Ghost and many of the other Wu-Tang members are adherents of the Nation of Gods and Earths, often known as the 5-Percent Nation of Islam. NGE members, like mainstream Muslims, are forbidden to eat pork or related products. Thus, someone who is “still eating bacon” is at a lower level of spiritual development than Ghost and his cohorts

“Wet” refers to cocaine sold quickly, before the crack’s even dried up. The weight of the crack is also heavier with this water content—therefore if you sell it you’ll get more money for giving up less product.

Selling weight ‘wet’ meant to sell the crack so fast it didn’t even have time to dry from the cooking. It’s cheating, but I justify it in the next line.

Though Dre raps in this song, a look at the credits reveals a certain S. Carter is behind the rhymes

Though Dre hasn’t denied most of his lyrics are written for him, he’s about production and delivering the lyrics in a gangster way, and he does just that.

“Check me out” can mean that he wants you to hear whether or not he’s still got it.
