Snoop Dogg confirms Jay-Z wrote full ‘Still D.R.E.’ by Dr. Dre: “JAY-Z wrote Dre’s bad things and my bad things and it was perfect”

Carter launches into a discussion on how Hov wrote the Bugs Bunny rhyme for the original Space Jam soundtrack, and he mentions Dr. Dre’s debut single off his iconic 1999 album 2001, “Still D.R.E.”

Hov remembers, “I’m doing Dre and Snoop’s vocals on that reference track.” “The reference track has their sound to it.” That Foxy (Brown) reference, I’m relieved no one can locate. However, you must regard them with some reverence. 

Of course, the music that The Chronic and others were producing… I needed to have a kind of studied regard for what Dre and Snoop were doing in order for me to truly capture their spirit. to even imagine myself in their position. Make you consider that record. That song is released following Dre’s departure from Deаth Row. My most recent record was The Chronic
