I don't know how much is a good price for an audio cd, but the N150- N250 we pay in the back street's ridiculous considering the efforts that "some" of the artist put in. I guess we just don't value intellect and creativity yet. If you love the artist and you feel the job's worth N1000 go enjoy the cd. |

for crying out loud, the man walks his a*s off in the studio, spends sleepless nights working on stuff and invests his own cash do u think he bought a carton of freebie cds and just burnt it. many of us want others to buy services we offer for good money, but we dont want to do the same or others. whatever you want for yourself you will get .if you cANT afford to play then keep shut and applaud don't hate.there the 150 version for you if you can afford even that one. |

What is wrong with all these cocky pricks, just because I wont buy Tuface's record for a thousand grand, I am a pauper. . Abeg spare us the bullcrap, all these hypocrites. . Truth be told, lately, my homey does mediocre music, he should concentrate on making better music before hiking the price of his album. . . Besides, na im loss cos I see majority of all these fakies-claiming they buy records for a milli bucks- rushing to Alaba mrkt to haggle the 150 bucks that they sell it there. . . |

It's called free market- TUFACE has the right to set his prices and consumers have the right to say this is how much we think your CD is worth- Fans will buy if they like it. I remembered OJ Productions making IGODO and selling the VHS around N350, some folks complained and He OJ, was making a lot of money from his sales. It's time we stopped comparing creativity with piracy |

Thelonius: hear this. [b]I often buy albums for N100. . .until i got wind of hw much its sold at Alaba. A friend of mine went to Alaba and i asked him 2 buy me Omawumi's and GT Tha Guitar Man's CDS. . . @ d rate of N50 each!!! Ridiculous Indeed!!! |

This isn't even a big deal, He has the right to price his intellectual property as he deems fit. If you can only pay N150 for a CD priced at N1K then its obviously not for you. I will buy this CD at that price cos I like the "Only Me" & "Implication" video and song respectively. Moreover we owe it to ourselves to encourage ppl who try to improve things in this country. The pirates you support with their N150 CDs are part of what's wrong with this country. |

Tell 'em. . .! Outta bitterness, Some people are just not making sense anymore. |
Re: Fans Frown At Ngn1,000 Price Tag For Tuface’s Unstoppable Ii Album. by otilox(m): 7:08pm On May 31, 2010 |
so which would be preferred, CD sells for N1,000 and less people can afford it, so they look out for free downloads, or one guy buys and 200 plus people rip and burn it, , or CD sells for N150 to N250 and everybody can afford it, and more copies are sold, as one would rather drop small amount to own it that go thru the stress of downloading the whole album or ripping and burning the scarce copy. Thing is either ways, the top price copies would soon be replaced by bootlegs. I though the new market model was to offer as cheap as bootleggers will sell so as to fight em with stiff price wars. well, time will tell the success of this effort. just downloaded a few tracks tho, cos i havent found the CD to buy yet. |

