Lil Wayne Album Dropped

Lil Wayne album has dropped while he is still incarcerated. Reports state that Lil Wayne new album entitled I am not a Human Being has sold over 100,000 copies in its first week and is number two on the billboard charts. Personally, I feel as though the album was not marketed well, I didn't hear anything about it until the day of the drop. Secondly, Lil Wayne is still in prison therefore he unable to promote any songs or better the album period from behind bars. Sources have stated that Lil Wayne will put out another EP once he gets out of prison sometime in early november. I still feel like the label could have waited to release his album and that it was a big risk they took by releasing. Obviously, his record label feels as though his fan base is strong enough to do such a thing. Nevertheless, the album was a success already even-though the marketing and promotion for the album was poor. I have not purchased the album and honestly I doubt that I will just because of the concept of the music. At the end of the day, I  admire Lil Wayne's impact on the hip hop industry.

Mediatakeout Website Review


I have been a loyal reader of gossip website Media takeout for over a year now and I have found it to be very interesting. This website has provided me with information and various sources related to music. I am able to stay current and follow the latest trends of artist that I admire through this site. For the most part the information provided when related to music and fashion is helpful. Though, there are times when the site provides useless information that doesn’t benefit me. I give Media Takeout a thumb up for his fast and informational news. Some of the information the site provides about music and celebrities gives me insight on things I need to do better my career and future goals. For example, the site post new blogs everyday about the music industry. The site lets you know what concerts are going on and where, what to wear and what the hot topic in the music industry is. This benefits me because as an inspiring manager I can see what things certain artist are doing to stay relevant and I can apply it to my artist or business. Media takeout allows you to stay involve in the music industry even though you may not physically be involved in the music industry. If you have any interest in the music industry or entertainment industry Media takeout is a good site to follow, like any site you have to pick and choose which articles you think will benefit you. It is not a formal site by any means it does have many glitches that many can criticize about but for the most part is good and funny entertainment. Articles about which NBA star was caught cheating are senseless but entertaining. On the other hand, articles like P. diddy taking over manager for artist Nikki Minaj are helpful because if you plan to work in the music industry you need to know what is occurring. This is what Media takeout provides and this is why I continue to support it.
