Originally issued in 2002 on Matador Records, the album showcases Extra P at his peak as both an MC and producer, with guest appearances from Nas, Q-Tip, Busta Rhymes, and Akinyele. For over two decades, original copies have been nearly impossible to find at a reasonable price. That changes now. This first-ever reissue is essential for hip-hop heads and serious collectors alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- A landmark release from one of hip-hop's greatest producer\/MC combinations, featuring Nas, Q-Tip, Busta Rhymes, and Akinyele.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- The first-ever reissue of this long out-of-print classic.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Newly expanded to a gatefold 2xLP, making this the definitive physical edition of the album.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Includes an exclusive limited 7-inch of \"Stay Chisel\" featuring Nas (vocal \/ instrumental), housed inside the jacket and never \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003epreviously available on wax.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Presented with all-new artwork, offering a fresh visual identity on a beloved piece of Queens hip-hop history.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mb\"\u003eAlso available as CD or Cassette\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mb\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003carticle class=\"text-token-text-primary w-full focus:outline-none [--shadow-height:45px] has-data-writing-block:pointer-events-none has-data-writing-block:-mt-(--shadow-height) has-data-writing-block:pt-(--shadow-height) [\u0026amp;:has([data-writing-block])\u0026gt;*]:pointer-events-auto scroll-mt-(--header-height)\" dir=\"auto\" tabindex=\"-1\"\u003e\u003c\/article\u003e\n\u003carticle class=\"text-token-text-primary w-full focus:outline-none [--shadow-height:45px] has-data-writing-block:pointer-events-none has-data-writing-block:-mt-(--shadow-height) has-data-writing-block:pt-(--shadow-height) [\u0026amp;:has([data-writing-block])\u0026gt;*]:pointer-events-auto scroll-mt-[calc(var(--header-height)+min(200px,max(70px,20svh)))]\" dir=\"auto\" tabindex=\"-1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-base my-auto mx-auto pb-10 [--thread-content-margin:--spacing(4)] @w-sm\/main:[--thread-content-margin:--spacing(6)] @w-lg\/main:[--thread-content-margin:--spacing(16)] px-(--thread-content-margin)\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"[--thread-content-max-width:40rem] @w-lg\/main:[--thread-content-max-width:48rem] mx-auto max-w-(--thread-content-max-width) flex-1 group\/turn-messages focus-visible:outline-hidden relative flex w-full min-w-0 flex-col agent-turn\" tabindex=\"-1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex max-w-full flex-col grow\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\" class=\"min-h-8 text-message relative flex w-full flex-col items-end gap-2 text-start break-words whitespace-normal [.text-message+\u0026amp;]:mt-1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex w-full flex-col gap-1 empty:hidden first:pt-[1px]\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"markdown prose dark:prose-invert w-full wrap-break-word dark markdown-new-styling\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRACKLIST\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003eIntro\u003cbr\u003e'Bout That Time\u003cbr\u003eUltimate\u003cbr\u003eBrand New\u003cbr\u003eStay Chisel (feat.
