yea man, this album being reissued was sort of a big deal, dude!
Before then because of the rarity of the album at the time, this album
on Amazon cost almost $200!! And this is no lie, someone told me at Fatbeats
and then I actually checked for it myself and he WAS NOT LYING!!

I dislike that albums generate so much money when it should be going to the artists!!!
Bought it this time round though, along with Eligh's Grey Crow and Fashawn's Boy Meets World.
Great that we're back online, will check in tomorrow when I'm not posting from my phone.

Well if it's strictly from some of the indie labels, the artists should still be getting a vast majority of revenue.

My bad, I meant Amazon, I've always wanted to purchase Nujabes albums, but they're all mega-expensive and sold 2nd hand for the most part for much more money... I know Nujabes wouldn't be seeing that money anyways now, but he would have when I looked into purchasing had I been able to cop directly at a nicer price. My point is, fans are making a lot of profit on their CD's if they're willing to sell. At the same time, Indie artists should stock their CD's and make them more widely available if there's an expectant market (as is the case with BTH).

Yeah and Indie artists probably aren't making as much money as they should be... an album like BTH should never be out of stock, it's an album that's going to be well-recommended and received in future years, it might not sell by the boat load, but it's definitely an album newcomer's are going to purchase!!

The Album has a weird vibe to it and a wierd sound. But i think its great! kinda dense sounding.
Takes a few listens to get fully into it.
Album cover is amazing IMO.

Won't that lead to him having to pay his label with all the profit that he makes from bootlegging it himself?

He did say in an earlier interview in this thread that it took him a while to find the right sound for No York! It's good that he's come with something different, I just hope it isn't too different like when you hear an artist go too far left a la Tay when he dropped the second Foreign Exchange; they can still be growers, but sometimes, it's too much in one take.
