Kanye takes early lead in chart battle
Kanye West has taken an early lead in his chart battle with rap rival 50 Cent.

The hip-hop stars agreed to release their latest albums on the same day, so they could agree on who was the better artist, and currently West is outselling 50 Cent in both the UK and America.

West's Graduation album is expected to shift around 700,000 units in the US, say reports, easily outselling 50 Cent's Curtis record.

The 'In Da Club' rapper claimed that he would quit making solo records if he failed to beat West in the battle.
