WHY ALBUM WAS NEVER at HMV and CHAPTERS!!

I may be the 1st African born U.S. hip hop artist to independently record and release a full length album in Canada. My album includes a mixture of Canadian and American producers and Artists alike.

Accomplishing this task has been a huge challenge. It’s been a pleasure doing music in Canada though the Canadian music industry operates quite differently from the rest of the world. Major radio stations have not played my singles yet partly because I’m an indie artist and not a Canadian. We even serviced singles to the only urban station in Ontario, Canada that plays international music. You can help speed up the process by requesting your favourite Freddy Will song on FLOW 93.5 FM and Z 103.5 FM. Thank you.

                   

I want my fans to know that Ghetto Breed ENT is doing our best to ensure that fans all over Canada have equal access to our products just as much as those in other parts of the world.

We were notified by Soulkiss Entertainment that the album will be available at HMV and Chapters but according to our sources that was a lie. I wonna apologize to all my fans in Canada for my album not being available in stores on the release date as we promised. We will re-release the album on July 7, 2009 along with a book written by Freddy Will. I don’t believe we got sabotaged even though this disappointment by my distributors (Soulkiss Entertainment/dep/Universal) have affected my sales. They haven’t given me a formal explanation on paper as to what happened but a rep from dep stated to my manager that there was a glitch in their system. We’re currently waiting on a formal explanation as to why and what is being done to correct the problem. Thank you for your support.

Ghetto Breed Distributions (our distribution company outside of Canada) will also have the album available through Freddywill.com. You will be able to order the album along with other merchandises directly from my website and have it mailed to you promptly. Since Canada is where I recorded the album and I was fortunate to obtain two national distribution and promotion deals there, we decided to do a separate Canadian release which was September 23rd 2008. However, in July 7, 2009 all my fans will be able to purchase hard copies of the Ghetto Breed Distributed package of the re-released album through my website... Packages will include a revamped version of the album with new singles and an all new book (content to be disclosed soon).

Thank you
