Title: Does 50 Actually Think Gunit Group Album Will Outsell Game 3rd Album?
Post by: Lunatic on April 21, 2008, 02:26:22 PM
I mean I know will probably get a lot of biased opinions just for this being the west coast section and it has plenty gunit haters. But me personally I am a fan of both camps and own all albums and I don't see how the fuck 50 thinks TOS can outsell LAX or whatever its called now lol..I see the GUnit group album pushing Banks/Buck #s, MAYBE a bit better. No more than 170K first week and 500K total USA. Game should push 200K first week and 700K at least in USA.

what do y'all think? Remember Banks/Buck last solo's pushed like 140-150K first week and did NOT go gold, can 50s inclusion make THAT much of a difference?

G-Unit will outsell Game. G-Unit has a bigger fanbase. BUT if they promote the shit like the Kanye vs 50 thing then Game will win because then he'll be the underdog. I think Game will have a better album though.

It's impossible to measure a fan base because no one buys albums. More of Game's fanbase will go buy the album, then G-Unit's fans buying their album. And also this whole Buck thing won't help, a Buck Banks and 50 album would have a better chance at outselling Game since BFM sold like 2 million copies in the US.

Either way, I'd bet Game or G-Unit will get pushed back. We haven't seen any singles or videos yet. Really, whoever has the best single, will probably sell more long term. If 50 can get the single in the billboard top 10, and people actually like it, they'll sell.

No one should be betting against either album. As rap fans we should hope both sell very well. The reason rappers can't get album deals are sales, and they need big names like 50 or Game to change that.

Well, it's GUnit as a group versus Game as an individual, so it's safe to say Game will sell more. Not by much though, they'll probably all do around 200-300 1st week and end platinum or near platinum.

Game vs 50 or BWS vs G-Unit would be more realistic.

It's gonna be interesting though Nelly, Game and G-Unit on the same day you know that 50 and Game are gonna milk it like crazy. Plus Busta, Usher, Ne-Yo, Wayne, Nas... are all scheduled to drop in June.

Inst this a bit speculatory don't you think??
Who knows what's going in the mind of 50!..
So to answer your question, i don't think so..
but ti would be hilarious if it does...
What's even more hilarious would be the fact that I'll probably buy both albums!

lol what do you think? if 50 cent can only outsell his solo album to games solo album by 200k then what chance does he have of outselling him those two fools banks and tony by his side?? the g unit album will be lucky to break 200k first week and i can see game doing somewhere near 350k+ again

They say June 24th is a special day, business wise thats why so many wanna drop that day.

But like other dude say, a group vs 1 individual.

But G-Unit will outsell Game Imo.


Ps. Games track with Keyshia Cole is #185 on the charts after 3 days

Nelly will flop, his shit is worse than ringtone now, it aint 2002 anymore, Usher will target different fanbase, G unit will flop selling stupid numbers, Game will get psuhed back.

^^i'm not sure Nelly will flop, his single, can't recall the name was pretty 'Meh' but his Collabo with Fergie, was pretty heated!!
So if anything, it does show that dude can actually drop something  worth listening!

Game will not get pushed back, well hopefully not, i want him drop his album round  about that same time..but knowing Industry politics he'll get pushed back, or G-Unit's album will get pushed back too..
