50 Cent Orders His Record Label to Buy His New Album

It is reported that during a conference call, 50 Cent told his record label that they were being cheap with marketing his new record, called Curtis, and told them that either they buy 300,000 copies of it or he will leave the label. Since 50 Cent is currently one of Interscope’s most popular artists, they say they are willing to increase their post-production budget. Music Industry experts expect that Kanye West will sell about 750,000 copies of his record this week and 50 Cent will sell about 600,000 copies without the Interscope purchase.
