Kanye Crushes 50

A new hope has arise for the suffering sales of the music industry. Kanye West went head to head with 50 Cent last week with the release of his album entitled Graduation that sold 957,000 units which is the biggest sales debut in 2 years, outselling the latest release from 50 Cent with the album Curtis that sold 691,000. Compared to his last album The Massacre (2005) which sold 1.14 units. With the battle of album sales it is clear that Kanye crushes 50 Cent.

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.
