Come the morning after Election Day 2016; the United States will either have it's first female President-elect, or it will have some of the rarest recordings in music history to go along with an impending Donald Trump presidency. This according to Pharma pro Martin Shkreli, who has promised to leak his chest of unreleased material, should the Republican candidate defeat Hillary Clinton.
"If Trump wins, my entire unreleased music collection, including unheard Nirvana, Beatles, and of course, Wu-Tang, comes out, for free," Shkreli tweeted on Wednesday night, October 26.
Weeks before his high-profile arrest and federal indictment on securities fraud charges, the disgraced pharmaceutical executive came to the public's attention when he revealed himself as the winning bidder for exclusive ownership of the Wu-Tang Clan's 7th studio album. The $2 million purchase was a big deal as only one copy of Once Upon a Time In Shaolin exists. The double-disc album's auctioning would ultimately lead to the Guinness Book of Records to certify it as the most valuable record ever, a distinction it beat out work by Elvis Presley and The Beatles to attain.
With Shkreli's acquisition of Once Upon a Time In Shaolin he agreed to a stipulation which would bar him from making money off of it until the year 2103, although he is allowed to share it at no cost.
