SerioDrew

We haven't started anything yet. We need a group of people working together, maybe in a Skype chat.

ok lets start then, im in

My Research Update:

• The first message I sent to Miller London was at 12th March, however he has no update yet, he verified that yesterday: "Any Update On Rapology Series? No, Not Yet."
• "Music Obsession" hasn't replied yet, and Afresh91 hasn't got his cd either.
• Rapology Vol.11 i suggested someone to buy from amazon is no longer available, did one of you bought it?
• Is LPLive staff into contacting LA record stores yet or not ?

Goddamn this is exciting, some of us take a one year holiday and tip in for a big bus and fuel and all of us fans should just have a hunt around America going to every single record store and collecting all information to the smallest minute detail about the rapology albums, get every connection possible untill we finally find it, Vlog the entire thing, blast Linkin Park, Xero and Fort Minor songs in our bus speakers, It would make Linkin Park history, a linkin park fan roadtrip

Lol not exacly what i had in mind, more like creating a list of record stores and email them, but if you find people to follow you it would be dope for you guys.

My Research Update:

Seems like Lance doesnt have a lead about where are his cds, so the only one who surely has what we are looking for is Miller London (Ubran Network) last time he replied was March 22th when he said he is still looking for it but no news from him after that. Of course there are still "Music Obsession" and Afresh91 that could get us some info but i wouldnt put my hopes high, which means we have to start contacting LA record stores. Is LPLive Staff into it already?

About Vol. 11:
Since Afresh91's order is taking too long seems like it may never arrive so i thought someone could give it a try buying vol 11 from a different seller than Afresh's and Astat's, I have found this one: https://www.amazon.com/Urban-Networks-Rapology-vol-Audio/dp/B001CYNEBK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1490721465&sr=8-1&keywords=rapology+11

Off Topic (HU):
If someone likes Hollywood Undead i may have found a rare song of theirs too: https://www.reddit.com/r/HollywoodUndead/comments/61a7k1/hu_here_to_hear

I created a request for a closed torrent tracker. Bounty for him is quite large. But if there is more, the chances will increase. So all who are present on Apollo.rip can add a bounty to the request.

/requests.php?action=view&id=14920

P.S.: Sorry for my bad english.

i dont understand what you said, what is Apollo ? i dont understand any of it actually

My Research Update:
Lance replied again today: "So far I've not had luck. I moved about a year ago and I purged some things but was pretty sure I had kept copies of some CDs. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find. After scanning the art work for my website I packed a lot of stuff away. If I come upon it I'll let you know."
(Still waiting for responces from London Miller & seller "Music Obsession" & Afresh91 though...)

Yeah, looks like it's the way to go now. Unless those 2 people that we're waiting answer of actually answer this week... Neve loose hope. Despair will never win!! (xD)

There are actually 4 things we are waiting for.

But yeah contacting record stores is the only thing left we can do, so lets get it started.

Nothing mailed yesterday... Hopefully today

damn i was really hoping we had some news, its been a long time since we had any news.

I have no update as well, still waiting for 3 replys, one of which i will hopefully get during the following 2 days.

My Research Daily Update:
I'm waiting replies from Lance & Miller and a seller (Music Obsession) who said they will look if they have something.
Miller & Lance replied that they are still in search.

So as Almamu said "we might get something to listening too the next week".

My Research Daily Update:
I'm waiting replies from Lance & Miller and a seller (Music Obsession) who said they will look if they have something.

Lance replied to me yesteday : "I haven't forgotten you, but the stuff I was looking for isn't here at my house. I thought it was. Let me check this weekend in my storage. Best, Lance"
So we are expecting news during this weekend from Lance and in 2 days from Afresh91.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
-Could you release "Lee Cadena ft Dj E-Man - UN Rapology Mix" from vol 13 ? just curious to listen to it
-Did you Afresh buy it from the same seller as Astat?
-Which site did you both bought if from ?
-There is another seller of vol.11 in Amazon named "tmurrell2" but i've sent him 3 messeges and he haven't replied.

Damn, do you at least know if it is on it's way ?

Mine still hasn't come yet....I'm holding out hope that I didn't get the wrong copy too

My Research Daily Update: I have sent 28 pms in total to people associated with Rapologys.
Im still waiting for 8 replies, 2 sellers and 6 people who worked at Rapologys.
I have gotten 20 replies, 17 from sellers and 3 from people who worked at Rapologys
I'm still waiting replies from Lance & Miller and also today another seller replied: "I'll have to look. PB"

Note: A few days ago i was listening to HT and i read the booklet and i saw that at "Mike Thanks:" 007 was mentioned.

My Research Daily Update:
I have no update, actually I'm still waiting for Lance & Miller to reply. The only thing worth mentioning is that a few days ago i was listening to HT and i read the booklet and i saw that at "Mike Thanks:" 007 was mentioned.

- Lance Whitfield [Graphic Designer] : (he's is searching, answer pending)

"I'll take a look and see what I might have. Will have to check in my storage and let you know if I can find anything Give me a few days"
- Miller London [urban Network] : (he's is searching, answer pending)
"Most of those CDs are in storage When I get a chance I will see if I can locate them"

 

Well, I received my Amazon order of what was supposed to be Rapology Vol. 11 today...and opened up the package to find a copy of Tune Towne XI.

damn sorry mate, it's a pitty :\

Lee said it himself. I guess we'll do a recap for the entire information as soon as we'll have Rapology 11 and Closing.

