NPG Exodus and Gold Nigga CD's I have 2 full length CD's 1 from 95, one from around the same time. They are both credited to NPG and one is called Gold Nigga and the other is called Exodus. Anyone know what these are and if they were ever officially released. The ones that I have aren't bootlegs, but apear to be printed and pressed with full artwork | |

Yes they were officially released.
Goldnigga was the first NPG album and was released in 1993. It was only sold at the NPG Shops, NPG Mail Order and at concerts (Prince originally wanted to release it 'properly' by WB rejected it). The first pressing of the album had 16 tracks and included the song 'Guess Whos Knockin' which was removed from subsequent pressings due to a copyright issue. There was also a CD Single released from the album of '2gether'. The tracklisting was... 1. GOLDNIGGA Pt.1 2. GUESS WHO'S KNOCKIN' 3. OILCAN 4. segue 5. DEUCE & A QUARTER 6. segue 7. BLACK M.F. IN THE HOUSE 8. GOLDNIGGA Pt.2 9. GOLDIE'S PARADE 10. segue 11. 2GETHER 12. segue 13. CALL THE LAW 14. JOHNNY 15. segue 16. GOLDNIGGA Pt.3 Exodus was the second NPG album and was released in 1995. It was again turned down by WB, but this time it did get a proper release in England, Europe and Australia (but not the U.S.). It had 3 singles lifted from it, 'Get Wild', 'Count The Days' and 'The Good Life'. Here's the tracklisting... 1. npg operator intro 2. GET WILD 3. segue 4. dj gets jumped 5. NEW POWER SOUL 6. dj seduces sonny 7. segue 8. COUNT THE DAYS 9. THE GOOD LIFE 10. CHERRY, CHERRY 11. segue 12. RETURN OF THE BUMP SQUAD 13. mashed potato girl intro 14. segue 15. BIG FUN 16. new power day 17. segue 18. HALLUCINATION RAIN 19. npg bum rush the ship 20. THE EXODUS HAS BEGUN 21. outro . [This message was edited Sat Jun 19 3:37:01 2004 by BorisFishpaw] | |

IMHO they both have some great songs on, but neither of them really adds up to a great album.
Too much filler and segues. Overall I like Exodus the best out of all the NPG albums (including the 3rd one 'Newpower Soul'). | |
