Quote from: Foday-muh'fuckin-Sankoh, bitch! on September 12, 2007, 05:32:49 PMI think it really just comes down to the fact that Kanye's got the hotter single right now, whereas 50 has had six which were all unsuccessful by his standards. Granted, 50's also pissed off a lot of the heads, but that wouldn't be a factor for the white girls if he had a hot single, and he just...doesn't.that would make the most sense, but then how do you explain T.I.'s platinum album without a big single?? Not trying to be an asshole, just curious...

But a lot more people are rushing to buy Kanye's album now simply cause they've heard "Stronger" and are diggin it. It's not that 50's album won't sell; it just doesn't have the same level of anticipation as Kanye's without a huge hit.

Quote from: Timbo the king on September 12, 2007, 01:06:40 PMIt would be funny as fuck, to see 50 come at number 3.To his defense, Interscope has fucked up the promotion on this album.
