Wiz Khalifa and Curren$y recently revealed the cover art for their collaborative "Live In Concert" mixtape and it was announced that the tape would be dropping on August 8th. But due to legal issues involving the clearing of samples, the two wanted to play it safe and were forced to push back the date of the release. The duo took to Twitter and explained their reasoning.
Curren$y tweeted "We wouldn't feel comfortable dropping #LiveInConcert until we get the samples cleared with how these suits keep poppin up.. Mixtapes ain't safe. Lots of lawsuits being handed out to folks for making free mixtape jams..Wiz,Mac,myself even..We gotta play this one smart..We got it tho."
Wiz also let his fans know what the deal is.
"Just As Spitta Said We Gotta Make Sure All The Samples Are Cleared Before We Drop The Tape To Respect The Artists And Publishers We Sampled. Kush Castles Will Still Be Appearing From The Sky. Just Not Today."
Check out the rest of their tweets and keep in mind that a replacement date has not been announced as of yet.
