Here is my view on this downloading music off the net/bootlegs.
I recently asked my brother in law , who listens to mainly hip hop music, if he buys bootlegs or buys the original cd of an artist.
Here is what he said, I get a bootleg to check the cd out, if the cd is hot I go get the real deal.
I asked him why he did it that way , and he replied that no one wants to get stuck with a wack ass cd after paying up to $20.00 for.
I asked him what he condisered a wack ass cd? he replied , an album with only 1 or 2 good cuts.
He said if a cd album only has 1 or 2 good cuts he will not spend
$ 20.00 he rather wait to see if there is a single or downloading it. He also said I rather not download the music , because the quality sucks and can't compare to having the actuall cd with the pictures and alll the credits, he said the having the actuall real cd is better, but sometimes it's just not worth the money.
He gave me an example he had obtained the 50 cent cd as a bootleg and after hearing a couple hot tracks he went and purchased the real cd.
He said I don't mind spending the money if the product is hot.
I asked him would he buy freestyle/dance music or download it , he said at this point if you see new freestyle/dance product in a record store and it's a hot joint, buy it , because they are to far and few.
I let him listen to the entire Nu Image album and asked what he thought , if he would spend his money on the real deal?
He said The album is definately a hot album and new music and not because you're my brother in law, cause if it was wack I would tell you just the same.He said you have at least 9 tracks or better to buy this album for.
He said anyone into freestyle/dance that buys a bootleg or downloads your album and not purchase the real deal, will actually be working against what you are trying to do and thats bringing forth new music in such a small market.
He also said if your album does well, you better make the next one just as hot or better, he said because then chances of someone going straight to the record store and buying your music right off the bat is more likly to happen.
The bottom line is this, he said ,if your music/cd is hot people will buy it no matter what, but if your music/cd is ok , people might just want to have that 1 song and if ain't a single you better beleive a download version or bootleg is what they're going to look for.
Also keep in mind if they can't find the product in the store and they like it they will go where they have to go to get it.
So if you want to support our music and think it's worth the money , please go out and buy it, so we can keep bringing you more new music.
