88-Keys: "Last album I downloaded for free (a.k.a. STOLE a.k.a. Shot another bullet in [hip hop] music industry) was Lupe's Food & Liquor.
Then I realized I was just contributing to the downfall of my industry (+ I realized I was hurting a friend & an incredible / hard working artist) so I went out & purchased the album on CD from Best Buy. Best $13 I spent. I felt good about myself.
Never have I downloaded or accepted a burned CD ever again. I'll only take free music from: 1. The artist themselves or 2. A person authorized from the label to give me a copy."
i really doubt that he never takes free music...that's a total lie. There's no way he buys EVERYTHING. So he's either bullshitting or doesn't listen to very much music.
ReplyDeletethats why i bought 88 keys album on zune marketplace.
ReplyDeletehow is he bullshitting cause he buys all of his music this nigga a celeb plus its just 13 bucks anybody could buy that cd's(unless they are poor) they just choose not too
ReplyDeletebut any same happened with me i felt bad about dl'ing f&l so about 3 months before the cool came out i went and bought it for 16 and when the cool came out i bought two copys i will always support lu no matter what
um...this nigga is not a celebrity...he probably sold 50,000 albums. He barely saw any of that money. Any person with a respectably sizable music collection could not afford it. Lets ay you have 400 albums. That's $5,000. Multiply that by the fact that CDs used to be like $17. Then what if you only wanted like one song...before itunes? How do you even know if shit's worth buying? FURTHERMORE WHO THE FUCK USES A CD PLAYER. There's no way he has never downloaded anything.
ReplyDeleteIf shit is dope and I support the artist hell ya i'll buy it...but I for damn sure downloaded it too.
WEAK
HE SAID AFTER FOOD AND LIQUOR why in the fuck would he have 400 albums AFTER f&l,f&l was the last cd he bought damn did you even read it plus you say who use a cd player,no said anything about a cd player its called buy the cd rip it and put it on itunes but you would know that if you bought cds and people who have cd players in their car use them
ReplyDeletethis nigga didnt say he bought every album he said he bought every album AFTER FOOD AND LIQUOR
This is funny. I got Food and Liquor for free from a friend when it first came out and it wasn't until a couple weeks ago that I bought the actual album. I like the guns in the place of books and vice versa thing in the booklet.