Casfan123: a man decides 2 sell his property @ a particular price. . . now he's a thief? Just know there's KARMA |
Re: Fans Frown At Ngn1,000 Price Tag For Tuface’s Unstoppable Ii Album. by hectorswag(m): 9:52am On Jun 01, 2010 |
tayo_ast:hmmm, i still don't think dat the guy should be selling his property @ a price thats way beyond market price. If customers appreciate what he's offering but can't afford it, and can see that they can still get the same music for a lesser price, i see no reason for any discrimination for me the highest price i've ever bought a naija music album of any artist is #150, and the highest i know i can ever spend on just one music cd of any naija artist is #500!! Except there's a special gift inside worth paying as much as 1k on it, i'm not buying!!! Even MI's illegal music album, came with a sound city blast magazine, a mag with over 50pages and it cost just #500, so why should i go and buy one cd with ordinary paper as cover for #1k!! mchew |
Re: Fans Frown At Ngn1,000 Price Tag For Tuface’s Unstoppable Ii Album. by topkin(m): 11:10am On Jun 01, 2010 |
no wahala, i go buy the pirated version now! |
Re: Fans Frown At Ngn1,000 Price Tag For Tuface’s Unstoppable Ii Album. by tayoast(m): 11:18am On Jun 01, 2010 |
hectorswag: guy, all u paid for was d magz, not d aibum. The album was a mixtape which M.I. himself said pple shdnt buy but download on d internet free of charge, u do know cost price is determined by production cost, aiight?? |
Re: Fans Frown At Ngn1,000 Price Tag For Tuface’s Unstoppable Ii Album. by hectorswag(m): 2:07pm On Jun 01, 2010 |
that was jst a random example man, the point i am trying to emphasize is that, except if there's something else, something extra, other than the cd alone, that comes together with the whole package, then its not worth spending my hard earned #1k on it. and what do you mean by cost price is determined by production price? are you saying the cost of producing that one cd, is what affected the price of selling it, so that it should now cost up to #1k!! Even an imported blu-ray cd version of a james bond movie doesn't cost that much, if you know where to get it! Which kind of material is the cd made of that it should now affect the price. Shey na cd i wan chop?? The same song, the whole complete album, i'd still get it for even #100. Tu-face is not a thief, but for him to approve such amount on his cds, something other A-class artistes of his calibre haven't even dared, is nothing but greed! The highest i've known was when Dbang was selling his cds only in sweet sensation outlets, but that one made more sense cuz it is when you buy meals worth #700 and above, you get a free copy of the CV album, but Tuface, i'll buy it #1k, no free meals, no free mags, nothing!! Thats sooooo disappointing!! |
Re: Fans Frown At Ngn1,000 Price Tag For Tuface’s Unstoppable Ii Album. by tayoast(m): 2:13pm On Jun 01, 2010 |
hectorswag: FYI, he's not selling d usual CD we buy around here. Its actually world standard. An enhanced CD at a lotta features (as i heard). So hw much did u buy d Blu-ray disc?? |
Re: Fans Frown At Ngn1,000 Price Tag For Tuface’s Unstoppable Ii Album. by masterj1: 2:18pm On Jun 01, 2010 |
He should take a cue from the people he is trying to copy. In the meantime he can sell uploads, reach out to his fans (i am not one) and sell copies or 'launch them'. He should also improve his communication skills!!! i culd go on. |
Re: Fans Frown At Ngn1,000 Price Tag For Tuface’s Unstoppable Ii Album. by hectorswag(m): 2:24pm On Jun 01, 2010 |
@tayo, hmmm, World class CDs, no kidding!! Tuface is really thinking big, i like that well, #1k isn't that much to spend on just one CD, but from common sense, i know that, you shouldn't spend more money on something you know you can get @ a lesser price! By the way, a blue-ray DVD cost about #500!! |
Re: Fans Frown At Ngn1,000 Price Tag For Tuface’s Unstoppable Ii Album. by tayoast(m): 2:31pm On Jun 01, 2010 |
hectorswag: how d'u meant 'at a lesser price'? Blu-ray disc for N500 |
Re: Fans Frown At Ngn1,000 Price Tag For Tuface’s Unstoppable Ii Album. by hectorswag(m): 3:06pm On Jun 01, 2010 |
tayo_ast:check your dictionary for the word "less" or "lesser" and use the definition to relate it with the sentence as a whole, maybe you'll get the sense of what i'm saying tayo_ast: Yes oooo, @ my personal distributors place in Idumota yeye |
Re: Fans Frown At Ngn1,000 Price Tag For Tuface’s Unstoppable Ii Album. by Gepheral: 4:19pm On Jun 01, 2010 |
I don't think the price is what the so called 'fans' should be wailing about, but the major thing is the quality & amount of hardwork invested into the work, This album is definately gonna make a change in the Nigeria's music industry, judging from the dynamic nature of the disk, other freebiees and the red hot "IMPLICATION" amongst others track, He sure is 9ja best, Thumbsup, Ecstasy For Real , I D , * * * ~ LORD GEPHERAL ~ |
Re: Fans Frown At Ngn1,000 Price Tag For Tuface’s Unstoppable Ii Album. by tayoast(m): 8:01pm On Jun 01, 2010 |
hectorswag: poor u! evry1 knows wat less/lesser means. I just dont get d part where u said 'u shdnt spend mnore on sth u can get at a lesser price' it doesnt make sense |
Re: Fans Frown At Ngn1,000 Price Tag For Tuface’s Unstoppable Ii Album. by An0nimus: 2:35am On Jun 02, 2010 |
When I hurd this at first I was like 'WHAT THA, ??!!'but having had a rethink and checkd out posts on this thread I think its a brave move.others will follow suit(if it succeeds I guess).nat buying either d real deal or Alaba(dats jus me)na Terry G own I go buy.:p Offtopic- @u-kno-yaselves Never say its cos dudes can't afford the album.thats not a very nice comment.my decision not 2 buy sumthing doesn't mean i dnt have d money,does it? Finally n sincerely, most of us hia go either download,buy 'Alaba version',burn 4rm homeboiz(wey be 'correct 2baba fans') or get via bluetooth(as people wey buy go pack am 4 phone) make we talk true na! |
