:dwillhuh: Kay Slay put it out on a mixtape after Jay performed it at Summer Jam



Edit: I forgot about Slay's classic shyt talk on the intro :russ: "I'ma show y'all nikkas how gully I keep it. I wasn't even at Summer Jam!"

Kay slay was that nikka then...recalls a hood gathering when his show used to come on

:russ: at music not being as "accessible" then... you nikkas kill me. It was even easier then... only question then was whether or not you had high-speed access cause certain people were still struggling with dial-up. There were programs on the computer made specifically for finding mp3s even after Napster... people would Limewire everything and people always shared their libraries. Them IRC channels used to funnel those group releases and people shared them everywhere.

Anyway, op is lost saying it didn't come out early. I went to school and from the very first day people were waiting for me to talk shyt already. I was getting roasted as a Nas stan by the Jay fanatics for Take Over. Grade 10.
Its ether that leaked late, yet I recall hearing that a cpl weeks before stillmatic dropped

actually was bumpin that album again 2 days ago :blessed:

I been on that Killarmy wave as well, they had a dope ass year.

CIA byShogun and Beretta 9 featuring most of the Army
T3 by Dom Pachino
Killarmy album by 9th Prince
Soldiers Need Love by Dom Pachino
Algorithm by 4th Disciple
Truth is Even Darker by Shogun & Beretta 9
Target Practice 3 by Shogun
T4 by Dom Pachino

Except for Target Practice 3 which I don't really like, everything is pretty much flames. The 4th album doesn't feature any KA members though, and the Killarmy album doesn't feature 4th, Killa Sin or Dom.

Oh yeah Blueprint was cool :lolbron:
