Title: Best Clean Versions
Post by: no1wammy on October 03, 2007, 04:25:45 PM
West coast is known for doing clean version of their hit single. Great way to rid of all that profanity. What's your favorite clean version?

Example:

* Dr. Dre f/ Snoop Dogg - Nuthin' But A G Thang
* Tha Eastsidaz f/ Snoop Dogg & Jayo Felony - Got Beef

(Will not post links unless asked for it. Don't wanna get it trouble by the man, if you know what I mean.)

2pac- I Ain't Mad At Cha, How Do You Want It, etc, hell any Pac single

Ice Cube's clean versions of his Predator album was sick. My mom bought it for me clean and I actually kept it until I bought it explicit.

Death Row was famous for this back in the day, I thought the Dre Day one was pretty tight some funny lines in that one ;D, the Clean version of Next Episode off of 2001 was tight as well Snoop ripped it

Another good one is Too Short's "Shake That Monkey."  His delivery is much lighter on the edited version, he seems like he was pissed off when he recorded the explicit one.  The lyrics are so much more hilarious in the explicit version though.  Another example like that is "To Live & Die In LA."

Pac has always been fervent in changing up lyrics when it comes to Videos!

Clean version back then were the shit because back then the artist was damn near recording 2 albums. One with the cuss words and the other the words actually replaced with something more suitable. I remember LL Cool J and Ice Cube saying that in interviews. Now it is just a bunch of space and bleeps and sounds to censor it and it fucks up the whole album. Artists now won't go back to that for clean versions though because it is too time consuming.

With the whole Don Imus issue, maybe it's time to bring back the clean/dirty album releases. It'll really help with Wal*Mart customers, for instance: they don't release explicit versions on their live stores (not even online). So you would have to go to Best Buy or Circuit City, but they only serve the uncensored.

Let me add something cool: anybody seen how MTV does their censors? They are fucking hilarious.

ie: Dr. Dre f/ Snoop Dogg - Dre Day (scene where a fat guy takes the freak dude from behind: whole part is blacked out)
(Hee hee)
