The song "Who Am I" by Snoop Dogg is a classic West Coast gangsta rap anthem released in 1993. The song begins with Snoop Dogg introducing himself and his crew, the Dogg Pound, and boasting of their greatness. The chorus repeats the question "What's my motherfuckin' name?" repeatedly establishing Snoop Dogg as one of the biggest names in rap at the time. The lyrics describe Snoop Dogg's drug dealing past, his defiance of authority, and his association with the Dogg Pound and Dr. Dre. The lyrics also detail his interest in women, with references to his sexual prowess and desire for large-breasted women.
The song's beat is built around a sample of "Atomic Dog" by George Clinton, giving the song its distinctive funk feel. The lyrics are packed with rhymes and wordplay, demonstrating Snoop Dogg's cleverness as an MC. The chorus has become one of the most iconic in rap music, and Snoop Dogg's laidback flow and distinctive voice have become synonymous with West Coast hip hop.
