Push back is so fucking pointless...why? They gain absolutely nothing by doing this. In fact they piss more people off. It's not like it would sell any more in April than it would in February lmao. Someone needs to tell Obie and his label that this decision is fucking stupid. I was looking forward to hearing this song and now it seems like I won't be hearing it until fucking March at the earliest. Wtf?

This song better become a single that gets released this month or something...this is ridiculous.

I read someone saying (possibly earlier on in this thread), that the song is to be released as a single. If that's true, then we should get it earlier than the release date. I think it's fairly likely, as the whole point of the singles is to promote and hype your album, so choosing an Eminem feature for that is a good idea, even if it's one of the poorer songs on the album, simply because Em has a large fanbase.

"Push-backs" of albums happens quite often... You'd think labels wouldn't do so if it wasn't in their best interest? (making money, selling more copies)... Right? Conclusion?

And... album sales are - actually - greater in April.

We don't know if it's a poor song yet...but anyway I think you're right. That's probably what will happen.

I know that, I'm not stupid. Many albums get pushed back. My point was the push back of THIS album, I feel, was pointless. Especially if it's already finished. I really don't believe sales for Obie would be too much different in April than Feb., no...that may be true for some artists but Obie isn't quite big enough for it to really make a huge difference.

Is amazon a reliable source?

[Kill You]

^ I don't believe so...

[SG.]

More to the point, has Obie said anything yet? He usually tweets it...

Nothing yet. I tweeted him, we'll see if he replies.

You'd think Obie would be the first person to announcement the push back...which is why it may or may not be a hoax.

[SG.]

I tweeted him too. I think if it was real he would've said something...

[Kill You]

Keep us updated on when he responds...really hoping this isn't true.

[Emadyville]

April Fools? lol

it wouldnt be funny tho

[UofLCard]

Probably amazon just being retarded.

Probably. They once had an official date for Relapse 2 (that kept on changing, of course).

[Kill You]

Well, since this has taken a while to be confirmed or denied, I'm assuming the April date is false?
