Welcome Back Carter


Well I guess the most redundantly-freestyled-to-hip-hop-song in recent memory does have more significance for Dwayne Carter since he has scanned over 1 million copies of Tha Carter III... in less than 1 week. What's even more interesting is that the album was leaked on the internet waaay before its release which begs the question to the music industry... what is the anomaly that causes an artist that frequently leaks/releases material on the internet and mixtapes, then has their official album leaked weeks ahead of their proper release date and STILL have over a million purchases the week that it's released? I'll tell you that it has something to do with putting out quality, fresh product and also using the internet/mixtapes for your own benefit instead of fighting against it. 'Cause I'll tell you 1 thing, the 'net aint going no where... so learn to luv it... and use it to your advantage. Music industry, please take note...
