Detroit Rapper Gets Too Popular for His Own Good

By: Rizoh

       Chances are you’ve already heard Black Milk’s Popular Demand, even though it’s not due out until March 13th. Like most eagerly-awaited albums, Popular Demand has spilled onto the hands of bootleggers, and Fat Beats Records is aware of this. Hiphopcrack.com has learned that Fat Beats will now add a bonus CD in order to combat the leak.

      Whereas many would resolve to finger-pointing here, the Detroit rapper/producer isn’t complaining. "The label felt they had to give people more than their money’s worth," said Black Milk. "I think the album will be that much more special if the fans can get some extra songs on there."

      The bonus disc contains 6 exclusive instrumentals and 3 non-album tracks, including “Keep It Live,” collaboration with Mr. Porter of D-12.

      Black Milk got his start by lacing tracks for Slum Village and has produced songs for Lloyd Banks, Pharoahe Monch, and Canibus. Popular Demand is due out on March 13th via Fat Beats.
