Dillinger, like many of his peers, signed record deals with Death Row after being introduced to Dr. Dre by Warren G just as Dre began recording his seminal 1992 album, The Chronic. Dillinger contributed to The Chronic as well as his cousin Snoop Doggy Dogg's multi-platinum Doggystyle , Tupac Shakur's All Eyez on Me and the majority of the label's multi-platinum releases.
He released his first album Dogg Food with Kurupt as Tha Dogg Pound which went multi-platinum continuing Death Row's force as the most successful hiphop label. After Dr. Dre left the label, Daz became Death Row's main producer and was largely involved in Snoop's sophomore album Tha Doggfather and various compilations and soundtracks. After the death of Tupac Shakur, the departures of Snoop Dogg, Kurupt, Nate Dogg and the imprisonment of label CEO Suge Knight, Daz was the only major artist left on Death Row and mainly responsible for the work done in the label. In 1998 he released his solo-offering Retaliation, Revenge and Get Back for the first time using the more commercial-friendly artist name Daz Dillinger and even though the album reached gold status it was considered to be a commercial failure for the still high standards established by Death Row's previous releases.
Around 2000 Daz left the crumbling Death Row records and started his own imprint DPG Recordz. He released his second solo-album 2000's R.A.W. independently. Although the album didn't reach the success of his Death Row releases the album gained cult status in the underground West Coast rap scene. After that, Daz has kept on his business as CEO of his record label and has released several EP's and LP's with his name.
In 2002 Daz and his long time friend Kurupt parted ways because the latter rejoined Death Row and Daz's "arch-enemy" Suge Knight. Since that Daz and Kurupt have each released several dis records aimed at each other.
On April 13, 2005, Daz reunited with Kurupt through the peace meeting labelled "Protect the West", in which several other West Coast rap icons united to put aside their differences in hope of succeeding together.
Daz released an album on Jermaine Dupri's So So Def label titled 'So So Gangsta ' which's was released September 12, 2006
Roll Wit' Us
Daz Dillinger Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Makin dollars, makin shit pop around here
Fiends, niggas and cops and gangbangers rule my block
My everyday life is crime, a 9-to-5 of slangin rocks
9 millimetres, .3-80's, AK's and Glocks
Clockin major knots, I sit back and I watch it clock
Watchin in anybody and any, wit every fuckin dime, every penny
What a pity how we live in the city
Developed the knack to kill and slang crack, huh
Smokin buddha's at a bomb orange buddha
Stabbin motherfuckers in the back in if they do ya
Roll wit niggas that's the same, roll around witta gang
Rollin to school my bang, bang, hang out
I'm sellin dope to strung-out fiends who always kept green
What's the American Dream? Makin makin money
keepin pistols and shit, 'cause ain't a damn thing funny
Niggas around my block be actin so crummy
Wit a little doe I maintain G's, status just to have it
Anything that I see it was my job just to have it
Sweepin down and sellin, where my homeboys live
Scoop 6-400, of that bomb smoked ass real
High, I can see the homeys pass by
We creep inside, lettin niggas know this Eastside
Now all my motherfuckin niggas they - ROLL WIT' US
And all my No Limit soldiers they - ROLL WIT' US
And all my Westside Connection niggas yo they - ROLL WIT' US
And all my Dogg Pound, niggas they - ROLL WIT' US
And all my niggas from Death Row - ROLL WIT' US
And all my Outlaw niggas they - ROLL WIT' US
And everybody round the neighbourhood - ROLL WIT' US
Say they ROLL WIT' US, I said they ROLL WIT' US
In the city it was about wreck
Where I stay the 'fluence is pursuin the life of a G
Totin weapons was my profession, my moms catch me
She beat me but it ain't teachin me no lessons of survivin
Diamonds investin, cars that's impressive
I'm slangin now, major 'caine now
Quarter P's and half pounds and whole pounds, ugh
All my life all I heard was gun sound
Age 13 I joined a major gang in Sittown
I got the hood tatted for life, anybody cross me
I will pay dearly from gun blastin, blood on the knife
To be a motherfuckin gangsta was all I wanted
Daz Dillinger out to make out wit a million dollars
Shot caught him plus ballin, I'm 17
In the hood, straight love me from them Gz to them fiends, huh
Small timin to big ballin
I moved up from some small shit to packin full clips
And everybody knew me all around the town
I'm layin punk motherfuckers down
Now all my niggas in Texas they - ROLL WIT' US
And all my niggas from Oklahoma they - ROLL WIT' US
All my niggas from Louisiana - ROLL WIT' US
And all my Bay Area niggas yo they - ROLL WIT' US
All my niggas in Chicago they - ROLL WIT' US
All my niggas in Seattle yo they - ROLL WIT' US
Everybody round the neighbourhood - ROLL WIT' US
Say they ROLL WIT' US, say they ROLL WIT' US
Get out the way if you ain't about paper, bustin on player haters
who think they can fade us, that's how the streets made us
Invincible, leavin the whole scene critical
Takin over your shit man that's the main principle
Here we go, here we are, niggas roll around in fancy cars
Fuckin rap stars, sellin weed and caviar
You think ya wasn't serious til y'all got blasted
Rollin wit them sucker ducks'll leave you in a casket
It's drastic to suicide, how we ride?
Jump out on yo ass within the blink of an eye
Cash money got me addicted, til worry niggas kick it
Good shit from bad shit, that's how we get Pacific
The G is for give me, the A is for anybody killin in this
for the niggas plus the G's we be gettin
All my motherfuckin niggas they - ROLL WIT' US
All my niggas from Long Beach - ROLL WIT' US
All my niggas from Compton - ROLL WIT' US
All my niggas from Pasadena they - ROLL WIT' US
All my niggas from Inglewood they - ROLL WIT' US
All my niggas from South Central yo they - ROLL WIT' US
All my niggas from Wotts yeah they - ROLL WIT' US
Say they ROLL WIT' US, say they ROLL WIT' US

So y'all can't stop this shit...

Back once again...Dat Nigga Daz, creepin and crawlin
Puttin somethin vicious up yo ass...yeah...
