than 15.

You've been away for a while. I would still charge but not for the first project you've got out since forever.

There are some folks that do one of a few things though:

- Name your price, with a suggested price
- Only give away for free with an exchange of email/etc
- Make it free during that intial viral period and then charge after a specified date.


There are a lot of ways to go about it. I mean, with bandcamp they can listen to the entire track first. I know, for instance, I like that Skip Coon nigga's shit but he was charging so I didn't buy.

That's just lost buzz.

Let it go viral.

OR if you have other jawns you think are tight, get those out to outlets that will give you burn and then let that drive traffic before charging for a new jawn.

Don't put 3$ either.

Call it 2.99 or 2.89 or some shit.

Remember ONE thing: You know people. Get. It. Viral. Every nigga you know witha blog with any traffic from Lessondary niggas, to Woe, to whomever--make sure they all blog it and blog it in the same 48 hour period.

That kind of inertia can't be downplayed and it can't be re-done either. Either you get it or you don't.
