Well I'm not a rap fan in any sense of the word, but this release looks really interesting for several reasons. First off, with a title like that, it has to be interesting. Secondly, as far as rappers go, Saul Williams is one of the few that I actually might enjoy from samples I've heard. Third, production from Renzor, which sounds very interesting, especially for a rap album. Lastly, distribution. Remember In Rainbows? It's like that. There are 2 options, one for 5 dollars and a choice of quality and the other is free for 192kbps.
Anyone else interested/excited?

we discussed this, but it's produced by Trent Reznor, IMO one of the better producers of our generation (although he still can't manage to make Marylin Manson sound good Wink)

Interesting. I've been meaning to check out Saul Williams for a while now, this seems like a good time to do it.

I wish I could pay something for these albums (Radiohead & this) as the idea is brilliant, but not owning a credit card makes things more than a little complicated.

I haven't heard of Saul Williams before. I'll give him a listen later today. The fact that Reznor is the producer made me very curious.

Same here. I feel guilty, but know that I have no way of paying

Same here. The production is fantastic, the satire is biting, not 5 stars but easily the best rap album I've heard.

You should hear some of Saul's other stuff. He's quite incredible.  He also isn't a bad actor.  Check out "Slam".
