Hey, Nick Youssef here. One year ago (and a few days), I released my very first comedy album. Many of you purchased it either digitally or on vinyl. Many streamed it on Spotify and the like. By now, the majority of people who were going to buy it did, and since an increasing number of people are streaming rather than purchasing these days, I figure I should just give it away. So, here it is: Stop Not Owning This. Free. Click download and it is yours to keep. Forever. I ASK ONE FAVOR: if you do download it, please share it. Spread the free love around. Upload it to torrent sites, make copies and give them to friends, re-post the link that led you here. Anything. I just want it to be heard and appreciated. That's all I ask. Take it for free and give it to someone else for free. That's a pretty good deal I think. Thank you and enjoy.
