from the promo CDr

The CD has large gaps between tracks and a couple fade in and outs were uneven in volume so that was fixed. I also replaced the Believe track with a better quality copy I had which was the exact same mix and master. All tracks were lossy mastered on the CD, contained in FLAC so as to not lose any quality

Another day, another unreleased album

Damn the entire thing too!!

Where'd u get this op

Look at who OP is. This is the Dilla king.

He finds gems on the regular.

@Uhhhhhh @AllisonXO

A guy I know got his hands on it and sent me a rip

"Long story short, I managed to track down an ex-Dreamworks Records employee who had the original CD in storage - apparently they made the promo CDs but never distributed them to radio etc. as the label went a bit haywire after Universal took them over in 2003 and then got folded into Geffen Records in 2004. Vast improvement in quality on the bootleg version floating around!"

The intro looks like an OG version of the renaissance intro that's cool

the track "Official" has its OG mix and master too

"I Believe" has a whole nother beat which had been circulating around bootlegs for years

That's insane if this has just been out for awhile now and no one realized

wait

it's existed but the CDs are suuuper rare

discogs.com/release/17546848-Q-Tip-Open
