Thanks for posting this. 

'Only Move For The Money' confuses me.  Who's track is it and for what album was it intended for?  So Bad Azz was actually on the track then and wasn't just added after 2Pac died or what?  At the end of 2Pac's first verse it cuts off just as the chorus comes in as if the verse was going to carry on.  And I heard that his verse from 'Don't Stop' is also part of the same song in its finished form, but then we hear that Snoop Dogg recorded a verse for it.  Hmmm...

Maybe someone can add Snoop Dogg's verse so we can hear what it may sound like.

Bad azz told me that the version we have now "everything is original", except the daz verses which have snoop instead.

Its hard to say for what album it was recorded. It was a 2pac track, but 2pac recorded alot random songs without any purpose for albums or projects.

re using a lot of your unreleased lyrics don't keep you sharp as an emcee though. when you run out of unreleased rhymes then what ?

True but there's a difference between just using it at times and using it alot. It also depends on you as an MC. If you're a strong writer with a heavy vocab or creativity then you can do it. Nas' verse on "Verbal Intercourse" was an older verse and Nas' has done that alot, but we all know he's one of the greatest lyricist and one of the most creative MC's ever. It's a common thing and not just in hip-hop. I understand your point though.
