Death Row's Great Marketing of Against The Grain

[Hostile Apostle]

STATEMENT ABOUT 'AGAINST THA GRAIN'
Many are wondering why there is a lack of promotion for "against tha grain" on this website. Basically we do not support nor endorse this record. Many songs made for the album were removed by Koch. This was not the intended "Against Tha Grain" we wanted to release and for this reason we urge fans not to purchase the album.

THAROW.COM

I'm pretty sure they are doing this for when the album flops, they can say "hey, we didn't WANT the fans to buy this album".

 

[Quasimodo]

what a bunch of fuckin idiots!

 

[Preach]

seems like they do this on every release these days. lol.

 

[PaulyPac]

I posted this already, what the fuck is the point of releasing an album when the actual label has no control over the songs?

ATG is still dope though.

dead row is a joke

I actually saw an ad for this on BET, with Death Row logos flashing across the screen half the time.

Actually Deathrow isnt stupid, he wants out of his Contract because Lyor Cohen wants to sign a distrubution deal with deathrow.

really? that would be tight, DR back to its glory days.

HOLD THE FUCK UP! Since when does Koch have a say in what songs should or should not be on an album? Their an independant label, not a major label. Their job is just to distribute the shit, not determine its musical direction. Thats bullshit.

And I heard DPG was gonna release their album on Koch - I think they really oughta reconsider now.

 

[Hostile Apostle]

FYI: My searches of the Sunday Morning ads shows that Against The Grain will be $7.99 at K-Mart. $9.99 @ Circuit City, $11.99 @ Target.

No Daz said he don't wanna fuck with Koch.

At least they will actually get albums and videos out.

They did the same shit with Numixx Classics or whatever it is called. I dont think they legally have a say in it.
