I found this 'original' tracklist (confirmed)
I wonder if all y'all have mone of this bitch-2-find songs/skits :
"Pyschic Pimp Hotline" (re-used on DOC's Deuce)
"Drive By Game"
"Got It Locked" CDQ
"Got It Locked" (Extended Mix)
I'm not a Aftermath fan, but this project caught my attention.
Thanks ;)
-
them people over at Aftermath have way too much time on their hands
-
the album was supposed to be released in 1998, not 1999
-
Anyone got Got it locked ?
-
the second best release from aftermath. unreleased or released.
-
my top 3 aftermath releases (or unrelease):
chronic 2001
thy kingdom
truthfully speaking
honorable mention:
the firm album
-
Here's "Got It Locked" in CDQ ---> http://www.sendspace.com/file/io6oqz

What Did "The Source" Say In Their Review?
-
What Did "The Source" Say In Their Review?
they gave the album 3.5 mics. imo it deserve at least four.
-
"Pyschic Pimp Hotline" was a skit not a song. I had it on the album sampler or one of my old vinyl singles from the album.

"Thy Kingdom Come" was released on Greedy Green Entertainment. I got a copy of the album. It's a shame that "Got It Locked" and "That's Drama" wasn't on it though. Definitely one of the best "unreleased" Aftermath albums.
-
Anyone got "thats drama"?
-
i wanna hear the songs with Dre, anyone got em?

"Pyschic Pimp Hotline" was a skit not a song. I had it on the album sampler or one of my old vinyl singles from the album.
Do you remember if the skit is the same used in "Deuce" ?
-
^ yes same as DEUCE version however one of the homies said there is a version with some type of movie sample.
I got the O.G. of the one with the Pimp Turkey on the cover. It was a Koch release.
Just read that Source review. Who the fuck did they hire for reviews there. God damn Thy Kinkdom Come gets a 11 out of 10 if element of surprise kets a 4 out of 5....

I prefer listen this unreleased project like that.
I mean, the Battlecat/Quik/Ant Banks productions are cool but it's not the Aftermath sound made by Stu Bullard, Stephen Anderson or The Glove...
-
It's definitely a GOOD album but sum of y'all hate the nu skool so much that y'all forget exactly what u did and didn't like back in the day. I think 3 & Half Mics was pretty accurate for this album (especially with that Jive Turkey ass album cover lol). There was so much other great music coming out between 97-99 that King T couldn't keep up with. Again, it's a good album but it ain't no classic just becuz it's an unreleased Aftermath album from the 90's from a popular rapper.

full version with 'movie' intro (from Fear Of A Black Hat)

If you're looking for the best quality versions of the songs, I would see if you can get a 320 rip of his 2004 album called The Ruthless Chronicles. It's mostly songs from Thy Kingdom Come, but there's a few songs he recorded at Ruthless Records which is where he went after he left Aftermath. From what I've heard the songs on Ruthless Chronicles sound the best compared to the other versions out there. Unfortunately it only contains about half of Thy Kingdom Come.

Ok, I already noticed that some songs appeared on this album/compilation. But I didn't know that the quality was better than the 2 versions of "Thy Kingdom Come".
If you have a 320 version, I'd like to hear it, thanks !

I don't. Unfortunately hard copies of that album are hard to come by. Maybe somebody on here picked it up and would be nice enough to upload it. King T said in an interview some years back that he was gonna put Thy Kingdom Come out properly on his own but he must have scrapped that idea.

Check out the spot.

Great album, I downloaded it earlier this year and I've listened to it steadily ever since. Bumps in the headphones nicely as well (Dre probably mixed and mastered all of the tracks).
It kinda reminds me of Game's first album, what with the Dre involvement and the notable guest appearances and all. It definitely should have been released on Aftermath.
'The Chron' is one of Dr. Dre's best beats in my opinion.

Ya I stated that earlier in the thread when I first brought up the Ruthless Chronicles. There's 5 songs from Thy Kingdom Come on there. Wish I had the whole album in that quality. Efrain??? Please? lol

How Did "Kingdom Come" Get Released? Did Tee Let These Labels Release It? or Did They Somehow Get There Hands On It Without Tee/Dre Knowing?

