Tuface

Tuface’s new CD was announced to be a history making and game changing initiative considering the amount of work and money to put into an album project. The former price of a hundred and fifty naira was said to be in no way profitable.
Hence, Tuface and his management as we exclusive reported months back  would have the international edition for his ‘Unstoppable’ album which is on sale now sell for a thousand naira. The CD in addition to audio tracks would have video, pictures and wallpaper.
“We are tired of pirates selling our intellectual properties at ridiculous prices.” Tuface’s manager reportedly gave as reasons for the new prison.
There are indications that fans are not adjusting to the new price and expressing their displeasure over the CD’s price. In some situation, abusive.
“The question remains is hiking the price a solution? An average fan doesn’t not see the problem of CD pricing and pirates. Hence the frown at the one thousand naira price but we would just have to wait and see what happens at the end and I see a low price version of the CD coming”, a radio commentator said.
Fans who are not happy about the ‘high’ price are also operating a Facebook group called Nigerians say NO to Tuface Idibia selling his album for N1,000. The reason for the group as stated is “ to make an awareness, concerning the outrageous decision by a popular artist in Nigeria called 2face selling his latest Album for 1000 Naira, considering the hardship in Nigeria, and knowing full well an average Nigerian cannot afford to buy it, what becomes of them?”
What becomes of people who can’t afford to buy Tuface’s album for 1, 000? An insider inform that more artistes would be following suit and the question again is: Is N1, 000 not too expensive for an album? or the artistes and labels would consider a low price edition months after release of the deluxe version?
