remember buying hip hop albums before hearing any tracks?

I remember this. almost every tuesday i was at sam goody seeing what was new. if i knew it wasnt gonna be no good i went ahead and picked up an old album i missed. Then i found out how to download and oh lawd

I Still do really, i tried my best to ignore Nas - Nasty track... but i had to hear it!!

Ive done this for a lot of albums, its how i got into Atmosphere (my favorite group) i just copped WLGYL without hearing any of the songs.... One of my favorite albums ever...Then i got into the rest of their catalogue..

yea i remember that shit. it was always hit or miss with that tho. and i still do that for some reason. but with itunes i can sample b4 i buy. but if its an artist i know and like then ill go ahead and buy the album with out listening hope that i can trust that they have a good album.

Same here. This is a borderline spam thread but I'll let it slip given people's interest.

I don't see why people check nigh on the whole album, always leads to disappointment. I'll listen to the single, but then we always heard the single anyways.

I remember doing that a long time ago. But like another poster said, woo internet. Haha.

yep, every tuesday i used to go to this mom and pop store and would buy something new. the two that stand out the most without hearing a track is common's resurrection and mad skillz from where
