Super Tight is their masterpiece. I remember buying both Ridin Dirty and Beats Rhymes and Life (they came out on the same day on Jive) at Tower Records and being let down by both. Production is way more layered on Super Tight.

Still give a slight edge to RD, but LOTTA cats shytted on Supertight after TH2W. Glad it's starting to get it's credit.

Was listening to that first Southside Playaz album the other day. 3-2 killed that whole album
I was just listening to Hit The Highway yesterday. 3-2 really could do just about anything man. Choruses and rap his ass off. So much talent. OG Southside Playa. The streets really killed most of SUC.:to:

Been listening to a lot of UGK lately, while "Ridin` Dirty" is their best album (to me at least) I've really been BuMP`n "Super Tight". The follow-up to "Too Hard To Swallow", you know the album that Pimp C went on to dismiss as "garbage" - is vastly superior to it's predecessor in every way. It`s really the first example of the classic "UGK sound" of lush instrumentation handled 95% by Pimp C himself, rather than a bunch of second-rate session musicians playing shytty organ riffs. Pimp & Bun stepped up their lyrical game BiG TiMe on "Super Tight", Pimp C really starts to flesh out the character that most know & love him as....this over~the~top~bombastic~minks~dragging~on~the~floor~playa who gave no fukks! But all of that is beside the point. There have been rumors about a 2~disc version of "Super Tight" flying around the internet for years, but unfortunately not much has materialized as far as mp3s, peep this post from Trill Connection though:



Originally, Super Tight... was meant to be a double album called Soul 4 Life, with its second disc being called Super Tight. Jive said no to the idea, so it was scrapped pretty early on. Luckily, some of the tracks that were meant for Soul 4 Life—such as "Chrome Plated Woman," "Heaven," "Living This Life," and "Shattered Dreams"—all found a home on the 2007 self-titled double disc.

Now, while the following tracklist isn't officially for Soul 4 Life—it's actually for a compilation of tracks from the Super Tight... sessions that the homie B B S put together for his own personal use—it still gives us an idea of what a double disc version of the album possibly looked like, and what songs had been recorded during that era:



DISC ONE:

01.) Return [5:12]
02.) Underground [3:17]
03.) Pocket Full of Stones Pt. 2 [4:58]
04.) I Left It Wet 4 Ya [4:29]
05.) Mack the Knife [3:38]
06.) Feds in Town [5:29]
07.) Front, Back & Side 2 Side (featuring Smoke D) [4:17]
08.) Protect & Serve [4:35]
09.) Smooth Slangin' [6:09]
10.) Ménage à Trois [6:20]


DISC TWO:

01.) Here They Come [3:41]
02.) Stoned Junkee (featuring 3-2) [6:40]
03.) Rat-Tat-Tat [1:21]
04.) It's Supposed to Bubble [4:26]
05.) Weed Weed (featuring 3-2, Mitchell Queen) [6:40]
06.) '93 Mac [5:14]
07.) p*ssy Got Me Dizzy (featuring 3-2) [4:51]
08.) How Long Can It Last? [3:53]
09.) Three Sixteens (featuring DJ DMD) [4:38]
10.) High 'Til I Die (featuring Big Mike, BoBo Luchiano) [4:16]

Here is what I know what about some of these tracks: "Smooth Slangin'" and "Ménage à Trois" are Bun and Pimp solo tracks respectively; "Ménage à Trois" was also intended to be the album's first single, but Angela Winbush wouldn't clear the sample the track used and it was scrapped; the version of "Front, Back & Side 2 Side" featured here is shorter and has some Ice Cube samples in place of Pimp saying "Never let hoe ass n*ggas ride"; "Return" is about three minutes longer here than it is on the retail release; and finally, "High 'Til Die" features a George Benson sample, but much like Winbush, he wouldn't clear it and the track was also scrapped.
