Video: Curtis on G-Unit, Politics & His Dud Album
MTV speaks to Curtis about the new G-Unit album, Hillary and Barack, the dud that was the Curtis album, his new video game and website and more.
“It was a blockbuster that I lit, and it didn’t explode. I felt like it should have went a lot further than the results I received. Publicly, I feel that 50 Cent fans don’t believe it was a dud. It did have ‘I Get Money,’ it did have ‘Ayo Technology,’ ‘I’ll Still Kill,’ ‘Follow My Lead’ with Robin Thicke. These records were hit records, but the timing they came out was wrong. If the first record you heard off Curtis was ‘I Get Money,’ it would have shifted more millions in sales.”

ew Jersey State Police said 35-year-old Johnny Reid IV, of Winslow Township, is the man who caused a rush-hour nightmare for thousands of commuters.
Police said Reid, during the standoff, repeatedly claimed that he was being persecuted by the government and said he wanted to speak with a local television news anchor, as well as Sen. Barack Obama’s wife.
“Tell Michelle Obama to check her e-mail,” Reid said, as he was led into the Bellmawr state police barracks.

On topic, though- 50’s market analyzation may just be a case of him reaching, and making excuses to rationalize his album’s underperformance, rather than just acknowledging that not only has the industry as a whole taken a downturn, but his core fanbase is eroding and branching out into other artists and genres, as well as downloading….â€Get Rich†numbers will never happen again…shit, when that joint dropped, I was on the bandwagon with everybody else, but my the time the Massacre dropped, I just didn’t caaaaare (c) Mike from Boyz II Men…

cosign GRODT numbers wont happen again, with the possible exception of Detox
March 28th, 2008 at 11:28 am
to k-rob and moresicka, i don’t think you’re understanding simple numbers
a little label like koch gets money off of almost any album that moves some units, because they have very little overhead and promotion costs
they have a mdoel where a dude can do 50,000 the first week and koch still cakes off of it
not interscope
interscope has a marketing machine that it deploys for albums like 50’s and 50’s albums have to do tremendously well for them to even start making money
and fyi — they didn’t make money off of curtis. that’s why all 50 can say is “my fans liked it.” is he saying interscope got rich off of it? no. because they didn’t. they took a loss.
what has happened is that the industry has changed and you guys are still looking at just units. it’s not that simple. the projections for 50’s album were enormous and it didn’t come close to meeting expectations.
my advice: get off of dude’s dick. thanks.

In the early 90’s, very few artists were going gold, never mind platinum, and as a result the quality of music was arguably the highest in the genre’s history, all the way up to 1996, because chasing sales was important, but secondary to quality.
Arguably.

Last time I checked, a “flop” was determined by expectations, not actual numbers. Flop may be a error of hyperbole, but the fact that it DIDN’T meet expectations = flop by industy standards…. Not hatin, cuz I think 50’s hungrier than he’s been since pre-GRODT, and I like what I’ve been hearing from his camp this year… I say all this to say that the fact that 50 just GAVE AWAY 2 quality mixtapes shows that he’s figuring out that just because you can brag about having the most sales doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re the MOST relevant in a fickle market. K-Rob, I hope you’re gettin paid for this because if not you are simply in denial… Got too much work today 4 this pointless ish.
