READY TO LIVE: The "Ready To Die" 20th Anniversary Thread

[<<TheStandard>>]

If anyone has the legit record or compact disc of Ready To Die orginal 1994 version, keep it. The remastered version has different samples from the 1994 version.

There's multiple remastered versions


there's a 2004 remaster and a later remaster which removed the samples.

cant even imagine this

I know. It's crazy to process & I feel for the generations coming up that have to search to find good music. That time period was truly the illest for hip hop & fans.

Outside of "The Ready To Die OG" mixtape nobody has put together a mix of all the songs left off the album. Would be a great project though. Here's a Zip link I found of that mixtape:

Guys another website uploaded a new link. This was a great mixtape of OG's, a must have for rap fans and a great way to listen to "Ready To Die" 20 years later by hearing some of the original OG's:

Nope, I have this copy. It's actually sitting at my Moms house. She has tons of Source, XXL and even Rap pages magazines in the bathrooms and gym at her house. Every time I visit I laugh cause me and my brothers were such huge hip hop fans there's so much hip hop stuff around the house. Amazing magazine. XXL did a fantastic Job on The Making of "Ready To Die" and "Life After Death".
