Kanye West, 50 Cent Go Head To Head

Kanye West Keeps His Album Release Date.

Kanye West is refusing to change the release date of his new album "Graduation", despite it clashing with the launch of 50 Cent’s latest disc - because he wants to go head to head with the rapper. West initially planned to release his third album Graduation on August 21st, to avoid a sales war with 50 Cent’s new disc Curtis.

However West and 50 - real name Curtis Jackson - will release their albums simultaneously on September 11th. He tells MTV, "The date, Graduation, September 11, we ain’t moving. I’d rather come out on a day like that, up against 50 - where people are excited about going to the stores and it’s an event and people talk about it - and be number two on that day, rather than come out and be number one on a day nobody cares about."

"It’s about things going down in history. It’s not that much exciting stuff in hip-hop right now. I think people are going to make it more than what I’m making it myself."

Kanye’s first 2 singles out rate 50’s first 2(I think everyone agrees wit dat !), but 50 is bringing the heat wit "Ayo Technology" and "I Get Money"

Of coarse both of these rappers have skills and they shouldn’t beef it’s just history repeating itself once again. It’s to many homless people in this world and to much killing in this world then to be focused on when the next man is coming out with a cd on the same day just squash tha beef and continue to make good music and money you don’t have to prove anything to anyone but your fans we are the ones that buy the cds !!!!! miss trina
