I got hit up for drop's, exclusives quite often in the early to mid 2000's. At this Particular time when this was recorded (late 2004/early2005?) I had multiple people hit me at the same time with short deadlines, so I ended up kinda including all the drop's into a single song to send out to multiple parties haha (which made it no longer "exclusive") the homie Sam Sleezy was one of them.
When I moved to New York in 2014, I ended up living with Sam Sleezy, the trade off was I was supposed to return to emceeing starting with an actual exclusive for his decades in making legendary underground hiphop mixtape (which I finally did, recording "By Design"/"Track 37") as well as recorded some songs for what was supposed to be the next "Dutchmassive" album.
Along side releasing the main project:

Sam also released a Bonus album, all on multi-disc/cassette of more exclusives. which he included "Project: REACH" on

I remember being in his kitchen when he finally brought up the question, "Hey, i've always been wondering, did you get lazy and triple dip to send this track out to multiple DJ's as an exclusive back then"
hahahahahhaha
Yes.... I did, but I also inlcuded it as the title track the album in between albums / mixtape titled "Project:REACH" in 2006.
