So this deluxe version of I Am is basically an officially release of the bootleg with 2 unreleased songs.

It says 2xLP so I would think more than the one disc that got leaked but who knows

Maybe Kids Have All the Fun is one of the unreleased songs

This would be dope if it is. Haven’t heard of anything up until this post tho.

looks pretty UNofficial to me. I didn't see Mass Appeal or Nas written anywhere and I don't see this anywhere else on the net except that one record store. I had one quick google glance but you would expect it to be SOMEWHERE besides that website if it was official.

Mass Appeal doesn't own I Am, Sony does. Legacy Recordings is a Sony subsidiary. Looks legit.

I'd imagine part of the reason a couple of the recent Nas albums had Sony distribution was both parties patching up their relationship in preparation for this, and maybe other things (Lost Tapes 3 or 4, depending on which one Def Jam gets).

 

[H.S.]

A few weeks ago the guy that leaks Nas info on reddit said Magic 3 originally wasn't supposed to drop so early, and that we'd know why soon. This is probably what he was hinting at.

Yeah I can see this being legit, because this happens with artists' ex-labels. After MJ and his brothers went to CBS/ Epic and had hit albums like Destiny/Off the Wall/Thriller Motown put out various albums of J5 & MJ compilations and unreleased songs to ride the wave

Only question now is, which “bootleg double disc” version they going with? The even 15 and 15 one or the one with the album art with the track list on the back?

 

[mbewane]

Surprised to see that that lank is still valid

 

[2ATMsYouSteppinOrWhat]

I wonder what the track list will look like

Looks like its the 98 leak:
