It's all good. But to elaborate on the versions of Thug Luv:

Thug Luv OG, commonly mistakenly referred to as Thug Luv 3 by bootleggers and what not (since it was the third version to really hit the scene) includes two verses by Bizzy Bone, one verse by 2Pac and one verse by Sylk-E-Fine with the OG beat. Bizzy's first verse starts off with "Well look at the thugs that Mama gave up on..." and his second verse is from the retail release where he goes "Well it must be close to the Armageddon..."
Thug Luv II includes two verses by Bizzy Bone, one verse by Layzie Bone and one verse by 2Pac. If I remember correctly (since I was a very big fan of both artists at the time), this was the first version to leak on the internet in small parts in .wav files (since .mp3s were out but hadn't started circulating on as nearly as large of a scale just months later).
Thug Luv (retail version) is the version that appears on The Art of War. However, the first version of this that I got my hands on (probably around two weeks before The Art of War was released) was slightly different... maybe a line or two of Wish Bone's verse was different.

Feel free to correct any errors (if you really know what you are talking about if you were actually staying up-to-date in '96-'97, not just if you heard something from a friend who read online two months ago that blah blah blah), but I'm pretty certain that I'm pretty fucking accurate since I was watching the scene back then for both artists.

the slightly different retail version you speak of is the special edit from vinyl promo.

also noteworthy is the clean version, available on assorted edited bone cd's, which does not contain the gunshots in the instrumental.

Now that I think about it, the version that I had was edited. I'm assuming that you have this. I haven't heard the song since around the time The Art of War came out (when I was only 14 or so and kept everything at where my parents used to live), but in that version, does Wish Bone go "somebody's waaaaatching meee" in the lines that are different from the retail version? (My memory is a bit hazy since I haven't listened to that version in close to nine years and since then I have misplaced it, but I think it replaces Wish Bone's retail lyrics where he goes "Fuck with me, I'll be seen in the moonlight/ Lookin' for you, for you, better run for cover, nigga duck".) And also, I remember the way he said "flowers" ("Send flowers to his home/ Send a card to his mama, tell her he was dead wrong") was a bit different when comparing the two versions.

I remember before The Art of War dropped, there were rumors of Afeni requesting that the gunshots be removed from the song... was there any truth to that?
