This past summer G-Unit Records moved out from under the Interscope umbrella and inked a new deal with EMI, which put out Lloyd Banks’ critically-acclaimed A Hunger For More 2 this fall. Now G-Unit is making moves overseas as they’ve signed a deal with Indepedent label the PIAS Group.
“Last year we took the decision to restructure the label and begin to carve out it’s own world-wide distribution, marketing and promotions strategy, said Nikki Martin, Vice President, G-Unit Records & Entertainment. “After signing with EMI for North America we looked at who could help develop the brand in other key territories and we decided to partner with PIAS who shared our vision and passion for the music.”
50 Cent plans on opening an office in the UK for the marketing and distribution deal with PIAS. Veteran DJ Dan Greenpeace will head up the operation for G-Unit Records overseas.
Dis n*** fiddy #winning.
the last release sold 50k in the first week but they winning
50 has more money than you and your family will make in your whole motherfuckin’ life! So, yeah, he is clearly winnin’!
lil g-unit soldier got madd cuase i was talkin about the general an not kissin his ass
Lil’ G-Unit Soldier got mad cause you only look at the album-sales of H.F.M. 2 (which was under-shipped). You gotta look behind the music too. A 200 million dollar deal for Cheetah Vision is pretty good!
under-shipped?? man stfu again why you talkin bout this man money thats all you lil g-unit fans say when someone diss this wack azz dude
Haha, the homie Fif did it again! Let the haters hate and watch the money pile up!
50 is absolutely winning, he has an independent label where his artist can sale 100k cds which is like gold for an indie. What other labels are doing them numbers now he has a worldwide distribution deal so not only is his artist getting nationwide promo and distr but now worldwide. Thats crazy he’s like an interscope and DefJam now.
damn i rember a couple of years ago they was sellin 1.5 mill but like yall say they winnin
Fif is mos definitely winning. Even if his artists ain’t sellin a milli like he used to, dude still is a businessman and knows wat the fucck he’s doin in order to make cake. #winning
Uh, losing… What’s next? Reggaeton? It’s sad that there are still people out there willing to help fund this crap.
Of course he winning..everyone gna eat by this move, no more bullshit..His artist can do them and not conform becus of sales or media
Though his music isn’t what it used to be like, 50 is definitely still making that dough. if you ask me he’s pretty much financially successful hahaaaaa
Agree.
Agree* after a while it gets senseless trying to talk to these haters. This cat has G-Unit Records here now G-Unit International and G-Note..whats your favorite rapper doing? Kids now and days go listen to Nicki Minaj and GTFOh.
I wonder if Yayo done got himself an ill lil ghost writer
lol
honestly a deal for what. weak demos and fake gangsta rap?
cuz he is pass aftermath, lol! indeed nice to hear the homie making moves now make some hot tracks instead of throwing slight lil jabs at detox
AIN’T NOBODY BUYING HIS SH!T AT HOME SO WHY DO YOU THINK THEY WOULD WANT IT OVER SEAS IS BEYOND ME BUT MORE POWER TO YOU!! smh

IN OTHER WORDS INTERSCOPE SAID G-UNIT AINT SELLING SHIT AND JIMMY KICKED THAT ASS OUT!!!!!
The label sold 156k in their first week sales in the past 2 releases. smh
thats Independent money tho. so 156k two release=$$$$$ money for G-UNIT. Hey its a win. I was I could sell 50,000.
15 FEATURES ON 13 TRACKS!!… Only 2 tracks don’t have features.
When you got 50 spending money on Akon, Swiss beats, loso, Juelz, styles P, pusha T, rae, Justic League, Kanye, ryan leslie, Lloyd, Jeremih and the list goes on it can “never” be called a INDIE ALBUM homie. $500K – 2mil EASY
B.I.S.D (2 dvds) FLOPPED!! “SMH2” Oops, I meant “HFM2″… my bad sport! (15 features!!) Went Double Copper!!!! Yoyo is next…..=====
That nigga just put a DJ Khaled album. lol
15 features on 13 tracks!! That is what I would call a “Now Music” rap CD
if you actually listen to the cd all the features fit in well and Banks lyrically ripped every song on his album. How his cd did the numbers it did is beyond me should have atleast went gold even in this internet leaking era
banks flopped because he is wack!!! its you own fought your shit aint selling!!
If 50 made $100 million from Vitamin Water and he is still worth $100 million then where is the rap & movie money?????
EASY!!! HE AIN’T MADE SHIT WHEN IT COMES TO MUSIC & MOVIES!!!
IDIOT!!!!!!!! YOU’RE ABOUT THE BIGGEST HATER I’VE SEEN ON DX! YOU REALLY THINK HE HASN’T MADE ANY MONEY OR DO YOUR DUMB ASS WISH HE HASN’T! YOU’RE A REAL DUMBASSSSSSS! GO SIT DOWN………

Interscope & The Game says goodbye!!!!
50 Cent & G-Unit #WINNING
Start subtracting the price tag for all of those Hunger 2 guest appearances, remembering too that EMI still wants their cut for the 1 or 2 videos you did, and/or other project related expenses. The only indie rappers who win are like Daz, who release multiple albums/year, and who have no big names on their songs.
Cats quick to say some crap like G-Unit fell off, G-Unit aint selling but if 50 offered any of you haters a deal you’ld jump out the window..Ron Brows ass niggas.
Yall are dumb as hell you know it only cost 50 265,000 to make hfm2 right. Gunit is an independent label independent with this move they are just like interscope record, and Def Jam. You know 50 got that money back for hfm2 with the single for beamer benz, bentley right. Thats around 750,000 sold on itunes dumbass niggas. Yall niggas think local this nigga is world wide now when he start selling records all that money gonna be coming to him. When he was selling all them records before he was making interscope money he made the majority of his money outside of rap with business deals. Hating dumbass niggas talk shit and don’t even have facts or know what they talking about. Yall niggas favorite artist are slaves and make some white dude rich 50 a boss nigga he making moves others rappers can’t and them niggas getting most of they money taken from them by these crackers, step your business game up and own your shit nigga. Damn peasants.
Do you clowns understand that all this money is going to be going to 50 now his label is setup just like def jam and interscope, You know first week sales they only tell you us sales they never tell you world wide sales, then you have royalties, masters, publishing that they make off of a song getting played on the radio or for you even watching the video of a song. It only cost 265,000 to make lloyd banks last CD. They got that back with Beamer benz, bentley, that song is 750,000 on itunes worldwide. That cd was only released in america and undershipped now with this deal their cd’s will be released worldwide. So you got Itunes, royalties, publishing, masters, and your cd’s being released worldwide nigga Gunit gonna be caking all this is coming to them, your favoeite artist is a slave and is making some white man rich, they getting most of they money taken from them, step your business game up and own your shit nigga, Damn peasants GGGGGGGGGGunit!!!!!
