my cassingle issued as priority 53830 contains, on the A-side, the "radio remix <the message>" version which runs 3:54......this info should be noted in the db....the reason the rear sleeve is truncated is because the cassingle was originally issued in a plastic cassette case and had a corresponding paper insert...

I know the cassette single jacket has the parental advisory sticker on the jacket but since there is another track on the cassette single that could be the explicit version, is "Check Yo Self" the clean or explicit version?

the "radio remix {the message}" version is clean....except for the word "ass" at the 1:42 mark....

May I get a bit "nitpicky" this time, edtop40??? :-) Just for the record, that one came in a plastic case w/ J-card insert because it was actually a cassette maxi-single (i.e., 12" vinyl equivalent), and priced accordingly when you bought it (probably $4.99-$5.99); there was no regular cassette single issued (i.e., 7" vinyl equivalent)...

BTW, great to see you posting pics of your collection!

Only issued as a maxi single, okay, great info. I've been wondering about this one, because it's an RIAA-certified Platinum million-seller. It was issued as a CD maxi single also with the same track lineup.