Thats not what I asked, the question was about "My copy should be arriving in the next few days, I'll keep you guys posted." But yeah we should do that

I was just listeting to Hybrid Theory and i was reading the booklet and by chance I noticed at "Mike Thanks:" 007 was one of names, just thought it was worth sharing

My copy should be arriving in the next few days, I'll keep you guys posted.

Do you have any info on that, or just hypotheticly ? cause the seller you bought it from doesnt reply to messeges

The Miller London's answer looks promising. Hope he finds the CDs. I'd gladly buy them (?) hopefully he is allowed to just rip that song. Can't wait ^^

Yeah i think we'll get something from Miller or Lance they seem that they are willing to help

My Research Daily Update: I have sent 28 pms in total to people associated with Rapologys.
The 9 im still waiting are 3 sellers and 6 people who worked at Rapologys.
I have gotten 16 replies from sellers, but unfortunatly nothing worth mentioning.
and 3 replies from people who worked at Rapologys:
1: Lance Whitfield [Graphic Designer] : (he's is searching, answer pending)

"I'll take a look and see what I might have. Will have to check in my storage and let you know if I can find anything Give me a few days"
2: Lee Cadena [Executive of Rapologys] : (got some general info but he went offline)
"Joseph used to work for me and I had Mike stopping by my office and I had him do some graphics for me. I helped joseph hone his skills by getting him with some Beat Junkies. I helped them get themselves together as a group (Xero) and would introduce them at places like The Whiskey A Go-Go. The Troubadour and The Mint here in L.A."
3: Miller London [urban Network] : (he's is searching, answer pending)
"Most of those CDs are in storage When I get a chance I will see if I can locate them"

But did he give you any info before going offline?

only some general info but worth mentioning :

For those of you who ordered Rapology 11, Lee says he think Joe did the artwork for that one.

did you talk to him as well ? (that amazon seller that those guys bought vol.11 is not responiding to messeges though)

Thanks for all the work you're doing dude, none of this would be possible without you.

np man, I'm really happy the rest of you appreciate it

I'M TALKING WITH LEE CADENA AT FB ATM, I WILL LET YOU KNOW IF I GET ANY INFO ASAP !!!

edit : sht he just went offline

I asked him if he could help me out with any kind of information on Vol. 12.

I also messaged all members of the Urban Network LinkedIn account, asking if they can help: https://www.linkedin.com/company-beta/1053434/?pathWildcard=1053434

Do we have any response from there ?

I need a few people to help me assemble a list of who to contact, if I blindly look for stores myself I'm not going to find them all.

I can't help with that, my free time is limited atm but im sure some people would be willing to help.

My Research Daily Update: I have sent 29 pms in total to people associated with Rapologys.

The 12 im still waiting are 3 sellers and 9 people who worked at Rapologys.

I have gotten 16 replies from sellers, but unfortunatly nothing worth mentioning.

I today i got a reply from a guy, named Lance Whitfield who did some artoworks for Rapologys back then:

"I'll take a look and see what I might have. Will have to check in my storage and let you know if I can find anything Give me a few days"

Ok let me know when you're wrapping that part up and we'll move on to contacting record stores who might have stocked releases by The Urban Network, then we can look into the Rapology releases.

i think you should do that at the same time i'm waiting for responses cause I believe most of the people involved at Rapologys won't respond, and most sellers don't know a thing so...

My Research Daily Update: I have sent 29 pms in total to people associated with Rapologys. I have gotten 14 replies, all from sellers, but unfortunatly nothing worth mentioning. The 15 im still waiting are: 5 sellers and 10 people who worked at Rapologys.

Mike trolling us again I see... lmao

why would you say that ?

I said it based on the fact that SFX Multimedia Group office (which Urban Netwrok was part of) was at 120 N. Victory Blvd. Burbank, CA .

do you keep messeging record stores ?

I'll try to connect with last.fm admins to search user who scrobbled rapology 12, if that's account is still active...

good thought even though it seems unlikely they will give any info but its worth trying

My Research Daily Update: I have sent 23 pms in total to people associated with Rapologys and have gotten 11 replies back all from sellers, but unfortunatly nothing worth mentioning. The 12 im still waiting are: 6 sellers and 6 people who worked at Rapologys.

If I'm not mistaken it was said earlier that Mike has already been messaged for more info, including whether or not there are other Xero tracks out there and he hasn't replied.

His memory of older stuff isn't always the greatest, but that's nothing we didn't already know.

it's a shame though i mean i sure when he heard Fiends & Drop he was like daaamn *nostalgia* so he and every band member of every band should have the files of all there songs.

I actually have LinkedIn. What should I ask him? Should I link him the thread?

 

Edit: I also contacted the seller of the two other Rapology samplers, but since you already got a reply in the meantime, I suppose he won't be able to tell me more^^

Ask him if he has volume 12 , and if he can sell it or give it to us, and if he can send us the tracklists of volumes 11-12-17-18 (just in case there are more than volume 12's Closing)

We've messaged several LA-area prominent record stores, etc with no luck yet.

That's a good way to find I believe there is a strong chance we'll find it that way, i'm trying to reach out sellers and people who worked at Rapologys throught the internet so we kinda cover everything we can
