    If you go to ohhla.com they have the lyrics for every artist. If you type All Artists-->Nas and scroll down, they have 6 songs listed that they claim were on the IAm promo. I'd post a link but I'm using this new iPad and I don't really know how to use it. I'm more of a PC guy.

    I had the cassette of the original 13 tracks of the I am bootleg on cassette. The tracklist was:

    Fetus
    Small World
    Money is my B...
    Papa was a player
    Project window
    Dr. Knockboot
    Stay schemin'
    Sometimes I wonder
    Hardest thing to do is stay alive
    ? by myself
    Wanna play ruff
    Blaze a 50
    We will survive

    I don't know what all these other tracklist are that are floating around the net, but this was the actually bootleg I had back in 98' on cassette right around the time the source did their original review.

    LAD and AEOM are in my top 5/10 albums of alltime, but I think this wouldve trumped both..

    I don't know if you were hip to mixtapes in 99 but I remember sitting in my homies car on July 4, 1999 and he had a mixtape with all of the stuff that wasn't on I Am.. My point is that Nas was murdering the mixtape game in 99. He may not have been hot in the clubs or on the radio, but he was destroying mixtapes.

    I know this came from around the same time. What was this track "Triple Threat" feat. Nature and Nore supposed to go to?

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9eqcX5gho8

    "Death followed him, until it swallowed him whole,
    It was signs he should've read that was inside of his soul"

    That verse might be a contender to Verbal Intercourse.
