Title: Eazy-E (feat. MC Ren) - 24 Hours To Live (Remix)
Post by: Okka on December 23, 2012, 05:16:48 AM
Was this song only released on a 12 Inch? I can't find this on any Ruthless compilations or releases.

Song was also released on promo CDs.  It appeared on a promo CD for "24 Hours to Live" and as a b-side to the promo CD for "B.N.K."
"B.N.K." (w/"24Hours to Live Remix as the b-side) was set to be released as an official single in July of '98 in cassette and vinyl formats only (why no CD, I don't know), but Ruthless decided not to release it as a single at all ( only to release "B.N.K." later on Bone Thugs "The Collection
Volume 1.") I don't believe "24 Hours to Live Remix" was ever released on anything other than promos, but there are quite a few of those promos around.

dude's on point though
I was scratching my head, asking the same question the other day
where the fuck did this come from?
so I did some research and I found out it came from a promo
http://www.discogs.com/Eazy-E-BNK-24-Hrs-To-Live-Remix/release/480193
guess it was never released properly, only as promo

Not on the one pictured. And the BNK promo CD is just 2 tracks, and no 'b side'

Actually, you're right.  It had been a while since I looked at it closely.  It does appear to just have the album version.  Guess that means that the only version of the remix I have is from the B.N.K. 12 inch promo.  Still, I think there are some versions out on cd that have the remix as well.  Although, it's clearly not on some of them.  Somewhere around here, I still have the ad from some magazine (can't remember if it was "The Source" or "Rap Pages" ) for the version of the single that was supposed to come out in stores, that summer.  Not sure why they didn't release it, or for that matter, why Bone really wasn't represented on the "Decade of Game" album, at all.

I think Bone was left off of Decade of Game because that was a Priority release and Bone was signed after Ruthless left Priority. But I could be wrong.
