During a debate with co-host AlexxMedia, 50 Cent argued Jay-Z lacked clear top spots, naming DMX for 1998, Eminem soon after, and himself in 2003. He accused Jay-Z, as Def Jam president, of boosting Kanye West’s 2007 ‘Graduation’ to outsell his ‘Curtis’ album, quipping they ‘unloaded the bank’ for it. ChartMasters data shows Jay-Z with 171 million digital singles versus 50’s 54 million, yet 50 claimed his success stood on merits alone and even joked he pushed Jay-Z into that executive role. Fans divide on the take, some seeing Jay-Z as steadily great rather than era-ruling.
