word is out.
a couple of blogs and website have picked up on our diabolical plan.
ropeadope, psanyc, ohword have all helped spread the word.
some are hosting and some are linking.
other sites have questioned why we are doing this.
they think it is a bad idea on our part, and that we are devaluing our music.
and as i see there perspective i would have appreciated it if they would have first asked us our motivation. we didn't do it because we couldn't find a label to put the record out (more on that in a minute). my personal reasoning was so that elisha cuthbert might by some chance hear my song. if you think that is a stupid idea, well then i don't know what to say.
now we in fact did get a couple offers from some major labels. to prove it to you i will show you the emails that we got in response. i promise i did not write this shit myself.

dear roosevelt franklin,
first let me just say that your insights towards making the band season 4 were very helpful and we have taken note. not surprisingly you seem to be the only person who has demanded that there be more dylan dillinger on the show.
as for the record. i sir diddy did enjoy it. we however have 20 new biggie smalls posthumous releases slated for 2006. we have the biggie duets album featuring biggie along side bobby brown and johnny gill. the best of worst worlds record with biggie and r kelly. the long lost dvd of biggie playing with the harlem globetrotters. and 17 others which i haven't fully conceptualized yet.
we would like to sign you to a spec deal for the sum of 5 pounds of sean john clothing, and a bunch of leftover g dep cd's. the contract is in the mail

roosevelt,
With Eminem retiring we have been constantly searching for the next great white hope. We loved your record. We had drawn up a multi-million dollar contract for you. It is with great regret that I must inform you that we have to reneg on that deal as we have recently found out that you are not in fact white as your music and voice had led us to believe. Sorry.
Jimmy Iovine
President

proof is in the pudding.
keep hope alive.
oh and to the guy who was concerned that we were somehow ripping off the pryor estate by not paying them for a sample on a record that is giving us no revenue since we are giving it away for free. we have decided to donate 62% of the profits from giving the record away for free to a foundation to be named later that the pryor's will approve.

here's the link for what we have to say

I'm downloading this now. If it's good though, I'm going to post it on my own server instead of telling people to go to that RapidShare site, because it's seriously annoying. I'll send you the link if that happens, so you guys don't have to make your possible fans wait either.
haha..
