Lost Media I've Never Seen Anyone Talk About

So I'm obsessed with Rina Sawayama, and before she released her own music, she was part of a hip-hop group called Lazy Lion from ~2009-2013 (which, unfortunately, is also the name of a NFT, so researching them is 10x harder than it would've been otherwise). A majority of their music and covers have been wiped off the internet (with the exception of three songs, one of which may have never been officially released).

 I was able to find an archive of their MySpace which listed an EP as well as the names of other songs. However, since MySpace isn't running anymore, they are not playable. 

In an interview I saw, they also talk about an album called You Took Away My Love (which that song I mentioned earlier is supposedly from), but I can't find any mention of it apart from that interview. However, according to the Rina wiki, "You Took the Love Away" may be the name of the song that was on that supposed album, not the name of the album itself. Either the album was released but the name is unknown to me, or it was never released. The self-titled EP and a few other singles, though, were in fact released, but only two of those songs are available. 

They used to have a YT (where the covers they mention on their facebook were apparently uploaded), but it seems to have been deleted.

 I've looked at some links with the Wayback Machine, and I couldn’t find anything on Archive.org. 

This discovery has been interesting, though it’s not my first experience with obscure music lost media. 

Should I post about those as well? I’m also wondering if I should contact the lost media wiki or Reddit about these. Also, if you think you could help me with this, that’d be cool. I’ve saved what I could find of them, so you could message me. 

I apologize for the lack of detail. I typed this in a hurry! Hope you had a great day!
