i think it matters to 50 he started from music that's his joy as you can see he hands out freebies to the public he is a grateful person who would put a mix tape out for free or put it like this who has ever did that? who has shed out millions to repair his hood? with jay-z a little over 50 by a couple of millions jay-z didn't give a s*** about his hood he is a cocky mother f***** trying to buy into the yankess having some money invested in his basketball team? what has he done for the people nothing sabotage it is and the rest of the hiphop community is chipping in to take down 50 not only jimmy, all the hatters he has they are forming like a secret society to destroy the camp. gunit is not alone they have many soldiers and when 50 does leave that s***** company it's a wrap 50 will build his own empire from scratch and put everyone on the same way he has been doing it.

Well if 50 is such a great businessman he should have been about his business checking how many copies would be available the week BEFORE it's release shouldn't he?

If he's so involved in his own business...if he's Curtis "Interscope" Jackson like he says he is then why isn't he overseeing things like this? Surely if he has that much influence at Interscope he could ask "his" production department for figures of what was pressed in total before the launch couldn't he?

If you owned a f****** BAKERY and you were having a CAKE SALE on Saturday, wouldn't you find out Friday evening just how many f****** CAKES you had available to sell tomorrow? You would have to be some f****** idiot or an extremely naive businessman if you didn't....

He supposedly runs the label and he can't even check how much of his product is in stock and available for shipping???

How can Interscope be f****** him over? Isn't he Curtis "Interscope" Jackson? I thought he had all the control over there? Isn't that what he said?

Oh yeah. He was lying. I knew it at the time when he said it but I must have forgotten. I had to wait until he proved it to me last week before I remembered...

Matter of fact: Today, 09th July @ 15h20 afternoon South African Time, I've just been to Musica, South Africa's leading Music Outlet and believe it or not, TOS is not yet on the shelves - this nearly ten days after being released!
I am not into saying Interscope this and interscope that but I remember sometime back when I read in the papers, heared on radio and saw on television here when it was said that "there were complaints in some states of the America about Billboards depicting action from the Get Rich or Die Tryin Movie,with claims that they were depicting too much violence!"
I could not believe it? That all of a sudden people were draping themselves with flags of morality and cryin foul while action movies by other stars, white or black, never got such treatment from pure moralists! Still today, how many action movies have received such a treatment?
Was such treatment meted out because 50, the protagonist of hardwork, the embodiment of get rich or die tryin and all things dedicated to creativity and earning one's money was involved?
Tell me and those who care to read this "why there are so-called conveniently-branded-blockbusters-or-thrillers-for-your-consumption, with their many sequeals - why there is no outcry about them from keepers at the gate of morality?
Get this: All this conniving, is because THISIS50, yet the truth will remain: of the current crop of artists, 50's story is the more inspiring, more intriguing - Up to today, I AM YET TO COME ACCROSS A MORE INSPIRING ALBUM TITLE THAN "Get Rich or die tryin" and also yet to come across a better album than that in living memory!!!

Is it not a vast difference between being a one man owner of a bakery and being a key figure in a conglomerate owned by other people? Why get so overly simplistic? In your bakery, yes, you can and should check how many cakes are available for the pending Saturday Sale? But you see, Curtis Jackson is not in the business of owning that bakery, or is he?
What cannot be disproved nor denied is the fact that of the artists signed with Interscope, in terms of recorded sales prior to the release of TOS, he's been ahead of the pack. And surely, Interscope guys supposedely played their part in ensuring that distribution of the cds to music outlets took place. Now we r faced with a situation where people confess to not having got hold of the album @ the first attempt - and that, not because music outlets encountered record sales but because Interscope did not distribute it to them in the first place? Why that is, Interscope should know and share that with the rest of the world.
Interscope themselves know for the fact that it is highly unlikely that after G unit's successful "Beg for Mercy cd" their market appeal would deep to the point of people not wanting anything to do with their follow up offering.
If you were not Alweakness-thinking-almighty-of-himself you should be in a position to shed your pre-disposed bias and judge the situation objectively.
BOTTOMLINE: If anything, 50 Cent and G Unit, in spite of all the conniving by Interscope, come out unbruised by this below the belt blow - IT IS INTERSCOPE WHO SUCCEED TO EXPOSE TO THE WORLD HOW EVIL FORCES COULD DO ALL IN THEIR POWER TO DISCREDIT A LIVING LEGEND! If ever there's a classic case, this is the one!
On the basis of this, when is 50 dumping them, I mean they have done a good job of increasing their dumpability chances!!!

Is it not that there's a vast difference between being a one man owner of a bakery and being an intergral part of a conglomerate like Interscope? And what's with being overly simplistic just to bask in G Unit's supposed failure which was, matter of fact, orchestrated by Interscope and does not owe largely to the unit being flops?

50 Cent, Alweakness-thinking-almighty-of-yourself-and-claiming-to-be-jesus-christ, is not in the mundane business of selling cakes. With cakes, yes, one would count and prepare oneself! But undoubtedly 50 Cent is a major force who'll not reduce himself to policing distribution managers of Interscope, overseeing whether they've distributed ample units of the album to record stores.
If u have your wits about you, you'll understand that it's highly unlikely thast after the success of the ever banging Beg For Mercy album, it is highly unlikely that people would not keenly await TOS Album.
This whole debacle of Interscope wanting to hopelessly dent G Unit's stature as a force to be reckoned with is a classic case of evil the industry could be and how people could stoop low as to disrespect even the most revered of people.
Yet the truth will always remain: whether Interscope likes it or not: G Unit bangs! period!
