LBC Crew - Haven't You Heard [Official Discussion Thread]

[Okka]

DJ Pooh's remix of "Beware Of My Crew" been out for ages. Im almost 100% sure that "Gangsta" has leaked too, but not in CDQ though.

Beware Of My Crew [DJ Pooh Remix] was never released on a full lenght album, only a single. That's why I'm counting it as unreleased. Gangsta by Lil' C-Style and Snoop leaked years ago but is still unreleased.

Nah, it was released on the DPGC Remix album. I'm not sure who put that out but i think it's official though.

If its released on a single, it's not unreleased. It's on the Beware Of My Crew Vinyl.

I don't hear it. The treble is so shrill and the vocal sounds lispy - unlistenable.

Did you ramaster the lossey file or is that from a wav?

[OG Snoopaveli]

are "rap killer", "stay out of LA", "dont test me" and "gangsta gangsta" lbc crew tracks or just low life tracks?

None of those tracks were recorded on Death Row, so no. I don't even think any of those had all three LBC Crew members on 'em.

Yes, they were. Check out that huge interview with Big C-Style that's on youtube. None of those tracks are "LBC Crew" tracks except for "Flossin" though. Actually Kurupt is on the original version of "Rap Killer" and that track will be on Big Style's new compilation.

I wish these guys had more music!!!

They still have these unreleased tracks in the Death Row vault...

yeah Gangsta has leaked.  Its Lil' C-style and snoop dogg.  Chorus goes "He would grow up to be nothin but a gangsta"  It heavily uses a sample, although I can't think of the original sample off the top of my head.  hopefully it comes out in cdq.

classic track! i luv it

[Giesuz]

it uses the same verse by Lil Style that he raps on Out The Moon Original

Could it be that you work for wideawake ?

The vocals sounding like that is a product of 1) lack of proper de-essing during mixing (see my earlier comments) and 2) the format it was recorded on deteriorating (Digital Audio Tape—DAT). 

Other than that if you can’t discern any noticeable difference between those two (the retail and my remaster) then your ears may be seriously damaged… or you probably hold some job at WideAwake  

I wanted to have this done earlier but like I said, I’m working with some new software that sounds so clean and rich, but calibrating it and incorporating into what I usually use has been time consuming.

props efrain is that guy.

the song "gangsta (when u grow up)" was taped off the radio back in 96, thats why its in poor quality sound.
the beat samples "never too much" by luther vandross.

also there's another lbc crew track that is still unreleased, which is:
 
*Heard it through the eastside feat. snoop doggy dogg
