Everyone Must Buy Kanye West's New Album 9/11/07!!!

Now, I know what you're all thinking..."But Kanye West is crap!!!"

I know. I know. But believe me, this will be for the good of the world...

50 Cent: "I'll quit if outsold by West"
August 10, 200750 Cent believes his new album will outsell Kanye West's upcoming disc, and he's betting his solo career on it. Both 50 Cent and West have albums due out Sept. 11. 50 Cent, who has sold better than West, has been riled by forecasts that sales of West's "Graduation" could rival those for his "Curtis" CD.

"Let's raise the stakes," the 31-year-old rapper told hip-hop Web site SOHH.com in an interview posted Friday. "If Kanye West sells more records than 50 Cent on September 11, I'll no longer write music. I'll write music and work with my other artists, but I won't put out anymore solo albums."
An e-mail sent to West's publicist wasn't immediately returned Friday.
50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis James Jackson, has been publicly disparaging of West before. In 2005, he suggested the 29-year-old rapper's popularity was only possible because of 50's own success.
But they recently collaborated in the studio. Their work, though, isn't scheduled to appear on either new album.


50 Cent's last full-length solo album, "The Massacre," was the best-selling disc of 2005 and sold more than 1.14 million copies in its first week of release. The same year, West's "Late Registration" opened by selling more than 860,000 copies in its first week.

So what do you say? It's your duty as a member of the world to buy Kanye West's new album "Graduation" on September 11, 2007.



And what do we do with all these copies of the crappy album after we've bought them? Listen to them? Yeah, I wouldn't advise that.



I say we mail them all to 50 Cent.

It's a trap!

Rappers...

Rap sucks and I never pay for music.

EXACTLY! $10 to do your part to help get 50 Cent to STOP releasing solo albums!

Sure it's not keeping him from being on other people's CDs, but hey, it's a start!

 

[Warhammer]

50 should've never done this stupid beef.
Beef gets you nowhere. Shame since I just watched Get Rich or Die Tryin' a few hours ago.

Could I buy it on iTunes and delete it immediately after downloading it?

How could you!

Hmm...don't know. Probably a loophole in "Fiddy's" bet. He'll probably say that doesn't count.

I'm not sure $1 worth the risk of actually having any of his...<shudder>..."songs"....on your computer and it not "counting" in the end.

Tell that to Clara Peller...

SCREW YOU!

Anyways, 50 Cent and Kanye West are BOTH a bunch of *******s that need to go away. And this is coming from someone who LOVES rap music.

 

[Kritish]

SCREW YOU!

What, you work at a music store or something?

 

[Manic]

Kanye = someone I have little or no respect for, but whose music is listenable

50 Cent = Exactly what's wrong with rap music today.

Decisions, decisions...

It's just manufactured publicity to sell more Kanye/50 CD's. I'm sure both of these guys sit in their mansions together and swim in cash, laughing. Also, I wouldn't buy a Kanye West CD even if 50 said he'd kill himself and take Clay Aiken with him.

"Oh noes! I love fitty! I can't let him quit, I'll go buy 50 of his CD's!"

"I hate fitty! I'm gonna go buy 50 Kanye CD's!"

I wish they would both **** off and disappear.

 

[ROBOCOP CPU001]

erm....

no.

 

[Mr. Credible]

50 cent is utter crap, and i can't believe someone as awesome as eminem would vouch for him.


kanye's much, much better... though still not great.


kanye's song "stronger" (a remix of the daft punk song, harder, better, faster, stronger) though, is the best thing to happen to life in a long, long time.

^How long I been on ya?

Since Prince was on Apollonia.

Since O.J. wore Isotoners.

That's how long I been on ya.


I will confess when Kanye writes clever lyrics, they're clever.

 

[Mr. Credible]

not to mention that beat... god damn it's hard.

i love me some daft punk, too... so, that doesn't hurt.

the video's not bad, either. and i usually hate music videos.

um, no. that sucks. lol i miss old school hip hop and rap. Give me Naughty by Nature over this crap any day. Seriously, these guys have nothing on Bone Thugs or heck, give me Beastie Boys over Kanye West.


And as for "clever lyrics", I'd rather hear these guys write...

Meh, only a select few white guys can really rap. The rest are just trying to be funny or are wannabes.

 

[chamber-music]

How about we use the money everyone would spend on the kanye album and just hire a group of crack assassins to kill 50 cent instead.
