Gin And Juice
"Gin and Juice" is a song by American rapper Snoop Dogg. It was released on January 18, 1994, as the second single from his debut album, ''Doggystyle''. Lyrics The lyrics depict a party filled with sex, marijuana, and alcohol continuing into the small hours of the morning. The iconic chorus, sung by David Ruffin Jr (D-Ruff), the son of former Temptation David Ruffin is: :Rollin' down the street smokin' indo :Sippin' on gin and juice :Laid back (with my mind on my money and my money on my mind). One critic describes the chorus as representative of "the G-funk tableau" emphasizing cruising culture, consumption of depressants, and materialism. The last line is an example of antimetabole, the figure of speech in which two or more clauses are related to each other through a reversal of structures. The focus on money is shared throughout hip hop, including ''It's All About the Benjamins'', ''Money Makes the World Go Round'', '' Get Money'', and ''Foe tha Love of $''. Product ...
