A big thing to watch for will be the % decline in the 2nd week. I think it's better than 50/50 that "50" buys up a bunch of his albums. Then again, he talked about Jay doing it (which I'm 90% sure he did, had somethin like 80% drop in week 2 sales, lol) so he's prolly smart enough to buy up his albums for a couple weeks straight. Sound crazy? Maybe, but 50's ego is waaaay to big to lose to Kanye. All signs point to 50 really slidin these days, and losing out to Kanye would be pretty significant. And shit, you know 50 throwin out $10 mill ain't shit for him.All things being equal, I think Kanye would crush 50 by 33% or more if it's just fans buying them.I'm coppin Kanye, and I'm hiding 50's cd when i find it, lol.
MMLP did like 1.7 mil first week didnt it
big day for hiphop
Funny that the article mentions Kenny Chesney in the mix - the group of people who buy both his and Kanyes/50s album is pretty marginal.I'm not looking at some predictions though. Not even 1 day in and people are predicting numbers, what the fuck?
50 selling 600,000 in the first week ain't good. Especially since he said he guaranteed a mill plus a while back.
