I have a strong preference for the AFOT version. This track would probably be even more pleasurable if the audio quality was better by the way

Yeah, I think it's fair to say that the Old Tunes version if objectively better in every way. It's mostly the same but with much clearer audio quality. Old Tunes sounds like it was recorded from a tape recorder microphone in a room while the actual tracks were playing on the stereo.

The same is true of Finity. The AFOT version is noticeably cleaner production wise than the R35TT version, where the lower frequencies are squashed and warped.

This could just be how the tapes were ripped.

Not any particularly good one. :P
Unfortunately most of the good verses only survived in the form of other people's snapchat stories that have long since disappeared.

Me and another guy also did a bit of freestyling over Sequoia, but I don't think anyone recorded that (We were still better than that one guy who rapped over Rue The Whirl).

Rue the Whirl rap will always remain one of the greatest things I have ever heard.
