"Right now, I wanna just take y'all back. Right when I hear this music, it brings you back to a place and time. Bringin back a lot of memories... It's Good Music... -Kanye West" ℗2006 Tube Records Music, Words and Rhymes by Kanye West For Very Good Beats / HIPHOP Since 1978. Kanye hosts a selection of tracks that he has sampled in his productions with DJ A-Trak providing the mix and cuts. All songs are played at around the same speed as used for sampling. As Kanye states on track 2, this is an official mixtape but the tracks don't appear to be licensed for appearance so it needs to be listed as "Partially Unofficial Release" as per Discogs guidelines. Issued as a factory-pressed CD in a standard jewel case with paper slipcase, printed colour card inlay and tray liner. Although 2006 is the only date listed on the release, Japanese websites list the full release date as such. Track titles are listed but some are misspelt on the release and have been fixed. There are no artists credited to each song. Original tracklist on colour card inlay back: 1. "Sinnerman" Intro Used For Talib Kweli "Get By" 2. "I Wish You Were Here" Used For Kanye West "The Good, The Bad, The Ugly" 3. "Innocent Til Proven Guilty" Used For Common "Testify" 4. "Chicago" Used For Beanie Sigel "The Truth" 5.
