Its ironic that after this, Dr Dre went in the complete opposite direction of the message of this song by cashing in big time on promoting specific "gangsta" imagery and violence.

Yea, the only two guys in N.W.A. who were puttin in work in the streets were Eazy and MC Ren (Kelly Park Compton Crips). And no Dre wasn't out there bustin heads and tearin shit up, but even durin the World Class Wreckin Crew days South Central L.A. was on fire with Regannomics, drugs, gangbangin, and gold fashioned police brutality, so Dre had a lot of material to draw from to become a nigga with an attitude.

Who had the best verse on this track? I think it's MC Hammer.

I think it's a tie between Eazy

Ya know good from bad bad from good right from wrong

And now ya mothers singin that sad song

(My baby aint never hurt nobody!!!)

Yeah, but he still got smoked at be[be's party

But you're not the first or the last

Ya just another sad story from the past

Ya dead now not number one but a zero

Take it from Eazy.... the violent hero

and Ice T

I say job you say bad joke

I rather kill anotha brotha watch the gun smoke

Livin in the fast lane livin like an insane

You won't stop untill your blood pours down a street drain

Ice-T, Digilal Underground, & MC Hammer had the best verses. However, the very first time I ever heard Eazy-E's verse (EXAMPLE: My baby aint never hurt nobody!!!) , I thought it was funny as hell! lol
