50 Cent retirement rumours fuelled as promo tour scrapped
The rapper cancels his scheduled European dates
50 Cent has added fuel to the rumour he is to quit music by scrapping his previously scheduled European tour.
The rapper had previously claimed that he would quit music if his latest album, ‘Curtis’, was out-sold by Kanye West’s new album, ‘Graduation’.
West's has now out-sold ‘Curtis’ in the UK and is expected to do the same in the US.
As well as a series of promo European club dates, 50 Cent has scrapped his scheduled performances at the forthcoming MOBO Awards and Vodofone Live Music Awards, both set to be held in London this week, due to "unforeseen circumstances".
