Lyrics

Parts of the song are reminiscent of the earlier song, "Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang", and has a part where Snoop Dogg parodies a part of the song with the lyrics from Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang, "Death Row is the label that pays me" is recited, but replaced with "No Limit is the label that pays me", to update his new record label, No Limit Records and other parts of the song contain subtle references to "Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang".[1][2]
