    2. 2Pac - Cause I Had To (Po' n----- Blues OG/Shock G Version)
    ​

    ​
    If Lil Wayne was the king of unreleased music, then Pac is the God because of how much he made with uncompromising quality for the most part. Now my #1 pick could've been in perfect sync with my #2 content wise if I had picked a more "death conscious" 2Pac song, but Cause I Had To can literally define his entire rap career. We got conscious Pac with a dgaf attitude on this, all you "Pac was never lyrical" f---ers need to use this as an example of your ignorance. And the Bill Withers sample? Oh no you can't even try hating on this. Scott Storch should've left this alone.

    There are over 200 unreleased 2Pac songs floating the internet with various "versions" and that is a headache inducing search to make sure you have a legit Pac track. Running From The Police got like 4 different "OG" versions because of the different people put on the chorus, s---'s irritating. And there's still at least 50 songs we haven't heard at all but who knows when they release it? I can't even figure out who has the right to it all now.

    So after careful evaluation, my #1 pick without question despite incoming "HOW COME YOU PUT THAT OVER THIS U STUPID b----" or "WHY DID THIS NEVER MAKE IT" posts, followed up by me ruining your internet life is.......please take it personal....

    1. Kendrick Lamer - I Hate You (Letter To Death)


    ​
    Easily Kendrick's best song in his career, yet never released. Could be a top 10 Rap song ever written. I'm dead serious. This is Stan level, this is The Message level, this is So Many Tears/Pain/Dear Mama level quality. The concept is genius with Kendrick telling death to stay away from the people he cares about in a letter only for Death to remind him he should be thankful he hasn't come for Kendrick yet when he could've at anytime. That first verse has to be relatable to everyone on the planet and that second verse is too real.

    Religious or not, this record should've been mastered and released properly, this sounds like Section 80 or just after Section 80 Kendrick (waiting for somebody to correct me). There are plenty artists who rap about death, but not quite to death in this fashion. Interestingly, my #2 was going to be 2Pac's Reincarnation but I changed my mind last second. That would've been poetic justice, but I also thought it'd ultimately look too corny at the same time.

    *I have a link for all songs prepared, PM me if you want it

    GJ @831's Finest—nice, fairly diverse list though a little old school heavy—but I don't blame you, the current era of leaks is absolutely insane to navigate. I also assume this list is simply personal taste (which makes the list line up a lot more from what I know about you as a poster/listener).

    More people follow his lead and make dope threads like this!

    I can understand him going w old school leaks. If u take current leaks its like -for example-100 future or thug songs all sounding the same. No offence btw but which would u choose ? Also think that most of these songs are better than a lot of random current leaks.

    there's a lot of thug leaks to sift through but they definitely don't all sound the same lol. Obviously not all of them are good, but there's a reason a lot of them were never released. If you could go through dre's vault I'm sure you'd have 100 songs that all "sound the same" too. There was just a lot more security with leaked music in this regard before the internet/emailing verses.

    If we're just talking about legendary leaks/grails, there's stuff like thug - "new bae" (and "photogenic" which I couldn't find on YT)

    or "pissy pampers (kid cudi)" by nudy and carti


    or since he said it can include "original" versions of songs, you could throw in the extended version of "slide" by Frank/Migos/Calvin Harris with the extra verses

    New bae is nice (2nd meh) but if we're talking ACTUALLY unique thug leaks that dont have a similar beat I would say;





    Man I love these 2 songs

    Massacre is one of my favorites, Gangster s--- was officially released as a single though so it doesn't count toward OP's criteria

    Pissy Pampers I included as a "legendary leak" because it's so popular an illegal upload of it topped the spotify charts and carti said "how the f--- do you guys know the words to this" when he played it at a show and everyone sang along. GOAT song though

    Yeah I’m not on top of newer leaks unless it’s an artist I’m invested in. I also tried to not have the same artist have an appearance more than 4 times for sake of diversity. I’ve gone through many “newer” leaks in the past from various artists and they were not worth all that time listening to/finding a link for myself. I think there was a huge leak surge in 2014 with YMCMB and there was a lot of horrible music and some good, but a lot of s--- to navigate. I’m not dedicating 4 hours a day to browse all those and then only keep 1 or 2 lol

    I feel you man, Thug and Future are two of my favorite artists and I can't even keep up with their leaks like that just because of the sheer quantity of them.

    Usually just wait for @Narsh to spam me on whatsapp with links

    Devil's Work by Joyner kinda had a similar concept, at least it reminded me of that song.
