50 VS Kanye
50 Cent has bet away his rap career saying that he will outsell Kanye West when their albums drop on September 11th.
“They would like to see Kanye West give me a problem because I’ve worked myself into a space where I’ve become the favorite. Everybody roots for the underdog when he goes against the favorite.”
“Put it like this, let’s raise the stakes. 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”
“And I bet this, when Kanye West’s sales come in, he’s gonna have a 70% decrease [the second week] ’cause Def Jam is gonna buy records to keep him closer to 50 Cent. So watch the first week and then watch the second week”
50 may have to eat his own words, because Kanye West’s new album is already outselling in presales!
