I understand that Ghetts must be pissed.. I would be, but the show must go on.
Stop acting like a pre-madonna and go and promote your CD so you can sell some more physical copies and meet your fans.
Leaking's gonna happen anyway it's a shame ,but it goes with the territory.
The only one's exempt from leaking are the artist that nobody cares about.
"Uptown and Ghetto" let it go and move forward,
This scene is way too small for this bullshit, we should be building bridges not burning them.

Props to you Retrofreak.
Always talking sense.
I agree, life goes on.

7th March '08, 10:39 PM
All i will say is we tried our best to convince it to go ahead but they felt it was best not to. Again i feel it was completely blown out of proportion! We got the cds from distributor, they didn't say dont sell it so we did, then they contact us saying oh actually we where told you wernt suppose to. So we said cool and took it off the shelf. Really wasn't crime of the century lol

if the release date was monday, why would you release it before the date.
So your the reason, some hardcore ghetto fans are not able to see him .....
*SMH*

But you must have seen the posters, it just needs a little common sense.
Jenai
7th March '08, 10:46 PM
common sense not to release it lol? this has already been explained so wont go over it again! but even if it wasnt put out on weds we where going to put it out on sat as agreed with ghetts so it would of either been leaked on thursday or sat which is still before release date. No one told Ghetto not to come and i feel its completely been blown out like i said.

Uptown are a INDEPENDANT record store, they don't keep to release dates which places such as HMV, play etc.
If their not told that they shouldn't be selling the CD by the distributers then why shouldn't they sell them.
Retrofreak is right, this should have been overlooked by Ghetto and the appearance should have happened, now there gonna be fans pissed they didn't get to go along and get their cd signed, making both Uptown and Ghetto look bad.

Retrofreak
7th March '08, 11:33 PM
There's been too much knee jerking over this error.
It work's both ways.
If FOS had bigger songs that worked on radio the spins alone would ensure the CD's popularity and the leaking will just contribute to the hype.
The fact is this is a road CD with little in the way of good hooks ,so I doubt it's gonna go far anyway.
