abstract
  • Eazy-Er Said Than Dunn was one of Eazy-E's first singles apart from N.W.A. It had no explicit lyrics, which made it permitted for the radio. Dr. Dre's part in the song was the memorable intro and his production by using %22Scratching%22 by the Magic Disco Machine and %22The Breakdown%22 by Rufus Thomas. The video shows N.W.A. at a club playing the single to the crowd and wandering through Compton, California. To promote radio play, the song was deliberately written without profanity in the lyrics, but does have a reference of cocaine, though it's mentioned negatively, saying he %22don't do dope.%22 The line is %22Yo, I don't do dope, but I'm dope, not a dope%22, which he says dope as other meanings. Also, he uses references of guns (gat) and sounds of gunshots throughout the song. But a fact that it is to promote radio play is self-referenced in the song itself:Cuz I'm the same personWhether serious or rehearsinI just gotta keep cursinThis is for the radio so I better chillThey won't play it if I go get illBut I'm like that and that's an actual factBecause the street is where my heart is atThis song featured in the soundtrack of 2004's Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas on the radio station Radio Los Santos.Although the entire song is rapped by Eazy, the video shows the whole crew and mentions Dr. Dre and MC Ren in lines such as %22My homey Dre is a doctor not a lawyer%22 and %22Yo Ren get the gat show'em where it's at%22. The single was featured with others such as %22Boyz-N-the-Hood%22, %22Radio%22, and %22Ruthless Villain%22 to name a few. The first line of the song is sung by Dr. Dre.
