The database only notes "remix" next to J To Tha L-O! The Remixes. It's probably worth noting that this is the hit remix of the song (45 version?), which propelled it to #1 on the airplay charts. My station also played the album version on occasion, though mostly during the morning and midday time slots. Don't know why, since we frequently played rap music during those dayparts and the remix was obviously the hit.
Also, the song "I'm Gonna Be Alright" is listed as "remix" on two different CDs. Again, the remix was the hit version, but there are two different ones. The "Track Masters Remix" on the remixes album features 50 Cent. The hit version released to radio is called "Track Masters Remix feat. Nas" and obviously features Nas instead of 50 Cent. Based on the runtime, it appears that the Nas version is probably on the Now 10 CD. |

The Remix is the first track on the two-track commercial CD single. (I believe the second track is the album edit or album version.) So I would consider the Remix to be the 45 version.

Now 10 has the radio version of "I'm Gonna Be Alright (Track Masters Remix)", featuring Nas.
Aren't the remixes also the hit versions of both "Ignition" and "Fiesta" by R. Kelly? I don't believe I've ever heard the album versions of those songs. I could be wrong, but I think the remix of "Luv 2 Luv Ya" by Timbaland & Magoo was the hit. Also, I think the remix of "Oochie Wally" by QB Finest was the hit. Those songs barely made the Top 40 (and I think "Luv 2 Luv Ya" was Airplay only in 1998) so I'm not sure if they are in the database. Again, I don't recall ever hearing the album versions. I think I've heard both the original version and the remix of "Never Scared" by Bone Crusher equally. I think the original version was considered the hit but, again, not sure. |

Yes, the "Ignition" remix was definitely the hit, and I believe you are correct about "Fiesta." You are definitely correct about "Luv 2 Luv U." I will pull out my promo and document the details in a separate thread. That's one of my favorite '90s hip-hop tracks. Correct again on "Oochie Wally." I have a promo for that, too, which I will pull out and document on the board. I'm not sure about Bone Crusher... Edited by aaronk |

Regarding "Ain't It Funny", Joel Whitburn cites this as being an album cut only with no designation for a cd single release. Perhaps Paul Haney could chime in here to clarify Joel's designation.

Pat, I'm pretty sure that "Ain't It Funny" was never released as a domestic commercial CD single. Perhaps Brian is referring to the import single??? Edited by Paul Haney |

You're right, Paul. I dug it out and turns out it's the promo CD single. God, I was just positive I had a commercial CD single for that, but I guess not. |

It was recently pointed out to me that there are two Murder Remix versions. My promo CD single is currently not accessible, but I'll try to retrieve it in the next few days. The version my top 40 stations always played is the one that features ONLY J-Lo and Ja Rule.
There is also a version that features a rap verse by Cadillac Tah, and I never heard this version on the air. The version without Cadillac Tah briefly cuts to an instrumental section (which is very obvious if you're listening for it) and then inserts the "is that your boyfriend" part before the last verse. This part is therefore heard twice in the version without Cadillac Tah, but only once in the version with him. |
