Eastsidaz promo here

[jay]

my opinion: it s dope , why should i be the only one who has the chance to listen to this shit
?

fuckit just release it

[Mr_Loc]

southbound is right. im not one to stick up for 2real EVER, but by putting it up in real audio it makes people want the cd. it isnt being selfish putting up RA's its being respectful of artists

if everyones got mp3s then who needs a cd. you want to share the wealth? go give to charity, dont steal from artists

FUCK bootleggers, all of em,  fuck em

[jay]

have yall ever seen snoops house???


that man s richer than richie...

he doesn t give  a FUCK about  mp3s or death row sites on the net...


last post on this topic ...

peáce 2 all

[Mr_Loc]

so what if snoops rich? that makes bootlegging okay?

excellent logic

[Don Seer]

ok - I understand when people say bootlegging is bad, but as I see it, (in this case at least) the purpose of a promo is to distribute it far and wide... isn't it better for the artist if the promo gets wider exposure?

on the wider thing.. i've bought lots of albums that I wouldnt have otherwise from previewing stuff, plus albums I cant find to buy, and its saved me from buying a brick a few times.

I think that when an album's release date is 17th July, you shouldn't hear any of it (apart from the single(s)) until the 17th July.

Safe

thankyou Jay, exactly my point

Promos are released for industry insiders for reviewing purposes/selecting tracks for radio etc

not for websites to impress their viewers with

[jay]

promos are good...

i buy all the cds anyways...

i m not bootleggin

[Nosak]

personnaly, i find tha promo are kool,, but they don't put them in mp3 format so it's doesn't matter if we can't download them,, plus if they could'nt display the name ,, that would be better cause they couldn't search for 'em if they didn't have tha titles,, u dig,,  i think promo's are another kind of publicity. For tha eastsidaz promo, fo sho that even without tha promo i would buy it,,, i love that song time and place and  nightmares but the album in general is fuckin dope. do u think it's tha final version, i don't think theres only 12 tracks on the album

[jay]

btw some of the songs of the promo are straight hot!

snoop s flow is fuckin awesome ...

reminds me of his old days...

engies, check this shit  some of the songs are pretty good

[So Much Style]

gimme some titles to check out, like the best ones, cause i dont wanna get all of them

[Don Seer]

nightmares

(suge knightmares? it sounds that way)

[Big BpG]

In my opinion a PROMO is for PROMOTION! That's why they release it, then they can figure out what songs to keep and what songs to not release ... I don't mind this at all, but what I do mind is leaking a FULL ALBUM before it's release. That's straight not cool, even though I can't resist but d/l them, I always buy the album. Always! I DOWNLOAD WHAT I LIKE ... I BUY THE SAME WAY  

[Nosak]

yeah that's how i'm thinkin to,,, you download what you want and u buy the album if u like the songs u heard b4... peace
