^^ Very true. The CD Company won't even press up your CD in the first place if they hear a jacked beat they recognize. And they're cracking down more and more these days, because THEY can be held liable as well.

That 5 and 10 formula is good, but I'd almost reverse it. Either that or make 5 out of the "10" from past projects and other collaborations, sort of a Hits and Unreleased sort of a thing.
I really do hate "mixtape tracks" now though. Whatever happened to using JACKED beats for freestyles, and ORIGINAL beats for songs? Now people getting it all fucked up......
Ain't no rebirth happening with all that going on.
