That shyt don’t deserve an anniversary

Anyone know when this was recorded? I've seen people say it's from 98 or 99, and thus was in the mix for being on I Am.

It was part of either the I Am leak or the I Am promo

The way people shyt on it you would think it's like 2 mics . There's at least 8 joints I really like

I love Lost Tapes 2. Of course its not fukking with the OG but as a standalone compilation that shyt is fire.

 

[LOST IN THE SAUCE]

LT2 had some real highs on it. Queensbridge Politics is probably my favorite Nas joint since Life Is Good tbh. Crazy thing is it was only half baked. If he got that joint all the way album ready, I'm sure it would be looked at as another PR Nas classic. As a whole it was pretty disappointing though.
LT1 is pretty much a perfect album, so LT2 sounding more like what it actually was, a compilation of scraps, made it harder to appreciate.

Exactly.

 

[up in here]

Lost Tapes 2 was completely undercooked and its biggest flaw is being a follow up to LT1 which was front to back stellar.

LT2 has a couple of incredible tracks but the rest are flawed, some weak beats, some good but poorly mixed beats, some really horrible hooks.

It's only about 5 really great tracks

Speaking of Life is Good... was listening to Stay today

Nas really needs to explain the second verse. Its weird as hell. I need a breakdown from him.
