The truth about When Thugz Cry (Amaru ain't all that bad after all)

My_Dyin_Day04 said:
maybe Amaru should try harder to get the full verses...this doesnt explain why they have been remixing beats to death

they want to update classic songs to real cool poppy singin songs.. thats why.

I hope they do jusdice to pac in this upcomin album..

I rememeber when they said LTTG was pacs last album also.

I smell bull shyt.

well I have the 320 kbps rip (the best on the net to my knowledge), but my point is, an mp3 can't be cdq because it's compressed data
It can be pretty damn close. Real 320kbps rips encoded directly from a true CD-quality source (a real album or something, not some CD-R that a 128kbps mp3 was burned onto) is close enough to CD quality to just call it CD quality, in my opinion. Human ears can't really detect an audible difference when listening to the original source (whether it's the actual CD itself or the song ripped as an uncompressed .wav file) and a 320kbps rip back-to-back. Even 192kbps is pretty hard to detect, but once you go below that you can start to hear the differences.

Its like every unreleased track. Nobody has a cdq of these tracks, there are either been ripped from vinyl's, tapes or just mp3's that have been degraded.

But this is all we are going to get unless Amaru release the og'z (which is not likely to be).

After recieving a lot of og'z from the original bootlegs from someone I know, I have to say that there is only a few og'z I prefer to the remixes.

I can respect other people's opinions, but after reading that I really have to disagree. Out of curiosity, which OGs do you prefer over the remixes? I think an overwhelming majority of collectors prefer a good 75% of the OGs over the remixed retail releases, even when considering the ones that were just tweaked OGs.
 
The only og'z I like off top of my head is:

Words 2 my first born
friends
when thugs cry
Never be peace
secretz of war
tatto tears
u can be touched

typical leech mentality.
i for one have dozens of direct wave/aiff rips (not remasters labeled as such) that i received directly off digitital reel. it is the person who downloads everything who has sub-cdq rips, and it is the proactive collector who gets the good stuff that on occasion leaks out to the more average people.
my problem isn't that you don't put up, my problem is that you make global statements that are false.

agree 100%.
with a digital signal i can very easily differentiate between a 192 and a true 320, however with older music that is AAD it's increasingly difficult to tell since the very source of the music was not high fidelity. a 320 rip is usually fine, and i only reserve uncompressed space on my drives for true exclusives. even though i can hear the difference, i still rip all my retail acquisitions into 192 stereo for space reasons. i'm already pushing 1.2 terrabytes and that would probably increase by 30% if i switched to 320. it's all about tradeoffs and what's good enough.

...still kicking myself over the old 1995 standard that 128 was cdq. lost a decent amount of stuff that should have stayed crisp that way. such is life.

Vist the vault website to see what there all saying, I for one tend to sit back before I make judgement.

that website is a joke. 221 actually had the nerve to say that stretch's verse on the so many tears that we leaked on the makaveli returns set was a mix job lol... that stretch was never on the song or whatever. ...that site is just a hack job last resort haven for banned streethop members who have an axe to grind. lol they can't even resolve their simple dns issue.

you can download your precious mp3's on that site if you choose, but you'd be better served by getting the original bootlegs and being proactive.
