it ain't too late to release it mastered and everything. They should do it for the fans and just get it out just for the sake of it. The one on the album though has the "Hell on earth" signature sound so i'm glad that version made it

the reel got lost so the only way to have it released/remastered is if Havoc remade the beat.....the snippet is just from some old mixtape

I wonder how it leaked to get premiered on a mixtape and then boom the reel got lost.
Hav didn't have his own studio at that point, so I'm assuming either the engineer, or some other shady employee at the studio bounced the track down and gave/sold it to that DJ as an exclusive. I'm thinking the same person probably stole the reel (just my guess)

Someone remake the beat and put the leaked studio acapella over it

Someone did that with story to tell and it came out good

They would have to have the original tapes to do a remaster.

The Beat sounds like something that was recorded for Hell on Earth

If someone remakes the beat, I can mix the vocals over top. As far as I know, only Biggie's verse was leaked on the acapella.....I'd have to make a DIY pella for the Lox verses....
