Title: California Love Question?
Post by: dubsmith_nz on July 04, 2009, 08:29:57 PM
Anyone know why the original version of this track wasn't on "All Eyez On Me" and only the remix was? The track would of easily been the biggest sogn off the album, anyone got any insight into this?

The OG is just too played out - people been playing this song everywhere for the past 13+ years, it's just too much...

I think that is the reason why the original wasn't on the album. I mean the song was getting played on the radio in the summer of 1995. The video dropped in December and the album came out in February 1996 so I guess they thought it was played out by then so they dropped the remix.
