Leftover Tracks
Leftover tracks include "I C Dead People" produced by Eminem, and "Future Thugs" produced by Black Key and featuring Ghostface Killah, Ludacris & Icadon. In 2005, Redman played an instrumental produced by Erick Sermon on his European tour which he described as "hard as hell", but it was never released. He also performed a song titled "Be a Gorilla" which was never released. In 2002 there was talk of guest appearances by Eminem & 50 Cent, Christina Aguilera, and P. Diddy, with a release date set as early as March 2003, but it is not known if those songs were ever recorded. In that time period, the album had the rumored title Re-Vended. In 2003, Redman told the Source he was going for a different feel then his previous albums with production by Fred Wreck, JellyRoll, and MegaHertz among others. Tracks mentioned were "Car Banga", "Reggie's Got A Gun", and "Blow Your Doors Off". Even though a lot has changed since then, the overall tracks that were supposed to be on the album made it onto the final cut.
In two particular interviews, Red mentioned he did 10 joints with Scott Storch, and 4 with Timbaland. 1 of those Timbaland joints might make it onto "Muddy Waters 2". It's rumored that Red recorded as many as 300 studio songs between 2001 and 2007.
Red returned the favour of having Pete Rock produce "Gimmie One" on his album by doing a joint titled "Best Believe" for Pete Rock's upcoming album "NY's Finest".
The album leaked onto the Internet on March 22, 2007. Following its release, the album debuted at number 13 on the U.S. Billboard 200, selling about 44,000 copies in its first week.

Famous quotes containing the words leftover and/or tracks:
“To brew up an adult, it seems that some leftover childhood must be mixed in; a little unfinished business from the past periodically intrudes on our adult life, confusing our relationships and disturbing our sense of self.”
—Roger Gould (20th century)
“Our law very often reminds one of those outskirts of cities where you cannot for a long time tell how the streets come to wind about in so capricious and serpent-like a manner. At last it strikes you that they grew up, house by house, on the devious tracks of the old green lanes; and if you follow on to the existing fields, you may often find the change half complete.”
—Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)
