anyone know WHY Wutang didn't put the dirty version of "PROTECT YA NECK" on 36??

[OG Hack Wilson]

it really ruins the flow of the CD to have the best track censored


i used to have an mp3 of the  dirty one but ive  lost it since

Some albums have the clean version of a single on them. It's the same deal with "Slippin" on the second DMX album and a few others that escape me at the moment. I'm not sure why labels do this but it happens from time to time.

to maximize the impact for the people.  it makes sense to put the dirty version on there but the clean version has a much bigger impact on everybody, bcuz ppl who dont listen to hip hop and little children will get the message clearer and it'll stand in good taste rather than just the usual hip hop stereotype.  in some songs it actually makes sense, "protecy ya neck" i couldn't give u the slightest clue

I think this mostly happens in error.

yeah seems to be done from time to time...i got the dirty on here somewhere

For those wondering, the dirty version is actually on the Greatest Hits album they put out a few years back.

For Slippin they took a Grover Washington jr Sample or something, and the owners wouldn't allow the sample to be used, if he cussed, henceforth that record being edited on the album version.

For the Wu, I couldn't tell you. Good info on the dirty being on the GH

I still haven't got the dirty version of Hip Hop is Dead that says "murder the dj", which is fucked because my local radio was playing that version. Can anyone hook me up?
