If you listen, then you should instantly recognize that this is Rick Ross. This is when Ross broke onto the scene on Suave House records and he was still unknown. He wouldn’t release Port of Miami for another 6 years.

And he has a fetish for stealing nicknames of notorious criminals as Teflon Don was the nickname for John Gotti as he was able to walk the public streets being insulated from his crimes to where police couldnt touch him and other criminals couldn’t get close enough to take him out.

Notice how he intentionally grew the beard to mimic the real Freeway Ricky Ross

It has been rumored that this song was intended to to diss Lil C-Style and replace him with Tray Deee in the LBC Crew for destroying the original and only mastered copy of the LBC Crew’s debut album that Snoop recorded on his own time after the release of his debut album.

The album, recorded before the recording of any other Death Row projects after The Chronic and Doggystyle at CanAm studios, was destroyed over a dispute over royalties which led to Snoop disassociating with Style until about late 1998 including removing his verse of the famous “Out the Moon(Boom Boom Boom)” track off the Gridlock’d Soundtrack.

By now, Eminem had engaged in beef with Ja Rule and he started off by lacing the D12 debut album with direct responses. Devil’s Night had great buzz and Ja is metaphorically saying that he figuratively gets hotter than the scrubs(D12) by literally firing off on em and the heat emission from his gun is burning up from dropping all 6 of them.
