    My version of the 12" looks very much like this one, but it has a "recycled recyclable" logo in the bottom left corner on the back, anyone know about this version?

      No comments on this 12"? The "Native Tongue" version is so much better/different than the LP version, it might as well be a different song entirely. One of the best late 80's 12" singles of this particular era of hip-hop.
