The "Golden Era" five-piece was to release their debut album (entirely produced by PR) via the producer's Soul Brother Records imprint in the mid-nineties, but the project was eventually shelved, though it went on to become one of the most bootlegged albums in hip-hop on the power of the single "Fakin Jax" alone. Eventually, the album would see its release in 2003 as part of a double-album, spotlight compilation of the producer's mid-nineties production.

Lost Sessions features 10 unreleased beats from the InI era and is available in both digital and physical formats for heads to excavate with reckless abandon.
