    hell yeah!!

    DMX drop It’s Dark and Hell Is Hot, and Flesh of My Flesh both within a year
    and he achieve great success…

    thats what i think music needs from their top artist,
    drop albums like mixtapes,
    mixtapes get drop on a weekly somethings a monthly bases
    so albums need to do the same,

  12. 2cents Says:

    but it CAN happen

  13. Jenny Says:

    hell naaww

  14. Kell-El Says:

    No shots but I’m not interested, 50 never did it for me (n/h)

  15. Joe Says:

    one album better have all street song….kinda bored with these club songs.

  16. historick Says:

    cosign wit joe but at least 2 or 3…anyway
    need 2 drop at least one lol

  17. we stone Says:

    more doesnt always mean better.. i’d rather have one great album than two measly albums

  18. Sheila Says:

    This is 50 cent, of course it’s going to be successful.
    They’re both going to be Platinum within a month.

  19. leila Says:

    the second one is the greatest hits.

    50 already said he’s trying to get the last one outta the way (that’s y he’s doing a greatest hits) cuz that’ll end his obligations to interscope.

  20. Ezee-T Says:

    It’s not as bad an idea as releasing a double CD.

  21. yeahhh Says:

    People have been talking about what 50’s been doing….apparently, when Eminem got mad that Crack a Bottle leaked, 50 used it as an opportunity to get on the record and user EM and DRE to give his new album buzz, since noone was looking out for it anyways. (If you notice, in the unfinished version, EM says…”The platinum DUO is back”…now, oddly its the platinum TRIO. 50 won’t release his album until after EM because he wants to use EM’s album as publicity for his own album, and then make it seem like his album is a prequel to Detox. EM didn’t want 50 on crack a bottle, but he didn’t want to start bullshit problems so he just let him anyways…

  22. the Sun Says:

    y dont yall post that footage of rick ross boy gunplay laid out on the concrete after getting knocked out? yall posted the footage of triple c talkin all that shit now post the footage of that clown dude getting knocked out..

  23. MAB Says:

    22.the sun… he has..
    anddd i rekon this will good for him.. shows he still in the music game and not teh cartoon game and he is talented and can make hits

  24. HipHop&Depression Says:

    i think the nigga needs to focus on making ONE sick album but that’s just me…

  25. Joe Gerd Says:

    Best idea i’ve heard from fif

  26. Ezee-T Says:

    @#21 yeahh. Really?? Eminem did’nt want 50 on “Crack A Bottle”??? Are you sure?? Did you speak to him??? Now I understand to have your own theories but I also have one of my own:

    Now I may be wrong about this but isn’t it true that if 50’s album sells then Eminem and Dre get richer? So why would’nt he want him to succeed.

  27. ChrisFromthaDothaPHX Says:

    the second is a greatest hits album and what are we even analyzing this for? Kanye Dropped 2 albums in the same year within a 2-3 window.

  28. shine95 Says:

    mothafucka u suppose to retire long time ago. the fuck happened to that?

  29. PIGGY ROSS Says:

    “mothafucka u suppose to retire long time ago. the fuck happened to that?”

    CURTIS-OVER 7 MILLION COPIES SOLD WORLDWIDE.IF YOU NEED A FUCKING KLEENEX I CAN SEND YOU ONE

    AS FOR 50 DROPPING 2 ALBUMS IN ONE YEAR,CAN BOTH ALBUMS ACHIEVE SUCCESS?YES.CAN BOTH ALBUMS SELL OVER 5 MILLION COPIES?NO,NOT IN THIS CURRENT CLIMATE.

  30. AV Says:

    3 months ago there were news on thisis50 that “curtis” sold about 2.5 million worldwide so far and that kanye’s “graduation” had sold only a little more worldwide.

    other numbers is just untrue internet rumors

  31. emsabeast Says:

    this is to “yeahhh”….stop coming up with hip hop conspiracy theories lol u dont know that em didnt want fifty on it..i’m guessing he did i mean after all no matter how cocky fifty is, em’s his boss…and not only that but he’s smart enough not to start beef with em, he’s too ill.. that would end 50’s career…think about it

  32. IamRealTalK Says:

    4get numbas
    aslong as da music rite

  33. Temp Says:

    FAIL OF THE WEEK : tinyurl.com/cjnq7j

  34. MAB Says:

    number 21.. who the fuk are u his personal assistant? thats gossip dude dont believe everything u read

  35. Pounce Says:

    His 2nd album this year will most likely be a greatest hits album. He’s trying to line himself up to get a big deal come 2010 from Interscope or someone else. His first album this year prob won’t affect the 2nd one because songs like I get money, candy shop, and in da club will be on there.

