8) Fuck wit Dre Day – Dr. Dre featuring Snoop Doggy Dogg
Some of the most scathing diss records come in situations where one-time friends turn into enemies. And this brings us to Dr. Dre’s Fuck wit Dre Day off his masterpiece debut album The Chronic. It is well known about the nasty breakup and separation of one of Hip Hop’s most influential groups, N.W.A. This led to multiple diss records from each one-time member, but on Dre Day Easy E was the main target.
With the help of a young and upcoming Snoop Doggy Dogg, both Dre and Snoop unleash hilarious lyrics taking shots at Easy E, Tim Dog, Luke Campbell from 2 Live Crew, and a subliminal shot at Ice Cube (Spot him, got him, as I pulls out my strap/got my chrome to the side of his White Sox hat/you trying to check my homie you best check yo’self/cuz when you diss Dre you diss yourself, motherfucker).
What really distinguishes this diss song from others is that it was accompanied with a hysterical music video that adds visual humiliation to Easy E, Luke Campbell, and N.W.A.’s manager Jerry Heller as icing on the cake.
