These fake gangsters carry guns in their waistband with no intention to actually use them – Plaxico Burress style. They would rather be perceived as killers that can force people around them to obey their every command than actually kill people. In other words:

You say you a gangsta but you never pop nothin'
We say you a wanksta and you need to stop frontin'"

Dre is also referring to the Western movie genre trope of a gunman firing at the ground to make the victim “dance” (hop around trying to avoid being shot in the foot)

Even though Dre is a capable gangster, he is still a talented musician who isn’t afraid to do things that may cause people to perceive him as weak, like playing beautiful music out in public.

Referring to Brooklyn rapper Troy Ave who was the target of a Christmas day shooting while he was sitting in his Maserati in his hometown but he didn’t suffer major injuries.

Coincidentally, Freddie Gibbs also survived a shooting in Brooklyn while he was sitting in an SUV after a performance.

The need to keep conversation hidden is a motif in the world of gangsters such as Frank Lucas.

Here, Freddie is suspicious of Big Brother/police state spying on citizens internet and phone history. Therefore Gibbs is suggesting as a precaution to rely on pages, which is a message received by a pager (a.k.a. beeper) as a way to covertly communicate.

There may also be double entendre happening here with this line. Pages is a band known for their pop and jazz fusion, popular during the 80’s. They are a band that Alchemist would certainly sample if he has not already. Could Freddie be suggesting music sounds trash now and we need to return to digging in the crates a la Alchemist and Madlib, two producers who have worked on projects with Freddie?

Bronson is a fan of Seinfeld, his raps have mentioned both George Costanza and Elaine Benes, therefore it is safe to assume Bronson got the “It’s me” ad-lib from the Seinfeld episode, “The Burning,” in which Jerry is dating someone who doesn’t announce their name when they call, but instead uses the term, “It’s me”, which is a term people use when they are recognized. Bronson is such a beast in the rap game, you already know who it is.
