zero chance he could do that and have success with it

people who are buying beyonce's albums arent 2013 hip hop buyers

wayne would likely move 350K unite 1st week if he was lucky with this tactic.

people would just feel like its a mixtape release they had to pay for....

No, this tactic would never work again (as in creating a frenzy with the sales to match). If he did it first at his peak he probably would have done even better than Beyonce. But now, nah. He should just do traditional promo and minimize leaks. If the music is good he will do respectable numbers. I don't forsee another rap album selling a million first week ever again though.
If Marshall had released this Rihanna single as the first track :usure:

this tactic can work again.. and will.. i dont know about wayne.. but it will work..... we got 13,000 dl's on one of our Batshare links from our site... if that shyt would of been sitting for a while without the album dropping it would be up to 30,000 ,... people will buy albums.. if they dont have a chance to get the leak early
