Basically, J. Flexx wrote the lyrics, Sam Sneed produced the beat and sold it to Dre for 20000$, so he can tweak it a little bit, mix it and go platinum plus :)

Come on now. Dr. Dre produced it ;)

If that's what you think, then so be it - the truth is Sam produced the OG version and sold it to Dre for 20k :)

Yes and dre paid 100000000$ for daz beats on the chronic.

"Keep their heads ringin" wasn't terrible lyrically, it just had some lines which were suspect and borderline corny, other than that I agree Flexx was a pretty good writer...

Def a corny track. Dre is carried by the production and arrangement.

lyrics are bordeline corny indeed. but it's not terrible, dre flows well on the track, overall a classic track.

J-Flexx calls Dre out on this track about the tracks he wrote and did not get paid properly for...not sure how true it all is though

"i use Crest, so aint no cavity creeps in my grill"



yes, that line shits on what Nas or Big L were writing at the time

Dre's metaphors are metaphives to Infinite

"Still, niggaz run up and try to kill at will
But get popped like a pimple, so call me Clearasil"  ::)
i don´t need any medicate shit im 100 normal.

Ow this hurts! I've always considered it the best song ever written. And I feel like the reason Jay Z is on top is because he remade it time and time again. That's a blueprint for how to make a lyrical track a hit. Jay did that over and over and over. "I grab the mic/ and flick my tongue like dyke/ I got rhymes to keep you enchanted/ Produce a smoke screen with the funky green to keep your eyes slanted... Step on stage and get faded just like a flat top...I rock from summer 'til Santa comes down the chimney"...

Different school of thought I guess. Many songs sound like they borrow from here; punchline after punchline..Yeah some are almost corny but look at what Eminem gets praised for.

Even thinking that some of those punchlines are only ALMOST corny, "best song ever written" might be just a tad too over-enthusiastic.
