Album Released on USB Uzi because Piratez are Original Gangstas

Now that digital music releases aren't shocking any longer expect to see a few more of these on the digital horizon. Rap trio, Get Busy Committee (GBC), is releasing their latest album "Uzi Does it" on a USB flash drive shaped like an Uzi machine gun. The Uzi will likely have just enough space to hold the album's tracks in MP3 format and no more. The memory stick fits into the Uzi as its clip. It would be really cool if the follow up album became available as an extra-mag-only version. That would enhance the environmental benefits of departing from the CD and DVD distribution industry. Those "keep" cases and packaging are huge generators of landfill waste and any move away from wasteful is a good one.

Listening to the album the band is definitely trying to move in a slightly different direction from overly "serious" street rap. The Uzi icon makes that a little hard to believe without listening though. The picture of the Koala with an Uzi on the CD cover is almost adorable and only a little disturbing. We're fairly certain they were trying for the latter. The Uzi should hit e-tailers in early November.
