US rapper 50 Cent has been beaten by rival rap star Kanye West in the stand-off to claim the best-selling album in the US.West's Graduation shifted 957,000 copies in its first week of sales while 50 Cent's album, Curtis, only sold 691,000, according to Billboard.
Before the albums went on sale 50 Cent vowed he would retire from making solo albums if he was outsold by West.
He has now axed his European tour and a performance at London Mobo Awards.

liamssoft, I like this story. It's good stuff.
Good, it'll teach him a lesson not to make promises he can't keep. i don't for one second believe 50 cent will retire.
