agreed 100%

most of the time its because we don't have the authorization from the label/artist

Be happy with what you get. Without these people you wouldn't even know about the existence of these songs. Posting full length songs is illigal and you're only stabbing the artist in his back.

Yea, Just Buy the CD with the track on it when it comes out

In some cases thats all that's been made available such as Nate Dogg's Dolla Dolla Bill. In other's.. some cat's hold out cuz maybe it makes them feel like they have one up on others.. or maybe a false since of power or something cuz they got people gettin at em beggin! I don't know..
I’ve always been down for sharing shit if I got it like most others, especially if it’s hot but most of us always try to emphasize supporting.
In some cases dudes is just honestly excited cuz some shit is hot, and they just cant keep it to themselves cuz they fiendin for some feedback. They wanna share the emotion more so then the track. (maybe they promised not to give it out and we've all been there before, but damn its just too hot to keep all bottled up.. feel..?) Does that make the person bad? Maybe not.. I dont know..
Dont hate em, just keep mashin. Theres plenty of good music to be shared, supported and purchased.
Dont just settle for a simple reason and start hatin on someone for not giving out a track. There could be many legitimate reasons so again, just say thank you for what you ended up getting and keep mashin.

And plus, if you see that its a snippet then dont even click on the link ;)

yeah, but I still would love a full version of "There She Goes" by Nate Dogg, Quik, and Warren G :-\

agreed... i love to buy records but nothing beats the buzz of fiending n sampling something new / fresh / exciting ...hearing it then getting it (if ya can)

I agree with this, but there's nothing that pisses me more off than when a artist leeches a snippet from a upcoming album, and the album gets delayed 100 times, or it might not end up on the album at all.
That should be illegal.

man i was watching an episode of south park two weeks ago (i think) and it was right...
it had a part with the RIAA arresting the kids because they downloaded music, the agent then went around hollywood showing the kids what they had done.
first it showed Slash sitting in this big back yard of a mansion crying...they asked him why he was crying and the man said it was cause people downloaded his music, he's not able to afford his olympic size swimming pool
then it showed britney spears getting on a plane sad. the kids asked why she sad, the man replied that because of downloading, britney spears sould no longer afford a big private jet, she had to downsize and get a smaller jet without a bar in it.
artists are some greedy bastards. if they really cared about thier music, they'd get after the music stores that sell their cd's for $20.00. when cd's were 12.99 i'd buy them all the time, but fuck that now. i'm gonna pay $20.00 for 3 songs that i like. i can buy a DVD of a movie i want for that much and get way more use from it.
aside from that, i know there's laws of sharing unauthorized music...but that shouldn't stop people from sharing one or two songs.....doesn't stop any of us from downloading and keeping that paris hilton sex tape if judges rule in her favor.
and being thankful we just got a snippet? please, are you thankful when you see a commercial for a movie or a videogame? fuck no, you want that shit

couldn't agree more...especially about that last comment

WORD @ smerlus :o

Someone could also decide to keep it for himself and then you'd never hear ANYTHING from the song. Also if the whole song leaks (too early), 95% chance it won't get released.

if i don't know it exists than i won't want it. i thought that was common sense. you don't see people saying "yo i want that 2pac, ice cube and crooked i song produced by dj quik with nate and butch cassidy on the hook.......cause there's no such thing.
if it gets released early and doesn't make the cd....oh well then we'll get a different song on the cd which may or may not be better than the one we have. it's not like if we get 6 songs early they're just gonna cut out those 6 songs and give us a cd with 5 songs on it (unless you're knoc-turn'al)

