The king of rap returns with Curtis
On the same day as Kanye West, another heavyweight in Universal Music Group’s stable of hip-hop artists let loose a new album: Curtis , in record stores on September 11, is 50 Cent’s third release on the Aftermath label. This new album of authentic, no-frills, uncompromising rap from 50 Cent (whose real name is Curtis Jackson) includes guest appearances by some of the biggest names in the business, from Eminem to Dr. Dre and Timbaland.
Curtis has already racked up sales of nearly 2 million in less than a week and appears on track to match the records set by 50 Cent’s previous albums, Get Rich or Die Tryin’, which sold 11 million copies and became the top-selling record of 2003, and The Massacre , released in 2005 with sales of nearly 8 million.

Damn thats good, but how are Kanyes world wide sales?

http://www.vivendi.com/corp/en/home/week.php
vivendi owns both def jam and interscope so it has to be legit...
Dats a good question.
LISTEN 2 DIS DER BOTH SHIT BT CURTIS IS A LIL SNITCH GANG BT YACH IS A BIATCH AINT EVER SEEN A BRICK IN HIS LIFE OR EVEN STIKED A PRICK WID A NIFE
2nd bitchess!!!
Dumb Fuck, I love your name nut u just a dumb fuck, y u got to go wasting time and space on the page just to write second?
n how is dat li;l waste man gna nmae his self afta 50 fedz pigz
^^^^^another g-unit bitch, sayin second, stfu get d fuk outa here.
homie,idk if i'm just out of the loop, but wtf does it matter is someone is 1st or 2nd?..do they get a free cd or a cash prize?..holla
he mad cuz he aint get second lmaooo
This must mean that Kanye's are larger than that. He beat 50 worldwide and has the #1 spot on Billboard and SoundScan. They are saying that Kanye sold 957,000 in just the US. While Curtis sold 691,000 units here.
i dont know about billboard but soundscan only tracks sales of music and music video products throughout the United States and Canada not worldwide
How many Rumors is y'all gonna post up about these 2 albums??
Just like 2 days ago, y'all was saying kanye killin 50 in the US and UK. 2 days later apparently 50's winning. God!!
Please slow up on the Rumors about these 2 guys & come with some Hard Facts.
dis shit iz false news
i cosign
its a rumour ppl, 2mill in a week? u serious his not tupac nor bigger lol, FALSE
and if he did........all i gotta say is damn 50.
Cosign. When wus the last time a artist sold 2mill n a week?
its a fact, research before u doubt anything. Visit the vivendi website. Also, 50 cent is known more worldwide than Kanye West so not only is it possible, its also true. Did u hear that his album was the #1 in like 7 countries? What makes you think it is impossible for his pushing 2 mill in a week?
andreagalinsky is right, if he got tha #1 spot in 7 countries, so its logical that this nigga sold 2 million records that first fuckin week
clearly this shit says "RUMOR"....aint no way in hell anybody could do that....plus nobody fukkin likes 50...he's fukkin asshole...
and if he did sell 2 million in 1 week...... 50 is no where near the best rapper... but he the best money maker rapper there is
you clearly must be gay to say comments like that ...lil faget hang yaself nohomo
You cant beat 50 cent worldwide.... fuck kanye west pinkass nigga
ITS OVER I NEW IT 50 NO1 PERIOD
cosign...I always knew he ws gonna sell more worldwide cos of his buzz in a lot of countries. Kanye West is not as known worldwide as 50!
Is it really that unlikely that he has sold 2mil worldwide? If he sold 700k in the US, why would he not able to sell 1.3mil in the rest of the world? He is bigger in the rest of the world than in the US.
this is not rumor unversial posted this
I was talking about the ppl above doubting that he sold 2mil, i myself dont doubt that he did. 2 mil sounds reasonable.
JOKESTA POSTED IT U DICK....NOT UNIVERSAL.....50 IS 2ND....DEAL WITH IT. KANYE ALLDAY BITCHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!hahahahahahha!!!!! IT'S THE ROC!!!!
GET BOTH KANYE & 50 ALBUMS FOR $4 FROM RAWTUNES.BIZ

and def jam was buyin all kanye cds to keep up with 50 lol kanye only had the uk u act like thats the only place in the world that buys cds niggas 50 won
dis is rumors...so why is it posted in the rumor section and why its not on the billboard magazine or sme other shit
this is on unversial main site dumbass this is not rumor
THIS IS BOUGUS
Nah bruh dude got his facts right
fter September 11, we knew there would be no losers, but we do have a winner in Kanye West. Kanye scored 930,000 units sold. 50 Cent raked in 660,000 and that is nothing to sneeze at, haters. The country dude came in No. 3 and he pushed a cool 400K.
And you were partially right when u said ITS OVER.
what da deal first kanye was winning now 50 winning i dont know what to believe
no knaye won the first week battle in the states but 50 is winning worldwide
yo 50 aint did 2 million worldwide!
He didnt even win UK...lol
So i guess Ye did 4 million worldwide too huh! lol

