You can't knock a OG, or even a OG Vibe 1 (the greatest hits). Honestly only time I don't bang a OG version of a song is when the Artist himself has chosen the replacement track (Like Toss it Up or How do you Want it).If the artist died before the track was even finished, I'd bang that out. Even if its just 1 verse.

i usually agree

but "Street fame" remix is better than the og

Sold my soul for material riches, fast cars and bitches

Yup, a lot of artists has sold their souls to the industry by gettin' owned through contracts. It doesn't necessarily have to be to the devil and if he did then oh well his bad for being deceived into thinkin' he could actually enslave his soul.

Well, I mean if the Remix can do the OG justice, I'm sorta for that, but that's a rarity. Look at Until The End of Time. That's a worthy Remix, it took a simple calming reflection of Life and made the fucking Lyrics Appear like Tupac was speaking for a nation, and was changing the world with every lyric he be spiting. Its amazing what a beat can do to a track.

The Scarface "Untouchable" album version, hands down.  DRGH version was OK, but not as good as the well known mix.  I get chills everytime I hear it, takes me back to when I was bumping it with my walkman on a homemade casette tape mix of 2Pac tracks.  Might even still have the tape somewhere back home!

This one ain't even close... anyone who was around in America and a fan of the music, knows that the Scarface album/video version ruled the summer of 97'.  That video brought Pac to life and that track was a banger.  

I heard it months before on the Death Row Greatest Hits and I thought it was a good song, it was kind of a feel good joint... but they took the song and made it eerie, mysterious, dark, on some Pac's coming back to life shit... making it legendary.
