This guy aint no crip, and I'm 100% sure on that because he doesn't type like a crip, I know crips, and that fool is not a crip.

so where do EDI's vocals come from?  they clearly were made in the 1996 era

First off bro...THX on the E.D.I. version, didn't have that one.
Good looking out!

Good question.
But I'm defo leaning towards the Lil' BIG version.
Then I wonder if maybe he was added on an OG w/ EDI replaced by him?

Who gots any 411 on him?
In '96 not just anyone could get on a track w/Pac.

the first one is the real og..
the second version with edi's verse was made 96 too, but was another take of the same session.

Its entirely possible that multiple OGs exist of the same song (some extended mixes, alternate beats). D; lol guess we have to start digging deep  8) 8) 8)

"Don't Go To Sleep" and "Don't Sleep" are two completely different songs.

Don't Go To Sleep: Pictures of plenty, sippin my glass full of henny/Hands on my semi, automatic kill for pennies
Don't Sleep: When I enter the first zone, worst known mic holder/My Hummer roll up, evacuating strapped soldiers
