Taking Sides: Ragga Reyes - "El Papichulo" vs Lorna "Papichulo"

Ragga Reyes has the real actual Deee-Lite sample so has the cool-sample grin factor but it's shorter and Lorna's one has crasser noises and sounds dirtier, also the bassline goes quite intriguing places in trying not to be Deee-Lite. WHICH TO PICK? I think Lorna.

wait, Lorna's version hasn't got the actual Deee-Lite sample?!? b-but i thought it did! there's quite a few versions of Lorna's "Papichulo" floating around - my fave is the one that lasts about four and a half minutes, the last minute or so is a rewind, probably done by some DJ - basically it's got this terrific raunchy part where she raps very fast with the bear beat and bass pulse. I haven't found that bit on other versions, so...

in comparison, the Ragga Reyes version sounds slack and puny (admittedly, i've heard it only once or twice)

sorry, BARE beat!

Well the version I downloaded is 3 minutes, no mention of mixing, and it sounds like the Deee-Lite bit is being replayed slightly different - on the Ragga Reyes it's unmistakably them.
