Couldn't find a thread for this song, so I'll ask here. I remember hearing this on an urban radio station in 1986 and the version played had Will Smith
(Fresh Prince) saying the line, "She asked me was I horny". Every CD appearance I've come across has the word "horny" scratched out, so I'm wondering if
anyone knows if this uncensored version is available anywhere. Thanks for any information, much appreciated!

On CD, it probably doesn't exist, but it's uncensored on the original 12" Def Mix:

The Def Mix also includes additional scratching that's not on the original mix.
Back in '88, I bought a copy of Rock The House on cassette in hopes of finding the "hit" remix of "Girls Ain't Nothin' But Trouble," but to my disappointment it included the original mix (with the word "horny" censored [reversed]). A friend of mine also had Rock The House on cassette, but his copy included the '88 mix. The only CD I've found that has the original 1986 recording from tape source is The Best Of:

This is the same as the "Radio" version on the original 12" single and does censor the word "horny."

All I know about it:
The 1986 release was on 12" only, except in the UK & parts of continental Europe, which got 12" and 7", according to Discogs.
On the Mr. Magic's Rap Attack vol. 2 compilation, they just reversed the word "horny".
On the UK/EU releases, remixers Laidley & Oakenfold replaced "horny" with "[s]ome sexy", copied from a later point in the song.
The 1988 hit version was a total re-recording with numerous changes to the lyrics.

Mr. Magic's Rap Attack Vol. 2 takes the song from vinyl, and the reversed "horny" is also like that on vinyl as far as I know. Rapmasters 13 is the exact same mastering and track list as Mr. Magic's Rap Attack Vol. 2, but it has only 10 tracks instead of 12.
