I could not believe the new Jay-Z cd 'The Black Album' was sitting right there on the shelf today (in TARGET), for $12.99

I thought it was coming out next Tuesday???

Amazon has it listed as the 14th.

Did anyone else see it today?

I think it is supposed to come out this Friday (becuase of bootleggers...oh the curse of rappers!) so they might have fucked up. I would buy it!

YUP, Friday!

BTW, I think we can do better than $12.99, which is supposed to be the regular price for Universal releases (and I'm pretty sure that Def Jam falls under that, no?). You know what I'm saying Target. Give us our $9.99 already. You know that Best Buy will. I guess this Friday release date screwed everyone up. It will probably appear in next weeks ad!

LOL! now 50 cent's G-Unit is releasing their's on friday, don't worry I'm not buying it.

I'm not hating hip-hop (just 50 Cent) and will probably get it too. I have nearly everyone of his albums (not "Reasonable Doubt" and not that rip off "Blueprint 2.1")

You have to pick up reasonable doubt! Lyrically, it's his best. You can hear his hungry. Definitely one of my favorites.
