[tatuxxxxxxxxxxx]

[shesshogo]

:) you're here

[boricua616]

I like this song. You would think a song that feels so intimate would have been written by Dre himself but props goes to the homie Royce for writing this for Dre.

[ecko3003]

this song is proof royde da 5 9 is epic

[priitpa]

hip hop without dre's beats would be just silly

[costakijitcu]

@priitpa this beat is not prod. by dre

[JustToDislike]

now that is true rap

[Skajter32]

This beat is magical and beautiful ...

[jesssports11]

this is my favorite Dre song, sure I love The Next Episode Nuthin But A G Thang and stuff, but solo Dre equals better Dre

[panchaaweed]

Lovee it :D

[Drnerdrage]

@kungblao Who cares? Dre has been known for not writing his own lyrics but few rappers actually hate on him for it. Read How To Rap, Many of Dre's "Ghostwriters" explain that ultimately Dre is in control of the lyrics and raps them how he feels. By the time the track gets recorded Dre has already put his spun on the lyrics.

[pwnutonight]

R.I.P Bro.. I think about you everyday, I miss you. Thank you Dre.

[dje971]

LOVE LOVE LOVE



[CCooke3]

finesse is a living legend

[eminemdakingbru2]

[Kronics1]

[Malinkoo7]

[Uchihaheyhi]

rapping from the heart. i feel exactly the same after my sister passed, i had tears.

"It's just not me, but you know I'ma always ride wit you

I miss you, sometimes I wish I just died wit you"

what a song to end 2001. c'mon Detox for 2012!

[laca13millos]

yeahhh smoking weed

[mcdonogh13]

No matter who u prefer, u cant deny lil wayne or drake couldnt write a song as meaningful and moving as dre does. West coast hip hop, the real shit, i miss u

[angelosinski]

@mcdonogh13 dre didnt write this man.. sorry to end your romance. and i think tie my hands was meaningful as fuck.. at least to me

[Tylerkat89]

@mcdonogh13 but they don't. so quit insulting the entire music industry and shut up.

[brandonhewitt1]

9 ppl didnt get the message.

[zomexx1]

[Baisleyfinestog]

This song reminds me of all my homies who passed away!

[ANILERGUNAY8]

@Baisleyfinestog respect

[TheCaWaLa]

Are we at the point now where knowing Royce wrote this song doesn't make people think you're smart? I hope we are.

[undagroundrap313]

This is the best Dr. Dre song ever

[ho0liganz]

@undagroundrap313 dre didnt write it tho... so not really HIS best song. but def a great song.

[eddyguillen]

i really with he wouldve made a music video for this song.

[ho0liganz]

Royce da 5 9 killed it! this is a great song written by him.

[Leezo2k10]

[EazymuthaphukkinE95]

Is this a tribute to Eazy-E?

[lazminit03]

@EazymuthaphukkinE95 Not Eazy, It's dedicated to his brother!

[TheB11Z]

@EazymuthaphukkinE95

He said "I thought I learned from Eazy, now I'm goin through it with you"

[EazymuthaphukkinE95]

@TheB11Z Right, but what is Dre talking about when he talked about Eazy?

[k1xor]

Rest in Peace 2Pac, Big L, Biggie, Jam Master Jay, Nate Dogg, ODB, Magik, Big Proof, Mac Dre, Eazy-E and my great-grandmother !

[MrReman23]

Written by Royce Da 5'9"

[TheBezip]

1 of the best

[GoodSydeBill]

Who is this song about ?

[HOUSTON713TEXASI]

@GoodSydeBill His brother

[GoodSydeBill]

@HOUSTON713TEXASI Did he die or something ?

[OfficialMakillaTV]

@GoodSydeBill

nah he went to burger king, dre didnt know where he was and wrote this song.... of course he died u retard listen to the lyrics ;)

[DICKLIGHTSKATECREW]

tommy chong :D

[x4aperfecttool]

Royce's ghostwriting also bring to light another ethical question: Should rappers hire writers for songs that are inherently personal to the artist? Royce wrote the bulk of Dr. Dre's "The Message," which dealt with the murder of Dre's brother, and Sauce Money wrote much of "I'll Be Missing You," a tribute to Puff Daddy's late friend Notorious B.I.G. (That song, incidentally, sold over three million copies; Sauce Money received $1,000 for his efforts.)

[bosshog13aka]

thank u dre 4 makin this song 4 my big brother james tyree harris one love G Thuglife!!!

People diss Eminem but once he dies watch he will be the new Tupac. They will be all like OMG EMINEM RIP when 2 months ago they were saying worst rapper ever.

[TheeBryan522]

@MikeAndRB eminem doesnt need to die to become the new tupac. He already is greater than tupac

[MikeAndRB]

@TheeBryan522 well that is easy too say.