  36. www.myspace.com/tybanditproductions Says:

    That’s what’s up

    http://Www.myspace.com/tybanditproductions

  37. DjRob757 Says:

    He shouldnt drop two albums Eminem also they should just make a mixtape to promote their alubms IDK but the only reason 50 push his album back is to get help promoting his album by Em’s album cuz whenever you hear relapse, crack a bottle, or detox your going to hear Before I Self Destruct……….

  38. okokokaay Says:

    @1 When DMX did it he was still new coming off a classic niggas couldnt wait for a follow up.

    The 50 hype machine is dead.

    Just make one fire ass album Fif!

  39. the real gangster Says:

    hell yeh!!!!!!!!!!!!!2 fithy albums!!!also i need that tony yayo album he coming with that fire!!!in 09

  40. leavemebe Says:

    it’s a know fact that 50 doesn’t have many fans in the states. the majority of his fans are international, so in saying that, he could give 2 fucks about what is said on these blogs by his haters. as soon as kanye sold more then 50 the first week everyone said 50 lost, but no one ever talked about the millions he sold internationally. this country is consumed with so much hate and evilness. remember 50 money does not come from music, it comes from smart investments.

    Co sign true statement

  42. U R NOT LIKE ME Says:

    trying to eat off Eminem

    50 would do anything to sell records

  43. BUCKED Says:

    he doesnt eat off eminem its the other way round.

    i dnt get when ppl criticise artists for trying to sell records. so ur saying you’d prefer that they jus put any old thing out?

  44. LA21 Says:

    50 drop two albums this year= 2 BRICKS

  45. jb Says:

    yea one will be a greatest hits album im picking them both up he will go plat on both and em will go 4 times plat on his first and prolly like 2 times plat on his second so that 8 milli sold by em and 50 just off hype the rap game is sewn back up hopefully dre drop detox or 50 let lloyd banks come wit an album or spider loc with the right hype spi can prolly go gold…

  46. foRealHipHop Says:

    Man, real hiphop is http://www.youtube.com/thefluoric
    hes honestly so sick and new

  47. i dont care what anybody Says:

    smart idea with greatest hits he has an arsenal of hits that make haters sick…..
    cosign;the 1st one should be straight street!
    who thinks he’s re-signing a deal w/ interscope?
    He clearly has the funds to do it himself…..

  48. kl Says:

    I doubt he can put out another good album. fuck his world wide sales, white people in europe probably only buy his shit because of eminem they don’t know any better, how many black people in the usa are gonna buy his cd.

  49. WilddGame Says:

    Piggy Ross… once again with Formula 50 Cockmeatsandwiches pressed between his cheek&gums like tobacco. 7mill? umm..

    Regardless, good luck 50, hes already talked about a Greatest Hits… and i beleive the “Crack” track was only supposed to be Em and Dre, but 50 knows what time it is, so he made sure he was on that shit. And it wouldnt make sense to not have him on there… the click would look divided.

    About him not wanting it with Em… the only realistic ppl that could end 50 would be Em, Dre or Jay, imo.

  50. THEDON Says:

    DAMN FIFTY FINNA TRYNNA DOUBLE UP IM LOOKIN OUT 4 BUSTA’S ALBUM ,FABOLOUS,DRE,EM OF COURSE,AND FIFTY JUST SO WE GET A GOOD VARIETY OF SOUND THIS YEAR.BECAUSE IF WE ONLY GOT ONE SOUND MAKIN THE SHIT THEN THE ARTFORM WILL FALL OFF BECAUSE IT’S NOT ENOUGH VARIETY FOR THE CONSUMERS .THATS PART OF THE REASON ALBUM SALES IN RAP ARE TANKING….BY THE WAY IF YALL WANNA HEAR SOME FIYA ASS PRODUCTION OUTTA THE CHI GET AT ME ON MYSPACE.COM/EDBONKAZBEATZ AND ADD ME PEACE….

