Was the Murda Muzik OG really that good?

The OG isn't as good as the Infamous or HOE but a lot of good songs were replaced. For all of these songs to be removed from the final release is INSANE but back then if your songs leaked more than a month before your album release the label will make you record new music to replace the leaked songs. If you visited any of NYC's hood shopping hubs during this time the bootlegs were widespread. If you didn't have it, the mixtape you were listening to had a few of these songs. A couple songs just ended up getting put on soundtracks and other projects like "Nobody Likes Me", "Feel My Gat Blow" & "Pile Raps". The songs below ended up staying mixtape exclusives

wasn't feeling like half of the production

Alchemist had the best joints on the album

P seem like he did the best he could with what they was working wit

Felt like Havoc was really slacking on this one

Funny enough on Infamy Havoc was back in full force and P was slacking

Some say it was on the level of The Infamous, for those who have heard it, is that true?

I never knew there was another version. To me the official release is a top tier album.

Hopefully whatever YouTube links get put here shows this first version you're mentioning.

I want to hear what official tracks were missed.

Someone dropped an official tracklist. Hope that one's right.

Man, Mobb Deep put so much work in over those years!!!

So much quality output!!!
