Go Getters – World Record Holders [Full Album]

FakeShoreDrive blessed the net with this unreleased pre-Roc Kanye group album:

"Once upon a time there was a Chicago music conglomerate known as Kon-Man Productions, which was represented by Hustle, a marketing and promotions company run by Don Crowley, John “Monopoly” Johnson and Happy Lewis.  At the top of the Kon-Man productions pyramid, was a up-and-coming rapper/producer by the name of Kanye West.  Kanye had recruited some of Chicago’s top talent to join him on his road to riches and quest for stardom.   Producers such as Boogz, Arrowstar and Brian “All Day” Miller helped him on the production side, while emcees such as GLC, Mikkey, Rhymefest, Timmy G, Miss Criss, Shayla G and Really Doe held down microphone duties."
