    Most artist dont make that much money of record sales anyways. So in a round about way, artist should be happy cause its their record company (that they usually hate & complain about), are the ones losing money while they make money on tour.


    I read artist dont really make money of dropping singles. Singles are basically an advertisement/promo/ or basically a commercial to let people know your albums out their.

    *the exception to the rule would be if you own your own company of course

    As long as u listen u have right to complain especially if it's always free music.
    I never complain abt artist I fck with like K.R.I.T or Cole or Future
    But Desiigner, Lil UziVert, Young Thug can get all the way tf outta here

    I don't know about hiphop,but it's a gift for me,you know how many times i got burn buying album hearing a good single and that was the only good song on there.
    Or how many of you'll bought a album from a artist you didn't know because it had a cool as cover,pop that cd in and you skip thru the whole cd lol.
    So i buy and bootleg my favorite artist albums and i download others,but if it sound good to me i'll go out and buy it still.
