it was unreleased.  Some of the verses have been used on a lot of guest spots though, such as on the song on Swoop G's World Don't take me personally album.  Dope ass song.  I totally forgot about it, haven't heard it in years.

It was originally written for someone else. After Pac died a version leaked with the outlawz also on it. I don't know if the outlawz are from the original recording or not but the song was written and recorded with the intent of being sold and never released to the public. Then Amaru released a remix version by Scott Storch on that wack eminem 2pac album.

I've never heard the outlawz on it.  I have the full cdq solo song.  It was one of the earliest pac songs to leak after his death.

I think that other version you are talking about is the Shock G Remix. And that is not the Outlawz on it, it's Numskull from the Luniz. I always thought it was one of the Outlawz until I found out differently a few months ago.
