In this little article the album is titled as "D.O.E. Not only did he tell me this intriguing fact, he had actually dug it up via Google Books (read the magazine here ). Cairo told me he remembered reading an actual review of the album in VIBE magazine in their February 2001 issue, where it was awarded a glowing 4 records review. However, it is not quite what most bootlegers and fans has envisioned it to be - the truth is that it's more of an early version of the compilation that this site is named after - 2002:s "The Lost Tapes". He gave me the key information which would reveal that "D.O.E." was in fact a proper album that was completed and scrapped pretty damn close to its original release date. Now, the other day I received a very interesting e-mail from a guy called Cairo or CairoKid who knew me from the site as well as the Philaflava forums (so many good peeps over there!). I did however like the title and what it represented but that about as far as it went. At best I figured it to be a working title that Nas and Columbia used when working on and building up hype for "Stillmatic". To be honest, I personally never made much of the "Death Of Escobar" rumors. A concept album? The original title for "Stillmatic" ? A fan made-up fake title? There's been a lot of bogus tracklists and downloadable bootlegs floating around the internet for years now - none of them giving a proper representation of what the project really was. Any Nas fan are well aware of the rumors surrounding that title although no one quite seem to know exactly what it is.
I am talking about the "Death Of Escobar" album by Mr. In usual order all tracks are here featured in the best possible quality I could find them in.

You will most likely have heard everything on this presentation before, but for fans of Nas (and seriously, who isn't?) this is exciting stuff as we are finally able to confirm a long standing myth, provide an original tracklist, and as always provide a download of the project in question. Today is the 1st of May, which is pretty much my favorite month of the entire year, and I figured it'd be a good thing to drop something quite extraordinary on y'all.
