We didn’t complete this set, but assisted Alex (Goon) with this one in May 2008. I just wanted to link to the original post, but all of the links are dead. So I upped the set since I wasn’t able to get a hold of Alex (of course I sent an email at the last minute). I added an additional track for “Do You Wanna Ride” that wasn’t included in the OG set. Peep what Goon originally said about the album/set:
“I only started on this a few days ago but thanks to a major assist from Thomas, it’s finito. This is probably Jay’s worst recieved album even though, in my opinion, it’s faaaaaaar better than volume 2 and on par with volume 3 and Blueprint 2, but obviously below his best. Much of the album is played so only about half the tracks use samples, the obvious ones being the “Superfreak” sample on “Kingdom Come” and the “Shaft in Africa” sample on “Show Me…” So Between Kev, Ivan, and I, we’ve done sets for all of Jay’s albums (unless someone is REALLY dying to hear a sample set for “Street’s is Watching”). Hooray for us…or not.” [page]
