Jay-Z - Ride or Die (feat Stevie J) (Rare Original Version) - 1998

[@SC-ez5xi]

Nothing crazy different from the final version except more Stevie J doing ad-libs through the verses and chorus. In the final he's just on the intro. Notice how Stevie J (the then bad boy producer) laughs after the "they get fucked for there publishing" line. makes those shots at Mase hit a litter harder haha.

After the the latest sexual allegations against Puff Daddy it makes you wonder what that line really meant.
