Its an unmastered ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ version of his upcoming album. We had to shoot Slick Ricks ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ manager to get this for you. But u know - we do everything ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ for your ears. Take care now and enjoy this really early ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ pre. ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ A few words about the bullshit that went down with our ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ gay competition today regarding Nas. About 3 weeks ago, RNS ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ released what was supposed to be the final retail version of ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ Nas - I Am. This was quite a feat, considering that the ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ doesn't even hit stores until April 6. It appears that Sony ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ MAY have cut three of the tracks from the version of the ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ album that was ripped at that time, and added one track ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ (which was already ripped back in January and has hence been ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ circulating on the internet and streets for months). Now, ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ today, our competition makes asses out of themselves and ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ decides to rip what they claim is the truly final retail ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ version of I Am (which it may very well be). This sounds ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ great and all, until you realize that they're trying to ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ compel the MP3 end-user to download an album which has LESS ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ songs than the one ripped by RNS weeks ago. What's wrong ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ with this picture? That's great that you were finally able ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ to get your hands on such a hot release; too bad you have to ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ dupe RNS three weeks later in order to provide the public ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ with a song they already had and to deprive them of songs ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ that Sony may have had to cut for legal (sample clearance) ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ reasons. Yay for our typically gay competition. ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ Now you see why we constantly claim RNS is the best. We say ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ it because we are. BIATCH. ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ╔════[About RNS]═══════════════════════════════════════════════╗ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ Rabid Neurosis was established in 1995 and since 1996 we have║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ been dedicated to bringing the highest possible quality to ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ the mp3 community. It is rumored that we only rip rap, hip ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ hop, and r&b, well, this is simply a rumor, granted that ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ this type of music is the mainstream at the moment, so of ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ course a lot of this genre is going to get done, but we do ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ other types of music (rock, ska, punk, techno, bootlegs, pop,║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ etc) as well. Currently we are not looking for any members ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ unless you have some exceptional background in either the mp3║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ warez or iso scene and/or have something exceptional to offer║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ to the group (pre-release ripper, t3/linux/30gb+ us/euro Site║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ Op, or hardware supplier) if you fall into that category drop║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ by #rns on efnet and talk to one of the seniors about joining║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ or mail the president Al Capone ([email protected]) note: we are║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ NOT seeking any artists or couriers period. ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ [Other News] ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ ║ Zero Music Inc. is RNS's official couriers (irc/ext ftp).
