Old random tracks off old random projects
That's where you're misguided at. Some of these tracks and instrumentals were meant for the actual project, including this version of "California Love". The entire album is everything Dre had a hand in or in the cases of "Let Me Ride 2001", "Bitchez", and "House Calls (Remix)" [the bonus tracks], he inspired. The live instrumentation on LMR (a likely instrumental he would've used for that album), then you had the "Bitchez Ain't Shit part 2" from The DOC from the "Helter Skelter" project that he was working on with Erotic D and company. Songs and beats The DOC and D was workin on before he bounced
Then you have The Street Scholars collaboration that he oversaw with Sam Sneed but obviously due to other reasons that project never got to see the light of day until later, which still has unheard material left. Plus J-Flexx was a part of that group and worked heavily with Dre during those times. He's even ghost spittin for Dre on "Burnin Up" but you can't really tell becuz I muddled it a little bit to the point where it sounds normal and like he's supposed to be actually rappin it. Sneed also played a pivotal role in Dre's moves & production Post-Doggystyle and looking at the credits and remembering "U Better Recognize" it's eazy to c. Flexx was writin shit for Dre too, like "California Love" for one.
Then you got Firm/Aftermath era Dre working heavily with Nas and still keeping RBX around for the show. Nas is all over this one. I could've added more but it wouldn't have made sense seeing as how this is a concept album. It's all about Mind Control on some Puppet Master shit but you'll never guess it becuz everything is so subliminal in the music thru the lyrics' messages as Song by Song rolls out
On top of that it tells a story if you follow the "script" and it weaves thru 4 sequences:
Sequence One - Death Row
Sequence Two - Familia
Sequence Three - Street Scholar
Sequence Four - Aftermath
the bonus tracks are bonus tracks that add more depth to the story. Had this had came out in real life they would've all showed up on different pressings before the max out [cd, cassette, vinyl]. But that's another story.
I've added edits to tracks that needed it and boosted levels within range for songs that needed a little more bump than mud. This whole thing plays out like a movie. Everything from The Intro to Been There Done That to Ghetto Hero to Phone Tap to whatever, all plays in to each other
In all honesty this isn't just another thrown together random ass bullshit compilation. This captures everything dude was aimin for during those times. Even sonically thru songs like "Natural Born Killaz" and "Blunt Time" and "Let Me Ride '01". Shit's just on a whole nother level.

Dre's a perfectionist. He wouldn't have wanted anybody to listen to this.
