Title: Was 2nd II None's album 'The Shit' intended to be a Death Row Records release?

If so, does WideAwake have it and plan to release it in the future?  Wouldn't mind getting it on CD.

I'd rather get something unleaked then have a crappier mixed version of something I can and already got for free. Seriously they got what about 14 or 15 years worth of material from a a some what large roster of Artist and they can't release exclusively new material??? They said themselves only 10 or 15% was released, Death Row only did 1 Album a year basically and all those recording sessions during the years they didn't drop should add up. Honestly the situation is just real sad. lol Even if some of the artist took there material there is still a lot in there.

If they did it would sell 40-50 copies.

Clint Dogg would sell more.

Death Row (and most artists in any genre) used to recycle lyrics all the time, it's probably around the upper hundreds from everybody is how many songs they really can use.  that's why u hear alotta tha same shit on the records they released, that's bcuz there's probably not that much finished material with all new lyrics.  what they didn't tell u was that when they got it alotta tha material was just freestyles and premixes.  Dre left Death Row bcuz of all of tha bs goin' on in tha studio (niggaz just weren't workin).  I'd say sure they may have a big bank full of shit but how much of it can be used?  Either that or they're just over extending The Re-Introduction 2 Death Row.

Man Death Row had soo much talent. Nevermind the elites like Dre, Snoop, and Pac

They had Tha Dogg Pound, Nate Dogg, DJ Quik, 2nd II None, Lady of Rage, a lot of the Damu Ridas

Suge had the whole West Coast with him.

He did quality control which is why no album from an artist came out of Death Row after 1997, minus Against The Grain which Suge and Death Row didn't approve of.

Maybe not in the studio but how about this...name me 1...just 1 CEO that has released as many Hip Hop classics on their label. The only other person who had a chance was Eazy if he could've kept Dre and Cube but no bueno there.

Yeah, I don't think it was strictly coincidence that all those classic albums came out when suge was running the label.  He obviously had a hand in things.

if it's 15% That means 75% is left, and in that 75% is Full Albums, Left over Albums cuts, Unreleased material, and Alternates. Honestly I wouldn't be amazed if 10 or 5% is Full Albums, and the rest is just random tracks, either in the Condition you stated or just random.


The Freestyles could easily be released either as Mixtapes or as Downloads to build hype, get the fans some work. Honestly only a few of the Rap Acts have my interest, I want more RnB tracks like Jewell or Michel'le or even Danny Boy. I mean lol I wouldn't be amazed if 15% isn't purely Tupac Material that was taken, I know they only have a small amount of tracks remaining since Amaru buttfucked them. For all we know, half of the good stuff that was filling the vault is already leaked, and the remaining stuff is just purely crap, or the stuff u said with only a few real cuts.

if Wideawake wants material they gotta hit up rapidshare.

Pretty sure they don't have the 2nd II None masters. At least not close to an album's worth, so that's not gonna happen. The stuff that leaked already is in pretty damn good quality anyway so I don't really care. In fact, I'd say it's better quality than the majority of stuff WideAwake has put out so far.
