For years, I tried selling my copy to used CD stories, but no one would take it, so finally I had to throw it away. You forgot the Hootie and the Blowfish album.

Universal and Sony used to send me these gigantic packages full of free CDs at my request, at which point I would bring them to my local record store and sell them all for about $25 so I could eat Chipotle burritos 4 days a week and not starve. Then when Sony or Universal called to ask if I'd received the package I would say I hadn't and ask that they send it again. Then I would bring those CDs to my local record store to sell them all for about $25 ... again. I'd make an awesome crackhead.

After that I was a consultant to used CD stores (mostly CD Spins) to help them determine the best/shittiest/rarest urban music to price it correctly. Yo are right on the money with this post. Also, Will.i.am knew those cats because one of them was half of the acclaimed hip hop production team Wolf & Epic (Brett Mazur). I really wish that Sisqo's video for "Unleash The Dragon" would've dropped because it would've ended his career even SOONER. If you haven't seen it and need a good hearty laugh, search the web for it. One. Zilla, as you know I worked in music retail as well, but from 1998 to 2001.
