Fake/Real Twiitter account for Marcus is now following the World Economic Forum page.
Did you screenshot this with a timestamp? Because I don't see it atm. His following is 0.
Didn't grab a screenshot cause I figured everyone was tired of hearing me talk about this.
But I can guarantee you that for the better part of yesterday and the days before he was following WEF
You have my word
Pity. If there’s something I learned from all things BoC throughout the years is to always take screenshots and make backups. Archive.org wayback machine always a good idea too.
PS: you figured everyone was tired of it, yet you posted it? Better screenshot it too next time.

Sorry if it's been mentioned already
Maybe a new trend
I remember Radiohead doing something similar before A Moon Shaped Pool
Yeah, most bands nowadays tend to do this. I think it's too predictable of an approach for BoC.

A few years ago I mentioned that I felt that The Bros were somewhat milking the cow by selling t-shirts and re-releases and not offering a new album, just wanting fresh money. I respect that it is their music and can sell the sample to whoever they want, but it is just shocking to me to hear the nice Everything You Do Is A Balloon chopped up and misused or wasted in such a horrendous song by $UICIDEBOY$. It is like going to a Medieval Cathedral in Belgium and painting graffiti on the walls, columns, stained glass, and the Priest applauding and thinking: "Ow, this is going to bring more tourists to my Cathedral".
Anyways, they know better than me why they have sold it and they can do as they please with their tracks, but I feel kind of sad about it!
Es not that big of a deal man. In a perfect world all producers would take from each other with no legal repercussions. Nothing is fundamentally changing because a mediocre trap group sampled a BoC tune.
I eagerly await the day Intellectual Property is no longer taken seriously
you're in a psycho war, that's what your permit's for

Prob just 2 signal fans for a new drop without being super disclosing,, to build more hype while not ruining the mystique. I feel like BoC have been doing this for 9 years( almost 10!) )

Honestly to me it doesn't even feel like almost 10 years.. I feel like the gap between Headphase and Harvest was much longer for some reason. Strange how time plays tricks on the mind
