Title: Dope Albums that got shelved and leaked
Post by: samutahjazz on April 04, 2011, 02:50:50 PM
There has been a ton of them  and i want to know more about them. i know of a few but there has to be a hundred more. i'm talkin about full cd's that were completed/ near completed that for one reason or another never came out. and i want reasons and explinations as to why they never came out and if there was any bootleg, promo or digital release as well as any other meaningful info ....
for starters

King tee- thy kingdom come. We all know dre shelved this, but how come it came out years later with a turkey on the cover??

Battlecat- Gumbo Roots.  I was only recently turned on to this album, and i gotta say i was missing out, there seemed to be a single ft. rass kass that officially came out and a promo copy, but why was this shelved? any other info on it??

Above the Law- Sex money and music.  Was this supposed to come out on death row? how come it didnt? i know it only got a digital release years later, right?

The Eastsidaz- Gang bang music. Was this really official? i dont know much about this but some claim that it was supposed to be the third release by the group. anyone know for sure??

Kokane- Dr jekyl & Mr. Kane.  Shelved doggystyle release. sounds dope enough to me, i would have bought it. which version is the best for download, someone said there are three versions? can somebody beak down the differences in the versions for me??
also whats the deal with the other one mentioned in that kokane thread called "Some say" anyone got a link and info on that one?

and we all know that Nate dogg self titled album has gotten a lot of attention, whats up with that one? anyone know for sure why it was shelved?

Fixxers midnight life- i have heard rumors that a hardcopy exists, any truth to this ??? is it a bootleg or promo? supposedly quiks myspace got hacked and sombody was selling the music, but was it hardcopies???


i know there is more please add on i would like to know more about these and other shelved releases and i know others would too. please share whatever info and links u got , thanks.

Don't forget HRSMN's man Ras Kass! Screwed up not once but twice! "Van Gogh" & "Goldyn Chyld"...

& ALL them Doggy Style artits who were having their albums coming (unfortunately), this includes Warzone, E-White & RBX, Latoya Williams, Soopafly, We'll see what happens with Tha Hustle Boyz next...

Aftermath isn't the only label signing artists & doing (almost) nothing with them!

Maybe only one half leaked with Doggy Style though, the rest is still un-heard yet.

& DPG Records has a few too, they advertised a lot of shit (since as early as "RAW" & "Dillinger & Young Gotti") that never materialized, not the least of em being Tha Twinz!

& Let's not forget Kurupt's Anterazh/ Kustapo/ Rose of Sharon, they did nothing since "Tha Originals", YA due almost as long as "Detox" (no joke), YA solo albums or collabos with Kurupt...

Insert adverts for:
Kurupt & Draws Present...
Kurupt & Young Roscoe Present...
Kurupt & CJ Genavese Present...
Kurupt & Gail Gotti Present...
Kurupt & Big Tri Present...
Kurupt & KetaRoc Present...

A couple of tracks leaked from Tha Twinz/ DPG Records album or EP, cover was all done, cd ready to press but I think Toon at the time said they cancelled at the last minute on some legal disagreement. I bet Daz still has it & could leak it if he decided. Or Tha Twinz.

I think the album was supposed to be called "Gang Bang Muzic" at one point though. I remember reading an article about it and a little interview with Tray Deee and Goldie Loc about the album on XXL or The Source magazine.

Fortunately it's coming this Summer! Live @ "Cage vs Cons" too!

what is coming exactly?

HRSMN debut! & HRSMN live!

"Cage vs Cons" MMA & West Fest @ LA Sports Arena, Los Angeles, CA, 05-21-2011

Cage vs Cons is a professional mixed martial arts (MMA) promotion company that hosts fan-pleasing events pitting nothing-to-lose ex-convicts against hard-hitting police officers, prison guards, firefighters, teachers, Marines & other members of the military & law enforcement.

The unique concept generates instant rivalries, mouth-dropping storylines & identifiable heroes & villains for the fans to root for or against- all combining to create fights that overflow with a savage energy unmatched in the MMA world.

Unlike more corporate MMA companies, Cage vs Cons is steeped in street credibility. Its co-founder, Michael Lynch, is an ex-con who spent, five years in California Youth Authority & six years in prison before reinventing himself as the entrepreneurial force behind Felony Fights & Cage vs Cons. With his prison connections, Lynch is able to attract the best fighters once they are released from custody.

The MMA main event opposes "Officer" Ismael Gonzalez (9-8-2) vs "Notorious" Rick Slaton (10-2-1).

& There's more to a Cage vs Cons event than pro MMA fights. A world-class hip-hop music festival kicks off the entertainment, featuring such cutting-edge artists as Too Short, Tha Dogg Pound, E-40, Psycho Realm, Killah Priest, Shabazz the Disciple, Kool Keith, Tragedy Khadafi, Buc Fifty, Zodiak, 40 Glocc, Agallah, Ras Kass, Canibus & Big Twins from Mobb Deep & hosted by Tommy "Tiny" Lister "Zeus" aka Deebo & Danny Trejo aka Machete.

Cage vs Cons events, which are sanctioned by the state, can be seen in person, on pay-per-view, on demand, mobile devices & live on the Web. The fights are also available on DVD.

2nd II None - The Shit. 

Apparently this was meant to be released through Death Row Records although I'm not 100% on that considering they weren't signed to the label.  Either way this has some of the best Quik production on it and the whole album is damn near a G-funk classic.  It leaked a few years ago in CDQ with minimal tagging, so should be easy to find. 

The story goes that when 2Pac signed to Death Row he heard the beat to 'Let's Get Higher' and took it for himself to use for his own song, 'Late Night'.

Warren G came on here talkin about it when the album first dropped.. the fans were wonderin how a 213 album could drop with no Warren G productions, so he said he'd drop one all re-mixed with his beats. this came from that:
