Kanye VS 50
July 23rd, 2007
It’s a battle of the rap moguls! Kanye West is out for 50 Cent!
Well… not really. Kanye’s new album ‘Graduation’ has just been delayed in its release to September 11th. And yes, that is the same day that 50’s new record ‘Curtis’ will drop.
The two rappers have had a rivalry going for a while. Kanye actually made a pretty conniving move because he is most likely to outsell 50, thus giving him more points in their bout. Even if he doesn’t sell more albums, Kanye wouldn’t be humiliated because 50 is ‘expected’ to sell more.
50’s camp would most likely leak his album to push the release by about a week earlier just so it doesn’t drop the same day as Kanye’s.
