MC ReN`s "FoRGeT WHaT Ya HeaRD" [12 iNCH]...


Here`s a 12 inch that I wanted to share with y`all from N.W.A.`s MC Ren titled "Forget What Ya Heard". It was released by Ruthless Records back in 1994 & all 3 tracks were produced by Dr. Jam, while Mike Sims rocks the guitar on the first 2 joints. Apparently this 12 inch is actually a pretty rare find, luckily for me I was able to get a rip from the homie Jsta before his blog died. I found that the volume of the files however were a bit on the low side so I adjusted them & BuMP`d it up a bit...



 



A few lil` things to note about this single, on "Fuck What Ya Heard" there`s some gun shots that start a lil` after the beginning of the track which were omitted from the "Forget What Ya Heard" version. You can also clearly hear that both A1 & A2 were recorded during different sessions & years....LoL, on "Forget What Ya Heard" Ren spits "In `94 you know it`s on you can forget what ya heard, I`m droppin` plenty bombs like as if I was a bird"... While on "Fuck What Ya Heard" he spits "In `93 I`m wreckin` shit so you can fuck what ya heard, I`m droppin` plenty shit like a mother fuckin` bird"...



Aside from sightly changing up the lyrics for a radio version of a song things usually stay pretty close to the album version, that`s why I found it a lil` interesting that MC Ren would switch up the years in the lyrics from 1993 in the album version to 1994 on the edited version. Obviously the edited version was recorded later on.....LoL, but you can also notice if you listen close enough that on "Fuck What Ya Heard" MC Ren sounds as if he`s slightly closer to the mic than when he was when he recorded "Forget What Ya Heard". MC Ren get much props for re~working his lyrics on "Forget What Ya Heard" so you can still enjoy it without any annoying censorship, like the classic beeps or what have you....LoL, "Mayday On The Front Line" is slightly different than the version that appeared on the "CB4 Soundtrack", but it`s still DoPe. So go `head & check it out...
