Amazon Screws Up Again, Releases Joel Ortiz's 'Free Agent' Album 3 Months Early


Joell Ortiz's highly anticipated 2nd album 'Free Agent' was supposed to be released in January 2011.

However, due to a monumental screw up by Amazon, the album leaked yesterday and is now all over the internet.

Somehow the online retailer put the album out on sale through mail order and instant download.

Joell tweeted about the mess up, blaming his label E1 for the mistake.


This is the second time Amazon has made this mistake. In December 2009 they shipped out 500 copies of Lil Wayne's 'Rebirth' album to customers, 2 months before it's release date.

No word yet on whether or not E1 will rush 'Free Agent' to stores as is, or rework the project.
