Only heard the Kane song so far, but I'd put it amongst the best of the year.

[Tired & Broke]

The torae/juxx joint is crazy. Also really enjoyed the Midas and the Gutta/Jaysuan joints. The BDK joint is the highlight of the album. Overall I'll give it a 6.5/10.

the Rakim joint is solid imo. Nice to hear him on a a decent (albeit not outstanding) beat for the first time in a while.

The way Kane manages a dope track every few years makes you wonder if he could drop a good album. I'm sure he wouldnt have any problems getting some good producers on board.

[Echo Leader]

At this point I think I'm more content with a handful of dope Kane tracks every few years.

I think Port Authority 1 + 2 are the real albums; Newport Authority 1+2 are the mixtapes. All are solid so far

Newport Authority 1 (from 2007) is a "Mixtape", but Newport Authority 2 is an actual album... and both Port Authority albums are also official albums. *shrugs*

Not unusual. Free mixtapes sometimes go on sale for collectors and people attached to physical media. Raekwon did the same thing for "Lost Jewlry."
