Here We Go. Here We Go Again...

I gotta admit. Last summer, when Kanye and 50 did that huge publicity stunt when 50 claimed if 'Ye outsold him, he'd stop doing solo music-- was cute. It was clever, entertaining and just plain crafty. I gave them much props and kudos for manipulating the masses in to spending massively. But this here? This is just ridiculous! The two are releasing albums in December only a mere week apart. Kanye drops the 16th, and 50 drops the 9th. Saving the best for last I suppose?

Last year, both emcee's dropped their albums on 9/11. Kanye beat 50 massively. All was well that ended well. Until now, I guess. In a concert last week, 50 mocked 'Ye's new single "Love Lockdown" and Tony Yayo smashed a camera to mimick Kanye's infamous lash-out to papps. Kanye responded on his blog by claiming his latest album will be 50's favorite.... I dunno, I think the whole gimmick is played out and corny-- but we'll see if the masses can be manipulated for a second time...
