I was wondering on this for a long time now, anyone got some examples? Post them
Do rappers recycle their own lyrics?

What you mean when they spit a "freestyle" and then you hear it on their album or something like them spitting a verse from their first album ontheir 5th album?
Rappers do the former all the time.

Almost all of Biggie songs were freestyles that turned into songs.. Even Bigs last "freestyle" on a LA radio station was an entire song on Life AfterDeath.

Mobb has done this a few times. I swear P's verse on ACD's "Street Life" is on like 3 other songs. Not to mention a bunch of they'reunreleased @#@* ended up on "The Infamous".

No reach at all. Duke is actually right.
The og "How We Roll" had his kids on the chorus. Since it wasnt released he used that verse on "Pina Colada".
Both versions are on the Endangered Species album.

That'd be true if Kanye actually wrote the Ego verse.
