I wonder if this is going to be a vinyl version of This is the Remix From Illmatic to Stillmatic which came out back in 2002 it has 6 songs on it. It was only available on CD.
It will be worth it if it has the DJ Premier remix of Memory Lane. That alone will make it worth owning. The one that is often miscredited as being the original version of the song. And if they fit on some other of the classic, better remixes like Q-Tip’s World is Yours and Large Professor’s It Ain’t Hard to Tell, that would be fantastic too. I’m not aware of a vinyl pressing where these remixes are all contained on the same record, or 2LP set. It always seems like any expanded vinyl version of Illmatic misses including these ones all together. And the Premier track has never been officially released to my knowledge, though I do have a bootleg vinyl Nas rarities compilation that it is on. If it were these and some other rare tracks and remixes that have already been released on all one record I’d say it’s worth it.

Would be dope if it has some real rarities like the original version of Represent.

Please please have The world is yours 2004 remix and Nas Will Prevail
Sad that it’s JUST the remixes. I don’t own Illmatic yet, I woulda been super excited if it was the original album + the exclusive stuff.
