New Eminem album surfaces online

3 November 2004 7:39 by James "Dela" Delahunty | 49 comments

New Eminem album surfaces online Rapper Eminem's new album, Encore, which is set to be released on November 16th has appeared online today, 13 days early. The album is currently being traded and distributed in many ways online, including XDCC bots on IRC, on P2P networks and many BitTorrent sites. This is the third major item from the entertainment industry to appear online in about a month, after two major games, Halo 2 and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas both leaked before their official release date. It seems that Internet release groups are becoming more and more of a nuisance to the entertainment industry, demonstrating their skills in beating several copy protections and acquiring works long before they are due to be released.

It's not a major thing to see albums appear online in MP3 format, but this one in particular is interesting after rumors were circulating online that there were "plans" for this album that would prevent mass piracy of it. The group responsible for the release has left some comments packed with it...

Guess Who's Ripped, Ripped Again? It's
RNS And We Bring A Friend!

He is familiar to us and all of you as
well. We bring you the new Eminem album
to ring in the end of 2004 and the
start of 2005! Consider this your early
Christmas present from RNS.

As well as the main CD, the group has also released a bonus CD containing three more tracks. It will be interesting to see some later comments on this release from Recording Industry. Some have made claims that the major success of the third Eminem album, The Eminem Show was due to many of the tracks appearing on P2P networks. Downloaders who got these early tracks claim it made them go out and buy the album when it was released.

    Eminem (NOT M&M!!!) isn't white trash...Do you even know the meaning of White Trash?? I don't think so, cuz Eminem deffinetely isn't!!! So Hailey is a spoiled bitch huh? I dont think so.... Her parents love her and her dad loves her so much that he keeps her safe however he can...that's not spoiled. Check your facts bro!

    You think the only reason we like him is because he bleached his hair and he slit his wrists? WOW, you are way off! And, maybe he decided it was stupid shit to slit his wrists, thats why he didnt "do it right" You are so retarded.... Oh, and I know his daughters name because some of his songs mention her name...Like Toy Soldiers, Mockingbird, and Hailey's Song (Eminem Show) just to name a few. When someone comes up with a real comeback, let me know!

    Have fun at the Anger Managemant tour evilh0ly!!! I wish I was goin.

    so he decided sliting his wrists was a bad idea so he still did it only really crappy hmmm thats intelligent

    "im gonna kill myself by sticking a shotgun in my mouth and shoot myself but thats a silly idea so im just gonna not load the gun but still do it "

    wow toy soldiers he threw a chair cause he was mad if i wanted to see choreagraphed violence id watch wwe

    mocking bird i still havent figured out what its about
    a bad parodie of a childrens song ,something about his wife and drugs i don know i wasnt listening ,or killing a bird

    and yes i do think bleach is the only reason u like him it certinally isnt his lyrics

    and dont expect my comments to stop im here until the year 2068

    shadyrule do you listen to any other rappers. Im not saying I hate Eminem but I think he has changed since 8 Mile. Regarding Pac's beats he had no reason whatsoever to touch them. All he wanted to do is make a quick buck because he new it would sell. Im not sayin I hate Pac infact Pac's my fav rapper of all time. But Loyal to the Game was made for the money not for the music. Do you really think Pac would of chosen to have Elton John in one of his songs. I own all of Pac's albums from "2Pacalypse Now" through to "Better Dayz". Any other Pac album is just BS.

    i normally wouldn't have responded to this thread but i wanted to point out that, Pac's mother has controlling interest over her son's music and name..pretty much anything to do with Tupac

    Ya ems getting older u can tell in his music but the boy does got skills and as far as him being a sell out HE DID we all need that green. I see him as a more mature em than back 5 years ago, he cant keep rhyming about dope and guns it gets old after a while but as an artist he is the first white boy besides 3rd base to ever make me listen. The album he made for pac wasnt that good except the cut with obie trice the rest was booty. Em needs to find that spot at where he was before but as people get older so is they way they flow and think, act and speak.

    I totally agree... So, All you Haters out there gotta learn what real music is. Eminem rules! His beats and rhymes kill in the rap industry and on the charts. Im not sayin he's the only rapper I listen to..... I also listen to 50 cent, The Game, D12, Ludacris, Nappy Roots, a little Chingy and a little Nelly. I listen to others also, I just don't listen to very many of their songs. I'm sayin, Eminem puts everything on the line and thows what he's got down and it always sounds awesome!

    PEACE

    I know plenty of people that are order than 10 that can spell "plenty" right. Oh, they probably enjoy Eminem, but I think they like Punk better. Not my fault.

    When I need a good laugh I look at your post and I laugh. Thanks for letting us know you're laughing your arse off, let me send you a get well card when you get out of hospital. While you're in hospital, try to learn how to spell plenty, and try to learn how to insult people.

    Change your name and your opinion might matter. Oh wait, it won't. You can't even put fullstops in your sentence. Go back to Kindergarden.

    Because he is WHITE, and white america loves WHITE!

    ever heard of chart fixing? or how labels pay radio stations to play certain songs more than others? (which they are currently under investigation for)
    I used to listen to alot of rap back in the day. I don't think Eminem is popular cause he's white or chart fixing ... he's actually a pretty good rapper (at least IMO). If you listen to alot of rap you know what I mean.

    WHO cares about this.....the article is ALL about:

    New Eminem album surfaces online

    NOT who likes him/how many people like him/or whatever.

    Damn...why don't you all who have such strong opinions about this go to his website and go to his forums. Keep this site here for tech news and tech help. Or post in the Safety Valve or something!
