The Dust King
A Childrens Story
im the one who uploaded the song to the internet
backround info;
got the song from a white label vinyl pressed in 2000 along with a cd single for never gonna give it up feat product gnb produced by al west and trackmasters
the only person i know who has a copy of this vinyl is dj rhude; the version on his lost tapes mixtape IS the same version i uploaded originally.
@spliz @RAW_SPK the song is from the scrapped album Death Of Escobar which was a precursor to nastradamus and stillmatic
the song is produced by trackmasters and features a prominent sample of slick rick from the track the moment i feared
the original sample and title of that song reflect the content and feeling of the fear of not being accepted and what fans and media percieved as the sophomore jinx.
the song is one of my favorites of all time which is why i decided to share it despite nas not cosigning his music being shared/leaked on the internet at the time
as a futurist im happy to say i saw the bigger picture/greater vision
it warms my heart to see people consider that top 5 nas or one of his best songs
this thread is an appreciation thread for myself and the love we have for the culture

yeah you're right i just looked. Damn they never put that on an album that is insane.
Although Nas has moved on from his Sony/Columbia Lost Tapes, and I have reluctantly done the same, I’m convinced he still has one/possibly two very solid 12 track Lost Tapes compilation albums there.
I hope that whoever the custodian of his vaults at Sony, Def Jam and even Mass Appeal are, they truly understand what his work (even the incomplete work) truly means to us.

Appreciate the update Big Mark, was wondering on the status of this. Definitely waiting on that myself. Was afraid Rhude might have gotten spooked after that “Real N@@@as” (Pac diss) leaked earlier this year and there was a bunch of ruckus online about it.
