wats this? is ther a traklisting for it? why didnt this come out? can sum1 up the bootleg please?

Not a lot classic, but a great album ;) "What We Do" is a summer time classic, "The Way I Am" is another classic banger.
Here's the remix of "The Way I Am" with Snoop, WC & E-40 for those still haven't heard it yet.

I'll hook up the original version without Snoop too, if somebody wants it.

Knoc's Landin' was his 1st album that never came out. it didn't come out cause a bootleg for it leaked months in advance (although the tracklisting for the bootleg was way off) the label shelved the album. the tracklisting is as follows (for what was to be the REAL album, not the bullshit bootleg):
01 intro 0:31
02 Knocs Landin 1:28
03 knoc ft dr dre missy elliott 4:11
04 I Like ft yero 5:11
05 Watch Out ft hittman 2:52
06 str8 westcoast 2:50
07 lets all roll ft jayo felony and butch cassidy 4:10
08 Your Only Son 2:36
09 Cash sniffin noses ft too short and slip capone 4:22
10 born 2 hustle ft s dog 3:29
11 l.a. nite n day 4:15
12 have fun 5:01
13 i used 2 luv her 3:53
14 the reverend knoc ft warren g 4:05

I dunno who prod. those, but I would guess BattleCat did both.
Your Only Son - http://www.zshare.net/audio/53220913dec77aff/
What Is Life - http://www.zshare.net/audio/5322093222d020a1/
My Knoc-turn'al collection is ridiculous; i have everything.
I'll do my best to find out who produced them.
-
The album is alright... far from Knoc's best work and not close to classic status.
-
I've always been a fan of "The Way I Am". A lot of the tracks were outdated by the time it came out, but top to bottom it's got a stellar lineup of producers and guest spots. Knoc came correct.
-
Okay. I thought the album was a major dissapointment. A real shit cake in a matter of fact. I was expecting to hear quality songs like Bad Intentions but most of the songs were some average Mickey Mouse shit I had heard already before. Production consisted of a bunch of failed 2001/Restless leftovers nicked from Aftermath Studio's wastes. The biggest names like Dre and Quik really failed on this one. "I Like" produced by Dre, correct? Not only Knoc sucked ass on this but this is one of Dre's worst beats ever. "Love Slave" isn't that bad but it sounds unfinished. I always wondered why Quik's beats begun to suck ass in early Y2k, probably all the unprotected sex and constant weed smoking in '90s finally took its toll. Knoc did his best but the whack beats really ruined this album. In middle of all the shit there were a few good songs actually. What We Do with Nate, Zibit and Warren. Watch Out with Hitman and The Way I Am which had a nice beat. There should be a charity for raising awareness of shitty hip-hop albums like this. If I had known, I would have not wasted my money.

only 3 tracks that appeared on the album had leaked from his to-be-first-album. Lotta ppl complained about "watch out" appearing but i love that track 8)
GYS: Wow. I really don't think any beats minus "Watch Out" were taken from failed 2001 sessions, and any at all from Restless. How the hell do you not like "Love Slave?" :o that song was SICK. I thought production was pretty stellar; Warren G's beat is another example.

Let's All Roll is 1 of the greatest west coast songs released in the last 10 years 8)

add me to the appreciation thread
I don't think its classic but I like the album 8)

On a side note, it should be noted that Knoc-Turn'al was a part of some classic west coast records that were coming out around 2001-2002. He wrote Dr. Dre's material on "Put It On Me", "Your Wife", he co-wrote "The Wash" and "Bad Intentions"...it's a shame dude never blew up at a higher level.
That "Love Slave" joint is crazy, I'm with Lunatic on that. It's got a vintage Quik sound, I think you can even hear him say something at the beginning, like the intro.

He also helped write other records on "2001" I believe. He also wrote 2 songs for Warren G - "Lookin' at You" and "Keepin' it Strong"
Hopefully he can still blow up, he's a nice dude and is still making great music.
-
I'm not sure about Lookin At You, he's not listed in the credits but I'm sure he touched that record too. I remember reading somewhere that he wrote Dre's verse on Xzibit's "Symphony In X Major" but he didn't get credited for that. Gotta check the publishing.

I read somewhere he helped write that record for warren G. Ha, I was just about to say what u did about that Xzibit record; he was angry at first about not getting credit for that.

Nothing is perfect, there is always one "less good track". Even in Illmatic I didn't like one track.

i'm like... give me the damn album... if it's wack, i can live with it (i've lived long enough without new knoc music to know what a life without good new knoc music is like and it's totally awesome :o)... if it's good, i'll spend my money on it.
i'd like to see knoc live sometime.

ya, i really want the album as well. i see what your saying, we've lived long enough without new knoc music anyway..this year he popped up more than usual in recent years lol..he did the 2 DJ AK joints..the one-2 joint..crooked i..dibiase..couple mathmadix joints i leaked as well..
i can't wait to hear it and doubt it'll suck; he said he was working with dre and quik again; scott storch as well..j-beam and deztined who are 2 dope ass producers.
he just did a show in Chile not 2 long ago.
-
he just did a show in Chile not 2 long ago.
if he has to go all the way down to Chile to perform and can't get venues booked in cali or az, i don't see a bright future for knoc in hip hop anymore :D

he's just connected like that overseas..france, chile, etc..i'm sure he can land shows in cali and az as well..mathmadix do in az all the time, easily..if he wanted 2, he'd get them there in az..
