• This single from Rick Ross' fifth studio album, God Forgives, I Don't starts off with Hip-Hop veteran Dr. Dre comparing his early rapping days to his current success. "We started out mopping floors. And now we front row at the awards," he spits. The Bawse takes up the baton in which he proclaims his taste in woman ("I only love her if her ass fat") and ambition ("We used to listen to this track in my Maybach. I'm just tryna be a billionaire"). A third member of Hip-Hop royality, Jay-Z, closes out the track in which he manages to reference both his daughter and his riches: "Niggas couldn't f--- with my daughter's room. Niggas couldn't walk in my daughter's socks," spits The Throne rhymer.
• This was the first time that Dre and Jay have appeared on the same commercial release. It was the Aftermath label creator whom Ross called first. "I got on the phone with Dre and we just talkin' about collaborating and he was gonna come down to Miami for the first time to record with me in my element, in my zone," the Maybach Music CEO told MTV news. So Dre flew down to Florida around Rozay's birthday in January. "I walked in the studio, I seen big homey, I turnt up," Ross recalled. "First night in the studio we went and did five records."
  
  The Bawse then contacted Jay-Z to complete the treble sovereign line-up. "Jay-Z, that's my big homey man and from day one anything I've ever asked O.G. for he always came through for me, so it's vice-versa," he told MTV News. "He got a gangsta right here for life."
• Songwriters Clara Shepherd Warrick and Jimmy Lee Weary filed a copyright lawsuit in February 6, 2013 over this song. The pair own the rights to gospel group The Crowns Of Glory's 1976 tune "I'm So Grateful (Keep In Touch)," which according to the lawsuit, Ross failed to get the proper permission to sample. Though God Forgives, I Don't lists Jimmy Lee Weary as one of the writers of this song, the duo claimed he was never come contacted for permission or compensated.
