Man I'm really torn

I loathe both of them, but if buying a Kanye West CD would make him quit... Well, that would at least be one less of them out there.

heres a greater plan. start a campaign to get no one to buy either CD. most likely making them both lose contracts and then they will both be out.

Can't say I've ever bought a rap CD, so it's not like they're losing business if I boycott 'em.

They both suck. 50 Cent is a terrible rapper. His albums have progressively worsened since his first one. Kanye West is the lesser of two evils but he's arrogant, self centered, and a poor musician overall. I prefer his earlier work. Graduation is horrible. That single where he sampled Daft Punk's Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger is a complete wreck. The video confused me:confused:. If you want some good hip hop listen to Pharoahe Monch new release Desire its way much better than those two pathetic rappers.

50 cent had an awesome album, "Get rich or die trying", largely thanks to Eminem and Dr. Dre.
However, since that album, 50 cent has put out almost nothing that could be considered good rap. I couldn't care less if he quit right now, with the music he's been putting out* these last few years.
Kanye West sucks in general. He's put out a few good songs (Diamonds From Sierra Leone), but in general I don't really like him.
*hehehe, "putting out":D

Here's a better idea, don't buy either! ^_^ Problem inevitably solved and both underqualified "artists" don't get paid and the world is a little better off.
Kanye West and 50 Cent don't seem to all that different from most other rappers.
If you want to buy a quality CD, get Master of Puppets.

What's with all the hate? I haven't really heard much of either, but I'm sure it's good stuff. If 50 quits, he should become a lawyer or something hilarious like that.
50cent resembles a gorilla. This amuses me.
