50 Cent sells 157k in 1st week

[A1]

Watch how boring the rap game is the day 50 retires.

Saw this yesterday so copped it, haven't watched the DVD yet, there's enough bangers on here for my liking. If I spin a CD more than 5 or 6 times it deserves my money, we'll see if I'm still listening to this in a few months though. Listened to Relapse for this first time in awhile yesterday, god damn the drums on De Ja Vu are dope, the snare is insane!

[virtuoso]

Lol! Rick Ross sold more than him? after 50 cent dissed his sales, saying he had won  i guess that came back to bite him in the ass

[D-Nice]

Well I guess from reading on sohh, they said 50 did 161k 1st. I think Ross did 158k but who is keeping score. Sales is not everything right?

Yep

I guess I am in the minority when I say this album is banging.
Nice production, and 50 was consistent throughout on it.
Has heavy replay value for me.

Too early to tell if it got replay value.
But I kept most of the tracks... so lets see.

i didn't expect that.
did you keep Ok You're right?

[YSH]

yo.......i think 50  leaked this shit ......
he knew shit was not gonna sell well so he had to make up an excuse.....

[Action!]

i want to see where his new home label will be or if he'll stick with interscope

[dubsmith_nz]

i want to see where his new home label will be or if he'll stick with interscope

I would love to see him go independent, he's got enough money to do everything on his own, real creative control

definately.I would love eminem to do the same.Seems he an sign artists but cant release them because interscope says they arent marketable or whatever.At the very least eminem should open an independant label so we could see the slaughterhouse album through him.Same with cashis,bobby creekwater,stat quo,and obie trice.Hell I wonder if the reason young zee didnt get an album on shady was because they didnt think he would sell.

i see, so you could actually tolerate 50's mumbling on Ok you're right

so you rate Psycho as decent: let me guess...Eminem?

also LOL at you for keeping Could've been you: when it first leaked you were dissing it

Tbh 50 tried releasing a grimey NY sounding album in 2009 which was never gonna sell when you consider what's popular at the moment. He'll probably go the Jay route and throw big name rnb singers on all his tracks for his next album.
