Well there was news from GUnitworld.com today that 50's next album will be coming out in June 04. I couldnt copy n paste the article for some reason, and Im not going to write the whole thing out.
Basically it just said that his album "GRODT" is still selling 40,000 a week and is well over 6x Platinum now, and after Banks drops in March, 50's is dropping another album.

maybe world wide..not in the states though
Bank's album is gonna be dope 8)

50's gonna lose his hype soon. I think he's gonna be just like Ja Rule.
-
Don't think it's hype anymore homie...
People are feeling 50's music like it was early 90's again.
That's impact homie...
ImO
Would be dope if 50 kept his collabo's to almost none.
I figure with his G-Unit lp & his recent collabo's with various artist's,
Peep's are prob tired of his guest shot's and wanna hear some solo 50 shitt!!
(that's how I feel)
1 or 2 spot's at the most....(Not Obie or Snoop)
come on 50.....lol
And of course the required (Manditory by Shady/Aftermath) Eminem spot..... ;D
J/K
Either way it's gonna be the biggest seller in 04' aswell. ;)

I will have to disappoint you there.
6-7x platinum and near 10 mill. worldwide = Made man
Every 50-album from now on will go at least 3x platinum.
50's hitmaking talent + Dre's production/experience + Em's hype machine = XX Platinum
-
^^ I disagree with you 2 but it's all good. We all have different opinions. We'll see how it all unfolds.

I doubt 50 will make it to June 2004

Word Jome, 50's def. got all the ingredients for success.

^He really do.

lol..im thinking that too...but i hope he does make it too june 2004! cuz i wanna hear another track like "heat" 8)

I highly doubt 50 will lose his "hype". I said it on another MB when "GRODT" first came out: IMO 50 will be almost as big/influential in the rap game as Pac and Biggie were. I'm mos def anticipating the release of this.
-
are you guys really feeling this guy? I mean wtf has this world come too.
-
IMO 50 will be almost as big/influential in the rap game as Pac and Biggie were.
I disagree with big/influential as....
their style made him....like a baby boy.
In no way can 50 ever touch that, even if he sells 50 mill....lol
it's alredy engraved in concrete.
Pac & B.I.G. "FOREVER"
no rapper from either Ny/CA will ever get that back...
it's locke'd

Well yeah, that's why I said "almost". But he has a grip of similarities with both Pac/Big.
Anyways, for those of you wondering, in my Lloyd Banks "Mo' Money In The Bank" mixtape insert it sais 50's "GRODT" is almost at 10 mil worldwide.

50's definately got all he needs for success right where he is. He's got a major label backing him up and several connections to other power figures, like Snoop and P.Diddy - to me it's quite surprising that we haven't heard a 50/Puffy collabo yet, especially since Puffy's love for the man is obvious.
But what comes to Buck's prediction of 1.5 mil for G-unit in its first week - not gonna happen. Sure, it's gonna push major units since now the audience knows what 50 and G-unit are all about and how talented they all are, but 1.5 mil in its first week? C'mon! ::) 50 sold unusually lot in his first week since EVERYBODY was SO hyped about him and his album. The hype G-unit has compared to what 50 had is almost nonexistant in my eyes, at least for now...

I'd agree, but then again if it ends up being marketed as equivalent to a new 50 album, that would be a different story in my eyes. Plaster 50 predominantly on the cover and posters, add a sticker to the front of the CD saying "The Shady debut of 50 Cent's crew..." and maybe a million a week isn't so out of the question...? time will tell.

Yeah, that's like the perfect combination.
