Em wrote that song for snoop and Dre. But when snoop heard him rap it, he immediately refused and said it sounded better than he could ever do it. That’s humility right there, cuz snoop was at his peak back then.
He most likely thought that the song wasn't in his style or image. The verse was all Eminem's personality. Snoop whole brand is weed. Though it would still sound dope if he spit it.

Dre never wrote songs for snoop, snoop wrote songs for Dre. Dre’s a producer and performer. That’s why the Chronic and 2000 album are full of features. He’s never been known for having songs where he raps the whole thing through without someone on it.
The song is a classic. I remember listening to this on the radio in middle school being amazed. All these years later, I still get the same feeling every time I hear it.
This song reminds me of Driving Pea Combines under a Starry Night at 2am in the early 2000s. That album was on high rotation on my diskman that summer.
Old Em's voice wakes up something inside!
Stop saying old Em bro the man is a freaking human his allowed to grow old too yk

Idk if this is just asvlittle known but Jayz actually wrote still dre
@@justinjoestar1902nope, it's pretty well known
im pretty sure almost everybody knows em wrote the whole shit

I thought you wrote love for his mother for a second 🤣🤣🤣

Specifically that 2nd Dre verse. I feel like every wanna be mumble rapper needs to hear that and know they are who Dre was referring to.

Perfect track in every way. Only Em and Dre could achieve this level of perfection.
How about the first chronic album?

@@scorpiocraze8995nothing from the East Coast touches it or even jives with it. East Coast just ain’t got that flavor the West brings.
It’s like Eminem jumped inside Dre’s brain to write this! One of the most OG fire hip hop tracks
Agreed.
Lol
Still a straight fckin banger. I never forgot about Dre or this fire ass track. Thanks Em.
This era of Em was just a different level of creative genius.. What a time.
I was living in it. Em's music where all around me, but it didn't hit me at first. It was later that I realised how important and good it was.

This was one of Dre's best tracks. I love the strings. Totally movie score feel. 👍👍👏

Masterpiece song🔥 eminem and dre were good together
The whole album banged don't make them like that anymore
This track still hits hard 🔥🔥🔥
The creativity, the lyrics, the flow.
So Sick
this is the testament that em really is a lyrical genius.
“hotter than a set of twin babies” 💀😭

Not only is he a fabulous lyricist, he recites letters not words to music. Every letter has a tone. Plus he can put a story together really well
I love listening to old em back when he didn’t care!
He did care just about diff things that's all
He still doesn't. That's why he's still setting standards and making mofo's think twice about stepping to him. Learn when to step back.
He still don't give a fuuuck lol
Eminem truly wrote a legendary song and no one gives him the credit
What are you talking about no one gave him the credit everyone saying he’s the number one rapper he already won
Only a stan will believe that the highest selling rapper doesn’t get enough credit
The guy is considered the greatest rapper alive by at least 90% of rap fans. And the ones that don't think so probably listen to drill rap

Honestly, based on how hard this song went, maybe it should be the new regular process for recording with Em.
Em's involvement in this track is pure chaos
Eminem said that he wrote this song with the flow from Jay-Z’s Jigga What, Jigga Who and had originally wanted Snoop Dogg to do the hook.
I GOTTA ADMIT THIS IS THE CLASSIC DOPENESS & I GOTTA GIVE EM CREDIT FRFR THAT DUDE IS DOPE SO CHEERS & SALUTE!!![999]
There's so much depth to this man and his soul is busting at the seems with brilliance Period
Masterpiece
He's just a pure genius.. Like Beethoven.
Now I understand why I like this song so much. Everytime the beat is adjusted to accentuate Em's rhymes, the song just hits hard!
DRE IS THE OG GOAT - created music for all the TOP ARTISTS 🙌🏼

It explains why the lyrics of Dre's verse are actually good
Banger of a tune
Em a beast 🔥😎
Legendary song
It was actually written for snoop and dre but dre liked ems vocals so left it as it was
Nope! Snoop turned it down and said Em sounded better on it
One of my favorites
I never forgot Dre. Much love
Ems the shit!!
Eminem’s best tune of all time?? Has to be surly🔥
Too many to say. It’s up there.
@@colinharris615 gimme summin👀
Eminem the freestyle god
False idol. He's a very skilled rapper though.
I was in middle school when this track was on MTV and at its peak. Feeling old.
I had to go listen to it again after this lol
Johnny listens to music no one knows about, dresses funny, has a weird sense of humor and doesn't listen to anyone but himself. Man is he rare!
1999 Eminem was different 🔥🔥
He was hungry
One of the best tracks ever
Em also wrote “The Watcher”
Calling men ladies like he knew what was coming smfh

Dre's always been my favourite.
Eminem wrote all the lyrics including Dre's and Snoop's for the song.
Dre said he wrote the entire song
Not according to the video @@greentaz1
I mean Dre said Eminem wrote the whole song
Two of the best artists! 💯
Good work Em. Very creative creature, when things are done with passion, whole heartedly.
Oh so he wrote Dr Dre verses?
Duh...
He wrote the song for Dre and Snoop but Dre liked how Em sounded on it. So he made the song with him instead of Snoop.

Please look at Ems face 😢 the real Em...
This a 10 out of 10 song, everything about it is perfect, absolutely flawless. Em was a whole nother monster
You going places bro 🔥🔥
That was a masterpiece
Genius!
I love how I still know this word for word ❤
Something about this takes me back and gives me chills , going back to that time of my life. Man, shit changes. That was a whole lifetime ago!
The line about the temp in the Mercedes’ with the temp in the mid 80s
And doesn’t stop the ball to the hook.
Flawless
Ohhh how far weve fallen from real rap.....real music for the most part.
i love them two, best partner in business and friendship and still❤❤
The song is a classic. I remember listening to this on the radio in middle school being amazed. All these years later, I still get the same feeling every time I hear it.
2001 isn’t just one of my favourite rap albums, it’s in my top 5 in general. Amazing.
I love this song. Eminem and DR DRE are best rappers for me.
Banger 👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼
One of the best songs there is ❤
One of the few reason why Em is considered the best rapper is because he writes his own lyrics, he doesn’t have ghost writers like most rappers.
Literally my favourite rap song.
One of my favorite songs of all time..loved the whole album but THIS song changed how I listened to music. WORD BY WORD..the whole squad. PROPS
So he wrote the lyrics and we needed to lay a beat down that went good.
Casually cooked the greatest beat of all time...
This song still sends chills down my back
A classic for all time!
Inagine your at work and your artist comes in and this is the material they give you eminems mind is absolutely bonkers genius its unfathomable
There's a song that aged well
Hands down one of the most iconic tracks of my generation
This song reminds me of Driving Pea Combines under a Starry Night at 2am in the early 2000s. That album was on high rotation on my diskman that summer.
Thats THE SHIT 🔥🔥🔥🔥 especially.how the video follows the lyrics line by line
One my favorite Em records
Dr. Dre's comeback song written by Eminem.
Sign of a great producer… to be able to hear the musicology inside the tune, lyrics or prose
Still slaps. Everything em touches is gold
One of the best songs
One of my favorite songs...and I'm a heavy metal guy.
Still got it on a playlist
One of the few em songs I love
Eminem's verse in that track will always mesmerize me, "so whatta ya say, to somebody you hate" ❤ the best ever.
Honestly still one of the most FIRE rap songs EVER
