LOL...who remember's when Death Row leaked Da Last Meal?

[R-Tistic]

I was just thinkin about it...who all remembers when Death Row's website leaked "Da Last Meal" about three or four weeks before it came out? I remember it was the same time that Dead Man Walking came out, and they had something on the main page saying "which Snoop album is better? Listen for yourself!!" and for Last Meal, they had a link to download the whole CDQ album in MP3, but for DMW, you could only listen to Real Audio snippets, LOL.

For those who did DL it, do y'all remember it being out of order, and not having "Go away" on it?

[Rud]

yup i remember that! think i have a screenshot of it somewhere...might be on my other network though...classic move by DR! yea if i remember right it was in a completely different order and did it not miss a few tracks that were on the retail?

[d-nice]

Yeah I remember this. It was all over the news as well. It's funny because back then their was a real debate as to what album was better and alot of people were picking DMW. They pretty much used his marketing to promoter DMW by saying it is the same artist, listen to him in his prime.

This is why they rushed the album out in Europe. I've got an OG European pressing with a different back cover and credits to the later retail. "Hennessey & Buddah" is different on the album too. Kind of interesting. Priority and No Limit were clearly shitting themselves.

  That's Suge!

Lol they did the same thing with Daz when he was about to release "This is the Life I Live". And I believe Daz leaked the "Dys-Funk-Tional Family" soundtrack.

"Hennessey & Buddah" is different on the album too.

How so?

You say Death Row wanted to release "Tha Last Meal"? I know Snoop made "The Last Meal" track in Death Row, but I didn't know about whole album!

No...read again...they LEAKED the album illegally on the death row website, 4 weeks prior to the No Limit street date

Not much... the gunshot sound effect is missing on the OG and maybe something else that I can't remember off the top of my head. But even that change is pretty crazy considering they obviously went back and re-pressed the album for later versions just for that one alteration.

The label made them do a immediate closure of the links.
