Everyone Must Buy Kanye West's New Album 9/11/07!!!

[Colossal Spoons]

I was already gonna buy Kanye's album....now I'm gettin two.

 

[AndThePickles]

I doubt 50 will actually stay true to this bet though

 

[Speedball]

LOL!
I was about to do that.t:
How about you save your money, and don't buy either albums from these "artists".

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Well the Kanye one will actually me good

 

[gap5ewl]

Hows about we don't by neithers album (after all this is just publicity for each of them to sell obscene amount of records) and end ignorant, coperate rap all together. Besides, this is just the popular music of the decade. Once the 2010's come, rap will pretty much whither away on the popular music charts for new, crappier music to take its place. That's how the cycle goes.

Get rich or die trying was single handedly the best cd ever when it came out. before you bought it you knew it was going to be the best cd. The massacre sucks ass, and the crap he did to the game made me hate him more. Kanye is good, and i'll prob buy it since i love the other 2 cd's.

What!?

 

[Assassin]

yea, that first day I had it, at that time, it wa sthe greatest cd ever

 

[dr venture]

I don't know about the greatest CD ever but I will admit I did get caught up in the 50 Cent hype when came and I thought that CD was good. But then later I came to my senses and realized how much he sucked

 

[Colossal Spoons]

The CD is amazing...but damn.

 

[Assassin]

it was the first cd since michael jackson that i could listen to through out, the kanye's cd came out, and that one did the same thing.

 

[xwolverine2]

kanye is probably laughing because no matter what he wins...

 

[Bill]

Yes.

Well, not anymore, as I just quit, and yesterday was my last day.

But, save for a break of about a year, I've been working at a record store since 2001.

I'm not anti-downloading. I am anti-downloading in lue of buying a CD.

It's more than just working at a record store, as well. It's also being a fan of music. Downloading has destroyed music. Music doesn't sell anymore. The record companies, needing to juice as much as they can out of record sales, now instead go for "safe bets", and artists never go outside the box anymore and do their own thing. They all stick with the same formula that will get them on MTV, and get them whatever sales they can get.

I'd blame the artists for making a 12 song CD with only 2 decent singles, and the record companies for charging $16 bucks for those 2 listenable singles. Downloading is out there because people don't want to pay overinflated prices for an album with generally poor quality. I'd say that's why music doesn't sell anymore.

There must be some conspiracy amongst producers and artists in the various genres because most pop and rap tends to sound like everything else in their respective genres, and they rarely write their own music tending to "sample" the music of others. There's not much originality and true talent left in the business. Why give them my hard-earned dollar; they who don't work to earn theirs.

I had to skip "21 Questions" everytime.

Which Kanye CD? Late Registration was poop. College Dropout FTW!

 

[Assassin]

i liked both, the first was better though

 

[SapphirePrima]

This is silly come on how many people actually buy cd's any more? Just download. CD's are a waste of money.


The last CD I bought was Mariah Carey's Empacation of Mimi. Now that was classic. :heart:

 

[JP]

Why would i let kanye west win this bet? He already has a gigantic ego that i don't want to add to. I'll buy kelly clarkson

For real.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

I buy CDs from 4 or 5 artists out of support.

that's like 40-50 dollars you could of spent on something like food or movies :

It's like that one South Park episodes. Does Britney really need that high class jet?

 

[Colossal Spoons]

But these CDs come out like once every 2 years. I'm not hurtin for cash that badly.

What are you buying greatest hits

 

[Colossal Spoons]

What are you buying greatest hits

Nah. Jay-Z, Ludacris and Eminem are must buys for me. They don't put out CDs often enough for me to really notice how much cash I'm losing.

 

[Zero_Vault]

Kanye fell off.

His musics getting ever worse.

He's whack now just like Em.

 

[Zero_Vault]

Good as a producer.

****ty rapper.

Oh, well that reasonable. It's not like you're buying T-Pain's cd.
