This is something that has been bothering me for over 13 years now. I
have both the promo CD single as well as the commercial CD single and our local radio station always played a different version. The version I have is an edit of the "vocal club mix" but there was a totally different radio version that was played all the time. Does anyone have this or know of it?? |

I remember Promo Only included a remix that sampled "Got To Be Real". I don't recall whether that was on any Columbia releases - was this the one?

I'm not sure...I just remember it was only about 4 minutes long and had
the same lyrics. If I had to guess it had something to do with the hip hop junkies but it's so long ago I can't remember. It had to be a promo only (not the company) release though. |

My promo single has catalog number 6220, and it has 1) C+C Radio Mix and 2) C+C Extended Radio Mix. Unfortunately, it's at my parents' house several states away; however, I do remember it having the vocal "ladies let your body flow," which is a sample of the Nice & Smooth hip-hop track "Hip Hop Junkies." (The vocal is by rapper Gregg Nice, who was also later sampled on the hit "Start The Commotion" by the Wise Guys.)

Here's a link to a song sample of the "Nice & Smooth Hip Hop Remix" (really cool version that I never knew existed until now): Nice & Smooth Hip Hop Remix |

I just got ahold of a crap load of "Promo Only" CDs and would you know
the first disc I have has the mix on it! It's just listed as "remix" but I finally have it!!! I'm still curious if this apeared on a promo CD somewhere. Although this version didn't contain the rap parts of the song and I'm pretty sure that they were on the radio with this mix back in 1994. Edited by chendagam |

I'm also wondering if a promo CD exists for that mix. Promo Only has occasionally taken songs from vinyl for their discs. That particular mix WAS officially released by Columbia, although it appears to be only on promo 12" with a printed run time of 4:56:
http://www.discogs.com/release/641586 If you listen carefully to your PO CD, does it sound like vinyl? If not, then maybe there were edits of this remix officially released, too. PO's Mainstream series has a 3-minute version "remix," while their Urban series has a just-over-four-minute "remix." It's possible that they dubbed it from vinyl and made their own edits. |

I'll have to listen to it again. I'm assuming a promo cd must exist because
back then I think most of the radio stations were only using promo singles. |
