Anyone notice that the clean radio mix (3:45) is 30 seconds longer than the clean album version (3:15)? I thought this was weird as usually the clean mixes of songs are shorter for radio. Is this one of the rare times that has happened?

And, it looks like the 3:45 mix has never been issued on
CD. |

This doesn't seem so rare in hip-hop, where album versions commonly segue abruptly into the next cut, while radio versions continue to fade. Kanye's "Through the Wire" and Dr Dre's "Let Me Ride" come to mind. I'd say mixtape culture plays a role here. @Aaron - can you weigh in? |

I think you are correct, outside the CD single, its never seen the light of a day on a CD or various artist comp. |

Yes, that's not uncommon for hip hop singles to be faded early on the
full length album. One '90s-era example I can think of is "I'll Be Missing You," where it fades even earlier than the promo version, which is already an early fade of the full-length version. |

Aaron, In Da Club's Clean CD Single version does not fade earlier than the Explicit version found on the LP, it extends out another 30 seconds not found on the LP. Generally I have not seen many clean radio mixes extend out longer than the LP version. Usually that is why they make clean radio edits. The last 30 seconds of In Da Club's radio mix off the CD single is pretty much instrumental. If I were the radio station, I would have just taken the Clean LP version since it fades quick, leaving more time for other songs. Edited by PopArchivist |

Yes, that's what I mean. There are instances where hip-
hop songs run longer on the single than on the album. "In Da Club" is one of those examples. "I'll Be Missing You" is another example, although the LP version run time is longer because of a 2-minute intro tacked onto the front of the song. "Feel So Good" by Mase runs 4:00 on the single but only 3:24 on the Harlem World album. Also mentioned earlier is "Through The Wire" by Kanye, which is faded early on the album. |

A 3:45 version of "In Da Club" can be found on the UK CD Now That's What I Call Music! 55 (Virgin/EMI CDNOW 55, alternate number 7243 5 91653 2 5). Whether it's the same as the US clean version, I can't be sure, but I compared it to both the dirty and clean lyrics online, and it's almost identical to the latter.
