50 Cent’s, “Before I Self Destuct,” sold 160k records in its first week of sales, including digital sales according to Billboard.com. In comparison, Rick Ross’, “Deeper Than Rap,” debuted with 158k sold in the first week. Other major releases this year were Jay-Z(476k), & Eminem(608k). What do you think of Rick Ross & 50 Cent basically selling the same amount?

So what do you feel is the cause of the decline in 50 Cent’s popularity and sales? (Feel free to say what 48 Laws of Power he didn’t obey)

& if you REALLY wanna know the truth : to me, 50 album wasn’t that bad….. I contributed to that 161,000 … Karma is just a B-I-T-C-H.

Smh every 50 Cent interview mentions Jay-Z. Is 50 to blame or the people asking the questions?

50 Cent Before I Self Destruct Release Concert Photos

50 Cent had his Myspace release concert for, “Before I Self Destruct,” last night in NYC. 50 surprised the crowd by bringing out Beanie Sigel to do his own set which ended with, “I Go Off.” At the 24 second mark you can see 50 Cent throw up the Roc and then do a throat slashing gesture. The crowd was hype for Beanie Sigel, maybe this was part of an audition for Beanie Sigel to join G-Unit? Do you think 50 Cent will get rid of Beanie Sigel once the album promo stops?
