I don't what ya'll hearing but the lyrics in all that shit sounds next level to me... especially tracks like "Heads Ringin" and "Natural Born Killaz"


there was a thread on the coli breakin down how corny the lyrics were, it became a running joke

some that stood out:

It's the D-R-E the spectacular
In a party I go for your neck, so call me "Blacula"

niggas run up and try to kill at will
But get popped like a pimple, so call me Clearasil

When I rock the spot with the flavor I got
I get plenty of ass, so call me an ass-tronaut

Your rhyme sounds like you bought 'em at Stop 'n Go
Dre came to wax you so, just call me Mop and Glo



LOL






personally, i never had a problem with the lyrics... but i think calling them "next level" is a bit of a stretch, to say the least... it was the production that made the song, first second and third.

I thought the lyrics were pretty cringe myself when I really sat down and read them lol...but I never noticed them all the years I listened to the track because Dre delivered them so confidently 

that and the beat makes it a 10/10 track

Well, song was made for a comedy movie sound-track unless Cube just heard and chose it, what a great west-coast soundtrack that was compiled..should of been all rap though...title track also ignited the Cypress beef.

''Buck-buck-buck-booyakasha!''

I think i have heard Krs-1 vocals sampled on hip hop hooks/background more then any other rapper.

I don't get it then... because I remember when that track first dropped all I was used to hearing was gangsta lyrics from Death Row, so when he was spitting all those crazy metaphors it sounded so next level to me.

Then with the KRS sample obviously I had no idea that was a KRS one sample, but that was one of those things that was like a buzz word catch phrase at the jr. high lunch table, we had no idea what it was saying but we were just like "BUCK BUCK BUCK BUCK SLAM THAT SHOT"

It was just one of those legendary moments as a kid in the 80's and 90's when you used to hear about something by word of mouth before you actually got your hands on it and it just built up the hype and legend of the track.

Just sitting with my best friends at the lunch table and they are like, "Yeah the new Dre song, he's in an airplane" --- yeah and its like "BUCK BUCK SLAM THAT SHOT!!!  I know ya boppin your head, cause I can C ya, you can't C me!"

ohh man life was never better, so I don't care what anyone says those are some of the best vocal rap solo performance in rap history and someone agrees with me cause it one Source Awards or Grammy Awards for best rap solo in 95 when everyone was in their prime

btw..I just found out a few days ago the hole song is a metaphor for getting head

Dre is a great rapper, probably over shadowed by his production. Better than Game though? Nah, I just don't see it.

The best and most popular west coast rappers are Dre, Snoop, PAC and Kendrick. Thats the rappers i know you still hear on the radio, The youth listen 2 and the OGs. Game is dope but everybody thinks that hes hits are 50cent songs.

Dre could do no wrong in those days

what about Cube?

I agree about Game, he'll always have to carry around that his biggest hits were 50's...but as far as rapping goes I'd take Game over 50 in a battle 

Cube should be there.

I agree he should

You saying The DOC ain't a good (ghost)writer?

The Song was hot mainly because of the beat and the lyrics seemed dope Cruz of the confidence of dre spitting them
