There are several words removed...such as hooker, gat, hoes, high, etc. I don't recall if most stations played this version or not; however, the video used the "censored" version. Our radio station played the LP version when the song was out.

The promo CD (PRCD 5602) on Death Row/Interscope has two versions:
1. Clean Version (3:13, actual 3:12)
2. LP Version (4:10, actual 4:11)
The Clean Version on the promo is the same censored version as the clean soundtrack, except that it is faded about 1:00 early. It always annoyed me that they faded out the last verse. I still hear this faded clean version on the radio today.

When I added this song as gold, 3 or 4 years ago, I'd forgotten just how graphic the language was, despite not having any "bad words" per se. It wasn't until I heard it on the air - especially that last verse - that I realized how I needed to clean it up. Luckily, if any of you try this, you can cleanly harvest the instrumental loop from the end of the song.

Actually, I think the last verse is probably the least graphic. The only objectionable phrases are "if you smoke like I smoke, then you're high like every day / and if your ass is a buster..."
