So what does everyone think of 50 cent going back on his promise to retire?

Question

Quoted from billboard.com

"50 Cent had claimed he would retire from making solo albums if West won the sales battle, but in an interview with Billboard, he maintains the race is still early and there is no concrete winner just yet.

"[The sales] can't be considered [any one way] anyway because it's just a few days out," he says. "I guess [the music industry] would consider me to be a hip-hop favorite because of my sales history, and people like to root for the underdog."

50 Cent also changed his tune yesterday (Sept. 13) about his threat to stop rapping. On New York's Hot 97 radio station, 50 said if West outsells him he would instead go round for round, matching G-Unit releases with Def Jam's."


So now he is saying he isn't going to quit..... seems kinda like a punk out to me.

Answer 2

properly he form of threw in how, he can nonetheless record with different artists.He purely pronounced he won't record any solo artwork.So...after Kanye sells extra archives which i think of he will.. we can all nonetheless be compelled to hearken to music by one artist "featuring 50 cent". Kanye's new record seems extra groundvbreaking and experimental the place as 50 cents would be a similar form of stuff he's often achieved bragging approximately his bling and for dancing interior the club.

Answer 3

This is exactly as I thought it would turn out. As a former entertainer, I am aware of many efforts such as this that the record company labels and the management teams come up with in order to promote records and stir up excitement among the buyers. If you look at the two artists - their sales have not been over-the-top lately. True, they have established themselves as heavy-weights, but in this industry - you are only as good as your last hit! They always have to come up with more and more schemes in order to intice the public - particularly the young buyers.

Oh well.....

Answer 4

Who cares, didn't Jay Z retire and come back. Rock stars retire for like 30 years and put and album out when their 70. When that's your job it's hard to stay away.

Answer 5

i think another famous rapper *Jay-Z* also promised to retire and came back (not surprisingly), so I don't think people are taking 50 Cent seriously about retiring in the first place..

Answer 6

He showed his lack of integrity by lying. Anyone who brings up Jay-Z fails to mention that he retired voluntarily. He did not risk his career to sell more records. He just couldn't stay away.

Answer 7

50 is basicaly already done with his next album " untill i self destruct " or something like that, after that album he already said he's done, so who knows maybe when that next album drops the album sales of curtis will be more that that kanye south guys record sales

Answer 8

He's not going to quit because Kanye cheated and used Jay-Z to help promote his album and the VMA's allowed Kanye to perform all of his songs and 50 only performed 1.

Answer 9

i love some of his song s
i think that was a good choice
50 cent cant make money without selling his records and doing other stufff

Answer 10

Who really cares. Kanye Wins, 50's still better. He said he was just doin it for fun. He doesn't care, he's not quitting. 50s Better
