Using stem extraction technology, A 90's Tape does a decent job of capturing these instrumentals that weren't officially released. On some of these ones by G Rap and Kane you can hear some of the washy effect of audio extraction. I'll send him my article on the subject to see if it helps his work in engineering these instrumentals.
You can get a copy of the Korean 2026 CD reissue of "Reebop" here on Discogs or here at the Funk section of my eBay Storefront (disclosure: As an eBay Partner, I may be compensated if you make a purchase).

Within a dreamy moment of music, we bear witness to one of the greatest creations Earth has ever produced. Terri Lyne Carrington is the musical vessel which represents the beauty of the Black woman and does so to outstanding effect. Joined by an all-star cast of musicians, "Autonomy Song" projects femininity and divinity with a gentle and inviting touch. A combination of spoken word and singing combines for an ode to the mother of all humanity and a powerful statement of self-respect. So press play and enjoy the serene and meditative vibrations which Terri Lyne creates.

In college, Qool DJ Marv did a lot outside of the classroom. He organized an event called the NAACP Block Party, which was very much inspired by Unity Day, a Philadelphia based summertime event produced by WDAS radio station.
Unity Day was all about multigenerational community togetherness and Marv wanted to try it at Emory University.
This would be Marv's farewell to Emory University and it was incredible that he and his team of volunteers, fraternities and sororities was able to have a day where students, and the public, saw Miles Jaye (who you see in the first minutes of this video), Arrested Development and A Tribe Called Quest.
Wish there was more footage of the day and wish the footage didn't end at the beginning of one of Tribe's classics, however, this small glimpse of that magical day is large in vibes." - Qool DJ Marv

The one thing people don’t understand is that I was going on these radio stations totally new to the game. I had to learn on the fly because I was thrusted into the scene because of my demo. I had to learn how to conduct myself and how to work live radio. Salute to Stretch and Bobbito for letting Mista Sinista bring me up to represent." - Kukoo Da Baga Bonez
