np...

who knows ... oneday I might decide to share my entire one drive.. its pretty much a cloud backup of my local server of ALL my music


I couldnt download the albums as a whole..lol

What am I doing wrong?

I could do sings individually, but that would take forever. Never downloaded on your type of link before

On the home page, where all album folders are displayed, i checked each one of them off. I hit the download button in the upper left corner and it came in as a single zip. It then unpacked as all the albums in their respective folders.

That doesnt justify Tommy Boy doing bad business

I am a supervisor at work and have been called a$$hole on many occasions

And ive felt the same about them

But none of my employees can say i cheated or robbed them and vice versa

Cause i dont take business personally and neither do my crew

De la soul regardless of thier elitist attitude and ive heard it as well

Still did thier part and fulfilled thier obligation

Tommy Boy is dead azz wrong and they have done this to all thier artists

Being called an a$$hole at work is not the same as walking around like your shyt doesn't stink for years and years and years. Like you said, you know it too and others have told you the same.

I am not disagreeing that they don't deserve it and that Tommy Boy is for sure doing bad business....but that's why they are Tommy Boy, a label from yesteryear that people don't really care about. Only thing I am saying is when you are a prick to people, they can drag their feet or do shyt to spite you, even if it means bad business for them.

I had the same problem as @L. Deezy, and when I tried this method the download link would disappear.

That said, all this shyt was Free.99 so I just downloaded individually.

Maybe try a different browser? I used Chrome to do it last night, and went through most of the steps on my work computer running Chrome this morning when i tested my walkthrough

I’m good homie. Honestly I’ve been looking for these albums for so long (I only had De La Soul is Dead and Grind Date) I just started downloading the songs one at a time. Small price to pay!

Why else would the label fukk with them so hard?
Tommy Boy wants more money. I don't think you need to dig any deeper when the motivation is money

I've met Pos, and he was cool to me. and I've met some "a$$hole" celebrities. I thought Pete Rock was an "a$$hole", but it doesn't change how I feel about his music, or make me want someone to do him dirty in a business deal. I also understand that maybe I saw him that way cause I caught him at a bad time or whatever
