Got in this discussion earlier and I wanted to say "In Da Club" but am not sure entirely about which ones are original

Yeah, basically Dre was a composition director to Scott. Told him what type of sound he was looking for and Scott composed it. :yeshrug:
That's composing though? If that's true. I've always been under the impression Scott would just be playing around and come up with something. If he's directing the music he's composing he's just not playing it.

The way Dre worked though would basically be a band of producers specializing in each element of the song. I could imagine them all working on something or maybe just messing around until he hears something he likes

Always a tight relationship with the bass play . . . Mike Elizondo and before that Colin Wolfe.

Just thought about it again, I was still thinking co producer credit was something we were taking into account too. But you said "No replay. No sample. Original composition"

It's gotta be some shyt off the Chronic 2001, IF we not counting co producer credit cause besides Scott like @King Musa said, Mel Man also got credit

However, Dre didn't sample a lot on that album. There's some sampling, but not a lot. So it's gotta be some song off of that album

Does In Da Club have samples?

We could also includes samples which aren't a part of the melody, so percussion
