Blu Cantrell - Hit ’Em Up Style (Oops!)

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   The promo CD single has a version labeled "Radio Mix."  My Promo Only CD runs 4:02, and I'm pretty sure this is also the length of the "Radio Mix."  I do not know if there are mix differences from the album version, or if it's simply faded a little early.  The database contains one CD that runs 4:01, which might match the promo CD.

	I have the exact same question, Aaron, and thought I'd resurrect this thread to see if we can come up with a response this time around. According to my research, Blu Cantrell's "Hit 'Em Up Style (Oops!)" was released as a commercial CD single and the lead track is listed as "Radio Mix" with a printed time of 4:02. So this difference appears to exist between the single and album, but we still need to determine if it's one of "version" or "length". (I don't have the album version/length, so I'm unable to compare for myself.) Does any know? Edited by Todd Ireland

	The Radio Mix is an Early Fade of the album. Album is 4:10, my promo cd single is 4:01. The album version is more compressed than the promo making it seem louder, but both are maxed to 0. Edited by mainrhythm

	Thanks, mainrhythm! Does anyone have the actual commercial single run time?

	My commercial CD single Arista 13974 has "Radio Mix" as track 1. Printed time is 4:02 and actual time is 4:01. Interestingly, track 2 is the instrumental and runs the full 4:11.

	Thought I'd bump this up in case mstgator's commercial CD single info for Blu Cantrell's "Hit 'Em Up Style (Oops!)" was accidentally overlooked for database consideration.
