What the ****?
As its more obviously Haloglobotribin than the fire is hot then you're saying that its not Snoop freestyling yeah?
It's a sample mate. It's not the same song, and anyone with ears can hear Dre's influence in the production.

As for whether Snoop is freestyling or not there is no real evidence to support or refute that theory, however given it's listed as a bonus track on the album and the way in which he is known to produce albums I'm happy enough to go with that.

A Sample???
Did you listen to it? Its the whole track, Dre didn't add a note.
Im not arguing that Dre is not the entire creative force behind Snoop and a host of other rappers btw, just he did nothing on Gz n Hustlas.

I listened to it several times just to be sure, as I knew you would. You are one of the most efficacious debaters in the song contest.

The most obvious difference is in the depth of the bassline. A trade mark of Dre's production and a key to the success of the "Beats By Dre" range.

Also listen again to the first 30 seconds. At the 16 second mark of the Snoop version you can hear the first of a few subtle additions Dre makes.

'Beats by Dre' are overpriced garbage.
The key to their success is mass marketing and the fact they look kinda cool in a minimalist way and the Klub Kardashian generation suck that shit up like nobodies business.

If you're talking about when the chorus kicks in Ill accept that there are a few additional notes in that but the rest of the track is just a straight loop.

That's just ignorant. I refuse to believe that you believe that

There is also that but so much more. Subtle, and a blatant rip off? yes Not the first time he's done it and it won't be the last.


2:10 should sound familiar and stupid people could make the mistake of calling it a straight loop, but you're not that guy? Right?

Strue. Whatever Beats headphones you buy you could get the same quality for less in a less marketed brand. Or you take the money you're about to spend and get better quality for the same price by buying something like Audio Technica

That's true now, but headphones wouldn't sound the way they do today without his influence.