All fake,but if they counted bootlegs and downloads,curtis would be on top.
curtis is a better cd then graduation PERIOD. fuck the numbers
Co-Sign
All fake,but if they counted bootlegs and downloads,curtis would be on top.
Yeah, I'm sure there are Coalitions and Guilds out there, whereby people who violate the intellectual property laws and illegally bootleg and download music keep a tally of the number of times they "stole" the music. Maybe if we asked them to turn their numbers over, then we could get a more accurate reading of which album truly sold more. Do you really realize how dumb a statement that was? Besides, 50 Cent said that there was bootlegging and illegal dowloading during his first 2 albums, but that the people will pay the retailers to get an original copy. So how does that figure into things?
curtis is a better cd then graduation PERIOD. fuck the numbers
That maybe true, or just your opinion, but in any case, fuck you! Cause the numbers are real and do mean something, your opinion doesn't.
wtf you talking about,for every graduation link there was 10 curtis links on the internet,that album was one of the most anticipated and leaked ever.And you don't know the shit you chatting,posting a link ain;t against the law,the torrent sites and all that shit is legal,so they can keep counters,and guess what,they do keep counters.
you just mad cos you went and copped curtis and spent all your pocket money on a average cd.
u CURTIS fans come up with 5 words to describe 50 cd
or better yet...BRING 6 FAMOUS BARS FROM THAT BULLSHYT!!!
I WILL BE WAITING!!!!!!
Curtis CD is way better than Ye shit
Curtis is way better than graduation, cuz in the rest of the world people don't pay attention to 50' beefs they buy the album cuz they like the album, in the USA they wont buy the album just because they like fat joe or the game. Let's keep it real, it's their beef not ours
AHAHAAAAAAAAAA NIKKAZ IS MAD 50 ALBUM IS BETTER NA MEAN
They both to me is kinda on some bullshit. Kanye shit to me is for them backpacking nerds, and fifty and that love making shit like follow my lead is trash.
u know u didnt listen to either album...
yall sum faggots suckin balls wit shit in yo mouth n all that type of poop in ur bum.
words from a real guy
you mean words from a real gay..
50 and kanye shit go hard. But I don't think Kanye West is a big artist overseas. 50 is always over there. I don't know, kanye did out sell'em the 1st week by 200,000.
man go on billboard site kayne sold 960 something fifty 600 something... kaynes big worldwide lol hes played in australia non stop
for u idiots sayin this is a rumor and false, the source is from the vivendi website on the news bulletin section, therefore, not false.
aint no excuse...FOLLOW ME
Ye cd leaked 1st
50 had over 6 songs out for his album with 5 videos
Better promotion
Ye had 2 songs 2 videos
50 had the grimey beatz to Ye OWN production
ITS NO EXCUSE TO SAY WHY 50 LOST!
Stop that Def Jam bought copies and shyt!
HE KILLED HIM SINCE DAY ONE!
BOTTOM LINE...YE ALBUMS IS COMPLETELY WAY BETTER THAN CURTIS!
if u notice...50 never touched ANY IMPORTANT SUBJECT OF LIFE PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The massacre and Grodt did from time to time!
CURTIS IS CLOSE TO THE WACKEST CD I HEARD ALL YEAR!

You fool, if you aren't paying a fee to download the music from the site who bought a license to sell the muusic via download, then the shit is fucking illegal, jackass! All of those fucking peer-to-peer sites are illegal. Not to mention you used the words "bootlegs" "downloads", and "leaks". Do you know what those word mean?
you just mad cos you went and copped curtis and spent all your pocket money on a average cd.
Why would I have to be mad cause I spent all my pocket change on an average cd, when like you said, there are a lot more sites on the internet where I could download the shit from for free? Not to mention that I was one of the first people to post on here that I heard the entire album and got it from a site.
This is way too easy, it like when you use your little brother's own hands to hit himself.
yo mutt..no lie ima downloading azz nygga BUT every cd aint worth ya money!
I dont care if its 9.99...I download...listen and buy only to support my unit like voting for mayor or presidents...lol
I bout about 12 cds this year! Its almost a new year and for hip hop...THATS PITIFUL! lol

United States and United Kingdom!
So worldwide WHERE 50 sold more at then??
If thats so true...YE HAD TO SELL MORE WORLDWIDE TOO! its common sense!
