50 Cent Explains Why His Album Got Pushed Back


“Get Up,” didn’t blow(Not in Billboard’s Top 50) so its time to work on something to have that, “I Got Money,” effect. Any artist whose first single doesn’t become a hit is going to have their album pushed back most likely. 50’s tv show will keep him in the public spotlight. I’m sure he has big tracks on the way to get a big buzz, probably a song with Eminem.

    There In No Rush 2 Get Rid Of Fif..All I Say Is Milk While U Can..Cuz Its Gonna Cost Big Time 2 For Ant Label To Sign Him..

  3. RealTalkNY Says:

    If I even mention 50 i’m a hater. Think what you want but I’m talking facts here. If your song is not in the top 50 how can you consider it a hit?

    I would pay to see Nigel vs 50 Cent in a cage match.

  8. Challenger 5 Says:

    Lets get serious guys….
    do you consider ‘get up’ a HIT record?
    nice song, nice record, but i barely hear it,
    not too many people are feeling it unless they
    are die hard fans, but its not gettin the buzz
    like ‘i get money’ was on fire when it dropped,
    thats what rtny is saying, it didnt blow up no
    matter your opinion, facts are it didnt blow up

  9. 2shooters Says:

    Yea..
    I’m A Part Of My Team..
    Exposing Bias On Web Sites..LoL..

    I Dint Post The Top 100 Cuz From 50-100 U Have 2 Subscribe 2 It..But I Don’t Doubt Get Up Is On That List..

    So With 5 Weeks On The Chart U Say It Cant Crack Top 50..

    Man Y’all Got Caught Shock Postin..Face It..
    Cuz That Logic Has Nothing To Do With A Album Being Pushed Back..

  10. G-roc/thisis50 Says:

    you dont have to have a big hit to push back, jay-z didn’t have any songs in the top 50 on american gangster but he didn’t push back, if u honestly thought 50 was gonna release an album wit 1 single out ur crazy

  11. RealTalkNY Says:

    2 Shooters you thought you had ether but you failed. A song thats drops a high budget video and been out for weeks should be in the top 50 if it is a hit.

    Just take the L

  12. veraci0us Says:

    every day its the same shit different toilet… Bloggers and RTNY goin back and forth over records sales and chart positions.. Every day Bloggers and RTNY speculating about whether 50 has fallen off or not..

    Am i the only one tired with this never ending cycle of Bull Shit smh..

    RTNY your not a company exec at interscope, so stop speculating and makin out its fact.. Power corrupts and your definitely showin a lack of integrity.

  13. 2shooters Says:

    11..
    Ur Logic Fails..
    How U Know Get Up Was A Big Budget?
    Look Cheapish 2 Me..Only The CGI Cost..

    Wheres The Blueprint On That..
    U Lose..U Cant Pass That Information Off As A Fact..
    U Just Cant..Where’s The Memo? If So Post It..

    BTW..Ludacris Come Out Next Week And He’s Not On The Top 50..
    Just Face It RealtalkNy..U Got Busted Son..LoL..
    Now Go Do A Interview Wit Q..LoL..

  14. blao Says:

    Get Up = Flop

    G-Unit street team = homo ass niggaz

  15. AJB4 Says:

    Hold up “Get Up” debuted at number 44 on the billboard charts and yesterday it was number 10 on 106 and park, he’s just gettin started

  16. Xsposer Says:

    Realtalk, ignore these fuckin idiots. They are totally not paying attention to anything u say. I have never seen gayer fans then this. Hip-hop is not about music no more. It is about people and their favourite artist now.

  17. booboo james Says:

    morons they’re waiting to drop it because they’re hoping for an economic upswing in early ‘09.

  18. Hi Hater! Says:

    RTNY = 50 cent #1 hater

  19. rickyricon Says:

    wtf the comercial was longer than wa 50 actually said bullshit

    OFFICER RICK LEONARD ROSS Says:

    “I wanna get a chance to present some of my other material…”-50 Cent

    THE R-E-A-L REASON WHY 50 IS PUSHING BACK HIS ALBUM:

    #1-THE MOVIE HE’S FILMING ALONGSIDE IT,THE QUALITY OF THE BISD MOVIE IS…WELL,LET’S JUST SAY THE QUALITY ISN’T UP TO PAR YET-THUS,THEY’RE MOST LIKELY DELAYING THE ALBUM TO WORK ON THE FILM SOME MORE.

    REMEMBER,FIF IS STILL TRYING TO BREAK INTO HOLLYWOOD ‘BLOCKBUSTER’ MOVIE SCENE,ALL THE MOVIES HE’S BEEN IN SO FAR HAVE EITHER TANKED AT THE BOX OFFICE,OR PRODUCED VERY LITTLE PROFIT.HE’S NOT BANKABLE YET IN THE MOVIE INDUSTRY,THEREFORE,I’M PRETTY SURE HE WANTS HIS BISD MOVIE TO BE SOMETHING THAT STANDS OUT.

    #2-NOT ONLY ARE THEY PLANNING ON RELEASING HIS UPCOMING ALBUM ALONGSIDE HIS MOVIE,BUT THEY’RE ALSO PLANNING ON RELEASING HIS UPCOMING ALBUM ALONGSIDE HIS UPCOMING VIDEOGAME.THE VIDEOGAME RECENTLY CHANGED PUBLISHERS,THUS THE GAME WAS PUSHED BACK TO NEXT YEAR AS WELL.
    ——————————————-

    I’M MORE THAN POSITIVE INTERSCOPE AND 50s INTENTION WITH HIS LAST ALBUM IS TO GENERATE AS MUCH REVENUE AS POSSIBLE;A MOVIE+VIDEOGAME+ALBUM RELEASE IS SURE TO ACCOMPLISH THAT.

