Daz Dillinger of Tha Dogg Pound appeared on a recent episode of The Home Grown Podcast where he claimed that Jay-Z owes him money for lyrics included on 'Still D.R.E." from Dre's The Chronic 2001 album.
"When you look at who sampled.com it says they [interpolated] 'Serial Killer' in "Still D.R.E.," the Dogg Pound MC said. "They took my line 'If you ain't up on thangs Snoop Dogg is the name Dogg Pound's the gang'. They put that in 'Still Dre' - 'If you ain't up on thangs, Dr. Dre is the name I'm ahead of my game.'"
Daz says that he believes that Jay-Z was influenced by his verse in "Serial Killer." "In my mind, Jay-Z was listening to 'Serial Killer' when was writing that motherfuckin' rhyme, and I want to get my money for that."
Daz went on to explain that he sent Dr. Dre a letter and Dre sent lawyers back at him questioning why he waited so long.
