Can someone please tell me if this rumour is true because for one I don't believe it for one second. West is a complete nobody whereby MJ was known and still is worldwide and sold millions compared to West.

I nearly had a fit when I heard this

Kanye West has sold over 21 million albums and 66 million digital downloads worldwide

Michael did this with 'Thriller' alone estimated sales of 65 million copies worldwide,total sales estimated over 350 million records worldwide

So not true although Kanye may beat him on downloads only..

In his dreams.

a quick google will confirm it. kayne is far from a nobody, he's one of the most famous people in the world

what is more surprising is lil wayne has 69 - sixty nine hits!

and drake has over 70 top 100 hits

It's hardly a rumour if it can be disproved with about 5 seconds of research.

Kanye is not a nobody though, he's one of the biggest selling rappers ever.

'the Chicago MC still has some way to go until he surpasses some of the other great male solo acts. Marvin Gaye and Chris Brown are ahead of West with 41 and 42 top 40 hits respectively, while Jay Z has 45 and Drake has a whopping 53. Artists can accumulate a higher number of top 40 singles through collaborations.'