On my version is a track which features Tray Deee and Kool G Rap. The quality is embarrassing. Even more when you have three rappers of that caliber on a cool track together and it simply sounds like shit...
-
are "it's where ya from" and "2 g's from compton" same songs???
-
i am surprised that nobody mentioned the first track
1-Intro feat Ice-t produced by Fredwreck
and
Who sings the chorus in "got it locked"???

yes.

"In 1998, I was hyped, because not only was Xzibit dropping a new album (40 Days & 40 Nights), but sharing the same release date was fellow Alkaholik King T, who would make his AfterMath debut with Thy Kingdome Come. With rumors of Dr. Dre’s The Chronic 2 simmering, and after a disappointing Dr. Dre Presents The Aftermath compilation, not to mention The Firm flop, Thy Kingdom Come was set to be the first official Aftermath release. I was lucky enough to score an advance copy of the album on cassette from a friend at Interscope who made his way into Vegas, and I quickly went home an spent over an hour encoding it to a full-length CD for my enjoyment (I did not give a copy to anyone). I remember listening to this album, and absolutely loving it, thinking to myself, this is going to do it. This album would put Dr. Dre back on the map and show Death Row he could do it without them. A few weeks later, we ran back to back reviews on HipHopSite for Xzibit and King Tee, on the weekend before both albums were set to drop (at least according to The Krib – R.I.P.). And then finally the release date approached – and then – nothing.
As to why Dr. Dre decided to put King T’s album in the vault, never to be heard again, will forever remain a mystery, (ask Hittman, Knoc-Turn’al, Last Emperor, or Eve - maybe they know), because this was one slammin’ piece of work. Some say that a poor Sauce Magazine review doomed this album before it made its way to store shelves, while others speculate that Aftermath’s focus was turned to Eminem with the ensuing national-buzz on his own leaked singles”Just Don’t Give A Fuck”, ”My Name Is” and “Guilty Conscience”. Whatever the case is, bottom line is that King T had an incredible album that got shelved, and nobody knows the real reason why.
But the new mystery is its resurfacing. In the middle of last year, King Tipsy-Off-The-Whisky’s album began appearing at Amazon.Com and CDNow as an import, under a label called Mo Beatz Records / ZYX Music, based in Germany, no less. We soon followed suit, tracking down this mysterious release, and didn’t get quite what we expected. While it had finally found its way out, the packaging on this release is poorly done and the cover-art is horrible, mislabeled as THE Kingdom Come, rather than THY Kingdom Come. Still, we can’t be too mad, because it’s finally out in the streets (of Germany).
This is almost the album that I bumped to death almost five years ago, however, there are some notable changes. First off, it is missing two tracks, the lead single “Got It Locked”, as well as “That’s Drama”, not to mention the skits which bridged the album together (who could forget the “Drive By Game” or “Psychic Pimp Hotline” – obviously D.O.C. couldn’t, check his new album for their re-use). What we get instead of the missing skits and two tracks are a whopping six never-heard-before tracks, which we’re not on my original Interscope advance. Although, it is easy to see why, as these last few aren’t up to par with the rest of the album. The good Doctor did the right thing by not letting the syrupy “Step On By”, “Who’s Who”, or “Big Ballin’” make the original advance. Meanwhile, “6 In The Mornin” is a not an Ice-T cover, but instead King Tee’s take on the Dr. Dre / LL Cool J collabo “Zoom”, here featuring added vocals from Dawn Robinson. The only real gem that could have fit with the rest of this album is truly “Where’s T” sporting excellent Dre production; however the other new track, “Nothing Has Changed” featured the odd match-up of King T, plus Kool G Rap and Tray Dee which is as strange as the beat itself.
But let’s not forget about what made this album great. Despite the fact that it doesn’t play through as it was originally intended, thanks to the missing tracks and skits, there is still plenty of Grade-A material here that never got a chance to go platinum. The beautifully smooth “Stay Down” was a masterwork from King Tee, Dre, and Bud’da, not to mention the cool-ass sounds of back-to-back Dre joints “Da Kron” and “Monay” – this was classic material. Even the corny party jams that were so essential in the Bad Boy ruled 1997 were wonderful, such as the DJ Quik produced “Let’s Make A V” (even if it went over the top when Kid Frost steps in), or the proud Cali anthems such as “Shake The Spot” (feat. Shaquille O’Neal) or “2 G’s From Compton” (feat. MC Ren) could have easily rocked the club, if they were only given the chance. Speaking of which, let’s not forget perhaps the greatest Battlecat track ever, “Squeeze Yo Ballz”, a brilliantly funky sample collage, damn this was good. Under Dre’s supervision, even tracks like “Big Boyz” (feat. Too Short; prod. Ant Banks) and “Tha Game” (prod. Battlecat) seemed incredibly fresh when looking at the whole package. But who would ever know it?
While this version doesn’t play through as flawlessly as my original Interscope advance (rated on the site @@@@ in 1997), at least we can finally say it’s out there and heads now have a chance to hear it (sans the skits and two tracks). As to how this release made out the vaults and into Germany – the only theory we have is that King T, or someone very close to him – sold ZYX the master, as this album also includes the tracks that we’re not used on the finished advance, not to mention full production credits (which even my Interscope tape didn’t have). Whatever the case may be, it’s finally out there, and heads can finally get a chance to hear what it might have sounded like if King T’s Thy Kingdom Come was Aftermath’s first solo project."

