Huh? I was pretty surprised. Everybody knows the first line of "Paid in Full," it’s pure gold: "Thinkin’ of a master plan," right? Quickly, I figured that Snoop would be starting the song out with its untouchable opening phrase and then launching from there into his own rap. But no: "cause ain’t nothin’ but sweat inside my hand," he said, and then "so I dig into my pockets, all my money is spent/so dig deeper, but still comin’ up with lint." Wait a minute, wait a minute, I thought. He’s not re-sampling that bass line: he’s doing a cover of "Paid in Full."
