[Buck Seventy]

This song was on DJ Clue Stadium Series 3 Mixtape that should've made it on Foxy's album. One of the best songs she ever did.

 

[Kaydigi]

 

[blackjedi]

was suppose to be on the doggystyle but couldn't clear it but these songs are so

 

[Zero]

Roc couldn't clear the sample so it was taken off future pressings of the album. Ironically, it's the worst song on the album


Doom couldn't clear the Sesame Street sample for Kookies so he had the change the beat up for future pressings

[New Jeruzalem Journalist]

Originoo Gunn Clappaz feat. Smif N Wessun

"Likkle Youth Man Dem" (original)





"Likkle Youth Man Dem" (album version)



Couldn't get the Barry White sample cleared. Original was supposed to be on Da Storm, I had a copy of the original version off one of DJ Logic's mixtapes that Duck Down was selling directly through their fan club. I think the Canadian version has the original too. Sucks, cuz it's one of the best Boot Camp tracks they ever recorded and the live instrumentation version on the For Da People album is horrible.

 

[Buck Seventy]

Also this song

Was on Doggystyle on first printings they took it off

I never knew that they took that song off. It's probably because I still have the original Doggystyle CD. They also took the interludes off as well.

 

[New Jeruzalem Journalist]

Ras Kass

"Won't Catch Me Running" (original)



"Won't Catch Me Running" (remix)




Crazy shyt is, if I'm not mistaken, he couldn't get either one of the samples cleared and they're from two different records, lol.
