Toss It Up was by Danny Boy and Jodeci. Pac just got on the track..... Dre did the beat for Blackstreets "No Diggity" while he was still at Death Row. Dre sold it to Teddy Riley. Which is why the beginning of those songs where almost exactly the same.
-
Also why Pac's ranting on about "you know whose beat this is - yeah we took y'all beat" at the end.
And why Pac assembled his own "all-star" line up of R&B heads for the track. It's not a coincidence that Aaron Hall was on that track ;)

Dre * didnt * produce the blackstreet track, he just rapped on it. Teddy Riley produced the song.
Popular misconception ;)

Shit, thats weird, i could've sworn on the cover of the single it says Dre produced it, i'll have a look around & see if I still have it around. Not doubting you 'seer, its probably a miss print if it is on there

Probably says "featuring".. the producer rarely gets a mention on the cover..

Talking about Pac and Blackstreet beats, does anyone have the story on why the beats for I Ain't Mad At Cha and Dont Leave Me are almost identical ???
-
Well, The outlaws say in the new XXL that Toss it Up is their least favourite song on Makeveli cuz it was a song Dre had already produced while still on Deathrow, and the cut featured Danny Boy and Jodeci only. They say when Dre left e sold the beat to Teddy Riley, and then featured on the song. So who knows if Dre actually produced No Diggity or not...

They sampled the same song. I forgot the name of it though.

Nah, it was on the back of it, you know how on the old cardboard singles they had credits at the back of the cover

Toss It Up doesn't sample any song.
-
Weird.. well orginally I thought for a long time that Dre produced it, but I noticed he hadnt in the liner notes of the album itself, so I know i'm right, because I know I was wrong :)
oh and I could be wrong here, but i'm pretty sure Teddy Riley has commented on the issue, and it seems Dre might have tried to take some credit for it or something, i've definitely read something like that.

Yeah, but "I Ain't MAd At Cha" samples a song.

According to the All Eyez On Me inlay it doesn't.

You're saying Dre tried to take the credit for a song he didn't really produce?
Why would you say something that vicious?
;)
Oh yeah, I'm pretty sure the 'I Ain't Mad Atcha' / 'Don't Leave' sample is from an old Teddy Pendergrass tune.
-
I remember Dre was being interviewed around that time and he was congratulated for No Diggity and he said that "Teddy Hooked it". I assume that was his way of saying that Teddy Riley produced it.
-
Yeah, but "I Ain't MAd At Cha" samples a song.
They used a part of DeBarge's "A Dream". Dope song! ;D
-
Shit, I always thought that Dre produced 'No diggity' until I looked at the linear notes and saw Teddy Riley's name there. But like teecee said, the Outlawz said in XXL that Dre already produced the beat, but then sold it.

didnt anyone read this, this is comin from the outlawz mouth who were there during the recording of makaveli,, also no diggity samples a song called "grandma's hands"
-

Then why doesn't it say that in the AEOM inlay??

Although I ain't sure of the tracc they sampled, you can clearly tell that both "I Ain't Mad At'Cha" and "Don't Leave" have the same basic beat.
-
That's probably coincidence. Compare Richie Rich's Why Do G's Get To Go To Heaven and TQ's Keep On for example. The credits of Keep On don't mention any sample...
-
No, MEACH AND REGGIE MOORE produced it.
