    Presumebly it was somebody within the studio or label.

    Its supposed to be awful though,so I'm not too worried.

    the second an album goes into mass production it just takes one worker to pick one off the line and upload it when he gets home.

    also record companies send out advance copies of albums (can be the full retail product) to radio stations etc. all it takes is for one to upload it then.

    I doubt it Cremo,the version that leaked had yet to be mastered,nor had the guests been put on it.

    No it's not. It's an unmixed version.

    Just from looking around some forums I'm fairly sure this wasn't the complete version.As I said,no guests and it wasn't mastered.

    sure happens all the time not really allot they can do to stop it, I think usher scrapped an album because it happened and i remember seeing a news thing on mtv when snoops last meal was coming out and he was mad paro on it even showing a cdr copy saying how he had to be carefull anyone could just pick it up and leak it on him and the next week death row went and put it up on their site to download before getting ordered to remove it. If your looking in the right places you can find allot of "advance" albums coming out months before hand with half mixed songs and some that you dont get on the retail album ive a great version off kanyes all falls down where he does it like at what sounds like some kind of live show but its not over music just him talking like hes doing a serman. Its a pain for the artist and the labels but as a fan its great to hear some of the stuff they dont want you to.