Yo, i got a snippet 8) j/k, i agree with u 100%
-
last thing i'm gonna say about this is.....if you own a website ex: dubcnn, westcoast2k, etc... then i agree you shouldn't give out whole songs without permission....or if you know the rapper personally
but the rest of you people that happen across it by chance and download it and you don't share it, you're just trying to get some cheap power trip...and you make people ask for it you're not making friends, they're gonna d/l it from you and still think you're a cock sucker....
-
so if you don't own a (main) site you shouldn't keep anything for yourself? ::)
-
so if you don't own a (main) site you shouldn't keep anything for yourself? ::)
why do you feel you need to be the only one with a copy of the song?
1. you're not gonna get sued if you leak it correctly so don't say shit about the law....
2. if you have a hot song people are still going to buy the cd. leaking a hot song does nothing to sales
3. if you post a snippet and have the whole song and you don't have a website, or don't know the artist personally, you just want attention, which is pretty damn sad
so tell me, what kind of kicks do you get from owning a song that no one else has? you can't say how good it is cause no one else heard it and no one else knows it exists....
-
Cause it's not up to anyone but the artist/record company to release songs. It's their copyright, not yours.
-
right... this has gone kinda off topic in a way... regardless of the rights or wrongs of doing it.. the ~facts~ (to the best of my knowledge) about this particular song are as follows...
Mike dean himself gave WC Rydaz a snippet of the song to post up.
Now.. since Mike dean is the person that produced it for nate, and that he's getting paid for it you think he's gonna leak that shit? hell no.
He's doing what this shits supposed to be about, he's promoting himself + the artist he's done work for.
So quit bitching coz acting like a fuckin baby and crying about not having the full thing coz is gonna get u nowhere, and to be honest with an attitude like that people will leave you the fuck alone anyways. check yourself.
and something else..
I know for a fact that some of the sites mentioned in these posts have shit you would cream your pants over.. but they're under trust.. you wont get anywhere in this game if people dont trust you. and like someone pointed out above.. if u dont know what exists you're better off until 'its time'.
-
so none of you have a single song on your hard drive without owning the cd...cause if you do you're breaking the law. so quit acting righteous and being hypocritical at the same time...cause it doesn't mean shit
and as for your post overseer i'm agreeing with you totally, it wouldnt make sense for your website to get a song then put it all over because you won't get any more
-
That's not the point; I dld music all the time. But try to look through the eyes of the person that posts the snippet...
-
yup..
but there are levels of sharing.. giving a song to some thankless ass just because they demand it isnt sharing... i give people shit i have if i have it, and people give it to me because we know what goes around comes around.. the wcc irc people already know that, they'll also know i'll boot people who -only- come to get mp3 hookups ;)
-
Yeah what Overseer said....and plus, if people leak a full song long time before the cd drops it gets old & played out real quik, and you aint gonna bump it as much as if it was new...a perfect example is Hi-C's "let Me know" or "do it"...let me know been out for more than a year and do it for more than 6 months. people played them so much they wont sound new when the cd drops next Tuesday...But, if they would have leaked a snippet, lets say without the quik verse or somthing, people would be hyped cause there is something to look out for. they heard the song but not the full thing, so they want more. Hope that made sense
and if youre a person who hates snippets dont even click on the link :-*
we give you something but u want more and more, that aint right
-
I personally hate snippits and I don't check them. But I don't see anything wrong wit posting them. some peeps like them. I know lil Jay ain't stingy and he hooks up the songs, same wit Nima. But like they said, sometimes they can't hook up the full song, for various reasons, not because they are stingy assholes. There are some peeps who are stingy, and brag about what they got, but won't share, Fuck those people.

Hey, do you have mp3s ??
Could you send some ?
:P

lol.. its normally "who got rare death row mp3s" lol

i'll say this right off the bat. none of you have ever or will ever ask you guys for a track personaly. frankly i don't get that big of a kick out of music anymore that i have to spend my time beggin for the shit....
but i find it funny how you guys get a sense of power over sharing songs...
1st. there has never been, will never be a song that would make me cream my pants.... sorry i don't care who is on the song (i will however mute the fuck out a britney spears or christina aguilera video ;D)
2nd. i could care less about what you guys thought about me if i didn't download songs from you....shit you can make a special arrangement to give every poster on this bored the ability to diss me and make my karma go down -50 with every click....i don't care, i'm here to read news and shoot the shit and i could care less what you think about me
3rd. and some of you guys take having a website or admin privileges too seriously. i'm glad that you guys don't have improtant jobs like mayor or some shit because that would go straight to your head...talking about "i will boot people....." so? unless you can kick me off the internet for the rest of my life, you're not phasing me and you don't have any real power except over the feeble minded music junkies.

read the whole thread, it usually helps.
see if you take just one post out of a thread, you might not get the whole idea just a small portion...just for future reference