[dirtyface111]

you guys are all idiots, this song is mainly for the instrumentals, its called "the message" = his message he wrote to god, it doesn't have to rhyme.

[PRUNEDOG1]

@dirtyface111 no, its all about listening to the lyrics, holy fuck

[garymofo2]

best instrumental ever

[triXz7]

royce da 5'9 thats the man

[fleadle34]

Did he say a message to God ??

God would never listen to shit like this , he would piss him self laughing !

" i don't know what hurts more seeing them leave or watching them go "

What kind of dumb lyric is that , must spend his time mostly confused if he can't work out his own thoughts !

[SilenTeR100]

@fleadle34 Lol ure dumb if you dont understand how it is ment..ure soo stooooooopid sooo stoooooooooooopid 

[siwooot]

@fleadle34 lol agreed, there's many lines in this song like that, these are probably the worst rhymes royce has ever written

[fleadle34]

@siwooot I'm glad you think so , its awful , nice tune but so weak lyrically !

[GeNoTheEndoSmokr]

@fleadle34 Clearly then his lyrics went over your head and your a fucking moron

[fleadle34]

@GeNoTheEndoSmokr Like I said Dude, don't get mad , try and see the funny side !

I love this tune it is one of the best , but like many songs that rock, weak lyrics .

[Chaps0n]

@fleadle34 weak lyrics lol, it's just real talk based on a true story, spoken from the heart, ain't nuttin weak about it

[fleadle34]

@Chaps0n " It's just real talk " it's a song ! "ain't nuttin weak about it " apart from " I don't know what hurts more seeing them leave or watching them go " That clearly is a bad lyric , but it doesn't spoil the song .

Why defend poor lyrics ?

P.S by nuttin you mean nothing ? not that you are going nuttin, you know gathering nuts ?

[Chaps0n]

@fleadle34 hahaha, go on, defend yourself. do you even know the difference between a lyric and a rhyme? like i said; ain't 'nothing' weak about it. i bet you're one of the 7 dislikers :) and oh yea, it's 'seeing him leave or watching him go', clearly you didn't get the 'message' ;)

[PAINTHOSELEMONSGOLD]

@Chaps0n yeah the lyrics arent amazing. but he's got sick flow. and like you said, he's talking about real shit. but the hook is amazing.

[GodWalksWitMe]

@fleadle34 if you have no ear to hear and have no mind to think you probably wont understand any music that has deeper meaning, art is not about showing you something done, you are the listener who needs to think about the meaning, when you see a painting you are the one who thinks about what you see, the artist only gives your mind a spark to start thinking, anyone who is unable to understand this and only criticizes other peoples creations should either learn and grow up asap or die tonight...

[GodWalksWitMe]

@fleadle34 and as for that im not sure you're right about God's possible reaction about this song...

[fleadle34]

@GodWalksWitMe No perhaps it would be one of " oh why did I allow my own human like Qualities to screw with my almost perfect creation " " I should have never have created the origin of sin , not if it leads to bad lyrics like this message to myself , Oh my me , what have I done ! "

Not meant to piss off any one who believes in an all powerful , that's all powerful , God, that makes mistakes ??

[Unkoolkiddz]

@fleadle34 I think he means: "Seeing them leave" = seeing them walk away. & "Watching them go" = watching them die.

[fleadle34]

@Unkoolkiddz I think he means some thing nice and that's the main thing.

What I really don't understand is why all these loving lyrics, then next comes some bull shit about killing each other, then about bitches, then about just how tough they are because they live west or east .

The whole thing is about getting kids to spend there cash !

Banging on about names of dead people seems to do it .

It's a precious human life, being dead that aint G !

@fleadle34 I burn my blunts while listening to their music to remember the greats, the ones who made rap what it is.

@stables1993 true

[u2pacalypse]

@stables1993 I feel you but cant believe you said em instead of cube.. em is one of the best yes but he's doing songs wtih artists like lil wayne and rihanna while cube, who's been in the game since '87, is keeping it as real as he ever has, representing his coast more than ever.. Ice cube is way underrated..

[stables1993]

@u2pacalypse good shout ive never really listened to ice cube untill recently defo underrated eminem still good but loosin it abit now fuck lil wayne.

[u2pacalypse]

@stables1993 ok i understand man. i think you really should start listen to ice cube more, he is a genius! listen to Growin Up, if you know NWA's history you will love it, guarantee. im not saying its his best song cause who knows which that one is but Growin Up is my favorite at the moment.

[u2pacalypse]

@stables1993 ironically, he rap abit about em in that song too, "oh shit its nwa, them niggas on tour and they comin our way. little eminem is still tucked away, in that trailer park just bumpin our tape".. he didnt meant that as a diss, it just displays how great cube is and how long he's been in the game.
