Hip-Hop Rumors: Did Angel Haze Fake-Leak Her Album?

Keeping it real, I don’t know much of anything about this Angel Haze person. But, that’s the point…I kinda do now. The rapper chick from uptown tried to leak her album on SoundCloud yesterday. And before you could say “I got mine,” her label Universal snatched it off the internet. Good for them. You can’t let these sla…, I mean artists, get away with bucking the system. I mean, they took it off so fast that there’s not even a leak coming up in google. The shut down happened so swiftly, that rumors started to swirl that this was just a publicity stunt to get us talking about the December 30 release date of Dirty Gold, her debut album. HEY! Did I just fall for the okey doke? I think I did. Anyway, I’m not mad. She’s talented and deserves to be heard just like anybody else. And, Beyonce stans…everybody ain’t trying to be Beyonce! Just because somebody leaks an album, they are not trying to be like Mrs. Carter, or Female Jesus or whatever you call B, b.

Here is what Haze said on Twitter:

“My labels didn’t think that I would do it, but I did. It’s hard to put at risk everything I’ve spent this year working on but I had to. For both me and you guys. No one should ever be afforded the opportunity to f**k with your dreams. REGARDLESS OF WHO THEY ARE. They do not own you or your faith or your future and because of what you guys helped me show them. My labels have agreed to release Dirty Gold December 30th. Uk & US. (Rest of the world, we are coming for you as well). Thank you all. Night.”
