Quote from: JohnnyL on March 14, 2009, 07:31:01 PMUnfortunately that's what has kept it unleaked for this long. Every time it's changed hands, huge sums of money seem to be involved. No one wants to leak it because they've invested so much of their own money into it. That's why it's unfortunate things didn't work out with Los Skanless. I was hoping it was finally go from one person paying a shit load of cash to many people, each paying a small amount.MY POINT EXACTLY, SINCE IT WASN'T THEM SPENDING A MASS AMOUNT OF CASH THEN THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND IT....LOS HAD GOOD INTENTIONS....BUT THE HATERS AND BITCHEZ GOT HIM TO CHANGE HIS MIND....

yea honestly we know the guy who sold Losskans the cd didnt sell him the ONLY copy, so i dunno why homies not trying to Capitoline off it now. LIKE I SAID IF YOU GOT THE CROOKED I CD EMAIL ME, PM ME, WHATEVER... I WILL RELEASE IT ALL OVER, PRESS IT Up, STICK IT IN STORES, YOU WILL MAKE ASHITLOAD OF MONEYPLAIN AND SIMPLE
thankls for ya input but its not as it seems sometimeslet me touch on the crooked i cd, 1st and foremost crook is my homie, has been for a few... i brokered a few deals with him (one being the GMG deal they offered him that we turned down). Crook doesnt have allot of his deathrow material. and from what he told me at the time it was something he wasnt interested in getting involved with, of course if i did get it and did make money he wasnt gonna complain about getting checks but he just didnt wanna get involved at the time. as far as ITB releases, the shit in the bank was selling was strictly on IN THE BANKs website. We didn't press up hundreds of cds to put them in the stores. our main objective was to just sell on ITB website. As for Inside death row vol 1 being in stores we do plan on that. we had it preped for instore sales but we ended up leaving the distributor that we had and got a new 1. thats why the listing on amazon says "Discontinued" trust me when we release it it will be everywhereI mean we have dozens of cds IN STORES worldwide (Stores like best buy, target, fye, virgin music stores and more) Albums from Cyssero, Omillio Sparks, Roscoe and the Armory Gang. If the one nation album does well digitally im sure they will press it up and put it in stores as well.The reason every release AINT in stores well.... it costs money for shelf space, retail co-op marketing its not as easy as sending a box of cds and saying "Put this on the floor"
How are people going to say "Oh he needs to make his money back it makes no sense to leak it."What's he doing now? Sitting on it playing it in his bedroom, he tried selling it, couldn't do it, now leak it. That simple. Or sell it and leak it. Simple.
BTW, if Crook was your homie, Snonuff, you'd know he has said so many times now that Say Hi To The Bad Guy is NOT coming out until Boss or his official retail album drops. Period. I know this for a fact.So, if you do sell it before then, I don't see how you are acting on Crook's behalf.
I emailed Losskan a few times we went back and forthe he wanted me to pay 1300 for the cd and buy it from him i wasnt interested, If im gonna cover the cost to press and promote the album in mot gonna pay 1300 on top of that... thats just asinine. Ive emailed FTP they never responded back.People dont understand theres a huge genre outside of this board, japan, cali, florida, australia, all over the world where people have no clue what dubcnn is..... its the reality of it. These guys are selling in they "backyards" on here.... They put it on itunes and instores opens the sales floor to the entire worldsome people just hustle backwards
With all due respect to Crooked, I can't understand what he's thinking here. If he has all this material that he wants to get paid for doing, then don't sit on it anymore. Put it out and get paid.

Put it out and get paid.I know what Crooked is thinking....the skye is gonna fall down and there is gonna be some magic 10 million dollar contract handed to him by Mc Hammer for his B.O.S.S album and he is gonna be the biggest superstar after Lil Wayne.C'mon now, Crooked is just stupid and thinks he is gonna get some 100 times better distribution contract than what he has been offered. He could've easily put out 3 albums with good quality & got some good independent money for it but NO, he has to wait for the big opportunity that is never coming.
It's my understanding that Crook is going to release his Death Row material for free in the future, but wants his newer material put out first. He doesn't want the Death Row thing being his first release. He worked hard to step out of their shadows and doesn't want to premier that first... That's just what I've heard. We can only speculate about what will really end up happening.By the way, as far as the LSN thing goes, this is my take on it. When DRF said he was selling it, LSN hit me up and asked if I wanted to go half or at least find a third party to split it up with him. He stated that we would purchase it and leak it for the fans because he claimed to be a big fan himself. However, I was skeptical, because I didn't know DRF or LSN and didn't really know if it was possible to trust a forum member that I didn't know with that much money. Additionally, I was really short on cash when all that was going on and had a lot of stuff to work through. So it wasn't possible for me and I backed out. However, to make a long story short, LSN's story changed up A LOT during the whole process where it finally turned out he was trying to sell copies for $27 a pop, $35 (w/ shipping and handling) which is unnecessarily high. So, let's see... 500 copies X $35 = $17,000. No way, I wasn't going to support someone caking like that off another man's work. That's why I'm kind of negative about the whole thing. It started out as a way to get the fans music they been wanting to hear for YEARS to a business venture. I wasn't down with that.So, for those reasons and others that aren't listed, I don't think people should be putting the blame on those who simply questioned or hated on dude...
