"It's impossible to make that guy disappear when his light shines as bright as his does," 50 said referring to Lil Wayne. "I think [Lloyd] Banks would have sold 5 mil if I was in jail during the period when his album was released. It was a way for a Wayne fan to be just a Drake fan during that time." (VIBE)
Well, that is what 50 said, but i don't buy that. I think drake might have even sold more if Lil Wayne was around. Drake already built a fan base of his own. He is not a gangstar rapper, so how would wayne fans switch and become his fans. I know some wayne fans would have showed him love, but that is not enough for 50 to say that. I think 50 cent has been doing a lot of analysis lately, mostly which are not correct. I guess he is just looking for a reason for this or that, but the fact is he had his time, and it is over. He had it from 2003-2006; lil wayne has had it since 2007 till date, and that is like 5 years. Let's give him another 2-3 years more, because he has drake and nikki minaj to keep him hot, and his reign would also be over. And a new guy would pop up on th scee; everybody has their time to shine. 50 CENT used his to gather enemies, i guess that is why he fell so fast- as fast as he rose. I am sorry if i have offended any 50 cent fans, i am just spitting the truth.And yeah, i forgot the main story- i think lloyd banks might have sold a little more, or a little less, you can't really tell how the market would swing. For one thing, 50 and g-unt was huge, but the individuality was not really pronounced. Of cos they were good separately, but 50 built the unit to be like "yes men", to him, i guess that was why GAME could not stick around. So, Hunger For More came out a year after 50's debut album, and it sold a million records, i think that is good enough. But 50 saying it would have sold 5 million if he was away in jail, i don't know about that.
I would like to know what YOU think.
