One can think of no one better to mediate the feud between 50 Cent and Kanye West than Stuart Scott ... except of course Conan O'Brien, or Daulerio. Both have albums coming out on Sept. 11, and Fiddy, as the kids call him, said that he will retire if Kanye's Graduation outsells his Curtis. The two will square off on the Sept. 11 episode of BET's 106 & Park, and Scott will be present to, well, I'm not sure.
But SportsbyBrooks is quick to point out that Kenny Chesney also has an album coming out that day, Just Who I Am: Poets And Pirates, so watch your backs, Fifty and Kanye. Bluegrass and Southern rock. Represent.

Stuart will be there because they need someone who can see both sides of the argument.
Meanwhile, this morning on CNN I saw that LL Cool J is hosting a rap fantasy camp.
Hasn't 9/11 suffered enough already?
But will he be looking them straight in the eyes when he asks the really important questions?
Mediating the feud between 50 and Kanye? Wow, that is truly the work of a cockeyed optimist.
Just Who I Am: Poets And Butt-Pirates
Peyton-ized.
Poets and Pirates? Couldn't be gayer if had chin whiskers rubbing on a pair of nut sack. That's right, two dicks...
The Balls has an album coming out?
'The Smokey Torpedo'?
Bluegrass - cool.
Southern Rock - cool.
Country - not cool.
I thought his name was 10 Nickels.
@being sven:
Don't you mean Smokey Tornado?
@Unregular: I beg to differ. Willie Nelson is as cool as hell.
They brought Boo Yah in because the one thing 50 and Kanye agree on is that he's a d-bag.
@J-No: Yes good point, I'll give you that.
@being sven: hahaha, is that like the smoky tornado in the water?
yeah, those album releases should ease the pain that many Americans still feel every Sept. 11.
Isn't Osama coming out with his video on 9/11 too? Stuart Scott is gonna have a fatwah out on his ass if he doesn't invite da OBL.

AJ would be there but he's too busy working on getting DJ Jazzy Jeff out of the Fresh Prince's basement.
@Lady Andrea: Do I need two two-liter bottles for that?
@UkraineNotWeak: @Lady Andrea: Yes and Yes.
And, the Hot Hot Heat also have a new album....
Not to be confused with the Hot Hot Hot guy.
are there any good albums scheduled to be released that day or just shitty ones ?
Berman said he'll retire if Scott out catchphrases him.
I entitle that picture "Eye-Balls."
this is the most hackneyed "rivalry" since Brady Quinn and AJ Hawk
Wow, get a lazy eye on AJ and he could look like Stu Scott instead of Freddy Mercury.
Also being released on 9/11: Toby Keith's I AM AMERICAN, (You Fag-lovin' Foreign Son Of A Bitch)"
Magic stick vs. Manning's stick only on BET!
*the white Stu Scott
Hopefully Stu got some work in on the speedbag at the ESPN gym.
Did he just call Kenny Chesney "southern rock"?
Judging from the pics, Stu looks ready to throw down a Motown Philly Mustache contest.
The balls, the glass eye-ball - both fathered by Dave Wanndstadt?
You may be able to lie to me - but your moustache will always tell the truth!
Will Kanye and Fitty also be encased in large, submerged, plastic orbs?
Stuart Scott will bring peace to the world of rap
Isn't this mentioned somewhere in revelations of nostradamus. Gotta be a sign of bad things to come. Next thing you know steroid abusers will be featured in gay cowboy films.
Chesning ftw!
"I don't think it's a battle, I think it's a lot of fun," said Stephen Hill, a VP at BET. "I think Kanye will tell you he moved his date to 50's date to draw this type of attention, to create this marketing opportunity." Besides, what if you plan on buying both?
What if you plan on buying neither?
@Shawon-O-Meter:
yeah, and "bluegrass"
We'll let it slide.
I smell a sequel to Drumline here.
If only Stu had stepped in sooner, Tupac and Biggie might still be alive today.
What's up with that picture? Is this Deadspinville? Does this mean that Scott is assimilated and The Balls is a rule-breaker?
'Cause, ya know, that would fit.
@Civil Negligence: +2
That dude's going to lose the other eye....
Can we expect Stuart Scott to appear in the next House Party movie?
@PenskeMaterial: Stu Scott convinced Suge Knight not to throw Vanilla Ice over the balcony.
I can see it now - "Fiddy" with his pants up around his armpits, playing shuffleboard, whining about how his kids never visit him. You know, kickin' it down in Del Bocca Vista.
@Upstate Underdog:
This will probably kick ass
[www.amazon.com]
America obviously is the winner. If you avoid record stores that day you get to miss 3 crappy new album releases at once!
"The Government hates rap!!! You mean to tell me they can find Saddam in a hole somewhere in Iraq, but they can't find who killed 'Pac...Biggie dead, Tupac dead, Vanilla Ice, still alive!!!"
"'Ye, Fiddy, I want you give me a call in a week 'cause I'll wanna hear the Soundscan numbers from each of you. So, you know... lemme know."
I just want to know Who's Now.
thanks IAPPWD, but I'll probably just keep listening to my old albums and wait until the following Tuesday when the new Drop Kick Murphy's cd comes out.
@Upstate Underdog: Exactly.
Also, broken jaw ... bullet-filled body ... plucked eye.
Injuries are funny.
@GreatOdensRaven: That was so awesome in Drumline where they had the Drumline Drumoff at the end and they banged on each other's drums. God I miss high school and by "miss high school" I mean "wow did that portion of my life suck".
Anyways, Kanye feuding with 50 makes me long for older-school Jay-Z, which in turn makes me long for A Tribe Called Quest and a J5 reunion.
Bench Ankiel
Here's hoping they tie and both just go away. And, Poets and Pirates? Seriously? Can Chesney be any more of a #### Jimmy Buffett ripoff?
Did Idolator invade Deadspin under the guise of a Lemm Know story?
Um, yea...seems like I'm way in the minority on this, but that Kayne CD is actually pretty good. Not that I downloaded it already or anything...I mean, it's not out yet. How could I?
AJ's mustache is still the balls.
What kind of world do we live when out of those three Stuart Scott ISN'T the one who got shot 9 times?
@alumnigonzo: I can't believe anybody even bothered to comment after this. That so wins. +100
I thought it was that Jewish rapper 50 Sheckles?
It's like when Steve Harvey offered to "build a bridge" between feuding east coast/west coast rappers back in the day, and Chris Rock said "now somebody just needs to build a bridge between The Steve Harvey Show and the viewing public."
Only much much lamer.
About the release rivalry, Stu Scott said "you ain't seen nothin' till you're down on a muffin then you're sure to be a-changin' your ways."
Kayne and 50 just stared.
There’s Some Songs From The New Iron & Wine Album At The End Of This Post by Molly Lambert John Buccigross. He looks like Michael McDonald, yes?
