Jay-Z perhaps taking a page out of Prince's playbook, and boosting his soundscans a bit by throwing in his "Kingdom Come" album with Nets ticket purchases (if these get counted):
Jay-Z Offers Album Free of Charge to Ticket Purchasers soundslam
Rapper Jay-Z has literally* taken the promotion of his return album, Kingdom Come, to the next level. As a way of rewarding those that purchase a premiere week package for the New Jersey Nets, Jay-Z, in turn, is offering each purchaser a free copy of the album, which is currently set to hit stores on November 21, 2006. In addition, Jay-Z will personally hand-sign 100 copies of the CDs, which will be randomly distributed.
* When my debut album drops, I'm giving away a free copy with every overuse of the word "literally."
