you know that some people who pirate stuff still buy it, right?

Come on Sai you know those people are far and few. When you have the entire album downloaded you're not going to rebuy it later to show support. Not saying there aren't many who do, but I'm going to assume the majority who download are going to put it on their computers, iPhones, mp3 players and not buy another copy.
 
People were bigging up this BBC track? It's the worst on the album. And Nas sounds awkward and stuck on it. Doesn't mesh at all. He can't ride stuff like this at all.
 
Not really feeling the lyrics overall. They're just kind of there. Tom Ford sounds like some select your fighter type shit though. I'll definitely be giving it a full listen next week.

Your assumptions may lead you to be very much out of touch with the way music is consumed nowadays. I buy copies and keep using whatever ripped copy I got from the internet.

Piracy is still at high rates but I'd hardly call the percentage that actually buy something "far and few," especially when core fanbases for many artists will pirate it and then buy it when it comes out and those albums will still go platinum. Much of the industry doesn't even look at it like you do anymore; they have adapted and so have consumers in some senses. Music that touches lots of people still gets pirated to hell and back and still do gangbusters at retail.

Yes sir.
 
Beach is Better is certified castle music. That's the kinda shit I want on WTT2, assuming Jay ensures it's radio-friendliness.
 
Downloading Androzip or similar app and getting to:

Storage/Emulated/0/Music

gets you to the albums MP3 files in case anyone missed it.

I disagree. Most of the people I know who get rips/leaks also end up buying the album. I know that I do, because if I can find it on vinyl, I'll definitely pick up an album I like. Why pass up the chance to listen to it early though? I also go see all these people I like in concerts, which is an even better/more direct way of supporting them, usually.
