Nas - I Am... (Original Version, 29 Tracks)

[julesocean]

Sony has no contribution to this other than a co-sign. Sorry to say, but songs like Day dreamin, Sometimes, and Hardest thing are going to be the exact same quality as the ones from the OG 13 track leak..

its Sony releasing it LOL

its they label

Are Fetus and Project Windows the original versions? And the unreleased tracks properly mastered?
Doubt it will go on streaming so it doesn't matter that much I guess, but still.

Yup. They're the originals.

I get the point this was intended to be what I Am was originally going to be released as but I’d be hot as fish grease to cop this and find out there’s no NYSOM2, no Hate Me Now, no Nas Is Like, no Undying Love

Thank God for the bootleggers

Not really, this is just the bootleg version that leaked originally. I don't think it was even marketed as the original double album, that's what sites like hiphopdx wrongfully reported.

No it's not it's actually got a few flaws. 3 or 4 tracks are absolute trash, and this is as an AZ stan.

wrong thread but what tracks are "garbage" on dod

Nothing original or official about this. Nas hadn’t even spoke on this. There was never a scrapped OG double disc track list To begin with people just heard and read shyt and ran with.

It is the same, the debate was whether these will be the original 13 track leaks in quality, or new completely mixed versions. Stay in the dark.

It's an official Sony release tho...

It's an official Sony release tho...

Like I said, it's just a cosign to use tracks already released on albums, and the 13 track leak.

If you thought Sony would spend time to go work on songs that weren't completely finished for a Record store day Vinyl only gimmick event, you off a perc

 

[mobbinfms]

shyts seems like a money grab

Nah. This is historical. This is the bootleg that I had that got so much burn in late 98/early 99. I can’t believe this is getting an official release. Wish they would press up the OG reviewer copy of Murda Muzik.

Street's Disciple receives too much slander. Nas was going absolutely crazy on a lot of them records...a lot of them records are excellent.

Title track is FIRE
Nazareth Savage is FIRE
Sekou Story
American Way is fire besides Kelis lol
Theif's Theme
War
These are Our Heroes
Reason is NUTS, listen to the writing, smh.
Suicide Bounce
Remember the Times
UBR
Disciple

I'm probably forgetting a couple. All that shyt is fire, idk what yall are talking about lol. There is def trash on there...multiple joints (some like 3 in a row, lol, smh) but an album with so much fire can't be a wack album, nah.

Way better than Nastradamus imo

“Burners in bubble coats,
fukk a sermon from the neighborhood pope /
He sexin hoes, old fart
He bustin worms when he stroke /
Multicolored Pelle Pelle’s
Young stretch mark bellies /
Babies born in the cycle,
Future disciples..”

I must be the only person that loves No One Else In The Room.



Shiit is that grown folk lounge banger.

1. WRONG it contains 3 tracks not on any albums

2. its an original leak, a mastered 1999 copy

3. sony doesnt have to work on completed songs in they vault, they jus release them

Definitely a vibe, I woulda loved to hear Nas and Max on a more laidback type beat tho.

Sony owns those songs though, so this is nothing we haven't seen before...not even with Nas.
