In some cases to push the consumers into buying the vinyl or CD single, they would only include the edited version of the song on the album. Another example of this is the Big Pun hit "I Don't Wanna Be A Player (Remix) feat. Joe off of his debut album. ^^The way I understand it… record labels would normally release a single/EP on vinyl for the DJs to play that included the explicit versions of the track.

Just one of those thing, i like how the first few beeps on ODB verse kind of fit! === Not sure why exactly. The rest of the cd is loaded with cussing. Maybe that track was for the radio back then and they didn't bother taking off the edits for the album. >>Why?? Just one of those thing, i like how the first few beeps on ODB verse kind of fit!
