WTF are these remixes on the Illmatic 10th anniversary cd?

[Big Mel]

Jesus Christ. I just cracked this bish open after hearing people sing this reissues praises for years. I'm expecting the REAL remixes on the bonus disc. Who authorized these janky ass R&B versions? The World Is Yours sounds like a Bruce Hornsby song now. On the Life a bytch remix i thought i heard my doorbell ringing. Mac Mall wouldn't even rhyme over this One Love beat. and it's edited???

oh, and Large Pro had been used that Star Wars beat on the 1st Class album.


seems Colombia got in on the joke too.

 

[Poitier]

You didn't like the Aint Hard To Tell remix?

Who cares where Large Pro used the beat first, Nas blessed it serious.

Stop ya bloodclot crying, Brother Mel.
