YG & Lil Wayne, “Miss My Dawgs” | Track Review 🎵

Rapper YG, assisted by Grammy-winning rapper Lil Wayne, join forces for the reflective single, “Miss My Dawgs.”

“Man, I miss my dawgs / Thuggin’ on the block, really pistol in the drawers / Tryna make it out the hood, my dawg had a cause.” 🎙 YG is back with an ode to his dawgs, fittingly titled, 🎵 “Miss My Dawgs”.  It is NOT only him on the track either.  He is joined by 🏆 Grammy-winning rapper 🎙 Lil Wayne, who drops the second verse.  YG handles the chorus, which arrives at the top of the track, as well as the first verse. Fueling both rappers fire is a rhythmic, light, and reflective backdrop courtesy of 🎛 Gibbo and 🎛 Ambezza.

YG does a fabulous job of painting a picture of what his dawgs meant to him.  Early on, in his verse, he defines his dawg as “one who ride for me.” Furthermore, he later spits, “My dawgs kept it honest with me, no if, ands, or probablys / You ain’t my dog if we ain’t ever do no robberies.” Riders through thick and thin! In the second verse, Lil Wayne also misses his dawgs (expectedly), mentioning “Bad-ass memories” and making some epic dog references:

“Niggas act like kittens, tryna scratch a nigga off

All my niggas pits, and I spit like a Saint Bernard

I don’t bark though, that’s my dawg show

She a dog ho, she on all four.”

Never change, Lil Wayne.
