[quote] [URL="http://consequenceofsound.net/tag/martin-shkreli/"]Martin Shkreli[/URL] was the most-hated man in America until [URL="http://consequenceofsound.net/tag/donald-trump"]Donald Trump[/URL] really got going. So it kinda makes sense that he’s pulling yet another attention-grabbing stunt in support of Cheeto Voldemort. The “pharma bro” who famously purchased Wu-Tang Clan’s one-of-a-kind [URL="http://consequenceofsound.net/2015/12/martin-shkreli-wu-tang-clan/"][I]Once Upon A Time In Shaolin [/I][/URL]for $2 million is offering to post his entire music collection online for free if Trump wins. In addition to [I]Shaolin[/I], Shkreli claims to have unreleased music from Nirvana and The Beatles. He made the offer on Trump’s favorite platform, Twitter.

I'm sorry but Americans better vote Trump, that Wu needs to be heard
Spoiler alert, even if Trump wins he won't release them and is doing this seeking attention.
A fairly convincing argument to vote Trump, Shkreli. Raise the stakes to offing yourself and we have a deal.
if they're unreleased its probably because it was shit/medicore Probably in the same realm as Fincher's brilliant cut of Alien 3, Trank's brilliant cut of fantastic four and Freddie Mercury's trashcan of unaired vocalizations

It's a shame people pay this guy so much attention
[QUOTE=thelurker1234;51273463]It's a shame people pay this guy so much attention[/QUOTE] dude he has unreleased music by Wu-Tang a LOT of people want to listen to it
[QUOTE=Kannata;51273577]dude he has unreleased music by Wu-Tang a LOT of people want to listen to it[/QUOTE] people barely paid attention to the last wu-tang album
[QUOTE=Kannata;51273577]dude he has unreleased music by Wu-Tang a LOT of people want to listen to it[/QUOTE] Are a lot of people willing to screw themselves over to hear some songs? Whoever owns the rights to the music for these bands should release the tracks just to nullify this guy's bullshit.
I wouldn't be surprised if this is a massive troll. He's totally apathetic towards politics (he isn't "pro" Trump), and I doubt the Nirvana and Beatles albums even exist.
Come on America, don't be selfish and do the right thing.
Wasn't the Wu-Tang album outed as basically fake? My roomie told me a while back. Guessing the primary source is this: [url]https://www.reddit.com/r/hiphopheads/comments/3w39i2/the_truth_about_the_new_wutang_album_part_3/[/url] Couldn't quickly find anything else on the subject because attn whore pageant winner Martin Shkreli's media presence could drown out an atomic blast. I have never even given them a real listen but if true (someone else read the reddit guy's ramblings) why would anyone, especially their die-hard fans give a shit?
Andrew Eldritch from The Sisters Of Mercy said something similar; that he will release a new album only if Trump wins, which is kind of understandable considering they are a political band... [B]But[/B] overall, I think it's pretty downright wrong to tell someone who to vote for.

Are you saying that generally, or do you just apply it to celebrities who aren't traditionally political? Either way, why?

I must be on the opposite end of the spectrum because I want to hear what other people think. It's usually accompanied with useful information and being informed about why people are voting certain ways changes the discourse. Edit: I mean, isn't it good if someone changes their mind on who to vote for after hearing other opinions?

This is a bullshit move on shkreli's part, but I really doubt it's going to change anyone's mind. It's practically harmless and at least this let's us know that he hasn't stopped being a douchebag.

I'm still feeling it at the moment :v:
I love shkreli but it's obvious he's doing this for two reasons, attention, and he wants people to hate him.
[QUOTE=patq911;51273970]I love shkreli but it's obvious he's doing this for two reasons, attention, and he wants people to hate him.[/QUOTE] He arguably did good by bringing the fucked up business practices of the pharmaceutical industry to public attention, even if it was for a few days and people went back to their daily meme routine. But this is just mustache twirling attention seeking.
Unbelievably unlikely he has unheard Beatles records. The masters are all kept in deep storage and I can't imagine the rights holders are ever likely to let anyone purchase and release those records as they see fit, let alone Martin Shkrelli of all people.
[QUOTE=patq911;51273970]I love shkreli but it's obvious he's doing this for two reasons, attention, and he wants people to hate him.[/QUOTE] I'm curious, what is there to love about Shkreli?
[QUOTE=Bread_Baron;51274017]I'm curious, what is there to love about Shkreli?[/QUOTE] I've watched his livestream and he's very smart when he's not being a sarcastic troll. He's not evil, but he feels he needs to be that way because there's no way to "redeem" himself. all in all he's a very interesting person.
Nobody noticed that he only said this when it's almost certain Trump will lose? He never planned on releasing it, he's just fucking with people again. It's like a shitty toxx. Would've said this at the start of the election if he was serious.
add all of boc's unreleased tracks and i'm coming over to get my citizenship and vote within the next 24 hours
