Good lookin’ on these tracks….The Lord Finesse is fire and should have been on the LP! The Nas joint should have made the album too, but if I recall correctly there were sample clearance problems ……

Too bad the Digital tracks sound like shit…

You’re the best Noz!
Out of curiosity, besides these and the song from the cassette of UGK’s “Riden Dirty,” what other cassette only non-album cuts can you name?
October 18th, 2007 at 1:33 pm
that nas song is also on the european version of It Was Written…
Noz, do you have Ridin’ Dirty on cassette? I’ve heard that the outro (which is great) is significantly longer than the cd-version?

Shout out to my man DJ DNA, the Nations Nigga aka Baltimore’s top mixtape DJ.

LOL noz I was about to lose some respect for you if you were actually posting music from that wack Chopper mixtape and not just using it as a clever visual aid (I unfortunately have heard it, since I know DNA and he sends me a stack of his mixtapes now and then).

GOD BLESS YOU!!!!. I’ve been searching for that DU Sound of the Underground joint EVERYWHERE. OMG I could hug you! I remember bumpin that on cassette back in the day. The tightest track on the Sex Packets tape.
