The showdown is on. On June 24th, there's three big releases on deck for to hit stores -- The Game's Los Angeles Times (LAX), G-Unit's Terminate On Sight, and Nelly's Brass Knuckles.

However, according to 50 Cent, his competition will probably only be Nelly. Why? Because he plans to push Game's album back, since he still has control over his project, he says.

In a converation with MTV, 50 explained that he will push the Compton rapper's album back to make way for his G-Unit group's project.

"I'mma wait a little, then I'm just gonna push his album back," 50 told MTV. "I don't think there's anyone that would legitimately look at him like it's a competition, him versus G-Unit. But, I think it could potentially recreate what was created with East Coast-West Coast... that energy. You got people who would side with youjust before you're from the East Coast and side just because like 'Yo, I don't really rock with Game, but this the West homie.' You feel what I'm saying? It just doesn't make sense. I earn money every time he releases an album. He signed a five-album deal. He's only on album three."

The first two singles from the upcoming G-Unit album will be "I Like the Way She Do It" and "Rider Pt. 2."

However before its release, there will be at least one more mixtape -- the highly anticipated G-Unit edition of DJ Drama's heralded mixtape series Gangsta Grillz.

I'm wit marvin on this one, 50 and game together are unstopable, they need to stop this shit and make some more music together, they both gon sell hella lot more albums together than apart, he need to get back wit g-unit. Ima HUGE g-unit and 50 cent fan, but they were 10 times better when they had game him and 50 together were tha best no question, if they got game back they don't even need buck but if we could get both him and buck back, g-unit would be killin this shit like no other, they coulda have a super group again... holla at me, lemme know what you think

If you can say that 50 isn't a hater for this one then you don't know the definition.

@marvin....i totally agree with you....it was well spoken...the only problem is that 50 and games ego's are so big that neither one will give in. i am a true 50 cent fan.

FIRST LET ME SAY, THIS BEEF SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPEN IN THE FIST PLACE. FOR THE RECORD I’M A BIG FAN OF DR. DRE, I BUY EVERY RECORD AND EVERY SONG THAT HE PRODUCE REGARDLESS IF I LIKE THE RAPPER OR NOT IF DRE PRODUCE ONE SONG ON THE ALBUM I WILL BUY THAT ALBUM, BUT I MUST SAY DR. DRE IS NOT A GOOD LEADER. YOU DO NOT ALLOW TWO ARTISTS UNDER YOUR LEADERSHIP TO BEEF WITH THE OTHER. I KNOW THIS BEEF HURT DRE FINANCIALLY. DR. DRE HAPPENED TO HAVE TWO SUPER POWER ARTISTS ONE SELLING 11 MILLION RECORDS AND ONE SELLING 5 MILLION RECORDS. (THIS IS A GIFT FROM GOD!) ONLY REASON YOU SEE THE G-UNIT MEMBERS ALBUM DID NOT DO WELL IS BECAUSE THIS TIME AROUND THE WEST COAST FAN DID NOT BUY THE ALBUMS. (THE ALBUMS WAS GREAT, GREAT MUSIC) 50 CENTS AND THE GAME NEED TO MAKE UP AND DO MUSIC FOR BOTH COAST AND GET PAID.

I KNOW THIS BEEF HURT DRE FINANCIALLY.DRE HAPPENED TO HAVE TWO SUPER POWER ARTISTS ONE SELLING 11 MILLION RECORDS AND ONE SELLING 5 MILLION RECORDS.AT THE END DRE LOOSE THE FIVE MILLION RECORD ARTIST, AND THE FIVE MILLION RECORD ARTIST SABOTAGE THE 11 MILLION RECORD ARTIST AND THE HOLD G-UNIT CREW. I LOVE 50 CENT, I BUY ALL HIS ALBUM. 50 CENT IS THE SMARTEST BUSINESS MEN IN HIP HOP, BUT I KNOW THAT 50 CENTS ALSO KNOWS THAT BEEF SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPEN IN THE FIRST PLACE, BECAUSE IT COST HIM. I LOVE GAME; I THINK HE’S A SMART BROTHER. I BUY ALL HIS ALBUM, BUT I KNOW THE GAME ALSO KNOWS THAT THIS BEEF SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED IN THE FIRST PLACE. I KNOW IT APPEAR THAT THIS BEEF DID NOT HURT THE GAME MUCH, BUT IN REALITY THE GAME WOULD SELL MORE RECORD THEN HE HAS. YOU CAN’T SELL ALBUM ONLY IN ONE COAST; YOU HAVE TO BE ABLE TO SELL ALBUM ON BOTH COAST. EAST COAST, WEST COAST. 50 CENTS AND THE GAME NEED TO MAKE UP AND DO MUSIC FOR BOTH COAST AND GET PAID.
