My Ghetto Report Card is supposed to be dropping on March 14th so I'm curious as to what kind of marketing/promotion has been done for the album so far. Of course the video is out, but are there ads placed in magazines yet? Has anyone seen any snipes, bus benches, etc... for the album? Are there commercials running?

The only thing the BME website's E-40 section has is a small portion of a larger bio/press release that was used to promote Grit & Grind. Seems strange.

If there is a bunch of promo out there I apologize. I just haven't seen any of it or heard anyone mention it.

It is nice to see that 40 is right there at the forefront when you go to mtv2.com, but I'm curious about what's out there besides the video though.

The video looked like it cost more than a bucket of chicken to make. They broke off some change for the video, I don't see why they wouldn't do it for promotion.
