Kanye Outsells 50 Cents

Kanye West beat 50 Cent in their battle to get the most sales during the first week of their new releases.

West’s 'Graduation' sold 957,000 copies while 'Curtis' by 50 Cent sold 691,000 copies, according to Nielesn Soudscan.

Kanye may have won but I'm sure this 'battle' has helped them both shift a few more copies than usual.

Both rappers released their albums on 9/11 in the US.

50 Cent Accuses Def Jam Of Rigging

50 Cent has accused record label Def Jam of 'rigging' sales for Kanye West's latest album after the pair battled it out for top spot.

West's album Graduation beat 50 Cent's album Curtis at the weekend, following the pair's ongoing feud.

Before the albums were released, 50 - real name Curtis Jackson - claimed that he would not release any more solo albums if he was beaten by his rival.

But now Kanye has topped the album charts ahead of him, Jackson has insisted that Def Jam must have doctored the sales figures.

He said, "He's never had a fraction of the sales 50 Cent has. They could have one scan and have it count four times."

"West's entire career hasn't sold half what I sold on my first album".

Kanye Beating 50 Cent

Kanye West is currently outselling 50 Cent.

Kanye’s new album Graduation shifted 431,000 copies on its day of release in the US, compared to only 310,000 copies of 50 Cent's latest album, Curtis.

50 Cent said he will not release any more solo albums if Kanye sells more than him.

Kanye West Angry: Caught On Tape

Note To Kanye: Never Say Never

Kanye West was nominated for five awards at the MTV VMAs, but he left empty handed.
Okay, I know he should have won at least one award, but you don't complain about it like a sore loser.

Aparently after the show in Las Vegas, Kanye said "That's two years in a row, man...give a black man a chance. I'm trying hard, man, I have the...number one record, man."

According to AP, Kanye also claimed that he will "never return to MTV" because of the losses.

Kanye's £2000 Takeaway

Kanye West has ordered a £2,000 takeaway from a restaurant in south Wales to be delivered to him in New York - along with the chef, reports BBC.

The British Raj restaurant said it is preparing a rare five foot long Ayre fish for the rapper and his entourage.

The food and head chef Kaysor Ahmed will be flown by helicopter to Heathrow [London] on Tuesday before flying to New York.

Mr Ahmed's trip will last two days before he flies back to the UK.

Mr Ahmed said they were charging £2,000 because of the special circumstances. The record company will be paying for the transport.

Restaurant manager Masud Ahmed said his staff were "very nervous".
