50 Cent Bets His Career On “Curtis” Outselling Ye’s “Graduation” In Unearthed Footage
50 Cent said he wouldn’t “put out any more solo albums” if Kanye West’s “Graduation” outsold “Curtis.”
The most shocking part of the interview is that he bet his whole career that he would outsell Kanye West in his first week.
“They’d like to see Kanye West give me a problem because I’ve worked myself into a space where I’ve become the favorite,” 50 Cent continued. “Everybody roots for the underdog when he goes against the favorite, but let’s raise the stakes. If Kanye West sells more records than 50 Cent on Sept. 11, I’ll no longer write music.”
He clarified, “I won’t put out any more solo albums.”
Despite falling 266,000 units short of Kanye’s 957,000, 50 Cent still went onto drop Before I Self Destruct a few years later and Animal Ambition in 2014.
