    Kanye's album is much better that 50's. Kanye needs to stick to music though and shut the hell up about a MTV award.

    according to Allhiphop.com 50 was ahead in preorders by about 20,000.
    "The count is 339,079 for 50 and 319,212 for Kanye" and that was just pre-orders. I find it hard to believe that 40 will only sell another 160k

  45. frog legs says – reply to this


    45

    bout time! 50 has no talent! Kanye worked so hard on his album and it shows. He's one of the few people in pop music still willing to speak his mind. Good for him.

    58

    top 10 baby

  59. Erin Peep says – reply to this


    59

    And I would buy 50 Cent's album over Kanye's.

    Kanye needs to stop whining like a little bitch. Grow up.

    50 has had way more hit records than Kanye.
    And when Kanye can make a hit of his own - one that is not based on other music samples - maybe I will consider buying his shit.

  60. Steph. says – reply to this


    60

    Good, Kanye is way better than fiddy anyways.

  61. persiangurl says – reply to this


    61

    C'mon perez kanye is such a cry baby.. At least 50 is a man about his shit.. The day isnt over im sure 50 will beat kanye i hope so..plus 50 got talent kanye is a backpack rapper h'es boo-boo..

  62. BRITNEY BITCH says – reply to this


    62

    FUCK KANYE WEST HIS NOTHING BUT A SCUM BAG HATER…..I THINK 50 IS MUCH BETTER IN MAKING SOME GOOD SOUNDING MUSIC AND AS FAR AS KANYE BEING A LIL BITCH AT THE MTV AWARDS SHAME ON HIM…SUCK IT UP BITCH OR ILL GIVE U SOMETHIN TO SUCK ON

  63. tony says – reply to this

    Question Perez,

    Why does everyone hate Fiddy??

    Is he a faker or what??

    I think he's kool but then again I dont know that fool.

    Now "The Game" I think is a punk bitch. But fiddy is still kool.

  81. your mom says – reply to this


    81

    first of all- kanye may outsell 50 in the US..but worldwide, 50 will blow kanye away without a doubt. out of the US NO ONE knows kanye..he is non-existant. so shove it, perez.

  82. Fiddyyy says – reply to this


    82

    Fiddy is already outselling Kanye. Hahahahaha. Gooooooo FIDDY! Please Perez get your facts straight. 50 isn't retiring, he's already said that. Kanye West is a little drama baby bitch. Ooooh boohoo he didn't win an MTV award. Stop acting like a little bitch Kanye and grow up!

  83. Starla says – reply to this


    83

    Yup….these two artists releasing their albums on the same day is doing exactly what Kanye expected it to do. (it's temporarily shining a spotlight on hip-hop/rap) This move was made because so many people are saying that hip-hop is dead (says Kanye West). A true hip-hop lover KNOWS that hip-hop isn't going anywhere. Yet, this is how Kanye justifies himself making the decision to release his album on the same day as Fifty……how pathetic………I miss the "Through the Wire" Kanye…..I miss the underground freestlyes of 50…..not really a fan of either of them today……ESPECIALLY not Kanye West; he's overly egotistical and always claiming how he "connects" with people, (fans) yet he complains about not winning awards. KANYE…..your biggest reward is LOVING WHAT YOU DO and YOUR FANS!!!!!! Who cares if you spend 'millions' on your video productions; YOU CAN'T BUY AN AWARD!

    I can't wait until it's over. Another "just something to blog about posting".

  84. 50 is better says – reply to this


    84

    50 still has time….stop hatin. I'm actually gonna go out and buy it tonight.

    regardless….kanye is a little bitch. you don't see 50 thinkin that almost every person in the world is racist. i hate people like that. I wish 50 would beat the shit out of the dude

  85. F**K 50!! says – reply to this


    85

    50 REALLY NEEDS TO RETIRE MAN, THERE WASN'T A DOUBT IN MY MIND THAT KANYE WAS GONNA OUTSELL THAT FOOL. 50 IS JUST ANOTHER COMMERCIAL RAPPER. KANYE'S MUSIC IS REAL, 50's ANOTHER RAPPER, RAPPIN BOUT $$$ AND B.S. 50 WITHDREW FROM THAT STATEMENT CUZ HOMEBOY KNEW KANYE WAS GONNA OUTSELL HIS ASS. HAHAHAHA

  86. THE REAL AND ONLY MISSMILA says – reply to this
