    The "Rhinestone" we got as a part of the Forgotten Demos CD as a part of HT20 is the 1998 re-recorded version, not the 1997 baby cassette tape version, so it isn't entirely complete.

    Yeah ik its the Crow/Zomba Sampler version, but what I meant is if we hopefully get a higher quality of SnM and Fuse from this tape we will have all baby tape songs in higher quality, honestly wish all of em were re-recorded in the studio like Rhinestone lol. But prolly it was only SnM in a different version closer to the Chester one I assume.

    Stick N Move, Fuse and Dialate are probably the exact same versions we have, yet will sound different.

    Stick N Move and Fuse will hopefully be an upgrade quality wise, if the rip is good. And considering we already got upgraded versions of Reading My Eyes and Rhinestone, this could give us a better sound to the complete baby tape.

    Dialate will also probably sound different, but more raw in this case, since the HT20 version was polished/remastered, so we will get a sound closer to baby tape tracks in this case.

    If it came out weekly it'll roughly be 110 episodes excluding specials and holidays (if they had them). 

    Did you take into consideration the NBA season and not all throught the year? Honestly watching em isnt the problem, we got enough people to watch em all pretty quickly, getting the episodes is the hard part, and then hopefully recognizing the track.

    It's near the end of the video.

     

    Jeff Blue talked about “NBA INSIDE STUFF – BG CUES" on June 4th, 2021 and when he was questioned about what “NBA INSIDE STUFF – BG CUES" actually was, he replied with this: “ Umm, so BG stands for BACKGROUND, so a lot of times when, uhh. So, a publisher’s job is to, umm, exploit, and exploit means get money, from the, the artist’s catalog, so when we, uh, sended out, we were trying to get, you know we got “The Crow”, um, we know too many got “The Crow”, so that song appeared in there, but also, you also have the backing tracks, which a lot of times when you’re listening to, uh, a tv show or whatever, um, you hear the background. And without the vocals, so that’s what “BG CUES” is for. And then the “NBA” was probably was placed in, uh, a promo for, you know, “NBA”, um, you know, basketball. So that’s, that’s what that is and so, yeah.” He also then confirmed that it’s an instrumental of a Xero demo.

     

    Thats cool new info to me, havent really kept track of his interviews. That actually makes total sense, Im pretty sure its a known song's instrumental. The really problem is finding the episodes here. Someone would have to be willing to let us check that out, plus its been really long ago, Im not even sure who would have access to those archive rn besides the companies themselves.

    Here's the Wikipedia page on NBA Inside Stuff, though Wikipedia isn't always trusthworthy - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NBA_Inside_Stuff

    It states that the running time of each episode from 1990-2002 is 21-22 minutes and that it was on NBC around that time. We would probably have to look for NBA Inside Stuff episodes dating from 1996 to at least late 1998.


    I'm not sure if you know of Xero Hunting, its a team looking for LP rare old stuff, this is a song we have def talked about a lot over the years. The tricky part is that NBA Inside Stuff aired weekly so we'd have to sift through a ton of episodes. This had to be in 1998 or 1999, but I don't know of any way of finding all of those episodes, there is not archive online. Also, there's always the possibility that it could have been one of the Xero tracks we already have, that was just used in a video montage on the show. Its unluckily that its Rhinestone, since Rhinestone did exist in BMI, but it has to be a 98 studio quality demo, so after the Zomba deal. The issue with this is finding the episodes, since there is no online archive and the episodes are a lot to look for em one by one, the only chance would be contacting people that could have access to those episodes from back then and convince em to share them with us which they probably dont even have the authority to, since its NBA's property I assume.

    A random thought I had. Seeing as Jeff said this was something Mike was creating for a soundtrack, do y'all suppose it might have a connection to the mysterious NBA Inside Stuff -BG Cues song? 

    Honestly i doubt it. I dont think NBA Inside Stuff background music counts as soundtrack in any way.

    I think the NBA Inside Stuff - BG Cues song is probably one of the songs we already have, maybe Rhinestone.

    Make sure to check Linkipedia, Im sure many of the info i mentioned exist in Linkinpedia too, and probably info for more of the stuff you posted that I didnt think of from the top of my head. By the way I believe your post doesnt violate any rules As long as you dont provide download links for any material officially released you are safe. Most of these are from youtube anyway so. Imo you should include the channel names etc, I doubt anyone would harass people, LP community aint like that. Its hard for us to evaluate or even understand what you have there, without listening ourselves.

    Just from the top of my head here are some more info:

    -The Xero Faith instrumental is a fanmade one by a friend of him, he didnt intend to pass it as a real one. However he doesnt have any demo "See" in his channel. 

    -The Xero Pictureboard is legit, it leaked this summer.

    -The Xero Rhinestone Audition Instrumental is also legit, however its a lazy rip TJ Demonte did. He has re-ripped his audition tape but he hasnt publish it and idk if he will.

    - The Don't Stay/99 Problems demo is just fanmade. Al-B did that one and another LP-JZ remix back in the day 99 Problems/One Ster Closer, which got very popular. The dj is claiming it sparked the idea for Collision Course, which has never been confirmed, however there is a WBR internal cd that contains his remix, however its not an official remix.

    - What Are You Worth is legit

    - Good Goodbye demo is legit

    - About Looking For An Answer I remember Mike back in the day said he had made 2 versions, one with a more LP-ish instrumental and one more stripped like the Hollywood Bowl one and he wasnt sure which one to put out. However neither of those version have leaked. Idk if you just found em like that lol

    - All The Mall Soundtrack demos you mentioned are legit and if I remember correctly there is another demo but I dont remember the name rn.

    - Papercut vs David Banner (Remix) is legit an official remix. Its from a Mixtape of that mashed up rock and rap artists by DJ Vlad & Roc Raida. Mike was the "host" of the Mixtape, he did some interludes/skits and stuff for them, so yeah this remix is official and approved by Mike for sure.

    - I doubt any of the other remixes you mentioned is legit.

    "Deftest" (Xero Song)

    No chance Deftest is Reborn. Deftest is one of the very first Xero songs (pre 4 track tape) and also it was a Mark experiment. There is no chance the band continued working on Deftest long enough for Chester to have sung on it too. I can tell you right now that, with what we have, Deftest cant be Reborn. But it would be cool to clear up whats up with Reborn if someone could ask Mike on Twitch about the song.

    Its not a song, just the artwork cover of the cd, it was done by Joe and its very cool. Mike did the artworks for Rapology 12,13,14,16 too.
