If the album was purchased in Canada, 'Walk In', 'Inside' and 'Walk Out' are recorded on a different instrumental, with slightly different lyrics. Also, 'Earthquake' is replaced by the song 'Crack Ya Bottle' by Lil Wayne featuring Reel, produced by the Architects. These changes are a result of sample clearance issues.
