Interesting! I would've pinned this for Quality error.

This is my favorite hip-hop song of all time so I was aware of the time frame for it. Glad to once again have the version without Evil Dee yelling over the beat for the first minute and a half. I had this version on an old computer.


>3. Bright As The Stars - Black Star (prod. by Ayatollah)
>(b-side on a Black Star single)

Right - figured this one.

Also interesting. I had heard this sometime around the time Eardrum came out so I assumed it was from that album's cutting room floor stuff.

SUPER interesting. I pinned this for early 00s. No idea why, probably the nature of the beat. Sounded like early Kweli/Hi Tek work. Anyway this is my favorite from this album.


>6. Ocean Song feat. Mela Machinko (prod. by Rahki) (This one
>is from 2014's "The Cathedral" mixtape)

Gotcha. I pinned this as being very recent so I was accurate here.


>7. 7:30 feat. RES (prod. by DJ Quik) (This was actually on The

Cool. Would've guessed Quality era just because of the Quik involvement. I have the Beautiful Mixtape Vol 1 somewhere but I guess I didn't listen to it haha.


>8. Fortfied Live feat. Yasiin Bey (fka Mos Def) & Mr. Man

Yea knew this of course.


>9. Tryin To Breathe feat. Killer Mike (prod. by Midi Mafia)

Yea there was a "Beautiful Struggle" drop in there somewhere so I knew this one.

Oh sad. I like this one.

I'd love that. I probably have a lot of it somewhere myself but as stated above, old computers...so I probably haven't heard a lot of it in years. Listened to "Right About Now" recently which I'm a big fan of.
