come on now. . luda is better anyway

man thats *** up..

wow im 3rd

Luda look crossed-eyed in the pic...

kanyes new album is so garbage the 1st cd i eva bought was the college dropout...im so disappointed he gets sh*ttier and sh*ttier every year...its like he's workin backwards

its true,im listening to Kanye's song on a commercial right now

who cares

Say it ain't so

STOP CRYING, OOO FAKE AZZ

I mean, it is what it is..... regardless of who's a better artist Kanye is in way more demand than Luda.

*** not 3rd..oh well

Geez

Luda's good, but Kanye is more relevant and will actually sell all of that 1.2mil... I don't see anything wrong with what they did

LOOKING FORWARD HIS CONCERN IN BEI JING, CHINA. HE IS FABULOUS!!!!

--------------- Catch hot babes, rich and sexy singles@MEET RICH. COM for hotter love, more pleasure, and more fantasy.

bad move definately a mistake..its going to over shadow Ludas joint...he should be ***.

lol i agree sweet....

That's just dumb! Why would you put two label mates against each other. You know Kanye is probably going to sell more anyway. They should have at least shipped out the same units and let the public decided.

If this story is true, it's understandable what Def Jam is doing. Kanye is more relevant right now and more than likely will sell much more than Luda. Why are they being released on the same date anyway?

I LIVE IN VA AND I HEARD LUDA ON THE RADIO PROMOTING HIS CD SO WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL I HAVEN'T EVEN HEARD ABOUT KANYE'S? SO SEEMS LIKE YOU A=HAVE NO WORRIES LUDA RELAX YOUR MIND!!

*** LUDA GONNA GO IN DEF JAM AND "THROW HIS BOWS"

Kanye is NOT more relevant...all that nonsense he is spouting. The demand for Kanye's type of hip-hop/rap whatever you ant to call it is not high...yet. Luda's style...its jumping for the market right about now...I mean come on...

luda is a better artist by far....kanye may need a lil boost bcus his last album was whack

WOW!

Ludacris is overrated in general but definitely trash by comparison to Kanye. But I don't believe he's upset with the label and if he is it's because he's either delusional or jealous. Kanye doesn't need tons of promotion and he's got the biggest mouth in the world - no marketing scheme can be as effective when it comes to getting Kanye noticed as his own huge mouth! Kanye's songs are hot right now...he's in the top 10 on the Itunes charts and Ludacris isn't...Period... That's got nothing to do with promotion...People are just over him...Plus, his songs sound really dated...like something that might have been on his last record. "I Know what them girls like"??????????

i cant stand luda he suckz as a rapper top 20 ***!!! $*** F MAC WEST-OAKLAND BEEN MOBBIN NIqqa STR8 Up!!!

LUDA is the truth and well Kanye is a neverbeen garbage momma's boy. Kanye is beyond garbage and needs to hang it up. If you not from the south you garbage anyway...i.e. Jay Z. But it aint no secret that Def Jam is bias against the truth coming out south so I am not surprised. I can play Luda new album without skipping. Last Kanye album I had, I threw it out the window before I got home from store buying it.

I like kanye but I don't think this album will be as great as his previous ones. Ludacris' Theater of the Mind, I want. You don't see many artists stick to a theme and be able to pull it off in the music.

who cares im getting the killers album instead.

luda is old news Ye is where its at.

smoke a dutch of keef to it.

If he said they were giving kanye double the marketing the I think Luda would have a point. But double the *** is based on prior and anticipated sales. Get ya buzz up luda, and get hot in the streets and you too can ship 1.2 mil. Haa!

Hmmm!

SO WHAT BUY BOTH IF U CAN AFFORD IT I MIGHT BUY KANYE'S THO LOVE LOCKDOWN IS HOTT AND ITS FUNNY TOO LOL... BUT LUDA SONGS HOTT TOO LOVE HIS NEW SONG...

Kanye is way better than Ludacris, thats why more copies of his album are coming out. Ludacris raps about nonsense. Its decent music if you just want something to dance to, but Kanye really brings it. Kanye is a real musician type of artist, he'll go and sample some music from the 50's and 60's that you've never heard of. Kanye has won 10 grammys, Luda is bubble gum rap. I'm glad that the better musician is winning for a change.

GOOD MORNING EVERYBODY!

Y WOULDN'T THEY PROMOTE KANYE? KANYE IS WHAT'S UP, U HEARD ME?! LUDA IS A SISSY AND WASHED OUT!

