[madstadik]

I got that FTD scene rls. Wish sox would release this shit properly

[uniqueterror]

You know the version that leaked in 2007? Offhand, how does it compare to the one she released? I haven't heard it in such a long time but noticed that Game's feature isn't on the Bandcamp one.

[madstadik]

Which album are you referring to?

[TheBigSleep]

Says in the post subject of his post. Rah Digga's Everything is a Story.

[madstadik]

Gotcha. I bought that shit in flac. Sound quality varied. Not as dope as dirty harriet

[ScholarWenis]

I didn't go through the whole thread but I'll add these:

Little Indian's LP on Premeditated Records
Alien Nation album on Pallas Records (they got dropped for Crucial Conflict)
Sunny Cheeba's 12" on Lethal Records (dude from Punk Barbarians)
Brooklyn Zoo album "Masters Of The Zooniverse" (?), most of the members ended up in jail

[ScholarWenis]

Tracey Lee-Live From The (215) (digi) comes to mind too

I got this if anyone needs it, just say the word.

[madstadik]

I got that tray lee too. He is also selling it on his website. Shitty 160kbps

[Architek]

Call O Da Wild goddammit
Frankenstein but hopefully not for long

[Verge]

yeah man, i'd love to hear that. I remember seeing an ad for it in a magazine way back.

[madstadik]

Just a warning. The sound quality is a notch above that crustified dibbs rip

[Debonair_P]

I wouldn't mind hearing that Saukrates album too, if you get a chance to upload it.

[Mista93]

About the Saukrates album me too :)

[shadowmaster]

yeah man, i'd love to hear that. I remember seeing an ad for it in a magazine way back.

I remember hearing two different versions of that - I think, both were tape rips probably the same one renamed. Can't remember it, thinking Father Time sounded ever so slightly different. The audio quality was bad, very bad. Did he end up working for Redman and then just disappear?

[madstadik]

He got signed to gillahouse/def jam and sat on the shelf... save a few guest features and maybe one random 12" single that was about it on Def Jam

[Debonair_P]

Never knew about this one (sold on eBay the other day) but I'd definitely be interested in hearing it.

[unheard78]

I don't think this was mentioned here, but the Jungle Brothers' Crazy Wisdom Masters is one I'd love to see get an official release, especially with the title track that never leaked.

I'm still dreaming of a superior version of KMD's Black Bastards, since the official release sounds more like a bootleg.

Oh yeah, obviously Pay Jay, or The Diary, or whatever it's now called.

Does the InI album count as not having gotten a proper release? Or is Pete Rock just out of his mind? I've heard stories about his revisionist memories and statements.

[HipHopInfinityRIPLOL]

that trends of culture looks delicious. that would explain the few singles they had floating around 95.

[Stieflkater]

^exactly - would also like to hear that album...

[Mista93]

A ... I didn't knew that they have that LP " When trend man come " ...

[Verge]

Yeah I honestly never knew about that Trendz album either. The singles say it can't be that great but I'd still like to hear it

[Knowbody]

You got a link to that auction Debonair? Do you know for how much it got sold? Thx for an info, that album looks interesting...

[Debonair_P]

No problem, here's the link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/trends-of-cultu ... 2591f77a8f" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It sold for $72 which isn't much compared to how crazy these things sometimes go. Although the singles weren't amazing, I'd still like to hear the album.

[Knowbody]

Thx for your quick response. Indeed a decent price for a rare promo item. Wonder if this album got released as a promo in other formats as well...

[Debonair_P]

Given how long it's taken for the tape to surface (and that those tracks aren't mastered), I'd say CD/wax versions are highly unlikely.

[madstadik]

Did that seller have any other goodies?

[madstadik]

I know i shared it with yall awhile back but ras kass is selling "Goldyn Chyld" digitally on his bandcamp for 10.00. Flac and MP3

[STAM]

If im not wrong this ones was never officially released
