hip hop bootleggers yeah the name might be misleading but thats not what we do we dont make a penny doller euro from the site artists complain from time to time about us posting there albums (we take them down) but there getting free promo and people are checking there releases due to us posting them its 2008 nobody purchases shit these days blind who goes into a store and buys something just becouse they heard it was good? nobody people download it and decide if they like it or not then well i hope then if they like it they go and buy it i no thats what i do and its what most of the people who are contributers on hhb do im not gonna order some matlock album just becouse some1 said check it (i did check the matlock album and it was garbage)we get artists and labels emailing us daily they have something dropping soon can hhb post it up to download and add a link to buy the album.

If it wasnt for the internet who would know about all the albums that come out these guys dont have $500 to give to worldstarofhiphop to post there vids shit they dont even have vids.

Or what i did with Murs and 9th Wonder and how even you participated in my master plan to help Murs reach the next level in his career. Because I’ve been listening to him and living legends since I was 16 and skateboarding to it on my Sony discman (the one with the fm radio). Its the least I can do.
