[Megaveli]

yes i bought it in germany and i didnt import it but i bought it in the 3rd store i saw 2nd hand. so i dont know but the cd says manufacturedin germoney. im not talking about the song the enxt episode..

[Megaveli]

btw for people who wonder the song next episode in its original version can be found and bought easily in california in CDQ off the street

[Devon (BP)]

Let me tell you this by saying that rare shit like Crooked, Down low CD, and underground artists etc. can easily be found on the street.

And I'll finish by saying. U can get almost everything off the net

I'll say this, I bought Doggystyle the day it came out on tape. Now I don't know if it's because it was on tape, but Next Episode was not on, but G'z Up, Hoe'z Down was, right after the Sam Sneed skit, and before Pump Pump. With that said, Next Episode was never on Doggystyle, except maybe the bootleges that leaked like one month before the album was out. My cousin had a copy, I never heard it, but he said the bootlege wasn't as good as what came out. So who knows. But Next Episode was never on Doggystlye, case close.

i have the very first doggystyle LP, CD & Tape.... lol... and Next Epsiode is listed as the last track on those tape, cd and 12"... its not pressed/recorded tho..yea..damnit

[Megaveli]

 i might MIGHT be wrong but wasnt it on the very first pressings of the VINYL?? i think

[Devon (BP)]

I know. I've already said it wasn't on there however the G'z Up Hoes Down was on the limited pressing a/k/a the early edition and some recent editions kicking around the net. I bought the cd with it on.

No, The Next episode OG was not on the album. It was on the promo single to either Aint No Fun or the promo of Doggystyle. Im not sure but it can be obtained in CDQ

It sounds like people are making up stuff  

The sample used in both "The Next Episode" and "Runnin wit no Breaks" is from Les McCann & Eddie Harris's  "Go On And Cry," and for anyone who's actually heard that song you know the whole loop/concept is taken directly from that. (kinda like "Gz up Hoez Down" using that one Issac Hayes's "The look of Love" loop for the whole song). So that being said I don't think it's possible to guess or say who produced it 1st or whatever.. they both ripped off the entire concept from someone else.  

As far as the song being available, it depends who you ask. The (old?) DR webmaster said it was available of early copy's of the album then taken off because of clearance problems. Some Ex DR heads said that because Warren planed on using the sample for his song Dre didn’t want to use it. etc etc. I ended up calling Death Row about 2-3 years ago (in a big elaborate scam) and talking to a guy named Scott who was head of promotions and asked him about it, what he told me was that Dre kept the song off because he planed on using it for a different release, some type of compilation album he had planned. And that the song was NEVER pressed up on ANYTHING not even some of the promos (which I thought they might have a few of around the office ) He then went on to say that they don’t have a damn thing lying around the office, and if they did then he'd have stolen it already LOL!

Too bad we can't get that track, shit would have been the Doggystyle equivalent to nothin' but a G' Thang

Well I've heard a clip of the original in CDQ. If it has never been pressed then please tell me how I managed to hear it? Either mr promotion or my ears are lying! Did u ever contact the whole staff at Interscope? They might have told you a different story of how there were too many tracks on the album. And yes there were skits which were quite common back then. Giving rest before the next track or group of categrised ones from the artist or producer himself.

It's out there somewhere and that's a fact. You remind me of someone who was arguing with me on an old board over the original version of I wonder If heaven got a ghetto claiming it wasnt available anywhere in CDQ and was convinced it was rarest of the rare to obtain in CDQ.

Moral of the story: Don't believe everything you hear. The horse can sometimes talk trash

Whatever you say bro, all I'm saying is I'll take the word of someone who actually worked at DR and is knowledgeable on what went down over some kid on a computer wishfully thinking and taking guess's.
And how does you hearing it in CDQ (if you really did.. which I doubt) somehow prove it was pressed up? lol Right now there are two people we know of who have the song in CDQ, that rapper from the foseum and the other guy who played it over the computer (J Dogg?) .. both of which said they got it on a tape from snoop before the album was finished, maybe that’s what you heard. To me it seems your making this claim that it was released because you think it should have or something, but you have no evidence to support it.

I got it on the bootleg tape version of Doggystyle about 2 or 3 weeks before the album was released...I don't know what the big deal about the song is anyway, I don't like the beat and the lyrics are very average, just Snoop and Dre trading some verses, not as good as the other songs on the album
