‘Heartbreak’ and ‘Theater’ Released; Other Special Downloads

Today was a pretty exciting day in the world of hip hop, especially when two great artists released their albums on the same day. Kanye West released his fourth album “808s & Heartbreak” [download here] while fellow rapper Ludacris released his sixth album “Theater of the Mind” [download here].

The albums came amid a mix of emotions from all hip hop fans around the world. Pre-release for both of these albums were mixed, with many fans wondering why Kanye West was changing up his game in his latest release, to others forming a general consensus of excitement for Ludacris’ upcoming album. I already know where I stand on the two albums, but you will get to read about it in the official reviews later on.

And if two new albums aren’t enough for you, it gets even better. In celebration of both Kanye’s and Ludacris’ releases, iTunes is offering “College Dropout” and “The Red Light District” for only $4.99 each. That’s right, $4.99. So for any of you fans who still haven’t picked up those albums, now’s your chance!

And we also want to know which album you did download today. Was it Kanye’s “808s and Heartbreak”? Or was it Ludacris’ “Theater of the Mind”? You can cast your vote in this weeks poll to the right of this post.
