Kendrick Lamar Early Album Release Stopped
. Some lucky Kendrick Lamar fans were able to purchase his sophomore album, "To Pimp a Butterfly," before its official release when iTunes made the album available for sale early before pulling the plug on the early sales. The album is not scheduled to be released until March 23rd but as we previously reported, this weekend iTunes began selling both the clean and explicit version of the album. But iTunes shut down the early release on Monday morning. Top Dawg Entertainment CEO Anthony Tiffith took to his Twitter account to express his anger over the early release. He tweeted, "I WOULD LIKE 2 PERSONALLY THANK @Interscope FOR F***ING UP OUR RELEASE... SOMEBODY GOTS 2 PAY 4 THIS MISTAKE !!!! #TOP." He then followed up with the following tweets, "this is the kraziest s**t ever." and "i will deal with bs later.... lets focus on the album.....TO PIMP A BUTTERFLY." But it appears that the early release may have been intended as Lamar's manager and Top Dawg Entertainment President Dave Free tweeted soon after the album went on sale on iTunes: "go brazy #TPAB," and added, "yea this is real life people.. #TPAB."
