Genesis (explicit)

~ Release by Busta Rhymes (see all versions of this release, 29 available)

Annotation

Note that this listing omits Ass on Your Shoulders (feat. Kokane) and adds Pass The Courvoisier, Part II at the end. A US version was apparently also available with this listing on some pressings, however the liner/cover was misprinted with the barcode and tracklisting of the other version; rather than this one. Confusing!