^ That's the version I bought back then. And the reason why I was always confused when people claimed that it never got released while I, in fact, bought it from a regular retail store. :D

Great album, I downloaded it earlier this year and I've listened to it steadily ever since. Bumps in the headphones nicely as well (Dre probably mixed and mastered all of the tracks).
It kinda reminds me of Game's first album, what with the Dre involvement and the notable guest appearances and all. It definitely should have been released on Aftermath.
'The Chron' is one of Dr. Dre's best beats in my opinion.
based on the sound quality, i doubt the album was mastered.
Really? The version that I downloaded has perfect sound quality save for '6 In Tha Mornin' which sounds a little quiet. 192kbps but it still sounds CDQ.

A couple of the tracks towards the end aren't up to par quality-wise as the rest of the album

I thought so too until Ruthless Chronicles came out. Download the rip of that that was uploaded in this thread, and then download the 320kbps rip of Thy Kingdom Come that Okka hooked up in the spot. Compare the 5 songs on Ruthless Chronicles that were from Thy Kingdom Come with Okka's rip and you'll hear improvement. They're at the least mastered noticeably louder.
I'm interested in this King T's Greatest Hits to see if the quality is better on those tracks too. How the heck did "Bass" & "Diss You" not make his greatest hits though?!
-
From the "Strait From Compton Greatest Hits" the sound quality is almost the same than the Ruthless Chroniclez

anyone know what made King T snatch the chain from 2pac? :D
-
Theres a press card posted with one tracklist. And someone also posted another official tracklist... So which ones the real one? What is the final tracklist?

I'm pretty sure he didn't snatch his chain. I heard he snatch the red rag off his head....

Well there's the OG tracklist with Got It Locked & That's Drama. Then the Greedy Green tracklist with 18 tracks. They're a German bootleg/compilation company that just keeps reissuing old or out of copyright music. It's nice they leaked those extra tracks tho.
P.s. the 2002 grouprip is sourced from the Greedy Green release too.

i guess you have a different definition of perfect ;)
just compare your download with the aftermath compilation from 1996

Thanks OG Jory, appreciate the work :)

no probs.
still cant believe the album only got 3.5, def would of gave it a 4
-
Do you guys think that "Got It Locked" was not on the 2002 releases of the album because it already saw an official release as a single from Aftermath/Interscope and they didn't want to run into any legal problems so they left it off? I always thought it was strange that that track was left off, but it kinda makes sense now that I think about it.

Yeah I need to hear the OG a few times, but people def underrate King T's above average lyrical ability.

Makes sense... Was the other track that didn't make the cut on the "Got it Locked" single, as well ?

What Did "The Source" Say In Their Review?
they gave the album 3.5 mics. imo it deserve at least four.

That's Drama was on the Thy Kingdom Come 'Sampler' LP....Chris 'Glove' Taylor said it got lot of airplay back then when the radio got hold of it so the track got shelved.
