Title: who's Daz talking about in "What It Iz" ?
Post by: WestCoasta on September 01, 2005, 03:47:15 PM
I kinda have an idea but it seems like he's addressing multiple people, who is he specifically talkin to?

^^^ I know Snoop was one of em, but in "R.A.W" feat. Kurupt, at the end he says "y'all lucky Simon ain't home" why would they say that if they didn't like Suge

Snoop, Kurupt and Suge..................... :-X :-\

I think the whole last verse is aimed at Snoop, he says, "Long Beach, have u forget'n where u from, Eastside Long Beach represent 21". He also says, "That pimp shit dont impress nor phase me". But then he says, "All that fuckin' work I did for yall and yall cant pay me". Dont get this line! Did Daz not get paid his full dues for his work on "Chronic" or "Doggystyle" or "Dogg Food" or another Death Row or Snoop album?! Or after Daz got outta Death Row did he want to sign wit Snoop and Snoop wouldnt sign him!? Or he talkin' bout Suge not payin' him at Death Row?? But he says, "All that fuckin' work I did for "YA'LL" and "YA'LL" cant pay me". Suge is just one person! Got me wonderin!!!

Also, at the very end of the 2nd verse,  he says, "Its a must that I diss u niggaz back, plus the video talkin' all that smack". Who he talkin' bout made a video talkin' smack!? "Death Row Uncut" made by Suge.!?

^^^ yeah that makes sense, but like you said, there's a lot of shit I don't understand

definitely about Snoop, that's a given, cuz they were fighting at that time, might have been also about Suge? I don't know

it can't be at all about Kurupt cuz he's featured on "On Tha Grind", "R.A.W.", "Feels Good", and "My System" and had a little bit on "I'd Rather Lie 2 Ya" and he's on the picture with Daz on the back of the booklet....... so that's not directed towards Kurupt at all

and what fuckin video is he talking about?  ???

I guess he's talkin' bout the "Death Row Uncut DVD" that Suge made.

Was Kurupt back wit Tha Row when this song was made?

plus Kurupt was on multiple tracks on "R.A.W."

My bad, I had totally forgot it was on R.A.W., just had it on my hard-drive on my computer.

I wonder what he meant then when he said, "all that work I did for "ya'll" and ya'll" cant pay me"....?
At first I thought he meant Suge, but he talkin' bout more than 1 person........ :-\

This shit is gonna fuck wit me!!!  :-\

That's what I know:
I think What It Iz was recorded around the time RR&GB came out. In 1998 XXL article about Daz says he has a 6-song/6-video project called What It Iz in the works to be released on Death Row. So I doubt he'd talking about Suge in the song and at that time.
In the same article they ask him if he'd ever work with Dre again and he says: "If he pays me, cause he still owes me." So I'm pretty sure he's talking about Dre in the song.
Who else? No idea. Snoop maybe.

I definitely heard he was talkin about Snoop. But hmm....possibly Dre too? We all know they haven't really been cool since the Dogg Food era, and it's always rumors that Daz was doin beats for him, so maybe he didn't get paid for those and he was talkin about Dre. If not just Suge, then maybe Suge and whoever else was in charged of business.

Yea, I was thinkin' that too maybe aimed at Snoop, Dre, and Suge. Maybe talkin' bout Dre and Suge not payin' him while doin' the beats for Death Row.

if it's also about Dr. Dre it does make sense "all the fuckin work I did for y'all and y'all can't pay me"

and stop saying it's about Snoop!  we already figured that shit out, it's the most obvious thing..... it's been mentioned like 10 times already  :laugh:
