first….bitches

50 gettin played by the smarter businessman

Fuck 50 look at what hova did. Yall niggas have to realize Jay-z had done kanye dirty a couple times in his career.From not signinng at first to a couple other situations.Jay-z could’ve annouced his album release date next month and let kanye west keep his steam. Kanye better watch his so called “Big Brother” cause Jay-z just played him if he doesn’t realize it.

^ cosign! this is real talk…

Fif said watch Ye’s drop in 2nd week sales to stop them from noticing his own,I knew Interscope bought most of Curtis.

50 used to go plat in a week,
3 years ago you was the man homey what happened?

ya’ll hatin fo real like 50 is outsellin kanye in the long run kanye doesnt have the stayin power like 50 does worldwide kanye only topped him in the states and uk every other country 50’s on top 2 million records in a week not including these new numbers im tellin you he gon do at least 3.5 million in the states and like 4 milly outside the countries so like 7.5-8 mill worldwide like look at ayo technology its like the biggest record on all the charts in every country peakin the top 5 and its been out for like 5 weeks!!! kanye aint do that yet OBEY KING 50

STOP ALL THE BITCHING .. THEY ARENT BROKE.. WE CHAT BOUT IT . THEY CASH IN ..

homie i know you didn’t say ayo tech is a big song in every country. most people thinks it’s justin’s song anywhere. I think the world his tired of his g stuttering- unit ass.

HOW COULD ANYONE POSSIBLY MOVE UNITS IN MUSIC WHEN HALO 3 DROPPED !!! LOL HAHAHAHA 1 MILLION PEOPLE WAS PLAYIN HALO 3 ON XBOX LIVE ALL DAY WHEN IT CAME OUT. HALO 3 FUCKED UP THEIR NUMBERS AND OF COURSE JAY-Z ANNOUNCING A NEW ALBUM HAS DRAWN ATTENTION AWAY FROM KANYE AND 50.. AND I THINK HALO 3 BROUGHT IN $ 170 MILLION DOLLARS ITS FIRST DAY !!!!!! THATS FUCKIN CRAZY IT SMASHED SPIDERMAN IT HAD 1.7 MILLION PRE-ORDERS AND SOLD 2.5 MILLION COPIES ITS FIRST DAY .. THEY NEED TO BE BEEFIN WITH MICROSOFT HAHAHA..

everyones waiting to here jay-z right now.. kanye numbers were cool .. a report on a music site said”KANYE SOLD A REAL BIG AMOUNT BECAUSE THE ( GAY COMMUNITY ) IS BACKING HIM 200% IT WAS A RECORD BREAKING DAY FOR HOMOSEXUALS PURCHASING MUSIC. FAGGOTS REALLY DISLIKE 50 SO ITS NATURAL THEY WILL NOT SUPPORT HIM. BUT YE .. LOL.. I HAVE NO COMMENT. IT AINT MY BIZZ MAN.. I LIKE BOTH THEIR MUSIC YO. SWIZZ DID WHAT HIS FIRST WEEK?? 45,000 THEY SHOULDNT BE COMPLAINING AT ALL.

Sales take a considerate loss after the second week inculding the beloved jay z and everybody else album. Aint no shame thats just how it is.

#6 how the fuck u think 50 gonna sell 8 million copies

damn #3 crazy niggas was just talkin about how this nigga hov started promotin his album when kanye was tryin to do numbers. u think he shitted on kanye? or was it just a good business move? he wouldnt really be tryin to shit on kanye cuz he’s his boss and he gettin money off graduation, plus he know kanye gonna sell more than he is. plus kanye gonna get money off of jay cd. it seems like a win-win. kanye gonna do 3-4 million copies regardless, and the announcement of this cd might help kanye sales cuz when niggas hear about this they gonna think about kanye, like “damn, i been meanin to go pick that kanye up. u heard that big brother joint?” but you know it could go either way like u said

niggas will fight for 50 cent no matter what.
ok 50 lost the firs week by a good amount. he said he would win.
he also said kanyes album would drop 2nd week, both they shits dropped and 50 still sold more.
the man is defeated, why are niggas constantly makin up excuses for him?
i mean damn, yall dont even kno the nigga.
fuck 50cent and kanye west.
yall niggas trip me out, forreal.

yall niggas need to idolize somebody worth idolizing.
not a fuckin rapper.

* 2nd sentence i meant “kanye still sold more”..
typo

I really don’t know why anyone’s surprised. Like I said, first week sales are contributed by die-hard fans who were going to get the album anyway. Second week sales are the cather-ons who heard from their friends that the album’s banging. Simple.

And when you sell 900,000 of course there will be a huge drop.

All i want to say is the I get money forbe remix was dissapointing…

50 makes better music than both Kanye and Jay. And is a smart business man so expect more from him in the long run. His album Curtis will sell at least 8 million worldwide just watch and wait. While Kanye will sell at least 4 million and Jay-Z new track is hot garbage not to many guys feel Jay anymore, his biggest fan base was chicks. Now this new single isn’t doing it for any girls or clubs so we will just see how many albums he sells…lol

not surprised by this at all. people need to realize that they both arent going anywhere so deal with it and stop arguing about it like children.

^^^^^maybe juicy is trippin today, lol

the thing is Def Jam/Jay-Z planned the whole thing…..
while 50 and Jimmy Iovine were having their problems and shit….

LOL at #5 & Cosign
“Damn homey, 3 yrs ago you was the man homey, fuck happend to you?”

More haters happend

Thing is… People are sick of 50! I’m glad this happened to the GUnit/Interscope camp. 50 is very arrogant and has NO REASON to be. So what people cant seem to see is… 50 was hot because of the CRACKERS (Sorry if I offend anyone) which was some of Em’s fanbase, and he was hot because of the females, and the STREETS. BUT after Jada Nas, Shyne & Joe exposed him…He lost a big portion of his love from the streets…and the white people moved on to the hot artist in the SOUTH. (T.I., Three 6 Mafia, Jeezy, & Wayne)

Trust me, this is very true, I analyzed all of this…And made a PROPHECY about this last year. And to be honest with you…50 sales would be WORSE then what they are right now, if it wasn’t for all this hype with Kanye…So he really would have did like that, 400-600,000 copies his first (2) weeks… Real Talk!

50 Is done…niggas is tired of bullshit! Point Blank and Simple… Curtis MIGHT do 2 Mill…either way, 07 is gonna be all about Def Jam & Rocafella after Jay & Freeways album drops! Real TalK!!

aint nobody go buy hov shit his last album was garbage and this one will be wack also nigga retire already it didnt work for mj coming back to the league and it aint work for hov

you lost now keep your word and retire bitch

lol @ numer 19

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Co-sign!!!!! As much as I hate to admit it, Jay-Z is a crab just like the rest. I am so disappointed in the direction his music has taken and the fact that he is trying AGAIN this year. Ask half the kids on the street in Los Angeles black and otherwise, 18-20 who love hip hop 1 single from the Kingdom Come album and most of them will tell you they didn’t even know Jay-Z came out with an album last year which is SAD AS HELL cuz I remember damn near breaking my NECK to buy The Blueprint ON SEPTEMBER 11, 2001 and I still love that album. I wish he would go back to that format, but even if he did, no one would listen cuz that is what he is trying to do on this next album with the Blue Magic hair grease single and all. I’m sorry, but he fell off since being with Beyonce and I don’t think it’s her fault. I just think he is trying too hard to be something he isn’t.

So with that said…..Damn Jay, in highschool you was the MAN Jay, WTF happened to YOU lol

I never believed he would fall off. I guess we all gave him credit for being super human. NO ONE is immune to falling off.

But 50 cent just keeps getting better with age!!!! Wait until the end of the year when all sales are tallied up!!! I BET’CHU MY MAN 50 comes out on top.

Kanye may be a homo, but he is a beat making monster and I hope he does well in his career and life. KANYE, WATCH YA BACK WHEN YOUR PLAYING HARDBALL!!!!

Geniuses - Hov supported Kanye heavily in promoting his album so that he would come out victorious - from making sure that Kanye was able to bless the stage wit T.I, himself and Puff to coming out for added buzz on 106 & park. He makes money off graduation; Thus not wanting to seem bias he throwed a verse on i get money rmx - knowing that many ppl was anticipating the remix he made sure that 50 was not allowed to drop it until after the 1st week - thus helping kanye - and when 5o did drop it he killed the hype by announcing his next album - American Gangster’ which is a conceptual cd to the movie - basically a soundtrack - do u even realize the amount of money making a solo soundtrack to a soon to be numero uno movie starring denzel is - and knowing hov he also has a deal in place to where he receives a cheque for copies sold.

50 isnt even platinum - his album has been out 2 weeks and has yet to reach the #1 spot - face it - pl are tired of that fake shit, that garbage - bout #1 in Europe - nig are u European?! in the country that matters - kanye shitted all over his ass - 2 weeks and running.

#12 is a crackhead

talkin bout 50 make better music than kanye and Jay

LMAO!

CO SIGN 22 ON THE JAY & KANYE PART!

jay and 50 are competing with each other. jay tried to play 50 when he said im not thinkin bout that i get money video. and i think 50 is cooking up his plan on how he gon approch this. i think we are about to see the real fight for king of new york. jay was the king for about three years from 98 to 2001 when nas came an bust that ass. nas couldnt hold it down that long because he inconsistant so 2002 was his time
in 2003 50 came and shut shit down and he been the king of new york since. thats four years haters just face it be honest with your self. I think 50 wanted to go at jay for awhile u know out of competion but jay always say that he’s not a rapper no more he not competing. i think with 50 losing to kanye jay feel like he can dig at 50 now and its the perfect time to do it since 50 lost. but jay better be careful. when u go at 50 everthing is fair game that nigga don’ give a fuck!!!!!

Tell me what yall think

I’m not suprised by YE’s numbers…The best album will ALWAYS come out on top…Fif is no longer relevant to YE and obviously a lot more people…

…Fif played himself…LMAO (along with everyone else) at him TRYING to claim the King of NY, when he cant even beat HOV’s (THE REAL KING OF NY), little brother…

…Stay in ya lane Fif your OLD news now…While HOV is STILL a legacy…LOL…

26 jay-z can’t beat his lil brother so what are u saying!!!

jay aint never did numbers like kanye or 50!!! How he the king of new york when when 50 been bussing that ass for 4 years!!!! the black album came out the sane day as the g-unit album jay won the first week but his album sold 2 mil
g-unit sold 5 mil not to mention 50 had the hottest album and the highest sellin album that year. in 2004 jay and r-kelly drop that bullshit and 50 drop banks and buck so he was still killin the game jay was gon in 2005 when the 50 broke records with his second album and game’s album . 2006
jay came back but it was not as good as we thought now jay see that 50 down so he gon try to sneek back in and take 50 spot lol sneek he need to just got at him and stop with that sneek dissin shit lol i love jay and i love 50 i just wish they just say fuck it and fight for it.

yall niggas dumb.
dumbest statement of the year goes to whoeva said;
“50 cent makes better music than kanye and jay”

second dumbest comment;
“Ask half the kids on the street in Los Angeles black and otherwise, 18-20 who love hip hop 1 single from the Kingdom Come album and most of them will tell you they didn’t even know Jay-Z came out with an album last year”

be serious. this nigga jays marketing is too fucking crazy.
everybody kno jay droppin an album, even if they dont buy it. jay is well received in every demographic as an artist.
he got the streets forever, just off of reasonable doubt.
he got the non hip hop culture off his later crossover hits.
the nigga got big money off his corporate shit.
his image is clean, one of the best hip hop role models we have out there to show the world that hip hop is not niggas like 50 cent.

if this site has one drawback its the posters.
i dont kno what to chalk it up to, age or ignorance.

all i gotta say.. MORE MONEY MORE PROBLEMS.. n dass when ya hataz come out cuz dey aint got no money.. n sad 2 say dass gonna go on n on n on…

^^^LMAO…You can make up all the excuses and be in denial you want…the fact of the matter is, until someone can come bat to bat with HOV and his PORTFOLIO/ACCOMPLISHMENTS…HE is UNDOUBTEDLY the KING OF NY HANDS DOWN…

…When you can name someone on his level, then holla at me…

…CEO of Def Jam & Rocafella/G.O.A.T./Net Worth of $564 million/hottest chick in the game/40/40 clubs WORLDWIDE/Rocawear/HP, Budweiser, GMC etc.. commercials & endorsements/ Part owner of the NETS/ His OWN COLOR/HUE of BLUE…I can keep going…But NUFF SAID…

kanye went platinum in 2 weeks and 50 wtf??????? SMDH and the winner is KANYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

co-sign #’s 28, 30 i think you couldnt have said that better but remember also 50’s final album is almost complete and he gon drop iy like first quarter 2008 so he gon overlap curtis and i think jay is scared of 50 cause he realize 50 is the king of marketing in this climate of hiphop and all those days when your lyrics 50 made the public realize that doesnt matter in a battle anymore you gotta be able to destroy or ruin they visiblity and crush them spiritually and mentally that means hit em where it hurts they money and jay and 50 are pretty much in the same space financially so it will be a difficult battle but i think the ppl will favour jay-z anyways cause they dont like him so jay might win the battle but he will lose the war cause 50 will isolate his movements with smart tactics like he did with all his opponents in the past(ja, fat joe, shyne, the lox etc= destroyed or ruined careers) true story.

i still didnt cop graduation yet (which im going to cop once i get my check)

yo for number 22.. Def Jam Inc.

its funny u say crackers were mainly listenin to his music.. im pretty ur mother was jockin 50s balls ever since get rich or die tryin and shes black.. so my prophecy beats ur prophecy.. u fuckin fagget

period point blank.. in the long run 50s untouchable u faggets.. all u lil fuckin haters loved 50s shit at one point or another.. thats y stay watchin and listenin to anythin he drops now.. whether its a interview, song, video,etc..

50 need to go back to his grdt sound not these pop songs he makin.

the massacre almost went double platitum in 2 weeks just in the u.s.a!!!!kangay and and the camel aint never done that.

****platinum^^^^^^^^

mi mi u sound dumb as usual what fuckn porfolio u tlkn bout buisnnes or music cuz i can take both of 50 and itll go bat to bat with jay
only fuckn reason kanye sold more than 50 is cuz def jam and 50 hater bought alot of kanyes album not people that wanted to hear it but people that juss wanted to hate on 50 so be fuckn real and when its all said n done and total albums is tallied were world wide counts cuz damn near every country over seas money is worth more then the dollar bill for ya stupid dick heads that dont know shit 50 will win he already move 2.7 first week and should be at 3 mill and change and dont act like the link and shit wasnt up here a couple days ago saying 50 dominated kanye over seas

anyway like i said with all the 50 haters that r out now its easy for any 1 to put a album next to fifs n try to out sell him first week cuz the haters that will love to spite him and see him fail which was 90% of rtny bloggers and 85% of the industry. like i said ill put 50s catalog of bizz and music against hovs anyday 50 accomplished more in a shorter period of time 4 yrs n counting and hes on jayz ass in cash so keep hating this is more than music bitches

business*

LOL SMH

as far as worldwide sales go, whomever is winning that race congrats cuz i kno theyve been #1 in various countries. i dont live there tho, i live here so as far as im concerned ima leave yall with this quote.

“don’t watch the sales, watch the 80% decrease in sales” 50

im not gonna say anything but i told u so and and i told u fifty stans tht interscope was buyin all dem curtis albums.

all i gotta say is yall niggas gay.
on every post i see, bushwick seems to be the gayest nigga.
cause he will verbally assault a mufucker over 50 cent like thats his father or sumthin.
if thats not gay i dont kno what is.

props to bushwick pure atleast somebody on this site no what they talkin bout. i still dont understand why people hate on 50 with all the hits hes had in such a short period of time nobody has ever had that many hits in only 4years.

jj evans aint got nothing on 50

50 #1 world

the monkey aint got nothing on Hova the God

Jay-z #1 worldwide.

yall is overrated jay and that is sad for real 50 is on jay level in every aspect that y jay sent kanye out to try and do his dirty work 50 been itchin to get at jay if jay say somethin else stupid about 50 him and ll will be all on dis nigga if u notice jay and kanye keep throwin out lil disses at 50 but 50 keeps it real and will go at anybody jay dont want it wit 50 cuz he kno 50 has alot of money and power and he has alot of da same marketin schemes to get his shit out like hov i would like to see them battle im goin for 50 cuz he is a real drug dealer not no fake one he been shot and stabbed and in real shit unlike jay fuck def jam nigga…

Best point read was by T. Taverniti (#13)

Find someone worth idolizing if you guys are gonna put this much energy into defending/hating someone!

Truth be told all these fools are sending our folks up sh!t creek for .15% or some minuscule number like that!

Kanye might be the lesser of all evils but that maybe simply because he doesn’t have the power to be as evil yet!

You can’t quantify Integrity in this business anymore. The real folks ain’t gansta enough, and the gangsta’s ain’t real!

The throne for hip hop as a whole and for NY has been vacant since big, and Pac were murdered. And none of these dude’s can touch the 80’s guys lyrically (Kool G, Craig G, Lord Finesse, Kane, Rakim) thats why they gotta use so many references from them nowadays seeing most these kids would think these guys came up with those lines!

jay-z might of fell off alittle but he still 10 times better they 50 or anybody eles in the rap game

It’s this simple. Kanye takes his music seriously and he’s a producer, so he will have a better finished product just from the process of making music (any artist will know what I mean) second, 50 hasn’t changed, we don’t want 3 copies of the SAME album with differnt beats. Third you guys are talking like Kanye didn’t do over 800,000 the first week of Late Registration, people buy Kanyes music because it’s good music. Third “I’m about a dollar, who the F*^k is 50 cent” (any one remember that) Jay handeled that once, I guess he could do it again, but that I don’t really care about that(btw anyone pep Jay saying “I RUN NEW YORK” on 50’s SONG!). And finally the battle was about the AMERICAN MARKET, SEPTEMBER 11th release. Sure 50 beat Ye in some countries over seas, he was also #1 in countries where Kanye hadn’t dropped yet, so it doesn’t really count for this contest does it?

fuck you people who say fuck 50 for one 50 beats kayne is better rap artist cause c-mon kayne is r/b to the max but anyway if 50 doesnt beef with joe/jada/styles/nas/game/buck…or anyoneelse no one listens to them cause all they put out is a diss track back to 50 but anyday of the week someone wants to say 50 aint the smartest rap artist business wise …well you are a dummy 50 has water/shoes/clothes/music/movies/cars/body spray/and the #1 hit hip hop website this is50.com he is #1 in forbes he is making huge moves all day every day and 50 gives to his fans all the time unlike other artist who have other people put donations in their name for favors 50 ha only one cd he had more than 3 features outside his click on he dont need to be like the south rappers westcoast or the khaled rappers he does his own shit and still love him or hate him he is the first thing you think when hip hop comes along they call him a snitch or fake but game is on the videos wanting to quit rp crying and shit or saying he wants top die and lil wayne got caught up in cali by g-units crips loc and glocc and he called the cops jada is on the 50 website sayin he wants to be cool with 50 and joe talks shit behind closed doors but he was on the radio saying he wouldnt fight 50 buck cried to him on the phone ja lost everything jay-z wont attack puff dont wanna say anything and nas dissed once and fell off styles p said he will never beef again with a monster like 50 luda em and nelly all said he was top three all time ne-yo and nelly are talkin joining his label dipset damn near is apart of the unit and cam-ron is hid better than bin laden 50 has done movies with t-howard robert de niro al pacino rob dyrdek jessica beil ray liotta and has donated over 25 million of his own money his mixtapes are free he tours 200 days a year and is a great father and em and dre wont let him go for shit he has ghost written peoples cd been voted of of the most influential males ever sold more records over seas than any other artist and has just sign back with ecko do do another clothing line what has he done really besides made the rap game worth keeping up with????? top that shit

whats one song that kayne has that is out cold rap….jesus walk all falls down flashing lights love lockdown??? kayne is great as a artist no doubt and he sells shit loads but 50 is a hardcore rapper luda is rap t.i. is rap i aint hating really i swear i just dont see him being hip hop or rap i think personally <—-remember its only my thought not yours i think numbers speak jay has been around since 95 and 50 since 2002 luda 2000 em 99 and t.i. 2001 and lil wayne we will say solo since 2002 and fifty is great he has sold alot more than alot of artist just because he tells the truth and doesnt say what he is told he takes heat from everyone i think luda nelly 50 em and jay are all top 5 out right now and t.i. is up there too but his current case is a lil weird how he got out of all that mandatory time but who knows but doesnt anyone think smart really people say wayne is the best but he just now on c3 so more than 1.5 for his first time ever and t.i. in the last 2 1/2 years got up there doesnt longevity count anymore all 50’s solo cd’s have went past 2 mill and same like i said for luda who truly is the best ever EVER!!! every time he has dropped its been #1 no one else can say that sorry for the long comments but alot was needing to be said haha and im sure someone will hate on me but thats what makes this cool everyone who has a valid point call me out but i did on my last comment leave out trick daddy as another person getting close to signing to g-unit but anyway i aint hating on any rap artist who is at least in the top ten im stating true facts i have looked up for real 100%true about weezy and birdman calling the hook on glocc and loc youtube that shit baby is like 42 and just now started gang bangin for the bloods and wayne is always saying blood shit and when glocc and loc and their crip gang members surrounded their suv thet did call the cops and did get punked out and said they werent gang members …maybe thats ok in N.O. but i know where im from dissing your click is like spitting pissing and shitting on your click and thats is way more worse than a rival doing it but maybe thats just where im from but im sure every gang that is true is like that and sorry for being way OFF TRACK OF THE TOPIC but i just fell right into it but im just dont get how ross is a ex-cop and now the baddest gangster wayne calls the cops and is scared to claim his own set cam-ron cant keep his dipset team together nas punked out to jay and now thinks he is tough cause he is with jay (he is good)but not great joe wont claim his own city and aint never made a cd go plastic and he is considered way more street than 50 ….and all the while fifty took nine came from nothing keeps it true has made careers in the likes of game when no one wanted him even dre and buck when cash money let him go and the all backstabb him even nas he was cool with on the 8mile soundtrack he aint scared of shit go and look at the video when someone takes his chain

and # 51 are you serious them dudes started the game ….yeah but artist now would run them out of town and new york since big has seen the likes of jay-z in his prime dmx in his prime and 50 now as far as l.a. i cant say anyone but ice cube he has stayed gangsta to the core as far as music(not movies) lol j/k but he has went gold on everyone of his cd’s old dudes are cool but i think big and pac did die and they were great in their time but no one can say fer sure or not if they still would be…not saying they would but who knows look at everyone else they had the time at top and slowly they sink maybe pop and pac would have too? but umm yeah #51 comment the old guys are the best thing to ever happen to hip hop r/b but if they were raping that way now none of us would buy enough to take their shit to gold they made it big cause they were the shit but that was cause it was the first time we heard music like that personally i think hip hop rap will be a damn near dead duck in ten years cause everyone is worried more about someone else more than themselves look at country rock pop r/b jazz classical no competition is there they just keep queit make money and get respect and the only ONLY ONLY hip hop/rap artist that dont compete is outkast thats it no beef and great tune argue that
