25k singles, thats not too bad for 50. Pharrell 370k sold and 3x platinum is insane, that song is terribly gay.
Yo my hommie Curtis doing mad numbers on the chart. I told yall once he left interscope his record sales gonna jump off the roof. I told ya right!?. Hommie gonna do GRODT numbers for his up coming album. He already doing “In the Club” number for the singles released so far. Yo G-Unit is back yall.
obvious sarcasm

25k with 0 Promo is not bad. I think Pilot sold even more.
and next Week the Single SMOKE with Trey Songz can sell even more than Pilot.
50 FLOP
you know 50 paid for 10k of those..no ones paying for those shitty flop songs.
Another proof ja rule killed 50, dude’s floppin hard
how many singles did ja rule sell last week?
50’s old songs stay selling every week
fuck i wish ppl were more intelligent in these blogs but thats asking a lot i know…..ppl seem to forget animal ambition is a street album(more so thatn a mixtape). he does this shit all the time. drops a dope “album” just before his actual release. which will be SK. he aint floppin, he sellin his mixtape with no promotion…. look for somthin else
50 cent is an Independant artist now. a lot of people don’t even know he has work out. its far from flop.
F.L.5O.P
LOOL. WHERE ARE ALL THE STUPID RETARDS WHO ARE CURTIS FANS? HOW COME U IDIOTS DIDNT GO BUY HIS SINGLES HUH? U FOOLS IN HERE CURSING THE SHIT OUTTA OTHER PEOPLE.I BET U NONE OF THESE RETARDS HERE CLAIMING TO BE HIS FANS BOUGHT ANY SINGLE….SHIT THEY DIDNT EVEN DOWNLOAD THE SHIT ILLEGALLY. STUPID FUCKS!!!
hes pretty friggin rich dawg, why would i buy his singles or music
Karma they say is a “Biatch”.
Do yall remember when Curtis Jackson use to make fun of other artist record sales? Huh? remember it was not that long ago. Karma is m$%^ f$%%king biatch.
50 out here flopping like a fish out of water, his shitty music might sell in Europeon countries and Russia where white people embracethe cheesiest charicatures of Black culture as long as its “American”.
You must be one of those stupid Americans to say that
Fifty Flop Jackson, this nigga had the biggest rapper and the biggest producer both on his side and only went Gold, nigga so garbage that instead of destroying Ross he made Ross bigger.
Ross had Diddy, Jay-Z, Lil Wayne and Jeezy on his album and may not even reach gold!
and still u talkin’ bout 50. thats why he’s so big.
even the haterz gotta listen to all his new songs, i just heard mastermind for the first time, someone made a rick ross free version, it’s only 5 songs.
50 tries hard to appeal to white people because they are his biggest fans, 50 has never released an album without a white man on it but Nas has about 12 albums without a white man on it because Nas makes music for his own people.
Whites love 50 because he dates white women with flat asses and does songs with Timberlake, Eminem, Skylar, and Adam Levine. 50 is like a pet monkey to white people.
More lies from bitter BruthaDee. Ironically, all rappers tried to appeal to white people.
his girl must have left him for a white g-unit fan, only way to explain someone so old being so fucking butthurt about someone for so many years
“Nas has about 12 albums without a white man on it because Nas makes music for his own people.”
Yeah but he got a white woman! What a sellout geek like Kendrick and J Cole having white hipster pop singers on Life is Good to try and appeal to white america.
not to mention all the white producers nas has used to make beats for his albums you old racist piece of trash
@abruthaadee
I remember Saalam Remi using an Amy Winehouse sample after she was dead on Nas LIG,….Saalam Remi is a longtime Nas collaborater and he was also Amy Winehouse executive producer.
Some rappers are slick and use token whites on their albums, they add the white ingredient to their projects to appeal to white people. Some rappers dont feel the need to cater to white people with their music but 50 does.
Whites who live their Rap journey vicariously through Eminem are especially fond of Curtis they view him as a friendly negro they could crack jokes and dance with, put on wigs and make “poop” jokes about man-boobs and butt-holes.
This is why 50 uploaded some psude gay pictures of Diddy on his Instagram….an Instagram of him smiling and grinning with multiple white people. White love their Monkey and their monkey loves them more than his own.
lol bruthadee is 40 is he cares too much to be a sane human being, lollolol
whats it like to be over 40 and have no life or future?
“Anonymous:
not to mention all the white producers nas has used to make beats for his albums you old racist piece of trash”
White colored people can feel free to make beats that the legends use but they need to understand that Nas is not a House N*gger like 50, Nas music caters to Black people while 50 caters to white people, this is why Nas called 50 a Bufoon and a Porch Monkey.
that’s because fif is a business man you dumb fuck..
so thats why nas us broke
is that why nas took 50 on tour with him?
nas was desperate for some white fans
thats a good look for fif
If this sales is for albums that would be so perfect..
this sales is for his singles off his street album that comes before the album
Repent and forsake your sins. Turn to Jesus Christ for your salvation.
Homosexuality is a sin. Repent!
22 You shall not lie with a man as with a woman; it is an abomination. -Leviticus 18:22
Repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!
Jesus said “20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.” -Revelation 3:20

26 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life [his blessed [a]life in the kingdom of God]? Or what would a man give as an exchange for his [blessed] [b]life [in the kingdom of God]?
WELL CURTIS SINGLES SOLD CLOSE TO 1 MILLION COPIES OF EACH SINGLE.THE ONLY REASON IT DIDNT SHOW UP IN THE CHART IS BCOS THE SINGLES WERE SOLD AT INDEPENDENT RETAILERS. SINCE CURTIS IS INDIE NOW HE SOLD HIS SINGLES THRU INDEPENDENT OUTLETS THAT DONT COUNT TOWARDS THE CHART. THATS WHY THE NUMBERS ARE LOW.
SYKE!!! LOOOOOL
