What do y'all think about Em's new album leaking today?
Intentional?
Intentional?
I don't believe in accidental leaks any more. Its marketing because the know the real money don't come from sales these days.
Mac leaked, Drake leaked, and now Em.
It ain't leaking just modern day marketing.
What's the purpose of leaking it early?
I don't see any marketing benefits and album sales don't really benefit either.
Well all three of those artists I mentioned did solid numbers. I even think it helped Mac to not get caught up in the J Cole/Kanye hype. I think it gives you some unofficial pre-buzz if your a big artist (u heard track so and so). Plus true fans are going to buy it, so it don't matter. And this week nobody major is dropping in hip-hop-good timing.What's the purpose of leaking it early?

Cool. Music is free what a wonderful world.You made me curious so i googled it and this is what i got -
New Study Says Leaked Albums From Popular Artists Lead To More Sales | Techdirt
Now the question, should i listen to the album now or wait for my cd to arrive...
Got it last night...
I repeat...people should NEVER have Part 2's to albums, unless it's truly a multiple part, PLANNED experience.
Agree 100%. Never understood why people called stuff part 2 that doesn't have the same feel as 1.....besides the desperation.
Like Snoop coming out with Doggystyle 2 without Dr.Dre...........without WBALLZ........without some kind of funk reference.....and the first single is a trap beat.
It's like I never understood why a person feel they should bring up old songs of a person that they have featured on a song. It takes away from the song IMO. Scarface can't feature on anybody song without some other rapper on it mentioning mind playing tricks or some shit. Shit is corny to me. Or if Pac has a new album featuring artist........why doesn't somebody tell the rapper NOT TO ACT LIKE a fan boy? The song is about police brutality.....not your love for Pac....save that shit for your album and rap about police brutality.
Speaking of Pac.....I was thinking the other day that I would LOVE for his new album to be mainly produced by Quik and Raphael Saadiq. I would make that happen. BUT....of course we need all the extra shit to make it more 2013 logical.....got to soften it all up a bit for the fragile people. Shit is all Nickelodeon Awards now, B!!!!
i say this by far, yeezus was actually enjoyable after a few listensBeautiful Pain is the only shit I turned the volume up on.
But man...that was one awful album. I'm not sure what's worse, Yeezus or this. Wtf.
