Dr. Dre, Rick Ross and Jay-Z went from rags (or dope dealing, as the case may be) to riches

Also, Dr. Dre was once part of the World Class Wrecking Cru. In a nightclub, a wrecking crew was always the group of DJ’s that performed last before closing. Other DJs could leave with only their crates but Wrecking Crews broke down the equipment at the end of the night. If you helped the club owner straighten up a bit, you made more money.

Probably one of my most well received songs. Looking back at after nearly a year I realize how much I’ve grown as far lyrics since this. This beat is just ridiculous though. It sounds so different if you listen with one headphone on your ear.

I came across this beat one day posted on Facebook by Melvin Burch. I wasn’t really familiar with MF DOOM at the time and I had 4 bars typed with no beat that went along with it perfectly so I used it and wrote more. This was in my early stages where I kinda had an idea of doing all MF Doom beats on a little EP which may or may not be canceled.
