Here we go agaaaaainnnn! It seems like the SoundScan Showdown between 5O Cent and Kanye West may see a round 2 this winter. Though the dates are seven days apart (50’s, Before I Self Destruct hits Dec.9 and Kanye’s 808’s & Heartbreak’s, hits Dec. 16) I can almost guarantee Mr. Cent will eventually shift his album to Dec. 16. In a clip released through 50’s popular website, ThisIs50.Com, 50 playfully mocks Kanye’s newest offering, “Love Lockdown” at a recent show in Albany, NY.

Introducing the tune as if it were his own, 50 explains to the crowd, “If you got a cellphone or a camcorder I want you to record this, because tonight, this is an exclusive, this a real moment out here in Albany. I wanna perform for you my very first single from my new album, Before I Self Destrcut, scheduled to be out December 9. I hope ya’ll enjoy this because I really would like to get back in position with ya’ll, are you ready for the show?”.

As the beat drops, the crowd recognizes that the track is actually, “Love Lockdown”, Kanye’s first single. 50 begins to lip sing “Love Lockdown”, mimicking Kanye’s moves from the VMA’s last Sunday. At the tracks conclusion, 50 quips, “See what happens….you stop fu*king with me and look what will happen. Siding with 50’s antics, audience members blurt out, “Fu*k Kanye West” every 20 seconds. 50 later adds, “See that, that’s what you’re stuck with. See how you guys treat me? And you know what, I’m not even mad at you…I’m going to accept your apology for that last one, now let’s go back to work”. “I Like The Way She Do It” comes on, and 50 continues with the show.

Is this the start of Clash of the Titans: Round 2? Will 50 jump on the December 16th bandwagon to faceoff with the Louis Vuittion Don again? Will Kanye acknowledge 50’s antics?? Does Hip hop even need another Clash of the Titans??? I don’t care if it’s Sunday, SOUNDOFF, NOW!!!

Sincerely

Low “Is 50 stil mad??” Key
