LOOL At New Album Titles

Agree or disagree - in 2008 we are going to be seeing some weird album titles. First there's the This is Noise EP by Rise Against. lol. Then Billy Talent goes satanic with their dvd release 666. Nicole Scherzinger is naming her album Her Name Is Nicole... I guess for some reason she doesn't realize she's the ONLY Pussycat Doll that we actually know the name of... Then there's some albums where the artist just totally got lazy and said "screw you all I'm not putting any thought into my album title". That would be Lil' Wayne who is going to release The Carter III.. (it was ok for 2 albums but 3..... if there's a The Carter IV...Let's just say he's starting to overdue it) Then Simple Plan didn't even bother to name their new album. @^#%@^%$ Now some funny ones. Let's start with Snoop Dogg's "Ego trippin'". Well, if you really think you can sing like T-Pain I guess thats an appropriate title... Then there's the album we're all looking forward to - Panic At The Disco's. (Took me 5 minutes to write their name there cuz I kept adding the !) "Pretty. Odd." At least they admit it. Also this year look out for Dr. Dre to finally give up the Chronic and step into Detox, and Marshall Mathers to become a King. G-Unit will give another shot at making good music again with Shoot To Kill - let's hope their diminishing-quality music indeed doesn't kill, especially when 50 Cent is planning to Self Destruct. My favourite, however, will be the new Gym Class Heroes CD if they do indeed choose to go with this name. "Music on a CD" - 5/5, 2 thumbs up, best album name EVER!

Yeah....

Yeah... it's hard to find time to upload songs and such now with school, and I'm kind of losing interest so I might post only like a couple of times a month to keep you updated on songs I guess, you can request songs in the comments box if you want any, I'm willing to do requests anytime. Peace.

And The Winner Is...

To make a long story short, Billboard reports:

50 Cent - Curtis : 659, 682

Kanye West - Graduation: 930, 251

Dont beleive me?

Anyways, their going to release the 100% definate numbers tomorrow so I'll post if they are any different.

CURTIS VS GRADUATION PT. 2: THE BATTLE RAGES ON

The battle still continues, and Kanye is still coming out on top. As of September 14, Graduation has sold 781, 000 copies in the US, which is amazing for a rap CD (imagine he goes platinum in the first week!). 50 Cent is behind with 603, 000 copies I hear. No one has reported the worldwide sales as of yet. Sometime between tomorrow and Wednesday the final results for week one will be up so I will post those as soon as I see them.

CURTIS VS GRADUATION

I've listened to both albums now, and they are both great. They are arguably the best hip hop albums of 2007. On Curtis, my favourite tracks are Come & Go, I'll Still Kill, Peep Show and Fire. My favourite Graduation tracks are Flashing Lights, Everything I Am and Big Brother. Overall, I think 50 has more hits on his album, but still, they are very different and it is hard to compare. In all the polls people said 50 was gonna win. Well... The numbers for the first day are in. As Billboard reports, Kanye pushed 437, 000 units whil 50 only sold 310, 000. It's still pretty close, so let's see who ends up selling more at the end of the week.

The Post You've All Been Waiting For

So, today's the big day. I went and got both CDs right as soon as school finished. And their only $12.99 each, good deal. I'm listening to 50 right now, I haven't heard Kanye's yet, I'll give em both a good listen and review them tomorrow. Um, dissapointments -
1) The biggest dissapointment to me was that Kanye's album didn't include Bittersweet for those who actually bought it. This really pissed me off because that was the only song I was looking forward too. I had half a mind to screw buying his album and just download it. The cover is sick but his back cover doesn't include the track list so big dissapointment..
2) 50 is straight fire no complaints.
Other stuff: 50's CD has a song called Man Down, some words are censored and I'm not sure what the are, it's weird because they don't censor the swear words. His cover is sick, front and back. At the mall I went to, they said Kanye is selling TWICE AS MUCH as 50. Hmm.. Let's wait and see how this plays out. BTW for people who are ignorant and don't pay attention, 50 is NOT going to retire if he loses, he explained that, you probably weren't listening. So go buy the albums if you havent yet, they are both totally worth it. Peace.

BTW - 50 Cent & Kanye CLASH OF THE TITANS on 106 & Park!!!!!!!!!!

Info n Stuff

Sorry I haven't posted anything in the past few days, you know, school.... Anyways, not really much has happened since last Tuesday, here's what is just out and what to look for:

Groove Coverage has a new song out called Because I Love You, at least I think it's a new song, that's what it's saying everywhere. If you look for the extended mix of it you should be able to find an mp3 of it somewhere, it took me a while, I'll post it if anyone asks for it so if you want to request it, request in the comment box otherwise you can try and find it.

No Paradise is a song from Anti-Flag's upcoming EP. It has leaked recently but I have also heard that it was released along with certain copies of their last album so it shouldn't be hard to find.

Chamillionaire has released his new single called "The Bill Collecta" which features Krayzie Bone. It isn't as good as their last collabo, but then again, it's almost impossible to top isn't it? Well, the song is alright, I have to give it a while to see if it grows on me.

Lastly, I'm sure everyone knows what's going down tomorrow so there's no need to talk about it an more, I'm sure we've exhausted the topic. I'm going to get both right after school, I'm sure you will all do the same. Anyways I will try to keep you posted with the chart results if I can find them. Peace.
