This is a badass song. Its just pure anger and badassedness. Its unforunate that Em was involved with it because people sort of forgot it was Dre and obsessed over Em's side lyrics and somewhat annoying chorus. It got really trendy and people just disregarded any meaning to it.
Dre's part is awesome. It would have been an even better song if they omitted Em or just put in someone else because his purpose is only for backup and to reverberate Dre.
This song is Dre basically saying how sh*tty mainstream rap is today and how he pioneered it and made it amazing. Yet these new rappers were coming out with their dumbass groups and gangs acting like they knew started rapping before anyone else. And he sort of just goes over his career which utterly proves he's done so much for the rap culture and he gets little or no credit from the mainstream.
I love this line,"This is the millenium of AftermathAin't gonna be nothin after thatSo give me one more platinum plaque and f*ck rapYou can have it back"
Hes saying that this is his last go at it and hes going to just show up every rapper just to show them how rap is done. Then when he owns the industry again like he had back in the day he just gives it back because he knows its nothing these days and at any given time a real rapper like him can dominate it if they want to.

this song is a clever satire on the nefarious ways in which jealous hip-hop artists of the common era tend to neglect the presence of doctor dre as one of the tried and true driving forces responsible for the current--and seemingly utopic--state of the hip-hop scene that those same unobservant rappers take for granted. dre so provocatively reminds his fellow artists that he does in fact still have ubiquitous amounts of cheese, G's, wheels, keys, boats, snowmobiles, and skis, among other possessions.
dre, phD is so boldly innovative; yet he executes his awe-inspiring poetry in such humble and simple fashion.
really, really powerful stuff..............

This is an ill song that when you just feel pissed and doing sh*t like he does in this song
"So what do you say to somebody you hateOr anyone tryna bring trouble your wayWanna resolve things in a bloodier wayJust study a tape of NWAOne day I was walkin byWit a walkmen onWhen I caught a guy givin me an awkward eyeAnd strangled him off in the parkin lot wit his Karl Kani "
which is cool to do i think it's one of the best songs by em.
