The showdown is on. On June 24th, there's three big releases on deck for to hit stores -- The Game's Los Angeles Times (LAX), G-Unit's Terminate On Sight, and Nelly's Brass Knuckles.
However, according to 50 Cent, his competition will probably only be Nelly. Why? Because he plans to push Game's album back, since he still has control over his project, he says.
In a converation with MTV, 50 explained that he will push the Compton rapper's album back to make way for his G-Unit group's project.
"I'mma wait a little, then I'm just gonna push his album back," 50 told MTV. "I don't think there's anyone that would legitimately look at him like it's a competition, him versus G-Unit. But, I think it could potentially recreate what was created with East Coast-West Coast... that energy. You got people who would side with youjust before you're from the East Coast and side just because like 'Yo, I don't really rock with Game, but this the West homie.' You feel what I'm saying? It just doesn't make sense. I earn money every time he releases an album. He signed a five-album deal. He's only on album three."
The first two singles from the upcoming G-Unit album will be "I Like the Way She Do It" and "Rider Pt. 2."
However before its release, there will be at least one more mixtape -- the highly anticipated G-Unit edition of DJ Drama's heralded mixtape series Gangsta Grillz.

"I earn money every time he releases an album"
" since he still has control over his project"
Damn 50 is quiet the business man, don't matter which album sells, he still going to be making money. Maybe thats why Game isn't releasing a 4th album, he's tired of paying 50.
-
WTF? 5 Albums? Doesn't they normally sign for max. 3 albums? Stupid Game... ::)
-
Yes because everything 50 says is true ::)
I get a cut from Soulja Boy too.
Lmao 50 gets money from The Documentary only.
-
50 doesn't have control. They signed him over to Geffen for a reason. So 50 wouldnt fuck over Game's project since they started a beef..
50 does know that Geffen is under the same umbrella as Interscope, and Universal are trying to have seperate paydays so give customers a chance to recoup.
-
Either way, one of these albums gonna get pushed back.
-
meh, im over 50 sayin all this "i'll push there album back".. who cares
-
50 aint got no control over LAX nor is he gonna get a penny from it, hes talking out of his ass again. I dont get why people always believe 50. But Games album is gonna get pushed back!!!
-
i was reading this shit a couple of days ago and they had 50 saying that the record label will push it back, not 50.

Well, if 50 really does have control over Game's album release and if he will push it back to make room for G-Unit, to me it only says one thing: He's afraid of the competition and doesn't think he can go head to head with Game. That would be a pussy move.
-
lol @ them http://www.xxlmag.com/online/?p=20987

Lmao yeah because if 50 gets money from Game he would say "If Dre works with Game im gonna diss Dre" ::)
Fact is 50 has alot of power in that building but why the fuck do yall think Jimmy Iovine would give 50 money from Game while doing nothing? That means less money for himself?! Cmon i can take more examples but 50s fans are gullible ass hell. Yes, he gets money from The Documentary project because he was involved in that project. But do you people actually think that 50 is more powerful than Jimmy Iovine to say "Hey, im gonna get money from every Game project still just because"?! Cmon niggas. Whatever comes outta his mouth people eat it up.

since game was signed to g-unit to break the contract they would obviously have to negotiate a release, same was the lox had to negotiate a way out of bad boy, which involved puffy getting a cut off all of their albums, no doubt 50 negotiated the same deal with game when he was leaving the label
what 50s claiming isnt that far fetched, those sorts of negotiations take place in the real world (for intellectual property rights etc) when you want to leave a global company and they want something out of the deal

1) Dre makes 50% of Game, Than Split it with 50, 50 aint make it from Game, he gets % From Dre.
2)50 is a hoe, he is using Games Promotion and buzz for G unit, he said it himself, he gonna let the buzz roll, than by 24th, he gonna push The Game back, and when fans come to the shop to buy LAX, there will only be G ujnit... Thats how i see the worst case scen. but i dont think tht gonna happen/
Thou, its wrong, everyhting 50 cent has done so far is wrong, he even made wack music, at least make good music, he cant even back it up..
I personally, truly, without a Fear of God, Wish death on 50 cent. I will only have to fear God for what i say, but i really wish that 50 cent died, he has done nothing but bad things, i am sure Game has done bad thigns to g unit too, but he is expendable, and 50 aint. he is such a bitch, i wish somebody could Beat his ass hardcore.

Classic example of a dumb muthafucka eating up everything 50 says.
What about 50 himself? He got 3 albums out (GROTD, TM & Curtis) and he got
Before I Self Destruct and a Greatest Hits CD comin out so what does that mean?
Same thing with Eminem. Dumb muthafucka.

lol you an angry muthafucka... true story though, 50 been fucking me off lately, he know how to amp up shit for record sales though, hopefully he takes an L to game like he did too Kanye hah. cant forget bout nelly too though, homies single seems to be catching on
-
If aynone actually thinks 50 can push his album back don't be so naive. He said the same thing about Styles P, yet he admited couple months later that he was just bullshitting around and he never did that. 50 doesn't have that much control on Interscope, especially since he said "fuck Jimmy Iovine" on that joint and it's not like Game is Ja Rule, that is the only person 50 hates with a passion and if he'd push any album back it would probably be Ja's. About him getting paid off Game it makes sense. Look at Suge and his Death Row artists or Puffy and The Lox. Plus Game never denied it, so who knows.
Point is 50 is just saying this shit for shock value, he knows how to get people talking but in the end Nelly is gonna outsell both Game and G-Unit.

jimmy must be pissed; he already lost a lot of money because this beef.

THE GAME’S L.A.X. IS ALL SET
The Game and 50 Cent are still all set to do battle again on June 24. I keep mentioning the date since it is really playing out like another Kanye West / 50 Cent scene. So, last week there was a rumor that 50 was all set to push The Game back. In fact, I heard 50 claimed he already had done it. I don’t know. Anyway, Game’s people fired back pretty forcefully yesterday that this was categorically incorrect and that The Game was dropping on time. This is April so we’ll see how this pans out. Ahhhhhh…The things that keep Hip-Hop exciting.
Late last night I got this refresher from a source.
Rumor has it that, Interscope isn't too happy with 50 as of lately. He has tried to push Game's album release back to no avail. A staff meeting last week took a listen and discussed Games album L.A.X. and Jimmy Iovine was allegedly impressed. 50 has sought to move the date with threatining phone calls. 50 is upset that they would allow Game to be released on the same day as his G-Unit album.

This better not be one of theose tricks that kanye and curtis used to sell

50 says a lot when the day is long
-
Put these guys in a ring and let them scrap it out one on one. The Game already killed 50 and the G-Unit musically. But 50 keeps on flapping his lips. I'm telling you Don King or someone gotta realize that there would be millions made if the started putting rappers that have beef in the right and let them freestyle battle each other for 3 rounds and then fight each other for 12..lol

real shit
thats crazy tho if hes makin $$$ of games album. game fucked up on the business side

nobody gonna let 50 be so powerful, especially white and jews who own music industry. 50 is pussy- scared of being outsold by his worst enemy.
