Doja Clik - Speed Kills Re-Issue?
- Thread starter Psychocialman
- Start date
wow, i didn't realize there were 2 versions of this either. Mine is the CMC ringcode. But i'm not sure if it's the OG cause I got it recently. I usually have a good eye for ringcodes and this does look like a 97 ringcode to me.
However, the ASR ringcode could also be the OG. This is because it is a similar ringcode to the Street Thugs OG cd which has a ringcode starting with:
ASR#12320-1(CD-SPR-001-2/
Hopefully somebody can clear this up.

The Best of CD did get released but I think the quanities were very limited...got one from my homeboy in Stockton who got it direct from Ren. Includes tracks off all 3 of their unreleased albums too. I'll check my Speed Kills ringcode tonight....have owned my copy since '99 but you may be right about 2 pressings from the start. I also have 2 different codes on Hollow Tip Takin No Shortz OG's that I've always been curious about.
^^ yea i got two different copies of the hollow tip -flawless as well. both og releases but i'm sure there were just two different pressings for it because the flawless that's available now is on i believe mercenary ent or somethin like that. didn't know there was two different copies for takin no shortz. i'm sure mine is the og because i had that one for hella hella years. i gotta peep mine out.
that's crazy about the best of doja tho. didn't know it was that rare. what year did it come out?

Brought in my "Best Of" CD today and was released on Heatrock Records in 2006. It's a real pressed CD with full color print on the disc itself and inserts.
Selling it on iTunes but they have it listed as 2005...think that is a typo.

The artwork is identical but looks to be printed by 2 different manufactures. The top version has much sharper coloring and is cropped about a centimeter larger but you can tell the other version is not a scan and reprint job...both legit releases. Anybody know more?
A few years back I picked up another copy of RBL Lesson To be Learned because I thought it was OG and only like $5. Took it home and compared it to my copy I've owned pre Ruthless By Law and noticed it was different. I scanned them both when I first noticed and have been meaning to post them...I'm sure the top (my original) is the OG but thought it was interesting and worth posting for others to see. This all may be common knowledge but was news to me...lol.

My copy of Lesson to be Learned is similar to the 1st one you posted, but has a different ringcode:
Probably a second pressing or something...

All the early Rainbow presses (like the OG 40 & Click stuff) look like the the top one I have w/ pressing date so it may be the 1st pressing. Who really cares tho...as long as it's on In-A-Minute it's OG enough for me...lol.
