Detoxed: Rap Albums That Got Permanently Shelved [Photos] - Page 9
Dr. Dre & Ice Cube – Helter Skelter
Best Known Song: “Natural Born Killaz”
As the Straight Outta Compton biopic will show you, the two N.W.A stars’ lives grew very hectic after departing the group. We will always cherish “Natural Born Killaz,” however.
A$AP Mob – L.O.R.D.
Best Known Song: “Hella Hoes”
Although several well-received singles were released, the Harlem collective scrapped the compilation last year to make way for A$AP Rocky’s eventual No. 1 Billboard album, among other projects.
DMX, Jay-Z & Ja Rule – Murder Inc.
Best Known Song: “It’s Murda”
Ja Rule let the cat out the bag that it was Jigga and the Dark Man who ruined the movement because their 1998 egos kept colliding.
Lil Wayne & Juelz Santana – I Can’t Feel My Face
Best Known Song: “Always Strapped”
For a myriad of reasons, this project never manifested and The Weeknd has since stole a No. 1 hit out the title and the producer never got paid for the numerous tracks he recorded for it. Good times.
