This was just a fan compilation right, just like Welcome 2 LA?
thanks much impala
i didnt hear bishop on the track "put your glasses up" at all.i think thats just a guerilla black song on the mixtape.
it was an official mixtape from 03/04 i think. wasn't this the mixtape that caught Dre's attention?

Thats the one Dre heard, and it took up until mid to late 05 for him to actually get signed. Then Welcome 2 L.A. & On My Way To Own Tha Biz came out. I'm pretty sure both are just fan made compilations of the Bishop tracks floating around at the time. Most people knew what Welcome 2 L.A. was, but On My Way To Own Tha Biz went by with not much attention. The only track from either of those that I don't have and never heard is "Throw Ya Hood Up", which is probably actually "Throw Ya Hands Up" from Who I Gotta Kill To Get A Record Deal. Anyways, from what I understand, the fisrt actually Bishop Lamont tape dropped after being signed (and only second one ever) was Nigger Noize in early 07.
