(10/9/02, 10 a.m. ET) -- Kurupt recently premiered a response record he wrote about former cohorts Snoop Dogg and Daz Dillinger on the B-Side radio show on KKBT in Los Angeles. In the track, Kurupt questions why Dillinger, his former partner in Tha Dogg Pound, and Snoop would not respect his decision to rejoin the ranks of their longtime nemesis Suge Knight at the label head's Tha Row Records.
Snoop and Dillinger have addressed their disagreement with Kurupt in the press, as well as on Snoop's album, Snoop Dogg Presents: Welcome To Tha House, Vol. 1.
Kurupt wrote the song as an open letter, asking in the first verse whether families are supposed to fall out over "emotional acts" or "who you chose to do business with."
In the second verse, he relishes about his previous friendship with the rappers, and proclaims his continued success with Dillinger, rhyming, "Me and one of my brothers used to be the tightest group/And 'til this mother f-cking day we the tightest group."
Kurupt, in the final verse, calls Snoop and Daz's gripes with him hypocritical: "I didn't change when y'all n-ggas wanted to stay/I didn't change when things wasn't going our way/I didn't change when y'all n-ggas want to burst/The shoe was one a different foot and the roles reversed."
Kurupt wrapped the song saying that despite his desire to continue his friendship with them, he stood firm in his decision to work with Knight. "I could do this sh-t all by myself," Kurupt rapped, "I'd rather be read than placed back on the shelf/I'm a mother f--king g/Forever 'til I die c-p-t/I love y'all cuzz!"
