I remember Dr. Dre talking about it after Ice Cube left on Arsineo (spelling?) Hall.

I remember Dr. Dre talking about it after Ice Cube left on Arsineo (spelling?) Hall. Honestly, I'm not sure if that was ever a title being considered for his second album. It's possible. Chad Vader might know. The only unused album title that I'm familiar with for Eazy was "Temporary Insanity." That would have been his second album. And it was advertised that way on the "51/50" maxi-single. (Some record stores back in the day even had a listing for it in their computers, although of course, it was never released) Then after Rhythm D started producing for Eazy, they put out "It's On (187 um Killa)" and the "Temporary Insanity" project became "Str8 off tha Streetz of Muthaphukkin' Compton." I have no proof, but in my opinion, some of the tracks they recorded for "Temporary Insanity" didn't make it on to "Str8 off tha Streetz..." though. And I'm sure there were tracks recorded for "Str8 off tha Streetz..." that were done after they had already abandoned the "Temporary Insanity" idea, as well. I have a feeling some of the tracks that were remixed and released on "Impact of a Legend" might have originally been intended for "Temporary Insanity." "Black Nigga Killa" and "24 Hours to Live" too, probably.

I heard that Eazy collabed with Brotha Lynch on a track. Can anybody confirm?

Probably possible if they started recording for this album before Dre left for Death Row. I know that "51/50" was released in '92. I'm not sure when they started recording tracks for it though. You'd think if they had started recording for it in '91 or earlier, that Dr. Dre production could be a possibility.

But I'm not sure that that one has ever been officially confirmed. If anyone knows if that has ever been addressed in any interviews, let us know. Tomica Wright did confirm in an interview conducted by "Tha Shack" website a few years ago that the original version of "Sleepwalkers" with Bone had a longer Eazy verse which was erased during a recording session. Tha Shack: There were rumors that the SleepWalkers track on Bone?s Collection vol. 2 originally had a longer Eazy verse dissing Dre and Snoop. Will we ever get to hear the original?Tomica Wright: The original version of the song did include Eazy?s vocals, which were erased in a session with Bone. Not sure if the verse dissed Dre or Snoop. I can't believe they could actually let something like that happen. It's a shame. She also mentioned in that interview that the master recordings of at least 8 unreleased Eazy-E tracks "disappeared" from Ruthless Records shortly after Eazy passed.
