Napoleon's album "Have Mercy" which was supposed to be released in 2005 but was shelved and never released. It was entirely produced by the late great Johnny J and finally it (part 1) will be released on 31th of December 2021 tomorrow. Honestly i'm not a fan of Napoleon as a rapper but if you see my profile photo u may understand why i am hyped about this. Here's the cover and tracklist below. RIP Johnny J.

Nice. Will check for sure.

Fucc yeah.. this is great news for Napolean fans, Outlawz fans, Pac fans, Johnny J fans...
...This album is really not that far from prime era, Napolean was still really young at the time and Johnny J was around, I remember reading about this release way way back in the day in Source magazine features or XXL, really happy its finally gonna get proper release I hope.
Will it be on ITunes?

This posted tracks are fire. I hope we get it on streaming platforms.

Thanks for the info. Napoleon was always my favorite Outlaw & Johnny J's productions was always a perfect fit for 2Pace & the Outlawz.
Fast Life & Never Forget were always great tracks, can't wait to get the album ;D

Sounds really great but it’s missing one song I was looking for maybe they couldn’t get the sample cleared but it’s “Patronize” like “turn down the lights, just hold me close, don’t patronize”

i thought i was posting the full album

This is only part 1 of the album. part 2 will be released too later.
i liked "shine" most. good beat, big syke and classic johnny j kicks... pure early outlawz!
"approach you" has a familar sample from sabac's "fght until the end"... but with johnny j guitars and bass with a impressive chorus.
"sa raw" definately another pure early outlawz vibe and has late 90s gangsta rap.
"never forget" makes me feel goosbumps when i hear val young and johnny j on the chorus.

Looks like they released 128Kbps MP3's dressed up as CD quality :grumpy:
-
Just started bumping it and started with Shine. Great track
-
Who is on the last verse of "Oh No!", the first track?
-
Finally!!!
I've been waiting almost 20 years for this album and they finally put it out, can't believe it :o
Unfortunatly some of the best songs are missing (Scripturez Into, Patronize, Waiting, Message 2 U)
Hope they come out on the second part

WTF!!! "True Outlawz" is featuring Bad Lucc!!!
Apparently he was called "Shane" back then.
Is it really true? Was he even around in 2004?

Nice find, when I saw the video back in the days I didn't know who he was

Yep. I analyzed the album sourced from Tidal. Lazy release from their camp unless the masters were lost.

same guy u can see in the background on knockin boots video of Candyman.
u can remember the song from these lines:
"Ooh boy I love you so
Never ever ever gonna let you go"
