50 Cent has taken his (somewhat one-sided, as far as we can tell) feud with Kanye West to another level: if 
Graduation outsells 
Curtis on September 11th (the day they both come out in stores), then 50 Cent is going to 
stop making albums. 
We see a flaw with 50's plan. It seems to us that Kanye has more pull these days with the ... shall we say 
crossover audience: he's recently worked with 
Daft Punk, 
Will Oldham, and 
Peter, Bjorn, and John. 
50's actions strike us as those of a desperate man. He seems to be putting a lot of pressure on himself with this album. He's already released 
five singles from it, and already has gotten 
pissed at his label because some 
videos have leaked to the internet. Wait until he finds out that quite a few people are just going to 
download both albums instead of buying them.
