Dr. Dre feat. T.I. & Nas / Topless

Dr.Dreの44歳の誕生日であった2/18に、Hot97のDJ Envyが「Detox」収録予定曲の「Topless」をスピンした。

Dr.Dreのラップが入っていない完全な未マスタリング・バージョンながら、反響を呼んでいる。
乾いたスネアドラムのバックビートにオルガンの悲しげなメロディーで作れた、ドッシリとした太さと存在感を感じさせるプロダクションに、T.I.――
未マスタリング・ヴァージョンでも音質以外は満足できる高い完成度である。


(T.I. verce)
No roof!
Live life topless, can’t nobody stop this.

It the D-R
charged with saving artists out of the E-R
bring’em back to life to beats like CPR
made the WEST SIDE world wide, no PR
Gangsta rap god
I’m the end all, be all
California Love
from the bloods to the c-dawgs
the Compton monster
make you want to cut your mp off
the greatest in the game
haters should be ashamed
for not acknowledging
the brain of the west coast king
brought Chronic to the scene
full pills in the lean
now the game is full of puppies
look at me no strings
again and again I’ve shown you seen me
sick of niggas egos, ruined they self-esteem
Sky the limit, no roof
i can do what you dream
done it all before you did a thing
know what i mean?
tee’s and black jeans
no bling just bang
officially deranged, clinically insane
look Eazy ain’t a damn thing change, I promise
still lived like we did back when we straight out of Compton
talking shit outside, attitudes on some hood shit
showed them what to smoke when they was blazin’ that bullshit
then while you smell the dro roll when the record play
not a blemish on my image, a decorated resume
a legendary legacy
all the awards that you’ll never be
what the fuck is ya’ll telling me?
forever on top
face it you’ll never be better than the doc, ask pac
again i’ll say it’ll never stop,
face it you’ll never be greater than the doc, ask pac
