    gotcha

    to be honest i’ve never been super familiar with the mixing/mastering process. not entirely sure what the difference between the two is.

    some verses definitely need to be rerecorded

    It's just I pulled up the waveforms and it appears to be mixed already

    Some of the songs are still in its early stages though

  • You can find it on twitter in a mega folder. Just download the whole thing.

    Tuff Love and Night of the Roundtable are ass imo
    The rest is pretty good
    Unfinished leak so I can't complain much but we already heard most of the verses on the album which is sad

    This was supposed to drop in 2012. Does this mean the world is about to end

    no nation of islam references as far as i can tell.

    very good album. has act i vibes. not similar to a written testimony at all. blows my mind he wanted to drop that but not this.

    basically someone inside jay’s camp likely got a hold of it, and sold it/gave it to someone else. then it keeps spreading until someone either leaks it or sells it to the public. from my understanding the guy who leaked this has leaked many high profile songs/albums. dude likely has many connections to get a hold of these. once its up for sale (in this case $9K) either someone can just buy it for themselves or groupbuy is formed where a f*** ton of people pitch in until the goal is met (basically a gofundme for leaks)

    i could be wrong on some of that but thats the jist

    Thanks for clearing that up I will take a look. Seems so odd people can just leak this stuff and make so much money with no repercussions.

    if they go through the proper channels its pretty hard to figure out the identity of the leakers

    so why it never dropped again ?

    Sometimes I was held down by the gravity of my pen
    Sometimes I was held down by the gravity of my sin
    Sometimes, like Santiago, at crucial points of my novel
    My only logical option was to transform into the wind

    these guys arent just uploading the leaks on their personal soundclouds or anything. they deliberately take measures to conceal their identity

    also i could be wrong but pretty sure if they are international or live in a country where copyright laws arent very strong/nonexistant, its pretty hard to prosecute if they are found

    Not necessarily, I mean some of the songs got open verses and production wise are unfinished. But the other half are actually mixed, but didn't go through mastering yet

    “never finished” just means it was never released

    there’s no such thing as perfection when it comes to subjective art

    the only way to call an album finished is if the artist agrees to just put it out & stop touching it up

    True

    Let's look at the glass as half full, at least these unfinished songs gives a greater sense of rawness
