What Was The Best Version Of You're All I Need?

[Punch]

Whoa.

The bad boy version has meth sounding like lil cease or will smith.

Explain please.

[Kanha]

Album version was horrible. Outdated synths and drums.
I always liked the razor sharp version the most, it was hard-hitting and raw.. always felt Bad Boy remix was ehh.. but nowadays when I listen to it, I learned to realize that it's a hit! It's simplistic, clean, radio friendly, and that drumbreak is kinda lively! Meth truly sounds more alive on the puffy version. Although I loved that dirty guitar riff/melody on razor sharp, "duunnn dun dunnnn dunn", I feel that not everybody who doesn't like hiphop might stand it through the entire song.. Badboy did that remix good, it's timeless..

I'd rather have Razor Sharp version playing in the hood, around the homies.. and the Bad boy version in the clubs..

i like the original version

Explain please.

Meth sounded too polished on that version. Even the way he rapped on it was totally different from the raspy, fierce, dusty, let me stop to suck my spit back in to finish the verse, flow. It was much more of a softer sounding flow for the bad boy mix...reminds me of a Lil Cease 'crush on you' flow.
If you listen to Puffy's mix you shouldn't have to go past where Meth says '...But you did, now i'm going...' to see where i'm coming from

Shifter's cousin Karceno talks about it here;

[hotnikks]

[JZA/Jordon]

Razor Sharp Version, if there's a "Wu" sound - This beat was it. One of RZA's best of all time in my opinion
