Sean Paul "We Be Burnin" - Which Version

Not sure which format board this one would be appropriate for, so I thought I'd make this a general post.

Name the stations in your area that are playing the original version and/or the radio edit.

Original version chorus:
"Everyday, we be burnin not concernin what nobody wanna say
We be earnin dollars turning cau we mind deh pon we pay
Some got gold and oil and diamonds, all we got is Mary J.
Legalize it, time to recognize it"

Radio edit chorus:
"Everyday, we be burnin not concernin what nobody wanna say
We be earnin dollars turning cau we mind deh pon we pay
More than gold and oil and diamonds - girls, we need dem everyday
Recognize it, we pimpin' as we ridin' "

In New York, I've heard the original version on Hot 97, while CC's Power 105.1 plays the edit during the day, and the original during "mix" shows. CC's Z100, of course, plays the edited version.<P ID="signature">______________

Well, it's not just available in my area, but I have always heard the original version - "legalize it" - on UPOP XM 29.

True, and 20 on 20 plays the censored version.

On terrestrial radio, I've only heard the original on Philadelphia's Wired 96.5. All of the other DC or Philadlephia CHRs, including Hot 99.5, Q102, PST, and WSTW play the censored version.
 
In Boston,Ma the original version was played on 88.9 WERS tonight,I heard the radio edit version on KISS 108 this morning.
