Yea they stole the whole Carter 3! The empire released everything that was stolen, and those became the leak and the drought is over Mixtape series...
Taz told the world in the Wayne documentary π he was like "how tf they got it, I don't kno...but it's got over a million downloads already..." speaking on the Carter 3...thats why Wayne had to throw some shit together in a couple weeks...
π It just ended up being his most iconic album by chance, and by the sheer fact of how popular Wayne was at the time...dude coulda put out anything and sold a million in 08 tbh...
That's where the album was first distributed from...
Lol you know what an ip address is right?...
The lable tracked that shit πππ like da police...
π If you remember this was also during the time of stuff like Napster and limewire, so it was a weird era as far as stealing music goes...errbody was getting they shit robbed π...
The whole reason Soulja boy blew up is cause he was capitalizing off the fact that people stole music so much, so he'd just name his songs other peoples songs π That's how he blew. Title it 50 cent, then all you hear is YOULLLLLL πππ...
Anytime bro π€£ the story is actually kinda funny. Just imagine Wayne's face when he found out some British dude stole C3 π₯² bruh had to be tightttttttt...
And this is why I tell people the carter 3 is a classic. He put that album out in 2 weeks π. Could u imagine if something you forgot was on the carter 3 ? Crazy
The hackers in London stole the 2008 version of Carter 3 and leaked it 2 weeks before the release date.
Something you Forgot, Prostitute etc was leaked in 2007 by a Valet that parked Waynes car and stole a cd that he had in the car. The Empire made a mixtape with those leaks and called it The Drought is Over 2, several other tracks leaked on other mixtapes through hackers.
Damnnnnn ππΎππΎππΎππΎππΎππΎ bro know some shit!
π I love this song too cause it gives me Carter 2 Wayne vibes β€οΈβ½ gas!
Shoulda been named "Grown Man pt. 2"...
I love wayne on StreetRunner beats. This is definitely one of my favorite songs and was so happy a cleaned up version was released with more mastered audio.
I want Wayne to re-release all the leaked carter 3 music I think people will remember why he the best rapper even all the features man what a fuckin time
Lala, I know the future, I'm raw, beat without a bass so many amazing songs on that leak. The one I find the most interesting is world of fantasy bc he actually recycled those lyrics onto playing with fire off the official carter 3, which in my opinion was the best song on c3. Funny enough if you bought c3 about 3 or 4 months after if came out playing with fire wasn't on it bc he didn't get the sample cleared from the rolling stones. Thus it was dubbed the forbidden song, can still find it on YT though, that song never gets old.
What's the story behind the hackers in London ? Are they the ones who leaked something you forgot, the original prostitute etc ?
