 50 is just putting out records because he can. I appreciate the effort in this album from kanye. 50 did ok he has some hits where the writing is brilliant but Im gonna have to say kanye’s cd has more, and 50 cent see’s it.
You dont have to be a gangsta to sell hip hop records. Kanye is repping for the mama’s boys.

If you had money like 50, you wouldn’t care about making “good music” either. Kanye said himself that he wishes he had money life Fif. Yall have failed to mention songs like “Many Men”. Songs like that are memorable songs. Anyway, 50 will be at the top of hip hop along with Eminem until someone comes and sells 12 mill…which is never gonna happen.

I agree with # 23
The industry is using 50 to cake on other artists to sell records…50 was the first to be released on the 11th, then everyone jumped on and made it a marketing opportunity for other people to sell records..Everyone knows 50 sells record, so the motive was to get Kanye fans stirred up to sell over him…sh*t, even B5 jumped in on the action….At the end of the day, 50 is RICH YA Dig!! So he has to option to take a break…and let these industry cats ease off and relax a little…he’ll come back in 3 years a set the industry in a frendzy all over again!!!!

SIT DOWN KANYE LOVERS!…yall only love Kanye because yall love to hate 50. For that matter, at the end of the day muthaf%*kas is still bouncing to every song 50 has released, from In da club to Amusement Park..just because you may like one song better than the other doesn’t mean it ain’t good!!!….Let’s all just face it, stop trying to be different by saying you really don’t like 50, at the expense of taking away a brothas shine!…Anybody focused on they focus deserves their shine!! and puhhhlease get over trying to make Kanye more of a rapper than he is…dude is a straight entertainer..that’s what he does, entertains us!!! EASY

IF 50 CENT CAN SELL 310,00 IN THE FIRST DAY OF SELLS, HOW IS THERE NO PLACE FOR HIM ANYMORE. PEOPLE CAN’T SELL 300,000 IN A WEEK LET ALONE ONE DAY. SO YOU MEAN THAT MIMS, RICH BOY, DJ UNK AND YOUNG BERG HAVE MORE OF A PLACE IN HIP HOP THAN 50. BULLSHIT. TI DIDN’T EVEN SELL 500,000 THE FIRST WEEK AND HE’S JUST GONE PLATINUM. 50′S RICHER THAN TI AND HAS A MORE INTERNATIONAL BASE THAN TI. 50 MAKES MORE OMNEY OUTSIDE THE US THAN IN THE US. IF 50 WASN’T AN AMERICAN ICON NO MORE. HE COULD MOVE OUT TO PARIS OR SOMETHING AND STILL BE A ICON. IF 50 CENT DOES SELL 500,000 PLUS THE FIRST WEEK THAT MEANS THAT PEOPLE STILLDIG HIM. PLUS, THIS IS ONLY FIRST WEEK SALES. PEOPLE LIKE 50 CENT CAN’T LOOK AT FIRST WEEKS SALES AS FAILURES BECUASE HE CONSISTANTLY SELLS RECORDS WORLD WIDE. PEOPLE STILL WANNA BY HIS FIRST TWO ALBUMS TODAY. G UINT!

Love Curtis!!!!!! Such a real man. I would love to meet 50.
I love a man with street knowledge and conducting himself in a business maner.
50 built an empire! G Unit!!!!!!!!!!!! I keep saying this and I’ll say it again. He such a great businessman. Wow, who would ever guess that investing in a viotile market these days would make him even richer….Love him or hate him….He’s rich BIOTCH!!!
Kanye: I dont like men rapping about another man admiring, a “Big brother”. That sounds very strange to me. Secondly, the Louis Vuitton thing? Handbags? Duffles?
Sounds like girl talk to me.

For all those that say Kanye is gay…why does he have to be gay? Because he dresses flashy and doesn’t talk about killing people. If anything 50 is the idiot who went for the okie doke. Came out with whack gangsta rap, perpetuating stereotypes of black men and people ate it up. You have someone who comes out speaks about college and issues within the black community and he is called a fag. That is why I like Kanye because he even says on his album “Everything I’m not made me everything I am.” Every black person is not living in the hood slanging acting ignorant.

@ 161: I feel a sex appeal from 50, not from Kanye. I understand 50 does say some derogatory things. By all means I am no supporter of those lyrics. It is strictly sex appeal. I am attractive to a him and the bad boy image. However, I am also attractive to a bussiness man that takes risk too (Vitamin Water).
Kanye lyrics are mostly positive and I can appreciate that too. Both have good music. Although I do not like Kanye image of preppiness. It is not sexy to me neither is talking about Louis Vuitton all the time. I talk about my Louis to my girlfriends all the time. Big Brother IS positive. I just do not see Kanye appealing to me. Kanye and 50 are equally talented. This is what we need right now a balance. And it works too. So dont be offended. Its a personal preference.

5O Cent has been one of the rappers that has grown very fast in the industry. And has made the PHILOSOPHY of GET RICH OR DIE TRYING a reality. It dosent mean that if his album CURTIS dosnt outrun KANYE WEST, that the G wont be making money. Just that PRIDE and UNDER-RATING Caused his down fall on sales. But I think he is going to lay low and come back with a BANG!!! So u haters, keep hating and you money makers keep counting that dollars! Cuz 50, KANYE is all about the paper. Stay G..ddddd UP Nigar!!!!!! Nigeria is where am hallaing from.
