I want to show him that respect. I don't think his pain is about the money. He knows he has money. It's about having something you worked really hard on and that is very important to you and personal stolen and just put out there for the whole world. Then to have your own fans begging for more leaks has to hurt. It makes me feel horrible about the whole Koolo thing. Just like he says in Take From Me, music is his life, and it means so much to him, so when it's stolen, it hurts. It has nothing to do with money.


You said it sister :y:

An album once a year? People should just buy whatever they like, not only to support the artists but also because you're technically a thief until you've actually bought it and have the right to listen so to speak. And I'm no saint myself but I do buy 99 % of all the stuff I like after having downloaded it first. I use illegal downloading as a way of hearing if the music "fits" my taste, just like I don't buy jeans before having tried wearing them first.

Having said that, music is a luxury thing, and I understand if some people can't afford spending money on it if they're jobless or whatever.

This doesn't apply to me because I buy every album even if I download it for free, however, I do see his point, but what happened to him saying in that interview about Relapse saying "I don't care if it leaked I just hope people like it and I'll be cool."
