Again, a combined shot at Master P and Snoop Dogg. Snoop Dogg has always portrayed being a pimp and Master P came to fame off the Ice Cream Man album. Yuk letting them know that Dru came first as the Ice Cream Man and as “Pimp of the Year” including the perm haired, slick talking, and smooth body language.

On that line, he is talking about Too Short not being from Oakland since he is originally from LA. Not Snoop.

This is about Too $hort not Snoop. $hort actually grew up in South Central L.A. and even briefly spent time in Atlanta, GA as a child. He relocated to Oakland in 1980 when he was 14 years old.
