TS just liberated an alternate version of the Japan/Circuit City bonus track off Lu’s 2007 release The Cool. Same verses and same beat but Trey handles the hook. Too be honest there isn’t really much difference at all, but if any of ya’ll are like me… your harddrive is full of alternate/original/unfinished versions of tracks as they are always cool to check out from time to time.

This is ill. Trey actually doesn’t sound too different than when Lupe sung it. LOL. I liked this record when it came out. I remember Lupe saying he originally wanted to get Chris Brown on the hook, but his camp passed up on it or something.
