- The version of "Get the Party Started" is a remix by Rockwilder using elements of the Eurythmics song "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)" and featuring rapper Redman, instead of the much more popular original version which was a hit in the United States (and continues to be popular and air on mainstream radio stations to this day).
- The album version of "Ain't It Funny" is included, despite not being released as a single in the United States. The "Murder Remix" featuring Ja Rule is the version of the song released as a single (and subsequently reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100) in the US.
- The version of the Trackmasters remix of "Caramel" removes the third verse and goes straight from Ortiz's second verse to Eve's rap.
- The album version of "Turn Off the Light" by Nelly Furtado is included over the popular remix featuring Ms. Jade and Timbaland.
