Ah, this song. I remember WPLJ radio in NY started playing it sometime around 2013-2014 (despite the song coming out in 2009). They first played the full 5:13 version with Kardinal's rap and then they made what appeared to be an in-house no rap edit that sounded strange since an official No Rap Edit existed.

5:13 - Full Album Version. Has an instrumental ending.

3:58 - Radio Edit with Kardinal's rap and a fade out ending.

3:51 - Radio Edit with Kardinal's rap. Censors "ass" on the rap verse. Cold ending.

3:51 - No Rap Edit that only featured Akon and Colby O'Donis's verses (keeping Akon's verse "where'd you come from you're out of this world" which is cut out of the Radio Edit. Cold ending.

3:19 - UK Edit. Keeps Kardinal's full rap verse and Colby's verse but edits out some of the choruses and pre-choruses and Akon only gets one verse at the beginning. Censors both "ass" and "eyes" from Kardinal's verse. Cold ending.

My copy from TM Studios is the 3:51 radio edit as
mentioned above.

Recently, TM Studios Prime Cuts subscription allowed
subscribers to also download UK tracks. I've found
that sometimes the UK versions are edited differently
and may have a shorter edit for a song.

TM, in their database, list a U.K. Radio Edit for this
song that has a listed time in their db of 3:15, but
most likely runs 3:21 or so. I don't have a copy of
the UK Radio Edit to note any differences.
