Here's practically everything that's not on the Collector's Edition Mixtape (which is the source of those 192 CBR MP3s):

It's the only (official) CD / compilation by Children of the Corn. Released in 2003 by Digga (the producer) on Six Figga Entertainment, available everywhere online as 192 CBR MP3s (for some reason, I've never seen upgrades).

Yeah, I'm guessing since it's a bootleg vinyl and not the American Dream / Harlem U.S.A. single or the A Star is Born single that it's this:

Yeah when we first talked to Digga a couple years ago (2005 - 2007) he said he was just looking for someone to put the Caged Fury demos out but that still hasn't gone anywhere so who knows at this point. I've been wanting to hear those for years though.

I just downloaded that, vapo. Will listen in a minute.

TBS, when this thread started I downloaded everything from them
in that link to your blog. I threw a bunch on CD for the whip, thanks.
I remember having "I Remember When" on a Bobbito tape back in the day.
The one I threw on CD abruptly cuts off before the song finishes.
Is this the only version available? Or did I maybe put the wrong
version on CD?

Thanks for checkin' it out, that's a full discography at this point as far as I know, a lot of those links have exclusive material so the links get passed around uncredited on various blogs and forums.

But Brian Armstead, Derek "Bloodshed" Armstead's brother (and Cam'Ron's cousin) contacted us last month on YouTube because of a video I re-ripped and got added to YouTube of The Children of the Corn in that French documentary on Harlem (up on YouTube or downloadable from that link at the top of the page), so it's definitely worth it for me to deal with usual internet bullshit if it means I can ask questions to some of these people (or in this case help them find something they've been looking for for years as well).

Yeah the version I have up is labeled as a demo mix and is different than the Collector's Edition Mixtape version (at the very least it doesn't have the Six Figga Entertainment drops / tags / voice overs). Those are the only two versions I know of though. Listening to it now it doesn't exactly cut off, in fact it's longer than the released mix by almost a full minute.

Oh, okay. Maybe I put the wrong one on CD. Or maybe the way it ends, I
just thought that it was cut off. Whatever the case, I strongly advise
everybody to get all that COTC stuff from that link to TheBigSleep's blog.

That's dope that you could help these guys out, too. It sucks when the people
who made the music(or are related to) don't even have copies themselves anymore.
Good shit. :cheers:

yeh, i dig that Collectors Edition CD - picked up a copy off eBay back in the day and run it non-stop!

one of the illest groups around before all the bs + deaths.

would love to hear some new stuff from the same era before Cam and Mase fell off.

anyone recommend any of the earlier other solos?

- Cam'ron - S.D.E. + Confessions Of Fire mainly produced by Digga..?

No way, what?! You're the fucking man Mike, I really hope this works out. What about Two Hard Motherfuckers? Have you heard about anything from them floating around as well?

I'm pretty sure Digga owns the rights to all the Caged Fury material (at least that's what he told us) so I bet he has most if not all of that. As far as Three the Hard Way, that must be even harder to get since it was just goin' around Harlem on tapes, right?
