Man, if you download FP's album before it drops in stores illegaly, your just hurting him and hurting your own musical experience when your hear this masterpiece of musical art. Yeah we already heard "Party Starter" and "Pump Ya Brakes" but it was from a radio show in which he was present. I thought we all wanted FP to do well after a lackluster "Born to Reign" album 3 years ago. Come on, you all want FP to top charts, well how can he if you download the music illegaly? Saying you'll buy it after you download isnt fair either because we don't know for sure you will. People say that all the time. I'll admit, I have downloaded other artists albums but I always got the album at some point.
I know for a fact I'm heading out to Wal-mart on the morning of March 29th (turns out i have no school thanks to Easter break) and I'm buying "Lost & Found" with my own money knowing it'll go into FP's pocket as a token of appreciation for the hard work he does and all the music he makes that I just love to listen to. If you download off of Itunes or Napster, than thats fine because it still counts to sales on the charts and stuff but downloading off WinMX, Kazaa or even Soulseek is just terrible...and you should be ashamed to be saying "I'm a fan of DJ Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince". Yeah well show it y'all. We complain about "real fans" well I believe JJFP says it best:
"Be a real fan, go buy the album" - JJFP "Here We Go Again" - 1988
"but dont download, go out and buy the record" - Fresh Prince "Switch" - 2005
