I'll definately Say That Yes, Downloads Never Sound Anywhere As Good.  It's Not Even Close If You Have A Good System To Begin With.  Nothing Like The O.G.

Aight first off, big big BIG thankyou to everyone who has ordered the cd online or is waiting for it to come out in stores, all the support is very much appreciated by everyone at Flawless Music Entertainment.

-If you ordered from CDNow/Amazon, your shit should be on its way very soon. the distributor got the cds last week so its just a matter of days.
-Everyone who ordered directly from FlawlessMusic.com, your cd has been sent, keep an eye on the mailbox.
-People waiting for it to come out in stores, should be another few weeks. Nothing we can do about it right now, so just sit tight.


And all of these comments are dope, good to see everyone's viewpoints, real interesting. I'm sure you can imagine how difficult it is to put out an album independently, we're doing everything in-house. But its worth it, we've been getting some very good feedback on the album and it should just be a matter of time (and more hard work) before Contraversy and FME start to blow the fuck up. Keep watching, and supporting!



keep the comments rolling...

This is what I do...i remember in a Source Article interview with Dr. Dre...they asked..how does he find new artist..and producers..........

He said something like he listens to the intro of songs for like the first 15 or 30 seconds....if it doesnt peak your interest...in that amount of time......it aint worth it......

so that is what i do.....there are some songs on the radio..and im sure all of you know..when u hear it....u start to change the dial..and look for another station...then there are those songs..that when u switch the dial station..only hear the end of the song..and u r like damn..that shit is tight..i need to hear the full song....those are the cd's i buy....

Snoop proved himself.. Deep Cover.........with that flow...everybody..was like..holy shit....

and that is what it takes for me to listen to someone knew...they need to have a cut..that stand above the rest....and if its flowin..and the beat is tight....i will get it.....

shit..i just finally picked up...ludacriss.....first CD......its alright..i only picked it up..cause i like area codes.....and he proved himself to me..so i will support and buy his first album..and his next album..that is coming out.....

That Dre article in the Source you mentioned, the one where he left Death Row is my favorite interview of all time, and always will be.

I buy an album based on the single and other tracks. If I can't live without it I buy it simple as that.

If it sounds good to me I'll buy it...If it's west coast the beats better be good. I would love a combination of dope beats and lyrics, but that doesnt happen to often with underground acts. If the snippetz I hear sound dope to me, I'll buy it...But I already ordered this album, and if you are a west coast hip hop fan, you should do the same as well...

I have an idea about how you could promote it. In the east there are so many mix tapes it's not hard to miss new artist. This is how most artist are promoted.....through freestyles that display there skills, or lack there of. Honestly I don't think alot of people will pay attention to you unless you give them a free cd or something from a known artist and then sell them the controversy cd with it. I have been busy lately but I'll check it out.........though/

i think all u gotta do is  slap a link of some real audio up  when u promote an artist or group .  cuz  ill be honest  i really could give 3 shits  about it  if   the promoter is just  like  "YO COP THIS NEW ALBUM BY  DJ DICKSWINGER !!!  ITS BLAZIN!!"
and they should also tell the people  where the  artist is from .......  like if their from  L.A.  ......  then shit ill check it out  fo sho.  or if they feature some dope artists that we already know ...... thats also very good.  

but yeah i think the best thing is  the real audio clips  .......  cuz all it takes  is a  mouse click on our part  .....  then its all uphill from there    8)
