The Lost Tapes

~ Release by Tupac Shakur (see all versions of this release, 6 available)

Annotation

Label: Lightyear/Herb 'n Soul - Catalog #: 54377, 54385 (clean)

The Lost Tapes is thus one of the better collection of early 2Pac you're likely to come across; plus, it's one of the most legitimate, as Chopmaster J himself unearthed these recordings from his mother's basement and released them on Herb 'n Soul Sounds.
