Hi, if anyone knows this song pretty well, I have a few questions. So I understand that the song is about Warren G and Nate Dogg being companions who are enjoying a night out looking for ladies (aka "skirts") and one in particular night Nate Dogg gets brutally assaulted. Thankfully Warren G stumbles upon his bestie just in time to commit multiple homicides. What I don't quite understand is once Warren G returns with Nate Dogg to the group of women who apparently drive worse than I do, and they women are willing to exchange sex for a car ride, the song says "one of them dames was sexy as hell"... So who got to have the sexy dame? Did Warren and Nate share her? If so, what were the unattractive women doing at this time? Did they ever get back to their car that hit the curb? It's illegal to leave an inoperable car on the road. I bet they had a big fine. Also, what does this song have to do with regulation?
In the SOURCE Magazine's disc review, there was no photo of Snoop Dogg's face, so instead, it seems that the writer drew a poor likeness of Snoop Dogg by hand.
Have you seen it?
I've always wanted to see that poorly drawn portrait.
When I first heard A Day Late and a Dollar Short, it quickly became a top 10 album for me. This album is hardly ever mentioned or talked about in underground g-funk records.
Pimp and Players is easily the best song off the record too.
BOW DOWN x RAP SUPERSTAR
Westside Connection / Cypress Hill
Some time in the 00s in my teenage years a mysterious .mp3 found it's way onto my mp3 player, and it went hard.
Now, long lost to time I've tried multiple times to find it online over the years and it seems to literally not exist. Did it ever exist? Did my brain merge these two epic songs together? Is it all just a figment of my imaginatio0on?
I swear I remember it more vividly than the two originals; which is pretty backwards considering how huge each song is respectively
It starts as Rap Superstar with the intro and first chorus but B Reals verses are switched with Bow Down's
"SO YOU WANNA BE A RAP SUPERSTAR, AND LIVE LARGE, A BIG HOUSE, 5 CARS, YOU'RE IN CHARGE
COMING UP IN THE WORLD DON'T TRUST NOBODY, GOTTA LOOK OVER YOUR SHOULDER CONSTANTLY---"
and then immediately into
"THE WORLD IS MINE NIGGA GET BACK (UHH!)"
(As for the beat, it blurs together. Literally feels like if I remember it using one or the other it just sounds the same??)
PLEASE, PLZ PLZ PLZ, Someone know of/confirm this for me! You would literally be a legend
Or i'll have to go back to imagining this non-existant materpiece in my head in solitude for the rest of my life
