[edit] Third verse of music video

Does anyone know why the 3rd verse of the song in the music video is different from the original? --Ted87 03:57, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

It was very common for 2Pac to rewrite the explicit words on his singles that appeared on the radio. Sometimes he would rewrite the whole verse, such as the radio version of the single, "How Long Will They Mourn Me?" off his ThugLife album. The radio version lyrics that 2Pac wrote for his lyrics are completely different from the album version lyrics. Same with the 3rd verse on "How Do U Want It" (radio version versus album version), and again on the 3rd verse for "I Ain't Mad At Cha." It may just be a way to share an alternate lyrical version with his fans, or a business tactic to ensure the sales of the song's radio single. Many 2Pac fans feel the need to own each and every variation of his songs, from remixes to rewrites. It's a smart move... -Written by Djbroox-

[edit] Confusion within this page

Why does it say "Although a popular song in the US, it was never released as a single in the United States", and then go on to describe it as a single being released in the next paragraph?!? I believe this small bit of information should be rewritten or deleted. --Djbroox 02:45, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

It was released as a single in the United Kingdom. --Ted87 06:24, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
