hahninator Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Well Songs From The Underground was 8 songs, and 7 had been previously released. Only Hunger Strike was new, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skipees Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 There are two songs on the BMI site under "Junkyard Scientific": "Animal House" and "Flight Path" no credit for Mike though only for Styles Of Beyond members. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Almamu Posted March 10, 2017 Author Share Posted March 10, 2017 (edited) I've re-scanned the Rapology Thriteen CDs as these had fingerpints and even my cat's hair on it. The other scans look completely clean, but these two CDs look way better now:http://imgur.com/a/6kYMu Edited March 10, 2017 by Almamu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astat Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 (edited) 1. "Drop" is, for all intents and purposes, an untitled track. An overwhelming majority of tracks on these compilations are just titled "Drop." 2. "Fiends" is just titled "Fiends" and I'm really not sure why it's being debated. A little common sense makes it clearly obvious that "F/007" is supposed to be "featuring 007," and if you guys would actually bother to look at the rest of the tracklisting you'd see every other artist on these compilations has their record label credited after their song's title. "CO Rap Up" is "courtesy of Rap Up," which is presumably another early indie label name Xero was associated with like Mix Media. Remember, Rap Up gets a shoutout in one of the scratch samples in It's Goin Down. Sorry for sounding like a dick, I'm just a little confused why anyone would think "F/007 Fiends CO Rap Up" sounds like a song title lol.

It wouldn't make much sense for the song name to be that long anyway. I guess we can end up with Xero ft 007 - Fiends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"F/ Miss Jones" has the a bigger size (like the artist itself) and a space between the "F/" to the featured artist. Of course "F/007" doesn't make any sense and this is why we're trying to solve it all. It's not "CO Rap Up", it's "CD Rap Up". Tracks without labels has asterisks to note that these are exclusives in my opinion. Hence why "Rap Up" isn't there to refer to a label name.

gorast Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Holy shit lmao. I never imagined more Xero songs would be dug up by anyone but the band themselves. This is awesome. "Drop" has some weird-ass lyrics when compared to the rest of the Xero-era music we've heard. I really like Mike's flow on Fiends, too. In your face the whole time. I wonder what other pre-Hybrid Theory music might be out there on random compilations like this that we haven't found yet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skipees Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 So two questions left. This: Because of how Drop starts ("Hi, we're back. Kenji, Artofficial. Rapology 13."), I think they might have been featured in the Rapology series before. We should probably look for volume 12 and see if there's another Xero track. and what's/who's 007.

[AndOne] Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 It's in a question because of the font size. "F/ Miss Jones" has the a bigger size (like the artist itself) and a space between the "F/" to the featured artist. Of course "F/007" doesn't make any sense and this is why we're trying to solve it all. It's not "CO Rap Up", it's "CD Rap Up". Tracks without labels has asterisks to note that these are exclusives in my opinion. Hence why "Rap Up" isn't there to refer to a label name. The font size is so inconsistent all over the whole artwork that it doesn't mean much. I agree that it possibly mean featuring, whoever 007 is. It's also definitely CD Rap Up.

mattyice318 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Going off the lead that Mike says "we're back", they could potentially have a track on a third rapology album. I can't find any information on the internet in regards to Rapology 12 or 10. No sales anywhere, no images even. Rapology 9 has a tracklist and it's much too early for anything Mike would be on. Also what's the first Styles of Beyond track off 14? That'd be nice to hear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astat Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 (edited) The "exhale the smoke from molotov cocktails" line in Fiends is sampled from Emcee 007's verse in Spies Like Us by Styles of Beyond, hence him also being credited on this song.Any further questions as to whether or not it's supposed to be "featuring 007?" lol.Also, been doing some digging on the Rapology series and trying to find out whether any other LP-related tracks were featured on them. So far, I've managed to track down tracklistings for volumes 2, 4, 8, 9, 15, and 16 - nothing featured on any of those, but of note, High and Mighty's "B-Boy Document '99" is featured on volume 16, which was sampled in She Couldn't. I'd be willing to bet that's where Mike and/or Joe first heard the song.*Edit* Found a tracklisting for volume 10 as well (nothing - it's titled as "Rapology X" instead of using the number 10, which made it harder to find), and I just bought a copy of volume 11 on Amazon that didn't include the tracklisting - fingers crossed!. Haven't found any info on volume 12, but I feel like if there are any further tracks to be found, they'll either be on 11 or 12. As previously said, anything earlier than 9 would be too early, and 16 is well into 1999 when Chester was in the band, so I doubt they would have been contributing any further songs at that point.
