I was listening to Tim Westwood radio show in the Uk and he played both albums song for song and the fan reaction was a landslide "CURTIS." Some Kanye fan even called in and said she'd buy Kanye because its relaxing and helps her when shes cleaning up the house LOL!

Listen to the show:

It's true tho, they're both completely different albums, one is relaxing and the other is up beat and hyped, you could proly listen to Kanye's cd more than you could Curtis, more occasions so to speak, they're both good albums tho.

propzzzz A lot of people have no clue at just how much 50 is popular over in Europe. He is probably easily the 2nd most popular and succesful rapper in Europe behind Eminem and one of the few rappers that sells a lot of records in Europe. You will hear people and club's in The UK, France, Czech Republic, Germany and Russia play 50 Cent but you will barely hear any Jay-Z, a little Outkast and Nas maybe, but certainly no Cam'Ron, Lil Wayne, etc. Wu Tang is still real big in Europe to and to be honest Kanye West is getting a lot of attention now but no on 50's level

CBCBCB · 09-04-2007, 02:44 AM

Lol Of Course She Would Buy Kanye's Cd.she's On Of His Fans.

robby84 · 09-04-2007, 03:07 AM

i'm not surprise...fif has a big fan base overseas....he will win overseas sells

and as for usa sells i think he will win but it will be close,,,,

jondoejondoe195 · 09-04-2007, 03:19 AM

This is why 50 will sell more than Kanye.... his fan base outside of the US.... and not only Europe but Africa and Asia as well.... I heard that GRODT (or TM forget which one) sold over 2 million copies in India alone!!! Thats almost as much as either one of kanyes! 50 sells more outside of the US than anyone in hip hop other than maybe eminem!

LAKERS_520 · 09-04-2007, 03:28 AM

At 1st I couldnt stand Graduation but it kinda grew on me but I still think Curtis is the better album regardless of what a couple fans think there still gonna both do some BIG numbers

elyuri23 · 09-04-2007, 03:41 AM

thats wazzup, the people dont lie, its 50 all day baby, cop curtis, 9/11.

same2step · 09-04-2007, 03:46 AM

yeah his shit is better honestly, you could get some people that don't know shit about neither of them and I am sure they would enjoy 50 shit more to me he has better beats suprisingly and just better songs, I think the songs wit Akon and Mary J is better then any of his singles already released shit he might as well make videos for every song on his album again, Kanye on some weird shit with this album dat track with Mos Def sound like they was just fuckin around in the studio I like that track though not sure about that next single with T-Pain I'm not feelin dat track yet but it might grow on me

Kanye could win week one but 50 album just like Akons and Fergies might be in the Top 10 for a long time hope they both do well though

Viktor Vaughn · 09-04-2007, 03:52 AM

loll fuck im buying both

Lyrikcha · 09-04-2007, 07:46 AM

im buyin 50's no doubt...kanye's baptist rap aint worth it

..: Hunter :.. · 09-04-2007, 08:19 AM

Well I'm overseas and can honestly say 50 doesn't have a great buzz over here. Kanye West is probably the artist on everyone's lips right now, and possibly Neyo.

In fact: On the Australian Urban Charts today, "The Massacre" is number 20,T-Pain is number 19. Kelly Rowland, NeYo, Common, and TI are all below the Massacre.

Also...GRODT is number 29...above B-Day, Press Play, and THE EVOLUTION OF ROBIN THICKE.

50 is a beast overseas

WAIST_DEEP · 09-04-2007, 10:29 AM

ive been sayin this for ages,kanye could destroy 50 even for a month,but then fifs consistancy and fanbase will make him win,he sells everywhere
