I always wondered why "Got It Locked and Pimp Hotline" wern't on it when I had heard them on the vinyl album singles that were released.

u mean "Psychic Pimp Hotline" that was released on "Deuce" in 2003 was previously released 5 years earlier on "Thy Kingdom Come Sampler"?

Weird nobody mentioned that when "Deuce" got released.

They did everything for the album.  Filmed the first single, had it making rounds on BET.  Ads in the Source "in Stores Now".  He had a special on RapCity, where they had him and Dre at Dre's mansion out on the golf course.

Guess what they asked him?  How much do you think your album will sell?

His answer:). "I would just like to have a gold plaque.  Something to show my grandkids I did something in this rap game."

It was an episode with Big Lez (fine ass bitch)

Also The “Zoom” beat is on here. So it was for king t first?

He says” me and shady doing 80” y’all think he’s talking about Em?

Kinda weird he’s mentioned Em and Dre pretty much Replaced him with Em

It is a crime this album didn't come out back then. Already heard most of it but the new tracks are banging too.

it was never released .. they just sent ads to magazines for when it was to be released, but pulled it before it actually came out.. the ads still dropped because they were sent to publications months in advance

Dre made a mistake not releasing this album.  It was not going to be multi-platinum, but it is a great album.  King T is a legend.

not a mistake, it woulda taken away from the energy eminem was buildin at the time

dre made the right choice, and that’s why he had that great aftermath run

from a hip-hop standpoint it’s an absolute classic .. but beyond that, dre needed a groundbreaking album after the aftermath comp “flop”

Exactly something went Terribly wrong at the last minute, one day the truth will come out. Maybe it had something to do with King-Tee's former label. Notice the name change from King-Tee to King-T as well.

Here in Toronto they promoted the fuck out of it 2 or 3 Vinyl singles, Cassette samplers and stickers all around the city. Got it locked was a terrible choice for a single. But IMO the album would have did well! We needed something west-coast at the time, it was getting stale.

I had the Vinly's and cassette sampler and was jonesing for it. Then a whole bunch of years later I saw an album with a pimped-out turkey on the cover at HMV. I picked it up to laugh at then I let out yeah motherfucker out load in the store. It was expensive as fuck because it had a "Australian Import" sticker on it. But worth evrery penny!

I remember the 1998 @@@@ review at hiphopsite.com. They had the full album in 1998. See also their 2003 review http://www.hiphopsite.com/2003/02/10/king-t-thy-kingdom-come/

Very dope that they did the reissue in 2023.
