well for one that is a tough test and i doubt anybody knew
that was the case. although i would have still liked to see
even something on the album even a sample but i agree it would
be hard.

i don't know what everybody elses opinion on it is but my main
gripe wasn't even just this show. if that was the situation
then its one of those "it is what it is" things.

my main problem is the lack of promotion in general.

i always buy the albums so thats a given sale. but like others
have said i have promoted the roots albums as far as telling
my friends in the past and playing it for them to the point
that they sometimes will come to a show or buy an album.

the problem is nobody even knows an album is coming out. 

as i get older i don't even see these people as much to get
them into it. THEY are the people that could lead to a
significant amount of sales. but they aren't the type of
people that frequent okp.

but anyway, i'm one of the few that thought birthday girl
should have stayed on the album. 

luckily "get busy" gets a few spins on hot97 dj
mixes but they cut it up so peedi's verse goes first just so
people will listen. nobody even knows its the roots so who's
gonna go look for a roots album.
