Download the Bootleg..
"Shit remember when both Nas and the Mobb were a half-mic short of a classic in 1999? Then their albums leak on the street corners and they ended up releasing a different album from the intended effort. I always preferred the bootleg version of Murda Muzik rather than the retail. The sequencing flowed better on the bootleg (track #2 on the retail version sounded like an outro). There was also some unreleased tracks and skits on the bootleg that didn’t make the final cut like the acapella freestyle from Cormega right before “Deer Park” a.k.a. “What’s Ya Poison”. Believe it or not the bootleg wasn’t even the version that almost got 5 mics either (it was the closest to it though). The original version of Murda Muzik had three other unreleased tracks we never heard, “Power Rap” from the QB’s finest album, and “Nobody Likes Me” from the first Violator compilation. The lo-fi quality also adds to the dark theme of the album like an old Triple 6 tape. Everyone says P was at his best during Hell On Earth but I honestly thought he was at his prime during the Murda Muzik era. He was merkin’ everybody with that emo thug brown liquor shit barely rhymin’ any bars within his verse."
