Nuthin But a 'G' Thang 1992
Dr Dre feat Snoop Dog Lyrics

One, two, three and to the four
Let's count this off, we're about to get started

Snoop Doggy Dogg and Dr. Dre is at the door
The two famous rappers have arrived

Ready to make an entrance, so back on up
We're eager to perform, step aside

('Cause you know we're 'bout to rip shit up)
(Because our performance is going to be intense and amazing)

Gimme the microphone first, so I can bust like a bubble
I want to go first so I can make a big impact with my rhymes

Compton and Long Beach together, now you know you in trouble
Two infamous neighborhoods are united, you're going to be in awe

Ain't nothin' but a G thang, baby
This is just a small example of gangster behavior

Two loc'ed out niggas, so we're crazy
We're two crazy individuals who are passionate about our music

Death Row is the label that pays me
Our successful record label is what provides us with income

Unfadeable, so please don't try to fade this (hell yeah)
We're going to last a long time, don't try to doubt us

But, uh, back to the lecture at hand
But before we continue, let's stay on topic

Perfection is perfected, so I'ma let 'em understand
We've perfected our craft and want to share our knowledge with others

From a young G's perspective
Let's view things from a young gangster's point of view

And before me dig out a bitch, I have to find a contraceptive
Before I sleep with a woman, I need to make sure protection is used

You never know, she could be earnin' her man
She could be cheating on her partner or using me for her own gain

And learnin' her man, and at the same time burnin' her man
She could be playing both sides and causing drama and conflict

Now you know I ain't with that shit, Lieutenant
I'm not interested in that kind of trouble or drama

Ain't no pussy good enough to get burnt while I'm up in it
No amount of sex is worth getting an STI or causing drama in someone else's relationship

(Yeah) And that's realer than Real-Deal Holyfield
I'm being serious, this isn't a joke or exaggeration

And now you hookers and hoes know how I feel
Prostitute and promiscuous women now understand my perspective

Well, if it's good enough to get broke off a proper chunk
If the sex is good enough to justify cheating or causing conflict, then maybe it's worth it

I'll take a small piece of some of that funky stuff
I'm interested in a small taste of whatever is on offer

It's like this and like that and like this and uh
I'm going to continue with my flow and make rhymes

It's like that and like this and like that and uh
My rhyming pattern is consistent and unrelenting

Dre, creep to the mic like a phantom
Dr. Dre is approaching the microphone in a mysterious way

Well, I'm peepin' and I'm creepin' and I'm creepin'
I'm being sneaky and stalking the scene as I approach the microphone

But I damn near got capped 'cause my beeper kept beepin'
I almost got shot because my pager wouldn't stop alerting me

Now it's time for me to make my impression felt
It's my turn to make a strong impact with my rhymes

So sit back, relax, and strap on your seatbelt
Just enjoy the ride and prepare to be amazed

You never been on a ride like this before
You've never experienced anything like this performance

With a producer who can rap and control the maestro
I'm a producer who can not only rap but also control the music

At the same time with the dope rhyme that I kick
I'm capable of delivering awesome rhymes while controlling the music

You know and I know, I flow some ol' funky shit
We both know that my rhymes and beats are amazing and unique

To add to my collection, the selection
To improve and diversify my music collection

Symbolizes dope, take a toke, but don't choke
This music represents greatness, so enjoy it but don't overdo it

If you do, you'll have no clue
If you take it too far, you won't be able to keep up or handle it

Of what me and my homie Snoop Dogg came to do
You won't fully grasp the greatness of our performance

It's like this
This is how it is

And who gives a fuck about those?
We don't care what anyone else thinks

So just chill 'til the next episode
Relax and wait for our next amazing performance

Fallin' back on that ass with a hellified gangsta lean
Relaxing and leaning back in a gangster way

Gettin' funky on the mic like a old batch of collard greens
Making a good impression with rhymes that are fresh and cool

It's the capital S, oh, yes, I'm fresh, N-double-O-P
Snoop Dogg has a unique and fresh style, represented by the letter S and his name

D-O-double-G-Y, D-O-double-G, ya see
Snoop Dogg's name is spelled out, showing his unique persona

Showin' much flex when it's time to wreck a mic
Snoop Dogg shows off his skills when it's time to perform

Pimpin' hoes and clockin' a grip like my name was Dolomite
Snoop Dogg likes to live the life of a pimp, making money and having control

Yeah, and it don't quit
This rhythm and performance is going to keep going and be amazing

I think they in the mood for some motherfuckin' G shit (hell yeah)
I think the audience is ready for some hardcore gangster behavior

So, Dre (what up, Dog?)
Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg are communicating and getting ready to perform together

Gotta give 'em what they want (what's that, G?)
We need to give the audience exactly what they're seeking

We gotta break 'em off somethin' (hell yeah)
We need to give them something they've never seen or heard before

And it's gotta be bumpin' (city of Compton)
The performance needs to be lively and energetic (Compton is known for its gangster culture)

Is where it takes place, so when asked, yo' attention
The performance is happening in Compton, so pay attention

Mobbin' like a motherfucker, but I ain't lynchin'
We're moving and performing like gangsters, but not committing any violent acts

Droppin' the funky shit that's makin' the sucker niggas mumble
Our music is so amazing that it's leaving the audience speechless

When I'm on the mic, it's like a cookie, they all crumble
When I perform, everyone is in awe and can't resist being amazed

Try to get close and your ass'll get smacked
Don't try to get too close or you'll get physically hurt

My motherfuckin' homie Doggy Dogg has got my back
My partner, Snoop Dogg, is always there to support and protect me

Never let me slip, 'cause if I slip, then I'm slippin'
Snoop Dogg is always there to prevent me from making mistakes or slipping up

But if I got my Nina, then you know I'm straight trippin'
If I have my gun, I'm confident and ready for anything

And I'ma continue to put the rap down, put the mack down
I'm going to keep delivering amazing performances and living the gangster lifestyle

And if you bitches talk shit, I'll have to put the smack down
If anyone talks badly about me or my music, I'll show them who's boss

Yeah, and you don't stop
This performance isn't letting up anytime soon

I told you I'm just like a clock when I tick and I tock
I'm methodical and consistent in my performance like a clock ticking and tocking

But I'm never off, always on to the break of dawn
I never stop, I keep going nonstop until the morning

C-O-M-P-T-O-N, and the city they call Long Beach
Compton and Long Beach are the cities we represent

Puttin' the shit together
We're bringing our music and culture together

Like my nigga D.O.C., "No One Can Do It Better"
Like our friend D.O.C.'s music, there's no one who can perform like us

Like this, that and this and uh
We're adding more rhymes and verses to create a memorable performance

You've got the feelin'
We're appealing to the audience's emotions and making them feel something

Rock the other side
Let's move on to the next performance and blow them away too

You've got the feelin' (yeah, yeah)
We're confident that the audience loves what we're doing and feeling it
