Songs that had solo versions but had a feature (for better or worse) upon official release often replacing an OG verse







a bunch of OG solo 2Pac/Biggie songs vs whatever features was popping at the time, i.e. Dead Wrong's lost/censored verse and not counting fan edits

Ja Rule Put It On Me




I don't even know why the version without Lil Mo exist.

Freeway What we do

Took me a while to actually like what Just added to the retail version.. now I think it's much better

 

[H. Selassie]

The radio & album version was solo but when he dropped the video, Faith Evans was suddenly singing the hook:

 

[Art Barr]

Even worse circumstance.

When the solo version was the original hit.
Then the remix with features just feels super wack.

Doe b = lemme find out

The remix I find to be super wack.

That hearing the original in the wild.
almost never happens anymore ever.
After that huff ass remix dropped.
