saw a random @Howard The Duck reference
I think those Cam joints I asked you for might have been on the advance of purple haze I’m not sure though maybe they were just cut for samples - can see why the sports centre sample joint got dropped from the album, that probably would have never cleared, good looking out anyways, speaking of the advance would you happen to have that? Just wanting to know if it’s vastly different to the retail is all and if there’s any other tracks on that other than what you upped already, would imagine it might not be too different from what dropped
Didn’t know there was another Version of Royalty either, not heard that one, it’s saying it needs a decryption for that one
Not listened in a while (think they removed it from streaming recently as it wasn’t in Spotify last I checked) but I remember OB4CL2 being quite solid for a sequel album & an album that had multiple delays
I remember there was quite a few bonus songs in diff releases, one of the stand outs I remember being called Rockstars w GZA & I forgot who else was on that I think maybe INS
I know the songs I asked for I think I seen some of some of em on that Claaaa7 from the Wu Corp forums blog that he had, he had put together a version of the album w joints left off for whatever reason, was a pretty solid comp, I had that but lost it, dude had some dope comps in general for Ghostface & other Rappers, the blogs still around but long dead tho so any links are long gone
*fixed the decryption error for that Royalty Track
Here is a link for the normal Cam'ron - Purple Haze (Advance)

As many know, this NEVER was an actual "Advance" sent out to promote the release.
It is a great Bootleg though. A lot of the tracks on this were never meant for Purple Haze. (other people's songs, mixtape tracks, etc.) The sound quality on this is not the best. I took time to gather tracks from other sources & cleaned up audio where I could. All the tracks on the Advance were 192 so...I can't create lossless audio from these but I can make the tracks that were not available in better Q elsewhere sound better/cleaner. I've never uploaded this before. Cam'ron - Purple Haze (Advance) (Upgrade):

As far as differences between the Retail vs. Advance...
Advance Tracklist
01 - Lord You Know ft. Jaheim (Produced by DJ Nasty)
Was supposed to be the lead single. A video was shot. Never made the album. I'm guessing due to sample clearances. There are 2 versions of this. The OG has Juelz Santana on it which I posted above. The version on the Advance was released on a 12".
02 - Yeo Man (Produced by Charlemagne)
This song is from Def Jam's '03 Music Inspired By Scarface comp. Various - Music Inspired By Scarface
03 - Bust Ya Gunz ft. Lil' Flip (Produced by ???)
Taken from Kay Slay's '03 - Diplomats Vol. 5 mixtape. On that it's labled as a Freestyle.
04 - I'm Gettin' Money Ni**a (Produced by Skitzo)
This song is actually Get 'Em Girls. There are some subtle differences from this & the album version. Nothing major.
Taken from Kay Slay's '03 - Diplomats Vol. 5 mixtape.
05 - Killa Cam ft. Opera Steve (Produced by Heatmakerz)
Identical to the album's. Taken from Kay Slay's '03 - Diplomats Vol. 5 mixtape.
06 - Jamaican Joint ft. Jim Jones, Juelz Sanatana
Never made the album. A track from Jim Jones - On My Way To Church would include a song titled Jamaican Joint with a different beat & lyrics. Probably the original version for Jim's project.
07 - Diamonds & Pearls (Produced by Skitzo)
Great song but nobody's clearing a Prince sample for this.
Taken from Kay Slay's '03 - Diplomats Vol. 5 mixtape.
08 - Royalty (Crown Me) ft. T.I., Juelz Santana (Produced by Dame Grease)
Never made the album. Pretty sure this was never intended for any album. Sounds more like mixtape material to me.
09 - Halftime Show
Taken from Kay Slay's '03 - Diplomats Vol. 5 mixtape. This is a NO DJ version.
10 - Hey Lady ft. Freekey Zekey (Produced by Pop & Versatile)
Taken from Kay Slay's '03 - Diplomats Vol. 5 mixtape. Same as the album Version.
11 - Shut The F**k Up (Produced by ???)
Never intended for the album. Mixtape material. Taken from Kay Slay's '03 - Diplomats Vol. 5 mixtape.
12 - Drama Gang, Drama King ft. Jim Jones
Taken from Kay Slay's '03 - Diplomats Vol. 5 mixtape. Song would later appear on DJ Kay Slay & Greg Street's '06 retail mixtape The Champions: The North Meets The South with a different beat.
13 - Shake ft. J.R. Writer (Produced by Music Mystro & Self Service)
Same as the version on the album.
14 - Dead Muthaf***as ft. Juelz Santana (Produced by Stay Gettin')
Taken from Kay Slay's '03 - Diplomats Vol. 5 mixtape.
15 - You Got So Much Class ft. Comp

DMX song from the Grand Champ album.

2 versions of the advance/bootleg exist. im not too sure the differences but deep fried frenz's "go wild like a white bytch" on the "just" version is censored differently than the released version & is completely uncensored on the "ftd" version named "cheese".
I think the track names may be unofficial on the "ftd" version, original nfo has them all as untitled.
ill probably comb through each track and A/B them to find the differences and edit them into the post, but not rn.
if theres any other alternate versions of DOOM albums lmk and ill get them and upload them.
idk if anyone ever made this copy widely available so this might be a normal leak idk
DOOM doesn't rap on supervillainz/better than beer/in ya dreams on this version of the album.
Differences:
- SUPERVILLAIN is supervillain intro but different samples & shorter.
- YESSIR! has the "VILLAIN" sample plays over a different Raekwon vocal take where he says "cooling with the players of the team" or maybe "cooling with the player, serpentine"(? idk its hard to hear over the sample) instead of "cooling with the supervillain team" at ~1:13. also has less background talking from Raekwon.
- BATTY BOYZ is the intro to batty boyz but its extended with more samples.
- COSTUME FOOLERY is batty boyz with different vocal samples between "head of my..." and "...BIC", and at the end.
- BETTER THAN BEER is the only kurious' part of supervillainz, but has a different intro & different beat sampling.
- IN YA DREAMS is only mobonix's part of supervillainz, same/similar differences in beat sampling.
- THANK YA is an extended version of thank yah.
Leaked version has 2 tracks that aren't meant to really meant to be on the album (track 14 is a "mistake id" & break of dawn is madlib - infinity), they were just on the stolen CD at the time so that's what leaked.
The retarded hard copy is what was sent to places for reviews and has a watermark that happens a few times per song & is referenced in rhinestone cowboy.
from a 2014/9/11 madlib benji b mix. found the original 192kbps scene rip of the mix to get a better cut of it. not a huge improvement but the spec looks more filled out, so unless someone has the track, or has a better copy of the mix, this is the best version probably.
the mix also previewed black star - so be it, but it was probably just yasiin's white drapes madlib version at that point cause it cuts before talib's part.
cut the same as whats on youtube and online:
Does anyone have the "Crime Partners" movie and soundtrack? That shyt is hard to find, but this is supposedly the movie that paid Supreme legit money that supposedly got Murder Inc in trouble.
props, I thought he said there was a soundtrack because they said he paid Supreme for the movie and the soundtrack on the doc -- must have been another soundtrack, and there are random songs on the movie like with DMX, etc. lol, the songs wasn't even mentioned in the credits

(This flick never had a Soundtrack. Nothing listed in the credits or Discogs. Strange, with all of the various people connected to the movie?)
I appreciate the MF DOOM uploads!
@Howard The Duck

Plz and thnks
"Former hip-hop executive Chaz Williams attempted to adapt Goines’ Black Gangsters into a film. While the film didn’t come to fruition, the movie’s soundtrack sold 150,000 copies.