    AND A SIDE NOTE;GET UP IS SORT OF LIKE THE APPETIZER TO THE ALBUM,THIS IS N-O-T THE SONG THEY’RE PLANNING TO USE TO CARRY THE ENTIRE ALBUM.

  21. omar Says:

    actually nigel u are a hater lolz i never comment on you but why hate no the man that brings the most buzz on your site? feel me lol

    deep down inside you love 50cent… juss face it

  22. bushwick pure Says:

    that get up song is a beast beat is craazy juss a wack video he should do the video over on some in a club with some hoes type shit

  23. WHITE BOY...................CHICAGO Says:

    ^^^^co sign..lol

  24. WHITE BOY...................CHICAGO Says:

    Realtalkny hates 50 but is in luv with K-Yeezzy!!

  25. omar Says:

    on***********

  26. sideshowRaheem Says:

    Why can’t people just except that the single didn’t do well? If you look at where 50 was at just a short time ago anything he put out charted well but the lead singles from these past two projects just haven’t lived up to his usual thats just fact not hate. A lable just doesn’t deside to push an album back 3 months for no reason, lets get real.

  27. HipHop&Depression Says:

    look 50.. every1 wants u to self destruct.. so don’t call it that.. jus like Cam called u Curtis.. and u named it ur album title and look what happened ASS CHEEKS. i got 1 4 u.. if u really wanna “push the restart button”… throw that Get Rich or Die Tryin Pt. 2… use the concept of how ur rich.. but ur celebrity or record sales r dien out… feed off that… holla at Dre. and hurry up b4 Roc Season begins again.. cuz the only way u can fuck with Jay-Z is if u fuck Beyonce… and i HIGHLY doubt that shit… if u do.. make “P.I.M.P Pt. 3″ lol

  28. WHITE BOY...................CHICAGO Says:

    ^^^lol

  29. umm Says:

    omg realtalky if i see one more hating ass 50 post im never coming back to this site…

    i mean the video just fucking came out last week…
    give the single a chance..

    the only reason u think it aint “blown” is because we got the song a long ass time ago cuz the net gets shit exclusivly…but as far as tv and shit which is presented to a bigger audience the shit JUST came out

  30. G-roc/thisis50 Says:

    why you dudes gotta hate, The massacre has like 5 singles in the top 5, cutis had 2 in the top 10, what has camron did? or wayne or TI? Curtis sold 690k first week, dats more than your favorite rapper, damn u clowns are too easy to make look bad

  31. murK Says:

    insider scoop…his next song is norman bates motel. it’s true get up didn’t have the impact he wanted to but he’s gonna release the song with em, to create buzz for both of their upcoming projects.

  32. murK Says:

    oh & to add, get up is at #44 so it did crack top 50.

  33. Clipz
    Clipz Says:

    LOL @ 2Shooters, the same nigga advertising 50 videos in every comment is tha same nigga defending him like its his purpose in life.

    These “G-Unit soldiers” are pretty loyal i guess.

  34. britt Says:

    50 is wack i thought thid nigga was suppose to retire when he loss to kanye

  35. driza Says:

    i must admit fif lost a step but his music is still that shit…..on the real tho #1 nigel u my dude but it seems t me ersince fif dint let u get that interview….u been kinda sour bout dat cuz i remember u fukd wit the boy hard…but still in ur defense it seems like he got rich(wealthy) n stop trying….see t me the era of the hardbody nigga getting dirty money is coming to an end…so young cats nowadays cant relate to that gangsta shit(real gangsta shit)dats y nigggas like hov n em tryn t switch their flow(kinda failing)……nuff saifd

  36. balaramesh Says:

    50’s singles are buzzing like them were before on an international level. granted, it’s still fairly early. we will see what happens. not a fan of fiddy but he will do numbers better than most rappers. and he has the best marketing machine and free promotion out (g-unit stans)

  37. cuttoff Says:

    realtalkny be hating on 50 cent!keep on hating, that nigga shut yall niggas down!hell, thisis50 is killing this website already!thats why realtalkny be hating,cuz thisis50 be posting hotter shit than yall.

  38. County Of Kings Says:

    lmao @2shooters. u proving rtny point for him, u over here posting billboard charts sayin he’s in the top 50 on the billboard hiphop charts. tell me since when did 50 give 2 fucks about being high on the hiphop charts. the hiphop charts wont do shit for him niggas aint makin him rich. he cares about being top 50 on the worldwide charts the nationwide charts, not top 50 hiphop charts thats an insult to 50. he aint tryin to be popular within the hiphop community he wants that guap and the hiphop charts dont get that guap so relax. this get up joint is nowhere near 50 usual buzz in the streets. not hatin just callin it like i see it

  39. cuttoff Says:

    #37,i feel what your saying but look at them curtis first singles! he came with a little heat than he came with the biggest song of the year with that i get money!i think he is off 2 good start,watch this next single,u know that nigga always got something up his sleeve.that get up shit is just getting us warmed up.and its hot

  40. cuttoff Says:

    i meant #38