Kanye needs to stop playing with that Village music $hit, I miss the old Kanye not that 808 *** $hit and with that being said Luda's gonna outsell him by more than triple margins.

I THINK THAT'S *** UP CUZ I THINK LUDA ALBUM IZ GON BE BETTER THAN KANYE'S THIS TIME! BUT I ALSO THINK THEY PICKED THE WRONG SINGLE TO COME OUT FIRST "ONE MORE DRINK" FT T-PAIN SHOULDA BEEN FIRST CUZ THAT'S WHAT'S HOT RIGHT NOW.

Word, cause if you hear Kanye's album, you need a One more drink cause even if that $hit was chopped and screwed it would still be rubbish.

I LOVED LATE REGISTRATION AND COLLEGE DROPOUT GRADUTION WAS NOT AS GOOD BUT IT WAS COO. BUT 808'S & HEARTBREAK I THINK ITS GON BE THAT HORRIBLE VOCODER ***, THESE RAPPERS NEED TO STOP IMITATING T-PAIN AND GET BACK TO RAPPIN! ALSO I THINK KANYE'S LOST HIS LOVE FOR MUSIC SINCE HIS MAMA DIED AND HE NEED TO TAKE A BREAK INSTEAD OF PUTTIN OUT THIS WEIRD MUSIC!!!

Didn't even know Luda had an album coming out! And to kiaflowz - Look out Roger Troutman = TPain is imitating him. Tpain was not the originator. He is faking.

@BALLER ALERT OH YEAH I KNOW DAT I LOVE ME SOME ROGER & ZAPP! BUT STILL I RATHER HEAR T-PAIN DO IT INSTEAD OF KANYE, LIL WAYNE, ETC...

Word, he had two classic albums, a average album and a ***$hit one coming out, I wouldn't be surprised if I hear a remix to YMCA after that last song he got out!!

In Germany both albums are already out. I think Ludas album is better. Kanyes is a bit boring.

you'll crazy talking bout 808s and heartbreaks ain't good. kanye killed it on that album and he sang, that man is just amazin. robocop is my ***, amazin w/ jeezy is just amazin. paranoid is my *** too, streetlight is good, that song with wayne( the name keeps changing) is hott. i can't remeber the rest now but even though i downloaded it i will most def buy the *** cd.

Luda is a great RAPPER, Kanye is a great overall ARTIST (production, writing, etc.)

And why does it have to be who's better? D@mn, you don't hear about rock stars, and country singers goin at it over who's better. or who sold more. They're just getting their money.

This divide and conquer technique really works, doesn't it?

i like luda and everything, but his music dont do what kanye music does to me. its like kanye is in your head lol if u reaaly take the time to listen to his lyrics u will see how great of an artist kanye is. and kanye not even worried about this albumn he has already started working on his rap albumn this album is just a time for him to relax. so he could care less if it dont sell that much. *** to all you'll saying kanye stole tpain *** i aint gonna tell you'll again kanye has been doing it since college dropout.

well if your numbers aint looking right what you expecgt?

I like Ludacris and I will be purchasing his new cd.

Cry baby.

lol funny. but i mean they obviously know kanye's is gonna sell m ore.... why waste production money on cd's that arent going to sell as much? i mean i love me some luda ; buh kanye is my FAVORITE rapper.

well i don't know about this 1

kanye is wack and he don't put on for his city we don't even know that nicca no mo

Graduation sold 997,000 albums in its first week!!!...Ludacris' albums i dont think has come close to sellin that many in the first week so im sure the sales department made this decision based off past record sales....

dont get mad at Def Jam...get mad at urself!!

i still got love for luda but i gotta call it how i see it!!!

FOR ALL THOSE WHO TRY TO COMMENT AND THE COMMENTS BOX IS NOT THERE. LOG IN AND THE COMMENTS BOX WILL APPEAR WHEN YOU SCROLL DOWN TO IT.

***...........

duhhhh they only trying to see a return on their investments but I know Luda album is going to be better.

Kanye just has a broader following...It's only business Luda...dont wait for the record label...promote yaself...

*** STORMZOE we dont always agree but when we do it be dead on...

well... i guess i would worry too if i wasnt weezy who still sold way over a million in one week, during a recession, after my album was leaked. lol

but for those of you who buy cds, luda's cd is hot! so if def jam isn't saying it enough, i'll say... GO BUY IT! you'll love it! luda's pretty good. but i'll wait for the Carter IV! thats the next cd i'll BUY!

