Title: What's left for WIDEawake to do, after Crooked I drops?
Post by: jabella on April 17, 2010, 11:20:31 AM
All we want now is One Nation or the 2pac album.

WIDEawake is now finished. They can't keep releasing Snoop CDs, that's all that will make money now.

 I think after Crooked I drops (or doesn't drop), they should release the "Please Stop Suing Us Compilation" featuring all of the former third-tier Death Row recording artists you've never heard of (because all of the 1st and 2nd stringers are overly litigious).

HAHAHAHA, good shit. I hope they put out some more unreleased Deathrow stuff. That era was GOLDEN. I'll take all I can get. More Pac, Snoop, Dre, Quik, and the rest of the Deathrow family!!!!!

They need to release the stuff keeping with the original track listings and album names. I doubt the Crooked I will get released. If it does then I doubt their will be stuff that we haven't heard before. I think they will put out another Snoop release seeing that Lost Sessions was vol 1.

Nah, he doesn't. Tray Deee confirmed that he didn't record so many songs in the Death Row era.

Would love that, the snippets of the album sound great. Sneed don't want it to get out though.

If all the 2Pac shit leaked, we could finally put the man to rest and possibly no more 2Pac threads would be made again. I think I would enjoy that day.

I'm thinking a "Re-Lit" edition of Doggystyle, Lost Sessions Vol. 2 and a few compilations. They might also release that so-called DR Demo-Tape by Nipsey as a EP if he actually drops his album this year, lol.

I wish they'd release more K-Solo, Eastwood and Petey Pablo tracks though.

Yeah Petey Pablo was at his best during his time on DR. Looking back at it now almost all of his leaked DR tracks are right up there with the best of post 96 era DR music IMO. Not so much because of his lyrical skills ofcourse but he still had a decent flow backed with some real quality productions on most songs.
Besides I seriously think he stood the best chance of bringing DR back, he already had a buzz going at that time plus alot of the DR stuff he did might have done well on the charts.

I think Tray Deee definitely has enough material for an album.  Artists are always saying they don't have anything over there...I remember lil c-style saying he only maybe had 1 unreleased song over there and that is BS.

21. 21. Did you ever complete an album for Death Row?

No. All work I ever did On Death Row was for Snoop’s or the Dogg Pound;s albums, or Murder Was The Case or Gang Related sountracks. Myself, South Sentrelle, Techniec, Lil C-Style and Bad Azz recorded the unreleased “LBC Crew” album at Can Am, A Death Row leased studio, but when Suge Knight refused to allow Snoop to shop distribution for Doggystyle Records and left us with the ultimatum of going through Death Row, South Sentrelle and Lil C-Style decided that they no longer wanted to be a part of the group, so the album was scrapped.

Well it may not be a lie...he may have simply forgotten.  Or he just doesn't want to remember DR anymore and is bitter about it.  What was "I Beez the Hardest" recorded for?  And I'm not saying that he has a ton of solo songs, but I bet there are at least a dozen unreleased DR songs that have Tray Deee on them.

Yeah, i mean he probably has some unreleased songs and you could release them as a compilation but i don't think we ever was recordin for his own album at Death Row. "I Beez Tha Hardest" was for his solo album that was supposed to come out on Epic Records. I think it was Epic Records, i'm not 100% sure about it though. You know how much i would love to hear an solo from him,e specially with Death Row production but i don't think he recorded that much material while he was on Death Row.

YA IT WAS FOR EPIC. TRAY DEE HAS A SOLO ALBUM WITH THEM. ALSO THE LBC CREW ALBUM WAS MASTERED AND READY TO BE RELEASED.

After they drop the "Please Don't Sue Us" Compilation, they should drop their second Crooked I LP, "The Missing Non-FTP Files."  Featuring artwork of a another girl's buttcrack on the front cover. OR a publicity still of Crooked I that was commisioned by Dynasty Records.

 Yeah.  It was Pac with the Outlawz and Bootcamp Click and some other featured artsits like Spice One and Kokane, etc.  It was supposed to come out through Death Row and Duck Down Records.  But at this point, I don't think Wideawake could release it because they only have the rights to 13 Death Row-era tracks.  And those 13 tracks were from a pre-selected list.  I doubt there were any "One Nation" tracks on the list.  I think the only hope for it to come out is if Amaru releases it, but at this point, I'd say the chances of that are slim to none.

After they drop the "Please Don't Sue Us" Compilation, they should drop their second Crooked I LP, "The Missing Non-FTP Files."  Featuring artwork of a another girl's buttcrack on the front cover. OR a publicity still of Crooked I that was commisioned by Dynasty Records.

I think it would make the most sense if the next cover was this...

