Ima try and break it down for y’all. Dre first verse with the blurred faces the scene is based off of the Menendez murders out here in L.A. in the late 80s and cube and Dre last verse that’s suppose to be the oj Simpson murders with Ron and Nicole Simpson. That’s why everyone faces blurred out. They made it as to where Dre and cube are the murderers instead of the original killers. This was mad3 in 1994. Dre was on death row and they were suppose to make a joint album called helter skelter but it was never released but they did this song and it ended up being on the murder was the case soundtrack. But yea this song was the first song Dre and ice cube made together since their time with nwa so it was like a nwa reunion. This video also won video of the year at the infamous 1995 source awards. The director is Gary gray, who is from L.A. and did the nwa movie which is also why Tupac is in the video. He was coo with Gary and this was right before Tupac signed with death row, before he went to prison and suge bailed him out in 1995
Props for this breakdown. But how about we give Heltah Skeltah some play too. That Boot Camp Click era is forgotten and I hate that. In fact I'm gonna see if I can get some BCC in Spotify in the morning drive 😂❤

"It's like a deadly game of freeze tag, I touch you with the forty four mag and you're frozen inside a body bag." One of the sickest rhymes ever. Pretty sure Cube had to write that one.
This was a soundtrack single for the movie Murder Was the Case. It was meant to be wild and creepy. Eastwood in the comments broke it down in terms of the imagery. By the way, the coldest line in this song is, "So fuck Charlie Manson. I snatch him out of his truck, hit 'em with a brick, and I'm dancing," which referenced the 1992 riots when a big rig truck driver, Reginald Denny, was driving his truck through South Central, got surrounded, pulled out of his truck, and hit with a brick. He suffered brain damage and was never the same again.
Nothing touches the 90's for truly memorable hip hop videos and short films like this. Never got as good ever again. This short film was Directed by F. Gary Gray who went on to direct feature films "Friday", "Set It Off", "Men In Black: International", "The Italian Job", "Straight Outta Compton" & "The Fate of the Furious". This short film was banned from MTV because they said there was "too much fire" and the video was "menacing", but, mostly b/c the "blurry parts" are of a supposed Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman, and the video implies OJ Simpson arrived after Cube and Dre had already murdered them and OJ was subsequently framed. Very sensitive topic in 1994. Also, this was supposed to be on the soundtrack for Oliver Stones film of the same name but didn't happen for contractual reasons. However, Stones film did include Dr Dre's "The Day the Niggaz Took Over" from the prison riot scene as well as Death Row sidekicks and Snoop side project Tha Dogg Pounds "What Would You Do". And finally, that 2pac cameo? Did ya catch it?
I'm so glad you did the video by the thumbnail I thought it was just going to be the album cover. Also cool whoever pointed out it was Tupac at the end the pop-up suggestion boxes are irritating
This s*** right here was word on the street. Niggaz caught felonies listening to this s***. Death row is the Michael Jordan of rap. This is definitely a 10.5
There was a really weird year or 2 in Cali when guys were doing "horror rap". Check out Brotha Lynch early shit. He was saying some weird cannibal shit lol
I’m 37 and have been waiting for the rights to be released for decades. Finally somebody extended the intro to this song for the video. Hardest beat I have ever heard in my life. Sinister as fuck. Black khaki suits and mac 10s driving by in the lolo at 3am type th-cam.com/video/6qqwdiddlHo/w-d-xo.html
All the weird stuff you saw and heard in that song and video was specific to that era. So if you were there at the time you would understand. Like all the blurred out stuff was a reenactment of OJ Simpson killing his ex wife. This was made for the Natural Born Killers soundtrack but it was too “edgy”so they took it off
You guys like this I think you would also enjoy a *Snoop Dogg (Murder Was The Case)* video *th-cam.com/video/Do4fA8tONY4/w-d-xo.html* Long version *th-cam.com/video/QxB6YoZ3CG4/w-d-xo.html*

“I’ll snatch him out his truck, hit him with a brick and I’m dancin” refers to the LA Riots after four LAPD cops were acquitted for the brutal beating of Rodney King. It was a crazy time to live in LA.

wish yall focused a lot more on the lyrical content. Dre & Cube really tried to bring Horrorcore to the masses with this one
We have to look more into the horrorcore artist.
Check for GRAVEDIGGAZ - 1-800 SUICIDE, and NOWHERE TO RUN
@@404productionsent Brotha Lynch Hung is horrorcore
Yeah check out the GOAT Brotha Lynch Hung 🔥💯

No doubt!
Huge Ice Cube fan!!! Til my last breath. ❤❤❤❤❤
Such a dope track. I like the 2Pac cameo at the end. I remember when this came out it was so dope
you've got to love those west coast Dre beats.........
At the end 2 PAC was in the chopper with the sniper ready to shoot Cube. It had a lot of OJ murder case in it..
The West Coast definitely brought the brutality and the hyper-violence into the music.

The actorsname was John Amos. And you have to watch the movie natural Born Killers with Woody harrelson to understand the video

O.J. didn't do it. Not singlehandedly
This was their first collab since their NWA days in the late 80s, so this was a very big deal for them to come back together. It lived up to the hype.
True story!!!
This was back when they used to have almost movie budgets for music videos.
Rip goat pac at the end
I'm so glad you did the video by the thumbnail I thought it was just going to be the album cover. Also cool whoever pointed out it was Tupac at the end the pop-up suggestion boxes are irritating
That charlie Manson line is my favorite
This is from the soundtrack of the movie “Natural Born Killers”. Y’all should check it out it will help you understand the vibe of the song and video.
Nice to see these young cats recognizing 😂
THE SNIPER SHOOTER IS TU-PAC
Ice Cubes take on Horrorcore rap, y’all need to do “Keep their heads ringin” by Ice Cube as well

It’s on a soundtrack “natural born killers” check the movie. The movie is warped.
This is cold.
Yes 2pac! R.i.p
Murder was the Case by Snoop & Dre please!!!

Another person said it perfectly: Horrorcore. This is exactly what it was. Murder was the Case by Snoop. Many more. ❤
The scene is from Nicole Brown crime scene.
The first murder scene was the Menendez killings where the two sons killed their parents hoping to get a big inheritance.
You guys like this I think you would also enjoy a *Snoop Dogg (Murder Was The Case)* video *th-cam.com/video/Do4fA8tONY4/w-d-xo.html*

React to EPMD Headbanger
FLATLINERZ is the ultra-spooky hip hop
Probs Dre's best rap this. My opinion tbh.

ecw new jack and his weapons
2pac makes an appearance in this music video ~
The OJ Simpson case
yall too young to get the references like the OJ line , Hit em in the head & i'm dancing ...
This was the Horrorcore style that lasted about 1 year
They didn't even stop the video and react to that line.
The pixelated parts of the video depicted the Nicole Simpson & Ron Goldman murders.
which is why it showed the white bronco, earlier.
and Cube saying "IM DOWN WITH DRE LIKE AC IS DOWN WITH OJ"
That I never knew. 😐
You missed 2pac at the end.
tupac blocking tupac lol
Yeah, which is two pacs 😂
