I like both versions. The original has Dr Dre; his verses were apparently written by Eminem; rapping way better than he could on his own. The same can be said for the sequel, on which his part is (apparently) penned by Rakim who follows with a brilliant verse of his own. Jay-Z, whose song it really is, also steps his skills up for what is easily one of his best.
The fact that Jay-Z’s verse is longer than his collaborators; Dre and Rakim stick to the standard sixteen bars as they all should’ve; stands as one of two notable flaws on the otherwise superior and more dynamic sequel. The other flaw has to do with Truth Hurts’ chorus, which is better than the original, being followed by the original instead of being left alone.
my vote : ?