  51. jo jo Says:

    when is he going to sign Gucci Mane, him and gucci are real tight I know this for a fact, Im glad he is about to drop 2 albums

  52. bossofchitown Says:

    GOOD LUCK FIFTY WE NEED ALL THESE CATS WHETHER PPL HATE ON EM OR NOT.IM NOT REALLY INTO ALL THE POSTING HATIN ASS COMMENTS AND SHIT BUT YEA 09 MIGHT BE A THE YEAR WHEN WE COME OUT THIS RAP RECESSION;DETOX RELAPSE BP3 TILL THE CASKET DROPS(CLIPSE) BFISD BUT DAT REAL HIP HOP RIGHT HERE http://www.myspace.com/edbonkazbeatz

  53. G-Dub Says:

    If Gucci Signs with the Unit he would become the most hated Artist out of the South!!….Not to mention Gucci is one of the Most loved in the South, but the HAte that 50 has here in the States would Make people turn on Gucci SMH….. its called fickle Fans

    As far as the 2 Albums i Posted this LAst Night so ur LAte Nigel lol

    What Em, Dre, and 50 are doing is Getting ready to Over Flood the Airwaves these next couple of Months and are going to make it really hard for Artist to Drop their Records..Look Kiss just Got Pushed Back INDEFINATELY, FAb has no Release Date, Officer ricky is dropping in April a Month ahead of Ems project and Joey a$$ crack will get pushed back soon and Lil waynes Rock lp has No release Date lol

    This was Orchestrated by the MAchine(Jimmy Iovine) who wants to Cement him self as the most hated CEO in Music lol Along with the Most HAted Rappers in Hip Hop… i Love it

    They Warned u Guys that it would be a COLD SUMMER! but u didnt listen now there going to make it to where their the only artist Coming out in the Summer lol

    “Its the Return of Aftermath it aint going be nothing after that”

    Three Headed Monster arrives in May…Let the HAte begin :)

  54. Smurf Says:

    Yo wtf happened to this site?
    I used to check this shit daily
    But now its nothing but 50 and Ross posts with this Piggy Ross loser poluting each one
    Im off here

  55. PIGGY ROSS Says:

    WHY SHOULD I WASTE MY TIME RESPONDING TO AN AIDS INFECTED COCKROACH,I HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO WITH MY TIME

    SO WILDDGAME,I’LL TALK TO YOU LATER SWEETHEART

  56. DOWLOAD CIARA NEVER EVER ON ITUNES Says:

    50 sexy um back..lol I think it’s a good idea.

  57. SinCereDaRealist Says:

    hell nah….both these albums will flop and if “before i self destruct” doesnt flop itll be becuz his last album flopped and people wanna see if he progressed or regressed so….
    i dont think any one of them will do good. we lookin at the end of 50. haha enjoy it
    S.W.G 602 stand up!

  58. 2cents Says:

    The conspiracy theory sounds right…

    Curtis is notorious for biting a hand that fed him (bang em, nas, master p, etc) even though he’s done well with shady/aftermath to date as most can tell!

    When did international sales become important to us (not as “businessmen” but as “U.S. consumers”)?

    lastly its funny (i’m surprised actually) how folks are ready to admit Curtis ain’t makin money via the music!

  59. County Of Kings Says:

    he really gonna ride that em wave huh, what if em dont do what he supposed to do then will he still drop 2?
    like i said a few weeks ago, if he promoted banks as much as he promotes other niggas, niggas would have more respect for the music of gunit. instead of the spectacle of 50

  60. Swerv Says:

    he is a marquee artist so yea he will be relativily succesful..
    but in no way will it compare to dmx’s 2 album debut of the late 90’s
    he coulda did that whe get rich dropped but…he aint really that heavy no more
    in all actuallity..no rapper is ….nowadays

  61. WilddGame Says:

    you such a sweet ass nigga, huh Piggy Ross?
    thats cute.
    Tootles you bitchass niggie lol

  62. 50cent albums Says:

    yahh it is good idea of 50cent that he releases two albums this year…….wowww
