Remember copping this first day after listening to the unmastered version of Slave & The Master for weeks
Back onwhen it dropped, dudes were saying that this album was gonna age well and be considered a classic in the future, and i agree. It holds up VERY well. Arguably a Top 3 or 4 Nas album.
Don't know why this wasn't included on the album too, wasn't it like a street single at one point?
Testify. Only song on this worth coming back to.
4.5/5
Amazing album. The Godfather of the modern "Woke" era. nikkas won't admit it though![]()

Anyone have more info on this? I like collecting tracks off shyt like this.I wonder what the original album sounded like though. Some of the songs leaked, but I remember reading an article where they talked about songs that Will.I.Am and Alchemist produced. There were supposedly four piano interludes produced by Jay Electronica. No I.D. had production on the album including a version of "Project Roach".
He started that album with Diddy's Hitmen, No I.D., and DJ Toomp, but only Toomp's work made the final album. Toomp revealed that he has four other records with Nas in the vaults. Khaled's "I'm On" was supposed to be on the album as well. It was pitched to Nas as a single, but when Nas declined it as a single, Khaled kept it.
