Ja Rule - R.U.L.E

Eminem - Encore

Fabolous - Real Talk

Snoop Dogg - Rhythm & Gangsta: The Masterpiece

Im really getting annoyed by albums getting leaked, how do you guys feel about it?

P.S. - Ja's album is getting the most praise, followed by Snoop. Eminem's & Fabolous' cd's have been getting some bad remarks, on other boards.

where u getting these remarks from? iv been to raptism.com's forums, tupacboard & mp3board.net...and i have heard bad stuff about EM's, even tho they said "Toy Soldierz" is tight. But i have heard Ja's "Life Goes On" "Gun Talk" "Last Of the Mohicans" & "New York" and those tracks definalty stand out, with tracks like "Caught Up" & "The Passion" being solid.

Ill end up buying both of them.

Try your P2P program of choice...

Read the post right before yours and then proceed to lunge your head straight into your computer desk. Repeat.

I'm really uninterested in Eminem's album. Fabolous - eh. Breathe will be alright for a couple more weeks, and what else is there?

Can Ja Rule actually be hardcore? Apparently so, so this shouldn't be so bad. I may look into the album here.

Snoop Dogg - uh. Pass.

Ja's not extremely "hard" on this album, he's got a few street bangers like "New York" "Gun Talk" but he also has deep songs like "Life Goes On" then he just has club bangers, so its a good mix. solid CD id say, best since VVV.....well that isnt saying much.

Eminem's album is just plain bad. I'm not entirely suprised, but I was holding out hope that he'd reverted back to his older style. It's worse than Eminem Show, it's easily his worst album overall.

Like Toy Soldiers is the only genuinely good track, and even that gets annoying because of the beat. Big Weenie, Mosh and Encore are bearable. The production on the whole is better than Eminem Show, but Em actually ruins the beats with his childish jokes and annoying choruses. For the most part, I'd rather listen to the songs instrumental.

If this is his last album, it's not a good way to go out.

johnny, which ones?

Eminem’s new album Encore has been leaked on to the internet.

The Real Slim Shady star’s hotly-anticipated fourth album was stolen nearly two weeks before its release date. The theft has sparked panic at his record label Interscope who have brought forward the worldwide release date.

An illegal website called RNS put the entire album on the net two days ago. Thousands of fans instantly downloaded it and could pass it on to countless others.

It could lose the 32-year-old rapper milliions of dollars in royalties from CD sales. Interscope bosses were locked in meetings all day yesterday. They decided to bring forward Encore’s release date by three days to next Friday November 12. Unveiling the album on a Friday rather than a Monday is virtually unprecedented — and a sign of how panicked bosses are.

An insider at the label said: “This is catastrophic news. Security has been so tight on this album nobody can figure out how the album has got out there. We now think thousands of people around the world are downloading. This is a very, very serious issue for us.”

Encore features 20 tracks with titles including Mosh, Puke and Big Weenie. Eighties star Martika features on Like Toy Soldiers.

Despite the theft, experts still predict Encore — the follow up to The Eminem Show — will be the biggest selling album in the world this year.
