I'm gonna indulge the obvious and point out that this pic seems inspired the "you lean in 90%" kissing scene from Hitch. NTTAWWT.

Actually I was thinking more in lines with the rather comfy hug Fiddy and Game shared. But now that you mention it, I'll have to say your right.

If either one of these guys is the "king of hip hop" then God help us all! Although I do like Kanye, the only mainstream artist capable of living up to that moniker is Nasir Jones.

50 appears to be confusing programmers and listeners alike with a plethora of tepid releases (Amusement Park, Straight To The Bank, I Get Money, Ayo Technology) and delayed his release in order to enlist Timberland and Justin Timberlake. I can only assume this was done in order to improve his chances of scaling the memorable (or is it quickly forgettable and disposable) heights of ... The Pussycat Dolls?!? Meanwhile, Kanye's pre-lease "Can't Tell Me Nothing" was a great track (in my opinion) and a solid urban video hit (in Canada anyway), while "Stronger" is now firmly entrenched in the Top 5 on Billboard. I might actually buy Kanye's disc since I will likely not have heard the majority of songs already! I love that "King of Hip Hop" comment ("God help us" if the choice is between these two). Isn't the game really no game at all, since the objective here is to ascertain who is the "King of The Billboard Hot 200" for the week in which they both release their new material? Wouldn't it be great if some release by someone like Tony Bennett or Rod Stewart singing retread standards knocked them both off?