Kanye has more bankable potential ... simple as that ... I like Luda though ...

OK, I just heard Kanye West's album and now I think I'm going to pour hot boiling oil down my ears to drain the singing out and record it on video and then send the video to Kanye West's mailbox to show my expressions of what I think of this album.

NO WORDS CAN EXPLAIN HOW EXCRUCIATINGLY PAINFUL IT IS TO LISTEN TO HIS ALBUM!! I REPEAT DO NOT BUY KANYE'S ALBUM UNLESS YOUR CONTEMPLATING SUICIDE AND YOU NEED SOME MOTIVATION. I REPEAT PLEASE DO NOT BUY KANYE WEST'S 808 AND HEARTBREAK ALBUM UNLESS YOUR SUICIDAL, YOUR DEF AND YOU NEED A REASON TO BE HAPPY THAT YOU ARE DEF OR YOUR PLANNING ON TORTURING SOMEONE TO DEATH (HATE CRIME) THAT YOU REALLY DESPISE!!

DON'T EVEN BUY THE BOOTLEG!!

It's going to take Luda months to sell 600,000

Kanye will sell more that's the point!

GOTDAMN, THEY BOTH MAKING MONEY! AIN'T LIKE THEY HEADING TO THE UNEPLOYMENT LINE SO WHAT THE HELL HE WHINING 4??????

dirty south gulls give me dirty south heeeeaaad!

THANK YOU fupeople!! I couldn't agree more.

WHAT THE FYKE EVER!!!!! THEY BOTH MAKING MONEY SO WHY HE MOANING ABOUT THAT ***????? AIN'T LIKE LUDA OR KANYE GOING BROKE SO WTF????

@PRISS..... YA MORE THAN WELCOME!!!!

MO FO'S WHININ AND CRYIN..... 4 WHAT????? THEY BOTH MAKING MONEY SO WHAT THE IS THE GOTDAMN PROB???? *** CRY BABIES!!!!!

I LODT INTEREST WITH BOTH OF THEM.BUT WOULD RATHAR SEE LUDAS ALBUM PUT TOP PRIORITY.

LOST

that old azz pic of luda!

Oh they are good for pullin' some bulshyt! *** Chris..DTP running things all next year be on the look out for Steph jone and Willy northpole!

wtf nobody wants to hear him anymo anywayz, all his stuff soundz the same!

Ok so fighting is NEVER the answer so unfortunately that's ALL bad. LUDA has every right to be upset. His Rap career speaks for itself. I know Kanye is the "Hotness" right now but don't sleep on LUDA!!! He still got it in him and has that platinum potential. DEF JAM IS IN THE WRONG on this one.......

Luda is better than everybody rappin right now!

Every song he put is good

kanye prob will sell more even though Luda is better

Are the *** what they are expecting for first and second week sales?

Luda still gonna sell around 1 million at the end, he gonna get more ***. 600k in first week is real good for Luda.

IM SORRY TO SAY IT BUT I WOULD BUY KANYE BEFORE I BUY LUDA! BUT HEY I LIKE BOTH OF THEM! KANYE SELLS MORE THAN LUDA!SORRY LUDA!

well kanye do sell more these days in this *** up economy luda's style is soo played out so yea def jam is making the right choice, lets see how luda's cd moves 1st b4 putting out a million copies only to see 300.000 sell

MO FO'S WHININ AND CRYIN..... 4 WHAT????? THEY BOTH MAKING MONEY SO WHAT THE IS THE GOTDAMN PROB???? *** CRY BABIES!!!!!

DEF JAM RUNNIN WIT WEST..CUZ HE IS THE HOTTER ARTIST AT THE MOMENT

LETS BE REAL. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME LUDA SOLD MORE THEN 600,000 THE FIRST WEEK OF SALES???? AND WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME KANYE SOLD A MILLION? WAITING.......MY POINT EXACTLY SO LUDA NEED TO SIT DOWN AND BE HAPPY ABOUT THAT 600,000 CUZ WEST IS ABOUT TO SELL LIKE CRAZY.

