Please accept my thanks and appreciation for your recent orders. I am
so very grateful for your support of my music,and am humbled by the
unexpected and overwhelming response to my mixtapes. We are in the
process of moving our distribution of mailorder CD's to the US as tapes are currently being made and shipped from Toronto, Canada. This
has caused some frustration for customer as delivery from Canada may
take 7-14 business days. Some of you have patiently waited for 3
weeks and we cannot offer tracking info as we felt working with courier
services from Canada would  have made our prices unfairly high for
you. Please feel confident that your purchase will arrive as delivery is
slow...but reliable! All orders placed since April 1st have been
shipped. Anticipating that this explanation will help you to understand
any delays I thank you for your patience. Hoping you will enjoy
listening to it as much as I enjoyed the musical journey taken while creating it.


Much Love and Respect
Drizzy

This ones for this song
The next one I'll switch up
This one will get bit up"

- Jay-Z

I want to thank you all for the feedback.

I feel like I need to address this topic of me finding or losing myself as an artist. What people may not understand is that in this industry of hip hop you are either a musician or a product. A product is someone that is boxed in due to the fact that they were created to generate money using a formula that they cannot stray from. A musician is someone who is unafraid to explore and challenge themselves knowing that it has the possibility of being heard by the entire world in a matter of hours. I consider myself a musician and my thoughts and words are my only instruments. The leaks that took place a couple weeks ago were genuine LEAKS of unfinished material that I had plans to finish and mix and master. I pride myself on quality so losing a song like Forever dented my armor because I love that record and had plans to put it on my album with completely different verses. When it comes to a record like Ransom I just urge you to understand that I am having fun. I know what my album sounds like so I am leaking these records on the internet for people that just want to hear two great rappers rapping. I was having fun when I did Brand New too and I never had any plans or thoughts of releasing it and now singing is almost an essential part of my career. I am a musician and I am unafraid to create and step out of my element due to the quality of material I have in the wings.

I am a man with two brains...so if ever one is lost the other will be out looking for it. I appreciate you all...Thank Me Later 2009.


(And I am not signed to Young Money for the record but thank you for the mazel tov's)
