pulling it off release is a dumb move imo, the shit is out there already just like anything that hits the net so now is the time to capitalise.those who don't have the patience to wait until the 23rd are going to be the ones fiending and that will hit the sales hard if it isn't out there in the legal form like it was earlier.

It's a sales moves. It's gonna get more sales of cause of it.

how exactly?

someone like myself who was more than happy to wait until the 23rd to listen to the album, got the opportunity to do so today and like many others grabbed at the chance, irrelevant of the fact that im probably going to purchase it anyway.

but for every 1 person who has legal intentions of copping it,there's probably 20 who will just download it through whatever means (a logic which you can apply to the users on a site like this), so those are sitting at home now hearing that the album has been put back (if that's the case) and are knowledgable in this sort of things will definitely be hitting them links.between now and the 23rd how many people you think that applies to?

like i said once something hits the net in this day and age its pretty much over.people ain't got patience for shit anymore.

The caterpillar is a prisoner to the streets that conceived it

Its only job is to eat or consume everything around it, in order to protect itself from this mad city

While consuming its environment the caterpillar begins to notice ways to survive

One thing it noticed is how much the world shuns him, but praises the butterfly

The butterfly represents the talent, the thoughtfulness, and the beauty within the caterpillar

But having a harsh outlook on life the caterpillar sees the butterfly as weak and figures out a way to pimp it to his own benefits

Already surrounded by this mad city the caterpillar goes to work on the cocoon which institutionalizes him

He can no longer see past his own thoughts

He’s trapped

When trapped inside these walls certain ideas start to take roots, such as going home, and bringing back new concepts to this mad city

The result?

Wings begin to emerge, breaking the cycle of feeling stagnant

Finally free, the butterfly sheds light on situations that the caterpillar never considered, ending the eternal struggle

Although the butterfly and caterpillar are completely different, they are one and the same."

So who's the caterpillar and who's the butterfly.

the caterpillar is just the one that never makes it out of the streets ... the one that never gets the chance to spread their wings and evolve
