People underestimate how Clever the 50 Kanye Sales battle was.

[raoulduke187]

no, 50 was drunk from success at the time, he wanted to instigate a beef with the currently trending metrosexual rapper and thought he could beat him easily to get some buzz

then it backfired

 

[BK The Great]

Kanye came out with a better album, that's why he out throned 50.

 

[Express]

50 was my fav artist at the time
Curtis the album.....i try to forget that happened

 

[Young/Nacho\Drawz]

50s with inter scope

Our Labels & Brands - UMG
Def Jam and Interscope are both under Universal's umbrella and were doing that time this went down. Universal is the real winner here.

I'm a 50 stan but 50 was 2 times bigger than Kanye at the moment it was the right time for a shift of music
