    It’s really sad tho. Man ima find that interview I was watching. But essentially the “double album” was another way the labels used to finesse artists before the mixtape. Where you make 2 albums, and they package it as one, but on your contract it only counts as one

    Yeah cause after like 12-13 tracks you was basically adding tracks for free/wasnt making additional profit off of making mad long albums

    But you know niggas don’t read contracts so you in the studio putting in work thinking you about to satisfy this deal quicker turns out you still got 3 albums left after 5 years

    It’s terrible bro. And you can even see most artists fall off happen after a massive run of like 2-3 double albums in that era. It’s kinda crazy when you just look at it

    @Jim_Halpert_ very interested in what you think about this tbh

    There is no distinction while streaming is the only way people listen to music.
