Wednesday, September 24th, 2008
E ‘past one year since the exit of contemporary album “Graduation” by Kanye West and Curtis “50 Cent had to light a challenge to the sound of copies sold, where, he had even declared that withdraw from the scene where Kanye had sold more discs him in the first week. The “battle” won the Kanye selling more than 1,100,000 copies worldwide in the first week (against the more than 900,000 of 50 Cent, as Mediatraffic) of which 957,000 in USA (691,000 against 50 Cent, since SoundScan).
To date, the situation has not changed, in fact, Graduation in the world has sold over 3 million copies, while 50 Cent lagging share to reach 2.5 million (estimate worldwidealbums) resulting in a flop pretty obvious compared to previous work.
