How are Jay-z and Kanye stopping their album from leaking before Aug 8th?

[Jakez]

They always leak a week or two early, because of shipping to stores I guess, but you STILL can't find it anywhere.

Jay said in an interview that they took special care to make sure it didn't happen. Pretty impressive I'd say, I wonder how they did it?

Probably had something to do with gathering everyone in a room and explaining about caps and asses.

No one's ever said Jay-Z isn't a brilliant business man, just a horrible rapper.

Illuminati .. duh?

[Jakez]

I believe that in todays internet age the leaks do not cause as much harm as people think, if any, and that's why there is never any real concern on stopping a major album from leaking. Surely if it's possible to stop the leaks (as they've done with this album) then other major album drops like Eminem and such would have done the same. I think they do their best to stop an album from leaking months before hand but allow them to leak a week or so before so people can start talking about it and buzz it up just before release..

Illuminati .. duh?

Lol.. that's just a bunch of internet garbage... OR IS IT?

Everything is planned, Leek=marketing

Supposedly every producer/engineer got a custom rolex.

Maybe that kept it from getting leaked...

[StickyGreen]

By the way I've heard a couple tracks and it's trash, those 2 need to give it up...

i wish someone would crash a plane into those two fuckers.

If you know where to look you will be able to find it.

Yeah, in stores on Aug 8th lol.

As soon as it pops up in one place it would spread like wildfire. I would bet money that no one could find a leak of it.

[StinkyPink]

First, I would like to say.... IT ISN'T THE 8TH YET!

Now...

Assuming that it doesn't get leaked, would be possible with multiple warehouses throughout the country and next day shipping to all the stores.

The whole lot is probably on the trucks to the warehouses tonight, then on the trucks to the stores tomorrow night. So, you can expect a leak very soon.

Not that it matters, I think anyone who gets their hands on it will see that it sucks so bad, they will start ripping more discographies of The Who. Yeah, I beleive it will be THAT bad!

[Jakez]

^I agree with most points, I'm surprised already that it hasn't leaked and if it doesn't over the weekend I'll be even more surprised.

I know the music genre isn't everyones taste but the fact that every artist in every genre has a problem with albums leaking and these guys managed to keep it under wraps all the way up to release date weekend is amazing IMO.

Me personally I look forward to listening to it because I like most of the singles that have been released/leaked thus far, H.A.M. is amazing if you put your bias aside. But I guess you have to understand the culture and lingo, still, the build up and tempo of the song is great.

I heard on BBC radio or something that they were only releasing to itunes and best buy for the first 2 weeks. Other store owners weren't very happy. Maybe thats why it hasn't leaked.

[thickcash_amo]

So its going to be here soon enough and we can all either hate it or love it.

[Jarmusch]

I heard they are going to shut down the internet 2 weeks prior to the release.

[Konda]

It's because it's released digitally only in the first 2 weeks.
It came out on Itunes a couple of hours ago and within an hour it turned up on all the torrent sites.