BTW: Hood Star is now available for pre-order on Amazon, guess it is coming.

All we want now is One Nation or the 2pac album.

WIDEawake is now finished. They can't keep releasing Snoop CDs, that's all that will make money now.
One Nation was the Outlaw/BCC release right?

 Yeah.  It was Pac with the Outlawz and Bootcamp Click and some other featured artsits like Spice One and Kokane, etc.  It was supposed to come out through Death Row and Duck Down Records.  But at this point, I don't think Wideawake could release it because they only have the rights to 13 Death Row-era tracks.  And those 13 tracks were from a pre-selected list.  I doubt there were any "One Nation" tracks on the list.  I think the only hope for it to come out is if Amaru releases it, but at this point, I'd say the chances of that are slim to none.
There was atleast a one nation bootleg out there, saw it on another forum a while back.
But if it was going to be released on both DR & DD, shouldn't DUck Down have the rights to atleast a few tracks of it?

 Yeah.  There have been a few bootlegs over the years.  But since only a few people know what all tracks were intended for the album, every bootleg that's been released has included tracks that weren't actual "One Nation" tracks.  The bootlegs usually end up with a few tracks on them that were actually from "One Nation," but always end up including non-"One Nation" tracks as well.
  I think you're right about Duck Down having some of the right to "One Nation" too.  One rumor I heard was that the original intention was for "One Nation" to be two discs, with one disc coming out on Death Row and one coming out on Duck Down.  Not sure if that is accurate or not.  I think for the purposes of releasing it today, Amaru would still have the ultimate say in whether or not it came out, but I think Duck Down would retain some rights to it.  Someone smarter than me about legal shit would have to elaborate, but I think that's how it would work.

Good find.  In looking for the digital version on amazon, I also noticed that Royce is dropping a deluxe version of "Street Hop" on May 18th.  Did anyone else know anything about this?  I know it doesn't have a whole lot to do with Crooked I, but I happened across it in the digital downloads when I noticed that it now lists the track "Gun Harmonizing" as "coming May 18th. lol  There appears to be three extra tracks on this version, although I don't know why anyone would buy the whole thing all over again for 3 songs.
 Oh, and strangely enough, there's no digital listing for "Hood Star" yet.

Yeah, I knew about Street Hop, Royce mentioned this in an interview recently. Not exactly sure why they are dropping it again, but perhaps they think they can tie it in around the release of Bar Exam 3 for a few more sales.

When we throw harsh insults towards WIDEawake and their incompetent ass staff, we only hurt ourselves. Let's take a second to listen to listen to 2Pac and remember, we will always get crappier sound quality than Youtube rips - thanks to a guy named Omar and another guy named John. Let's not forget about Robert Thompson and John Payne as well.

 It's difficult to say for sure.  We can kind of guage what might be on there by the names of the featured artists on the one-sheet.  But the problem with trying to figure out how many already-leaked songs will be on the album, is that so many of those artists are featured on multiple songs.  For example, I believe they list Kurupt and Eastwood as being featured on the album.  Well, that could mean that "Boss Me Up," "Frontline," "La La," "House Party, "Suge's Westcoast," and "Lil Youngstaz" are on there, or it could just mean that "Suge's West Coast is the only one on there. In other words, we know that Kurupt and Eastwood are featured on the album, but we don't know if they're featured separately on a bunch of different tracks or together on a single track.  Same way with Ganxsta Rid. They could just be referring to his appearance on "Me and My Dogg," or they could be planning on putting that "Take the Title" song on there.  Until they drop the track list, there's just no way of knowing. I think I had it figured that it could be as many as all 15 tracks that have already leaked, or as few as just 5.

I remember we were trying to figure out what Danny Boy song they could be referring to and after looking through unreleased track names, they could be referring to a song called "Shy" which he is featured on. Whether or not that's the correct name of course is debatable.

If my calculations are correct there is at least another album worth of post Untouchable material they can choose from, let's hope that they decide to give us some truly unheard stuff. It would be amazing to get some of the last tracks recorded for the real SHTTBG so we'd have a chance to know what the final product could have sounded like.

 Couldn't agree more, there.  It would be great to get to hear any of that stuff.  Would love to finally get full versions of "Crook Show," "Bang on 'Em," or "Raw Dawgs," or any other "Untouchable" tracks for that matter.  But yeah, the other unleaked "Say Hi to the Bad Guy" stuff would be great to hear too.

Hook is the same though. The snippet of the original "Bang On Em" is one of the first Crooked I songs i heard, always wanted the full version.

 Yeah, Hook is basically the same except no electric guitar, and I'm guessing the OG is just Crooked I solo.

Yeah, but to be honest, it sounds like an alternate recording.
