Do not bootleg/download the new Xzibit, come in here let me convince you

[djkoast]

Real talk, do not bootleg or downlaod the new Xzibit.  And no I don't believe the people who say "ill download it and if its good Ill buy it" because more times then not people don't end up going and buying it.    I'll give you solid reasons why as I heard it just has been leaked to the Internet.....

#1 - He is trying to do his independent thing, the more people who are are independent the better hip hop as a whole will be.  You will have artists with more say instead of some 50 year old white guy who listens to Aerosmith and Bon Jovi saying what or what is not quality HIP HOP music.

#2 - The tracks that have been leaked and the performance he did the other night for 'Thank You' should convince you that it is worth spending the 10 or 14 dollars on.  The album is going to be solid.  I'll put my screen name up on that one.

#3 - He is a westcoast artist and you guys want to see the westcoast do well right?  Help the westcoast do well, AGAIN, on the independent tip.  We did it for Cube and we got a hell of an album.

#4 - If he seems people supporting him when he returns to stronger concepts and better lyrics (less catchy stuff) then he is going to continue to make that music.  If the industry sees guys like Xzibit and Cube putting out alot more concepts in their tracks then maybe they will not force MCs to do the same old shit for 75% of their albums.

what about downloadin when its leaked and buying when its out 

[djkoast]

what about downloadin when its leaked and buying when its out 

We all know that rarely happens.  I really don't care what anyone says.  If it was true that people who download always buy quality albums then people who have suffered from bootlegging would have done better, like say Boot Camp Cliq, Mack 10, and heck even Ice Cube.    I've even said this myself and I don't always go out and buy the album.  Not because I am being cheap but because I kind of forget to make time when the album is already playing in the CD player.  In fact if I didn't collect vinyl there is alot of albums I never would have bought that were good.

Whats good Tech?

You guys want to download something?

http://www.dubcnm.com/audio/2006/october/xzibit-thank_you-(dubcnn).mp3

There ya go, download that.  Think about what he is saying in the track and then think about returning that 'Thanks' by buying the album.  If we want hip hop to change for the better....we have to put the consumer dollar behind more quality work.

For real! Personally when my favorite artists drop albums I only download some of the songs...better for the suprise and showin' the support.

wont be downloading it but will be buying it.

#3 - He is a westcoast artist and you guys want to see the westcoast do well right?  Help the westcoast do well, AGAIN, on the independent tip. 

Not a good enough reason for me.  The West Coast isn't doing well cause a lot of its artists right now are washed-up, has-beens, and their music is lackluster.  If it's good music, I'll buy it.  If not, then these cats might want to try doing new shit other than convincing people they still C-Walkin at Age 40.

[WestCoasta]

I downloaded it yesterday...


it's okay.... I don't know if I wanna get it... I only spend my hard earned money if it's filled with good tracks


that's why I've only bought like 30 CD's in my life

Yup, I agree with djkoast btw. I'm pretty sure the album will be worth the money...I may not like Concentrate but he made that song to have at least SOME commercial appeal. I think the rest of the album will be on a different level.
