This was my jam! The last time I ever really liked a song from a female rapper, though.

I like the original album version better though...

There are only 3 female rappers that I felt had that "fiyuh" - Lady of Rage, Nikki D, and Monie Luv. Sadly, none of them ever really panned out to their potential.

The Lady of Rage was one of the best freestyle rappers ever! I heard she's coming back to make new music... it was probably due to the unfortunate demise of Death Row Records that she didn't release a follow up to her debut album. Hopefully it all works out for her.

I had a cassingle with both versions of "Afro Puffs" on it so I like them equally as much. I don't even remember the names of the 2 main mixes.

There's one that has more sparse but menacing synths, and one with a Johnny Guitar Watson "Superman Lover" loop.

Yeah that joint is very hard to find...it's called "The Set Up" at the time when Death Row was preparing to release her album quite a few Hip Hop publications did reviews and had made mention of this song being on the album. However when the album was finally released the song was obviously canned and replaced with the "Get wit da wickedness(remix)". I have chatted with Nikki D. via Myspace and she did confirm it does in fact exist and that DJ Premier produced it.
