Lyrics such as “Still Dre, still on top” and “The sonic still iconic” underline their evergreen relevance in Hip-Hop. With nods to their shared history and the future of the genre, the verses are filled with confidence and self-assurance.

Intro and First Verse

Snoop sets the tone with the line "Roll it up, light it up, hands up," establishing a party-like atmosphere. This transitions into vivid imagery of high-end indulgence, blending humor with bragging rights. His reference to “flight attendants” hints at luxury, while “highly recommended” celebrates his cannabis empire.

Dr. Dre's Second Verse

Dre’s verse is a masterclass in lyrical dominance. Phrases like “I’ve been around the world... ain’t seen a thing I can’t buy” highlight his success and reflect his larger-than-life persona. By incorporating metaphors like the "third eye," Dre alludes to elevated perspectives gained through experience.

Snoop's and Dre's Third and Fourth Verses

Snoop compares himself to a "silverback gorilla," a powerful metaphor for dominance and leadership. The term "King Richard" nods to Compton's pride, aligning with Dre's West Coast legacy. Their interplay showcases their creative synergy.

Chorus

Alus’s chorus blends sultry tones with cheeky references, playing on themes of seduction and surprise. The line "Pennies dropping outta da blue" is both literal and figurative, describing moments of unexpected indulgence.

Final Verses

The verses come full circle with playful lyricism and punchlines. Dre’s “Still Dre” line reinforces his staying power, while Snoop wraps up with clever wordplay, ending on a note of pure bravado.

Lyrics

Outta Da Blue by Snoop Dogg

[Intro]
Roll it up
Light it up
Hands up
Yeah, nigga, what's up?

[Verse 1: Snoop Dogg]
Bottles and b**ches, believe we back in business (Back in business)
The sh*t I be smoking is highly recommended (Highly recommended)
This for all of my niggas pushing the limit
Mile high, got me over here bending the flight attendants

[Verse 2: Dr. Dre]
Yeah, I been around the world and I-I-I
Ain't seen a mutherf**king thing that I can't buy
See, reaching these types of heights, it come with a third eye
I'm better at betting on me, the numbers don't lie

[Verse 3: Snoop Dogg]
Huh, that's how we rolling, nigga, you know them gold diggers
Want the pick of the litter, burying them hidden figures
I keep them triple hitters, call 'em silverback gorillas
Going ape sh*t, and you know ain't nobody f**king with us

[Verse 4: Dr. Dre]
Hah, showtime nigga, yeah this is the big ticket
Coach at Compton, I'm talking that King Richard
This sh*t just like a movie, I'm seeing the bigger picture
Since Snoop couldn't get much higher, but I beg to differ
[Verse 5: Snoop Dogg & Dr. Dre]
Uh, on sight, I give you the green light
Some niggas is all bark, my nigga, we all bite
You gambling with your life? Well f**k it, let's roll the dice
There'll be some motherf**king problems if this dog in a fight (That's right)

[Chorus: Alus & Snoop Dogg]
Maybe I'm just tryna get high (Smoking the legendary)
Thighs high, open them wide (Something like missionary)
Mind if I pull up with a few? (We can arrange that)
Pennies dropping outta da blue (You know I bang that)
All I wanna do is bla-bla-bla-blaow
And then, and then, just take your money
All I wanna do is bla-bla-bla-blaow
And then, and then, just take your money

[Verse 6: Dr. Dre & Snoop Dogg]
Uh, Hip-Hop, took sh*t global, we done did it
Huh, wanna see your mogul, we showing you how to pivot
Got this sh*t from DMC, let's run with it (Check)
Took the fundamentals and have us some fun with it

[Verse 7: Snoop Dogg & Dr. Dre]
These songs, King Kong, my team strong
Godzilla, set fire to whatever I breathe on
Got the killers and choir all singing my theme song
I could never do this alone
Then motherf**ker, come on!
[Verse 8: Dr. Dre & Snoop Dogg]
Still Dre, still on top, still got it
The sonic still iconic, they still sniffing the product
I seen the money coming, I showed you that I'm a prophet
And I'm riding shotgun in case niggas get out of pocket

[Verse 9: Snoop Dogg]
Why you wanna press the issue, my nigga, you need to stop it
Keep a lawyer on retainer for depositions and dockets (Uh)
Back to the topic in case you niggas forgot it
Anonymous head bobbing, baby keep that pussy popping for me

[Chorus: Alus & Snoop Dogg]
Maybe I'm just tryna get high (Smoking the legendary)
Thighs high, open them wide (Something like missionary)
Mind if I pull up with a few? (We can arrange that)
Pennies dropping outta da blue (You know I bang that)
All I wanna do is bla-bla-bla-blaow
And then, and then, just take your money
All I wanna do is bla-bla-bla-blaow
And then, and then, just take your money
