Dipset, I love You
Original
I was so used to the mixtape version the album cut just felt sub par to me due to the lack of the sampled vocals
Fishscale had a few songs that needed to be replaced after the original ones leaked. nfortunately they took it off YouTube recently but the original version of The Champ sampled Fever and the intro was directly from Rocky rather than an imitation:
Probably because the original version wasn't mixed at all but I actually prefer the album version. Closest I can find is this performance from 2007:
And then Q-Tip fukked with it even further with this remix, which IMO would be the definitive version if it weren't clean lyrics lol:To be honest, the newer version was better in my opinion. It sets the tone way better, great beat and the vocals are better.
The first time I noticed it during "Back in the Day" I wanted to throw my phone out the carthe Ready 2 Die album on streaming sites isn't even the original LP that dropped in 94

Yeah, he beefed up the drums on Survival of the Fittest, Eye For An Eye, Right Back At You, Up North Trip, and Trife Life.Hav is a genius, but Tip doesn't get enough credit for the work he did on that album. He produced 3-4 joints on there and I think he helped clean up 6-7 songs on there with his mastering and mixing.
