   WWKX Providence and WJMN Boston always played the Puff Daddy Radio Mix.  In 1995 CHR was split into the middle between pop and rhythmic.  My heritage station WPRO FM Providence didn't even 

play it at all.

	My copy of the Puff Daddy Radio Mix runs 3:52. Does the 3:56 entry in the database fade out later or does it run slower?

	I took a couple trips to Boston in the late 90s and listened to Jammin'. They were still spinning the PD Radio Mix in '99 and '00.

	For the first two weeks of its chart run on the Hot 100, the producer was shown as "Prince Rakeem". One of the songwriters was listed as "R. Diggs". On the unnumbered promo CD mentioned by both Aaron and Ed, the producer of both the "Razor Sharp Radio Mix" and the "LP Radio Mix" is given as "The Rza". "Prince Rakeem", "R. Diggs", and "The Rza" are all the same person. Starting with the third week of its chart run and for the remainder of its 20-week stay on the Hot 100, the producer credit was listed as "Prince Rakeem, S. Combs". This describes only the "Puff Daddy" mixes. Sean "Puff Daddy" Combs had nothing to do with any of the "Razor Sharp" or "LP" versions/mixes. Although this song reached number 3 on the Hot 100, it was never a major pop radio hit, only reaching number 33 in Top 40 airplay.
