Early sales result show that Kanye West is outselling 50 Cent.
50 Cent announced a few weeks ago that if his new album, "Curtis," did not outsell Kanye West's new album, "Graduation," during their first week in that he would retire as a solo artist.
Stores across the country report more Kanye sales, even in NY.
"It's probably at 3 to 1, with Kanye outselling 50 with our sales so far," Carl Alvarez, urban buyer for the Virgin Entertainment Group, said. "I anticipated 60% of people picking up both, but we anticipated Kanye selling more."
An Amazon.com spokeswoman said the site will be tracking sales for each album via a graphic on its music page all week. At midday Tuesday, West was outpacing 50 Cent more than 2 to 1.
"We're probably a little stronger on the Kanye side of things, due to our customer base," Best Buy senior vice president Gary Arnold said. "Kanye's base seems to be a little broader than 50's base, so if I have to anticipate results, I'd probably give the nod to Kanye this week."
