So the price will BE HIGH FOR THIS? #harharhar

 

Seriously though, the CD set looked great and if they do it like that it may be worth it, I just wish they didn't change the fucking songs because they couldn't clear samples.

I visit the KanyeToThe Forum ("biggest Kanye fansite") from time-to-time and I do think a guy tried to or did get them pressed as a picture disc (go figure) and that guy also did (or is doing) the first two Kendrick Lamar records/mixtapes. Personally I am not a fan of bootlegs and would just rather wait it out for an official release.

 

I do agree with Drew, this would be worth spending $50 over that blink-182 repress, I would spend around $100 f it really is six LPs and they do booklets like on the CDs and separate sleeves for each release. But we'll see what happens. /500 with his popularity are not good odds but I did get lucky with the Thrice/MO split so who knows.

I don't want trilogy cover art though. I would like a boxset with a sleeve for each mix tape along with colored vinyl for each LP of the mixtape (like what 3arl did) and the boxset cover art, would be trilogy's cover art of course, sigh, but that would only happen in a prefect world. They'll most likely be one sleeve no gatefold, 180 grams, with boring center labels, and trilogy cover art, priced at around $120, that's what I predict. but damn 6 LPs giving Mellon Collie & Sadness a run for it's money.

I am not a fan of bootlegs either, and have waited patiently but frustratingly for an official Channel Orange release, but was just wondering because I hadn't seen any around.

I want Channel Orange to be released so badly, I wonder what happened with it that it never came out. Def Jam really dropped the ball on that one because I think it would have sold well. A nice orange color record. Who knows, maybe some day. Did you see I posted a link about the bootleg House Of Balloons? http://www.kanyetoth...?topic=273356.0

Yeah, I did check it out.  Thanks, that's crazy!  Read an article recently, which I can't seem to find at the moment, about the rise of bootleg records.  Thought it was an overblown sensationalist piece, but now I'm starting to wonder if my initial reaction was wrong.

Nice... I've been a member on there for like 6 years.  It's a little over-saturated these days, but still a good source of info.

 

On topic, I'm really curious to see what this release will look like, if it does exist. (Though I'd much prefer a Channel Orange release if I had to pick one)
