I don;t get it this album by 50 Cent that is goin to be released in September was supposed to be out this past May 10th however the first single off of it didn;t do so well so I guess 50 decided that the album in May that he was going release in May wasn't going to work due to the failed 1st single that didn't do too hot on the radio. As far as 50 releasing an album as the same day as Kanye's well its a good plan at least it creates some kinda hype surrounding 50's release the same hype that he wasn't getting in May ands it makes sense too because 50 and Kanye both hit big in 2003 with their debut releases.

True.  Kanye West actually has a hit single this year, whereas 50 Cent has got an album thats been delayed a few times with no hit single in sight.

To be honest, I do like Kanye West's music.  Hes one of the few mainstream rappers that DOESN'T spend every song rapping about how rich they are.  He just seriously needs to fix his personality.  Good musician, bad personality.

OK, but if he's gonna quit, he should quit big time.  I don't want to see him standing around looking dumb like Snoop Dogg.  He should quit ODB style!

I don't think anybody really cares about 50 Cent anymore, I know I don't. Hopefully, his 15 minutes of fame ended with 2005.

At least 50 Cent can look forward to having an extremely long thread on "Playful Penguins" in his name.

Yeah, that was a low point for him.  His star will soon (hopefully) fade

I don't think '50 Cent' is the man he used to be. Well, that's my '5 cents worth'.  :P :D

Hey ...  I've just chipped in 5 cents to his cause ... now  I count 12 different people  preceding me ... who've done the same.

That means he can re-launch his career as 65 cents!  :D ;D :D
