"Shoop" Salt-N-Pepa

Couldn't find a thread for this song...

Does the Album Version of "Shoop" found on the A-side of the US cassette single release (857 314-4) match the one found on the US CD maxi-single?

I ask because, on the maxi CD, Album Version actually isn't the exact version found on parent album Very Necessary, but rather a censored version where the word "retard" during the male rap is replaced with a record scratch.

Thanks, Ed!

Thanks, aaronk... I swear I did searches both here and via google and ABSOLUTELY NOTHING would come up, otherwise I wouldn't have started a new thread.

Just now, the only thread that shows up when I look for "Shoop" (typed alone even) is this one started just about 24 hours ago.

Thanks for bringing the previous topics to the top, even if now I do feel a bit *RECORD SCRATCH*ed

I seem to recall Casey's Top 40 playing that version, and I know they used HitDisc for a lot of their music. We used quite a few HitDiscs on the air, too, but we didn't play "Shoop" from that disc. Our source was from a Hitmakers CD, which used the single version (LP with "retard" censored).

Here are the details of my promo CD single:

CDP 1025
