Aborted Peace album

I've heard whispers about this but when I did a forum search I couldn't find anything. Can someone give me info?

Well, I did hear something about emotional ejaculate on the floor, but I kind of blew it off. shrug

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

From Wikipedia..take it as you will...

During the "Hit and Run Tour" in 2001, an NPG single from what was billed as the forthcoming new NPG album, 'Peace' was sold. It featured the title track, "Peace" coupled with "2045: Radical Man". The album remains unreleased, while "2045: Radical Man" was given to Spike Lee for his Bamboozled soundtrack. Instead, "Peace" and "2045: Radical Man" were later released on the internet-only release of The Slaughterhouse.

Listening to The Slaughterhouse was what got me curious. It's really fucking good.

vitriol

The album was announced on the official site as 'forthcoming' for over a year.

It should've been the 4th chapter in albums by The NPG after Goldniga, Exodus and Newpower Soul.

AFAIK, the exact tracklist is unknown. Some of the scheduled tracks were also shortlisted for the also scrapped 'High' and some of them finally appeared on 'The Slaughterhouse'.

If my info is correct, some of the rumoured tracks for the album were: “Peace”, “2045: Radical Man”, “S&M Groove”, “Northside”, “Hypno Paradise”, “Golden Parachute”, “The Daisy Chain” and “Gamillah”.

"Peace" was going to be the 4th "New Power Generation" album. It was intended to be released

sometime in 2001 but was shelved. Two singles were released for it...

"Peace" / "2045: Radical Man"

"The Daisy Chain" / "Gamillah"

Apart from these 4 tracks, the only other song released from it was "Northside".

No tracklisting is known for the album (or even if it was completed).

No other songs have been confirmed to have been intended for it.
