Now that kanye has finalized the tracklist and things are finished, people are talking about how the album will leak soon. Any insiders or general music business experts know how albums get leaked? i still don't get that shit :work:

well it gets sent to distributors, so if you had to box up kanye's new album at work, wouldn't you pocket one?

also when it gets released in different countries earlier

because a "leak" is prior to the official release date.

I'm going to assume your talking about retail leaks. That can only happen after the album is shipped

Oh, pretty simple... So those people who steal the records, they sell it, right?
