Fifty Cent: I'll Quit if Kanye Wins

Rapper/human target Fifty Cent swears that if he loses his upcoming chart-busting battle with Kanye West, he'll stop releasing solo records. Mr. Half-dollar is going head-to-head with West over whose album will sell more on their shared release date -- September 11.

The gangsta rapper and his "Stronger" competitor, Kanye, are both releasing albums on the fateful day. Never forget the day when two overblown hip-hop artists' egos exploded across the charts!

"If Kanye West sells more records than 50 Cent on September 11, I'll no longer write music. I'll write music and work with my other artists, but I won't put out any more solo albums," Fitty told sohh.com. Let's hope!

"And I bet this," Fitty twittered in the third person, "When Kanye West's sales come in, he's gonna have a 70 percent decrease cause Def Jam is gonna buy records to keep him closer to 50 Cent. So watch the first week and then watch the second week. Watch his ass drop off the planet. We keep our angles covered before we make a decent bet."

62. I can't believe I am going to do this, but I am going to purchase the Kanye West album when it "drops" and then I am going to drop it in the nearest trash can.
I think everybody should do the same, just to get rid of Filthy noSense.

63. all a publicity stunt....50 wrote some songs for kanye not too long ago....they're just trying to hype eachother's albums...pathetic. Kanye's a hypocrit. Anybody that accuses someone of not liking black people, but then uses the "n word" everyother sentence, is an idiot. if he looked up the definition, it means "cheap labor". 50 cent is illiterat. also, you cant come up with a hit after only 2 albums...??? eek

66. Both of them should put on their big boy undies and grow the F*** up. Neither one of them is half as good as he he thinks he is. They're both egotistical douchebags.

67. just for spurs...go back and do some more research you still sound ignorant...

Music is an art form consisting of sound and silence expressed through time. Elements of sound as used in music are pitch (including melody and harmony), rhythm (including tempo and meter), and sonic qualities of timbre, articulation, dynamics, and texture.

The creation, performance, significance and even the definition of music, varies according to culture and social context. Music ranges from strictly organized compositions and performances to improvisational or aleatoric forms. For purposes of discussion and exploration of the topic, music is divided into genres and sub-genres, although the dividing lines and relationships between music genres are often unclear and/or controversial. Within "the arts", music can be classified as a performing art, a fine art, or an auditory art form.

Music may also involve generative forms in time through the construction of patterns and combinations of natural stimuli, principally sound. Music may be used for artistic or aesthetic, communicative, entertainment, ceremonial or religious purposes and by many composers purely as an academic instrument for study.

69. I think fifty realized his career was going no where and sees Kanye as a way to get out of making anymore recors cause he knows Kanye will win. And since when has speaking your mind about what important subjects been see as racist?

70. Who cares if Kanye is racist! Everyone is racist and prejudice to an extent. If you haven't found some one of a particular race to press your buttons, You Will!! Ima call out Rock & Roll and Spurs...Both of you ARE COMPLETE RETARDS and RACIST PRICKS!! Hip Hop is music some people like it some people don't but for you say it is not music is a load of crap. And your precious Rock music originated from Blacks! Read some history. The people who created rap Were smart enough to create Rock which I also agree is good music too. And you obviously don't listen to enough rap music because there are many artist that use musical instuments out there so until you do your own research keep your DAMN MOUTH SHUT!!

71. I thn anye is going to own, sorry this is a little late in the day, but still, I think 50 might be trying to get more people to buy his album, by aying he'll quit. W/e I'm not much of a rap fan, but I love stronger, at last for the first to minutes, but 50 cents typeof rap is loosing it self, so what ever, it is going to break records any way. so w/e more music more life.

My only comlant is that this is 9/11, the day that the most aount of Americans died. The day that started this war on terror. We should be be giving our respect to New York, and all the men and women who died, and he police and Firefighters on this day.

God Bless America

72. Fifty-Cent has nothing on Kanye West. There is no competition. I'm a fan of Kanye. He is very creative and his music has substance. Fifty-cent has tight beats but he don't have a message. Everything is about money, bling, and females. If you have a brain you will see that Kanye West is way better. You can relate to his music. Hands down Kanye is way better than Fifty. They should not even be compared.

73. man fifty already backed out of it. I heard that he just did it to help out West's record sales. 50 is wack. So not a man of his word. Atleast with West you know that he's all about himself.
