FUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

JAY SOUNDING HUNGRY AS FUCK

TMB sounds tamed ;(

Honestly, those snippets kind of de-hyped me a bit. I was ready for some brash production and blaring drums in my ear, but it all sounds so.. tame.

This is what you get for over-listening to shitty quality snippets D:

They work fine in Firefox for me. Click play? Or enable scripts on Ticketmaster if your using Noscript or something.

Jesus christ... N***as in Paris.

Wow, the production sounds good on those samples, but honestly Jay sounds lame, except on Murder to Excellence. Hype low, as always.

I don't know, after blaring TMB in my ears so long, Elly Jackson's voice isn't getting me that same eargasm anymore since it's been tuned down compared to the beat :(

Regardless, I'm not listening any more until it's out. Still super hyped. Going to bed now in fact.

I'm sad. I have no self control and will probably listen to these snippets nonstop for a good long time. I almost wanted to go in without having hearing any HQ leaks. Dammit.

I hope Ye and Hov eventually talk about how they made this album leak proof, I'm really curious.

We already know...

1. They didn't email any songs
2. Whenever they recorded, they sent a HDD with the songs with a trusted engineer or friend to take it to the artist they want to collaborate with.
3. Or if they pleased, they flew to, or flew in the collaborator.
4. iTunes digital release first. Allowed them to delay physical disc pressing, which is where an album almost always gets leaked.

I might have missed something.

they were really careful. i bet there's only 1 or 2 copies of the actual album out there right now. the master, a backup, and one that's going to be sent to itunes/digital companies.

just really simple and they realized it's not that hard to keep things from leaking if done right.

all the versions on youtube were sped up so that they wouldn't trip the shazam-style infringement detector.
