Would anyone attempt this?

IP:

Rappers always worry (or not) that their upcoming albums will be bootlegged. So, I was wondering if anyone had or would consider a decoy album. A rapper could leak tracks leading up to the release date. So, internet downloads of their album would be with the tracks they purposely allowed to be leaked. However, when the actual drop date for their album arrives, they release a completely new product of tracks they recorded in secrecy.

Seems like an alright idea, if they wanna take the time to record 2 full albums, when one won't even bring a profit.

they do it alot game has admitted doin it wit both his albums its to gain trust, your not jus puttin sumtihn out where the people hav no idea wat its like y wud sum1 buy sumtihn blindly? there hope is that they giv u sumthin in hope u will giv it bk to them its to be seen as a sample of the real product the rapper sasy ok ill let u listen to it for free but if u like it i hope theres loyalty there n u will repay me n go out n buy it

n to the main thread its impossible if u want it to realised in stores across the country in the same day, your sayin the time it takes to transport over a milllion cds to every big store in america, all the people invoved in the time before realise from poriginal packaging to the transporters to the individuals that work in the stores not 1 of them wud see it n pocket a copy for themselves n put it on the net?
