radio edits you prefer to the album version

[kingwell]

Got this idea from http://ilx.wh3rd.net/thread.php?msgid=3114872

Trying to think of some I liked....

[Cowboy]

why would anyone prefer any radio edit to the album version??

[d-nice]

All of Pac's radio edits were fire. I Ain't Mad At Cha is almost a completely different song. Ask half of your favorite rappers today to do it.

For some reason I always though Jay-Z's "Can I Get A..." was better censored than the uncensored version.

[Eddie G.]

Too Short - Shake That Monkey.  He raps it differently, and he has more energy on the radio version.
Daz - In California.  Same situation, well I guess it wasn't the radio version, but the clean one on RR&GB is better than the one on the NWA reunion album,

luniz - i got 5 on it

bone thugs - crossroads

yea maybe cuz the hook sounded better with "what what" instead of the "fuck u"...

yeah the radio edit is way better

i always liked the radio edit of "Nuthin  But a G Thang" because of Dre's 2nd verse. "Mobbin with the Dogg Pound BOW WOW WOW"

[We Fly High]

yup. 2pac to live and die in LA i liked more radio edit.

[Bones01]

That single of Mack 10 latest album can't get the name. Heard the radio edit first and when i heard the dirty version just felt it sounded worse cos i was used to the clean version

dmx slippin.....

IMO "How do u want it?" is one of those tracks.  The third verse on the song (for the radio version) fits the song more than the third verse of the dirty version.  Song is still a classic, but that verse on the edited could have been made dirty for the explicit.

Why was I Ain't Mad at Cha's 3rd verse replaced with completly new lyrics?

[Juronimo]

Kam - Whoop Whoop, I like the hook better on the radio version, plus the first 6 lines flow better on the edited version.

Can I Get A.. by Jay-Z is another good example, I don't like the regular version but I like the radio version.
