eLZhi – Leftover UnMixedtape (MP3)

The Leftovers UnMixedtape is exactly what it sounds like: A compilation of one of the game’s most talented emcee’s unreleased and featured works.  Whether it’s a promo joint from a few months back (eLZhi and Black Milk – Deep), a feature from another artist’s project (Danny Brown – Contra feat. eLZhi), or just a rare gem from years past (eLZhi and DJ Dez – Living), these Leftovers would have passed for a fresh cooked meal if you didn’t know better.  It’s raw, uncut, unmastered, fresh from the studio and ready for your ears.  No DJs, just eLZhi and his comrades, your speakers and you. Without the Leftovers UnMixedtape, most of these songs would never have seen the light of day, so consider this a gift, and come get your grub on!