IF U LISTEN TO LOVE LOCKDOWN LYRIC BY LYRIC OR READ THE LYRICS IT SEEMS TO ME IT'S A DOWN LOW SONG. I HEARD A FEW THINGS BUT THE DOWN LOW THING SEEMS TO BE THE MOST TRUE ONE. CHECK OUT THIS LYRIC:

I'm not lovin you, way I wanted to See I wanna move, but can't escape from you So I keep it low, keep a secret code So everybody else don't have to know

THEN I READ WHERE SOMEONE SAID HE'S TALKING ABOUT AFRICA BEING KEPT AWAY FROM HER DUE TO AMERICAN SOCIETY AND HIS FAME.

*** whatcha heard, Luda's CD is straight fire! "Theatre of the Mind" y'all.

WHERE R THEY "SHIPPING" THESE CD'S TO? THEY R BOTH PLATINUM ARTISTS SO WHY NOT SHIP AT LEAST A MILLION FOR BOTH? THAT IS *** UP.

@trooper sup? i was looking for u so u can explain to me whats the deal with jayz and jazo, if u don't mind.

AND THATS A OLD *** PIC OF LUDACHRIS. HE GOT *** HAIR NOW.

oh and at the people who are saying kanye worship the devil. kanye don't bite his tounge for anyone so if he did worship the devil trust and believe he wouldve told.

MASTERTEACHER NEEDS TO GET A LIFE AND READ A *** BIBLE, 4REAL. ALL THAT "INTERNET PUSHING CRAZY *** PERSON" IS NUTTY AS ALL HELL, REAL TALK. THAT'S JUST SAD, REALLY, SAD SAD SAD AND NEEDS TO GET OFF THE PC AND READSOMETHING ELSE...

IT'S FASHIONSTAR... CHICK, GET A LIFE.

@fupeople-who you think you foolin man you aint slick,the truth is going to get out no matter what you say man. thats the way they been programming yall for decades as soon as yall see somebody like me telling yall the truth you call us crazy,nutty well when people start seein git with they own eyes thats not going to work any more thats why im putting up these links, we'll see how crazy I am! you said its sad, the only thing sad about it is that people like you think its sad to get the truth out. and to the girl who said kanye would tell you if he was a devil worshipper, well do you listen closely to his lyrics and his songs and the clothes he wears(like the *** with the stanic goat head on it) you will see that subliminally he is telling you!

******* I DONE PROVED MY *** POINT********

Get em

I prefer Luda over Kanye but if you are looking at numbers, they are going to point in Kanye's direction simply because he has more commercial acknowledgement. I really haven't heard much about Luda's album so if this is true, I can understand why he might feel slighted by the label.

@masterteacher so me wearing a jesus chain and throwing up the roc sign means i sole my soul to the devil too uh? such a lame, i'm pretty sure they never looked at the *** like the way u do. and like i said before kanye dont bite his tounge so he would tell u if he didn't believe in god ot if he worshiped the devil

KAYNEEEEEEEEEE IS MUCH BETTER THAN WHACK *** LUDACRIS

I think kanye is more of a crossover artist but i you look at the sales of their last albums luda release therapy- 1.9 million units kanye Graduation 2.1 million units not that much of a difference. If i was luda id be mad too!Why would def jam release these two albums on the same day? Can you say kanye vs 50 2!

I'm sorry. Is it just me or does Kanye's lips always look like a old dry nut sack? Where's Suzy Chapstick when you need her?

OLD *** PIC MTO USE AN UP TO DATE ONE NEXT TIME CUZ LUDA LOOKS BETTER THEN THAT NOW LOL ;)

I don't care about either of their albums

WELL I AINT BUYIN NEITHER 1 AND KANYE NEEDS TO GO VACA AND GREIVE AND LUDA GIVE IT UP U LOST IT WHEN YOU CUT OFF YOUR BRAIDS

luda is not anymore

*hot

***4 all u Luda fans***

check out www.riverfrontradio.com to see an interview i did with Luda the *** Obama made history!!!

Now that i think about it, Luda is not even trippin off that $#@&! Check out the interview as he speaks on it!!!

Luda's new album slaps! You heard it here, it's a classic album.

Kanye's.....well...let just say he need to go back into the studio ASAP and make songs that got him here.

DEF JAM is making a huge mistake not promoting Luda's album.

THAT IS MESS UP!!!!!!!KANYE NEW CD IS A MESS, AND WHO THE HELL TOLD HIM HE CAN SING, SO I FELL LUDA ON THIS ONE!!!!!!!

Luda is betta. He's like butta. Kanye is just plain lame. He is an egotistical crybaby.

He'd be very lucky to move half of that 600k especially with no promotion.

cant do luda like that
