He was working with them thru 94. For Above the Rim. That's what he was talkin bout. Shorty said he hated Snoop. Yet he was one of the few people who supported Snoop thru his murder case n all that. shyt just don't add up. Pac wasn't doing anything remotely similar to them at the time. Unless he was speaking for Richie Rich. Who Snoop def was influenced by.


i don't remember her saying he hated them.

he prolly just took his L and moved on. pac swiped stuff from other artists too:manny:


My fault. The lawsuit.


well they definitely ran with the concept.

He even recorded a song with Snoop in '94.

"He could not stand Death Row, he could not stand them, he hated them."

See. I don't believe in that cause a song has a similar concept "oh my song was stolen" shyt. It's retarded cause ain't nobody got an idea out here that's original. Meaning that just cause u think u thought of something first. There's damn near always someone out there with a similar idea. Especially with something as limited as music is. U can tell when someone is clearly biting. And sometimes shyt just be coincidence. Like I said I use my brain to filter the bs when it comes to these types of things. Otherwise anybody can just sue anybody.

It was a group called Perfection that were signed to Death Row during the time of Snoop, Dr. Dre, Nate, DPG, LBC Crew, Lady of Rage, DOC etc and among other unknowns that Suge signed and eventually dropped as they decided to leave the label. Perfection changed their name to Foesum after leaving Death Row Records in early 93/ late 92 after failing to get their album released. Most of the songs Perfection recorded were reused for DoggyStyle as their vocals stripped off with in place Snoop and others saying their words verbatim but obviously with the updated G-Funk sound only Dre could produce. Snoop shouts Perfection out on Nothing But A "G" Thang; "Perfection is perfected and I'll let them understand". Which was a double entendre as the third member of their group left just before DoggyStyle was released and Snoop was essentially saying the group is better off without them. The other reference to the shout out in the lyric is the scrapped song from the DoggyStyle sessions, a diss track called "Let Them Understand Perfection" also featuring Snoop Dogg that was a diss track aimed at that individual who left the group Perfection. In this period of they recorded many songs which were unfortunately demos used for Tha Chronic and DoggyStyle as their album never got to see the light of day.



Also, this is an old story and the original "Ain't No Fun" was released limited in Long Beach on a mixtape for their neighborhood.

But it was a 213 demo before it was Snoop's as a solo. So these writers helped write the 213 demo? Let's get to the reality, the majority of the song is NATE DOGG, it isn't Snoop,Kurupt. Snoop was given a gift for his album. Nate Dogg was introduced to the world officially on this record, no one gave a fukk about Snoop, Kurupt,Warren on the song. No one I knew was like "Here's my favorite part when Snoop raps! " No, the response was "I like this guy singing, he's funny & this is catchy, i'd like to have this in my car or dj set to play" We all know, let's not pretend why people loved this song.



In fact, listeners probably wanted a version without the raps as a single. Deathrow was too naive to understand that. When you have song like that, have a rapless version at the ready. The question I have, did Nate Dogg have the hook/concept or was it given to him by Antonio & Craig Ward? The next question I have, did Nate Dogg deliberately lie in interviews if he was ever asked about creation of "Aint No Fun"? That's a starting point for me before we go any further in this.

The last thing is, put out the whole demo of "Aint No fun" release it on Soundcloud & let's hear the origin. I don't care what you are telling me, show me, give me your work & you have a more convincing position.

Good god, this sounds nothing like this. The chorus isn't even melodic. This case is going straight to a trashfire. Release the Foesum demos stripped for Doggystyle & chronic, I want to hear everything Snoop and Dre allegedly used.
