Kanye Vs. Curtis - Who Will Win The Showdown Sept. 11th?

Peep this! http://www.rapgodfathers.com/content/view/3750/165/ 50 Cent has nearly the double the money to his name as Kanye. "It doesn't pay to be nice, but it's nice to be paid." - Fabolous

There's been so much bullshit said regarding this topic, but I'm not gonna respond to all of it. The fact that this debate is even happening is a clear cut example of why some feel Hiphop is dead. Do any of you consider yourselves hiphoppas? If you do, I beg to differ. A real hiphoppa doesn't even care about who outsells who. Its about the creativity of the artist. Somebody said 50 is businessman...there enlies the problem. There's too much business involved and not enough creativity. Does anyone know, the reason Curtis got pushed to 9/11 is cuz Interscope didnt feel it was good enough to put on the shelves? This question of who will outsell who, would not have even come up if 50 had put together somethin decent enough for Jimmy to approve. The cd would have dropped in July. Someone said early on in this debate that they can't fuck with Ye cuz he keeps changin his style...uhhh thats what creativity does. It takes you out of the box. You're afraid of tryin somethin new cuz you're in the box with the rest of the non creative people like 50. in closing...there's 2 types of people who buy 50's cd's: stupid little girls and thug wannabes who think they have to be hard to impress those stupid little girls. And neither one of those types are educated consumers. No real hiphoppa nor a lover of music is buyin that shit. There's nothing creative about anything he does or says. He's just like a corporation. He has a product to sell and he's gonna do whatever it takes to sell it. And btw, he doesnt care about any of you just like he didnt care about any of the crackheads he sold crack to. You're no different than them in his eyes. Open yours. I'm buyin Graduation. I'm downloadin Curtis.

the dude that said about 50 had more of the white population who had his albums..nah they have his old albums when he wasnt singin and shit but his new shit even got them dissin on him "GGGG-UUUNNNNOOTTT" -The Game

wtf the majority of the ppl here say that 50 will sell more albums cuz its more popular but they themselves are gonne buy graduation... i personally think kanyes will sell more cuz more females listen to kanye AND he actually is MORE popluar internationally then 50 at the mom. see kanyes smart... hes heavily aiming at the azn market with all the jap cover-art and his new clip recorded in tokyo. i live in germany and kanyes single is about as big as 50's but from what i hear and read most ppl are gonne buy graduation. im gonne buy both cuz both gonne be sick

I do not understand this so called "battle"...i dont even know why people listen to kanye...Only song i ever listened to of Kanye is "cant tell me nothin"..and that i only listen to the remix...the beats hard but kanye??...kanye???..wow...id rather listen to rnB the rest of my life...I know theres always speculation over 50...but 50s makin shit that sells...wouldnt say hes a hard rapper, or his lyrics is hard...but he does what he does...and hes the highest paid in the game...and to compare him to kanye is jus stupid...Kanye thinks he jesus....no respect for him...and for yall idiots arguin on here...talkin bout come to such and such city and well fight...grow up...us grown men got better things to do...

Its a close call with these too i mean the 50 sells records kanye does too but the fan base will buy 50 over kanye in the end because of the amount of club jionts and R&B type joints that may be on 50's album. kanye rather do some wild shit like have a guest apearance by yo yo ma or some wild shit like that 50 is a hustler he gonna sell or die tryin. I like kanye over fifty personally cause his beats are rediculous the skits make me laugh and i dig what hes tryin to do. But when i want to drop the windows and bump the system and have the block bumpin im gonna pop in 50 over Ye and when you got to the clube your gonna hear 50 over Ye...for every knay club joint there like 3 for fifty so who are we talkin about that buyin this music ( im not gonna go inot color) Cats thats watchin videos or in the clubs or listening to main stream radio.....tru hip hop in on the under ground on the mix taps and in the streets that doesnt mean that those are the people buying the music and ringtones personally forreal i aint buyin shit i dont got the money for them and there gonna have enough sales with out my little drop in the bucket so i rather get it ahead of time threw my "SOURCES" and enjoy the content untill the time frame when a brotha got enough in the bank to start buyin music in the stores until then 50 will sell more ye will have very respectable numbers and possibly hotter shit overall Be Easy

I Think, 50's Album will be better, coz he has working with Dr.Dre, Eminem & Timbaland... Take a look to my Black Music Blog http://hfm.cx.la

ima go buy kayne's album. fuc currrrtttiisssss. even though kanye wack but he nice on dem beats. stick 2 da beats son. darealsteve-o

50's greatest album was Power Of A Dollar....everything since that has been soft and him singin the hooks (which people ignore that he dissed Ja Rule for) which killed him. I'm white (been white for 29 years) and I haven't liked anything of his since that CD...Real recognize real, but real hip hop heads don't BUY music, the D/L it and 50 knows that...so 50 will more than likely out-sale Kanye...

Baha, watch, Kenny Chesney...the country singer will outsell BOTH of them. I know this shit is about them, but watch this dude beat'em both. His last 4 albums have been #1 on release. Baha. But if I had to choose, I'd say 50. Good evening, enjoy yourself. Its a joyous occasion you employee yourself. Good evening.

I Think, 50's Album will be Submitted by coolman0704 on Fri, 08/24/2007 - 4:17pm. I Think, 50's Album will be better, coz he has working with Dr.Dre, Eminem & Timbaland... coolman07 says that he thinks 50s album will sell more because of his producers and his guests on his cd. This is provin my point of if someone buys his album there not buyin it for him or w/e...they could be loyal fans to dre or em or even timbaland and just support everything they do...honestly i say fuck 50 and all this bullshit...u heard 50 talkin shit and showin no respect to kanye sayin how he should move the date of his release...i mean u dont hear kanye talkin shit about how 50 should move his date or anything like that cuz kanye has respect for his competition and the game itself...I mean if 50 thinks hes the shit and is gonna refer to gettin shot 9 times and havin a near death experience then he can shut the fuck up because kanye was in the car crash which he could have died as well...its just kanyes was an accident and 50's was that he had someone who hated him enough to kill him and got lucky enough to live...like why even talk about it and think ur the shit cuz u took 9 bullets and didnt die...u got lucky but u should just be happy to be alive instead of promotin ur shit...yea yea i know 50s lyrics used to be the shit but i could never stand his 9 bullets shit...so the fuck what u got shot in the hood for runnin ur mouth when theres people in iraq riskin there lives to protect the country and shit...kanye will outsell 50 because just look at the votes plus the guy who gave statistics on the early sales and everyone who says they think 50 is gonna win says that there gonna buy kanyes album tho...im reppin kanye cuz he talks about some real shit and the only people he's dissin is the president which is on some real issues....SO BUY GRADUATION AND SUPPORT THE REAL ARTISTS "50 can suck my dick"-The Game

i just got both albums and i have to say i dont mind 50's, its alot better then his previous shit. i think i kept 1-2 songs off kaynes cd and deleted the rest lol, and kept bout less then half of 50's album since most of it has bin leaked, but 50's beats r way better then kayne's i bet 50 will win, but that dont mean shit.........."Only Sucka's measure skills on the length of they dough" - JIN

World Wide and Locally Respected, I'm Online All The Time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow I've heard Kanye's champion song and to me it murders all of 50's tracks that I've heard. I mean sometimes Kanye can chat breeze but overall he's records take me some where. But 50 seems like he's been using the same formula since the massacre album!!!!!!! Just seems like he ain't really trying any more. Ayo technology and I get money are the songs that really stand out to me so far, that's it.

Both are weak. 50 sings the same old shit about his gats and gunholes. His new addiction to pussy makes half the cd love anthems. Kanye sings about his shopping habits and how he still wants more money. His beats will be his usually high pitch singing in the back with strings and drums, which can be enjoyable dont get me wrong. Thats my opinion that ill still agree with on sept 11 when the cds are re-released as retail..

already got both C.D.'s 50 = wack ass beats kanye = wack ass vocals i don't really like either of them to be honest....

Promotion, Promotion, Promotion! The hype for these two albums overshadows the hype for all other albums in every genre of music this year combined!!!! Kind of sad if you ask me.......Enough said for real for real! "Let's get one thing clear/ the South's right here/ still got the Grammy for the album of the year/ 12 mill sold, still flyin' on Leers/ over 30 million dollars in the past 3 years/ cuz I gets money, money I got/ the first in the hood wit' the Bentley drop top/ the Jacob goes tick, the Automal goes tock/ fruity pebble diamonds, they say I'm on rockZ/ I get that gwapelay/ own 12 propertays/ only game I play, real life Monopolay/ PROPERLAY/ and ain't no need for apoloGies/ sorry is as sorry does/ follow me cuz" –Ludacris "Let the Champaigne splash, let that man get cash, let that man get passed/ He don't even stop to get gas, if he can move through the rumors he can drive off of fumes cuz/ how he move in a room full of "no's," how he stay faithful in a room full of hoes/ must be the Pharoahes, He in tune wit' his Soul/ so when he buried in a tomb full of gold/ treasure, what's your pleasure?/ life is a uhhh, dependin' how you dress her/ so if the devil where Prada, Adam Eve wear nada, I'm in between but way more fresha/ wit' way less effort/ cuz when you try hard, that's when you die hard" -Kanye West Support the real artists. B-More signin' out...1

50 will outsell Kanye just because of his fan base!! first album sold 11 million and his second sold 12 million!! right now according to billboard - Graduation" leads with 781,000 units, followed by "Curtis" with 603,000. http://www.spymac.com/details/?2253846
