At this point, I'm pretty sure it would cost Interscope a hell of a lot more money to put out a new 50 Cent album that it would make them in return. Think about it, 50 still thinks he's the hottest thing in the world, so I'm sure he spared no expense when creating the album and you know he's gonna want a grand marketing scheme like he's about to release one of his first 3 albums. Then the SoundScan numbers will come in, it'll struggle to crack 100,00 units first week, take a 60+% dive the following week, and end up only selling about 250,000 total. Of course, 50 will blame them (again) and they'll be left with a huge loss and a disgruntle artist. Right now they have a disgruntle artist, but haven't loss any money on him. Sounds like a win to me.
Again, I really like 50, but it's not 2003 anymore (in fact, Get Rich Or Die Trying is less than 2 years away from its 10th anniversary), and it's time to move on. Longevity just wasn't meant for him, but who cares, he's fucking rich. Mission accomplished.
