Hip Hop has always been like this guys.
There's the street single/promo which is often released first, then there's the official single.
Like for example, DOA was Jay's street single (promo) for BP3, and then Run This Town was the official single.
For Detox it makes even better sense, considering Kush leaked was from all reports almost never going to be released at all.
I'm just very disappointed that the suspense and hype for this song was ruined for us by some internet geek like that rapbasement douchebag or whoever it is. Could you just imagine if it was released the way they intended for it be released? It would have blown the roof. But now, this will always have an asterisk next to it because some Eminem fans encouraged a cocksucker of the highest order to do what he does best.
