50 Cent Already Practicing His Concession Speech

  • 8/20/07 at 1:45 PM

In a video interview today with OnSmash.com, 50 Cent states unequivocally, "Of course I'll outsell [Kanye West]." Then he preemptively makes excuses for why he might not: He's less famous in America than he is overseas, his rhymes are just too complex for feeble-minded U.S. record buyers, and, even if he does sell more albums than Kanye, West's label, Def Jam, will probably commit fraud anyway (also in on the plot: Amazon.com, Linkin Park, and the Beastie Boys).
