Tupac Shakur Original Unreleased Interscope "Troublesome" Album Cassette Recording

A Tupac Shakur unreleased promotional cassette recording containing unreleased music. This cassette is a promotional copy of the "Troublesome" album which was never released to the public. It contains songs with many lyrics which could be interpreted as anti-police. This version of the album was scrapped due to the outcry in the media and political legislatures over such lyrics. There are a total of 7 songs on this cassette which were not on commercial release, including "Intro, Troublesome, Don't Call Me A Bitch, What Goes On, Crooked Nigga Too, Still Don't Give A Fuck & Nothing But Love". A truly historical piece of Pac memorabilia due to the fact these are never released or heard songs due to the lyrics being controversial at the time. Tupac even mentions the album in a clip linked here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJv4K6QXq0o fast forward to 2:35. If you are a serious Tupac collector, I would say this is a must-have to add to your collection. Originally sourced from a sound engineer of Tupacs. This is being sold as an artifact, with no copyrights. Reproduction of the cassette is strictly prohibited. Comes with a Gotta Have Rock & Roll Certificate of promotional cassette containing unreleased music
