Ahh yeah

Yeauhh!
[2Pac]
It's all about you, one time!
[Down]
I'ma say it's all about you baby, yeah
[2Pac]
Haha, for the b*tches that think it's all about you
It's all about you
[Down]
This Dru Down in the house, with my boy 'Pizznac
YouknowhatI'msayin?
[2Pac]
It's all about you
[Down]
Yeah I'm gon' say it's all about you
but you know I'm lyin though, hah! Yeauhh

[2Pac]
You probably crooked as the last trick; want it light
But how I got my ass caught up with this bad b*tch
Thinkin I had her but she had me in the long run
It's just my luck I'm stuck with f*ckin with the wrong one, uh!
Wise decisions, based on lies we livin
Scandalous times, this game's like my religion
You could be rollin with a thug
Instead you with this weak scrub, lookin for some love
In every club, I see you starin like you want it
Well baby if you got it better flaunt it
Let the liquor help you get up on it
I'm still tipsy from last night
Bumpin these walls as I pause, addicted to the fast life
I try to holla but you tell me you taken
Sayin you ain't impressed, with the money I'm makin
Guess it's true what they tellin me
Fresh out of jail, life's Hell for a black, celebrity
So that's the reason why I call, and maybe you widdit
Fantansies of us sweatin, can I hit it? (Hahaha)
Addicted to the things you do, but still true
What I'm sayin Boo, is this is all about you

[Nate Dogg]
Every other city we go, every other vi-de-o
(It's all about you)
No matter where I go, I see the same hoe
(Yeah n*gga, ha ha ha ha!)
Every other city we go, every other vi-de-o
(It's all about you)
No matter where I go, I see the same hoe

[2Pac]
I make a promise if you go with me, just let me know
I'll have you hollerin my name out before I leave
Nobody loves me I'm a thug n*gga; I only hung out
With the criminals and the drug dealers, I love n*ggaz
Cause we comin from the same place
Witness me holla at a hoochie, see how quick, the game takes
How can I tell her I'm a playa, and I don't even care
Creep though, weed smoke's into the air
Everywhere I go, it's all about the groupie hoes
Waitin for n*ggaz at the end, of every show
I just seen you in my friend's, video
Could never put a b*tch before my friends, so here we go
Follow the leader and peep the drama that I'm goin through..
It's all about you.. hahaha, yeah n*gga!
It's all about you!

[Nate Dogg]
Every other city we go, every other vi-de-o
(It's all about you)
No matter where I go, I see the same hoe
Every other city we go, every other vi-de-o
(It's all about you)
No matter where I go, I see the same hoe

[Outlawz]
Is you sick from the d*ck, or is it the flu?
It ain't about you or your b*tch ass crew
Every other city we go and every video
Explain to a n*gga why I see the same sh*tty hoe
You think it's all about you? Well Boo
I gets Down like Dru and my nasty new n*ggaz, too

You couldn't hold me back, it'd take a fatter track
A lyrical attack, perhaps, it was a visual bluff
When I started to snaps all your rode 'em swoll
Straight in control, flows'll fold, while hoes cold stroll
Hold the set, I told Dramacy' go in next
Golddiggin, cold diggin a gold Rolex

I slide in easily, try a grizzly
Sluts know the cuts, I came to f*ck, try skeezin me
Runnin up in ya just like Bruce Jenner when I bend ya
At the most, I f*cked a b*tch from the West Coast to West Virginia

[Nate Dogg]
Every other city we go, every other vi-de-o
(It's all about you)
No matter where I go, I see the same hoe
Every other city we go, every other vi-de-o
(It's all about you)
No matter where I go, I see the same hoe
Every other city we go, every other vi-de-o
(It's all about you)
No matter where I go, I see the same hoe
Every other city we go, every other vi-de-o
No matter where I go, I see the same hoe

[Snoop Doggy Dogg speaking over last two lines]
I'm tellin ya, it's the same ol' sh*t
I mean.. god damn, youknowhatI'msayin?
I'm sittin back, watchin Montell Jordan video
I see the same b*tch, who was in, my homeboy Nate Dogg video
Then I flip the channel
I'm checkin out my homeboy Tupac video
I see the same b*tch that was in my video, yaknahmsayin?
And then yaknahmsayin what make that even mo' f*cked up
I'm watchin a Million Man March
And I see the same b*tch, on the Million Man March
that was in, the homeboy Warren G video!
I mean, damn, everywhere I look, everywhere I go
I see the same hoe
Don't get mad, I'm only bein real
Yeah

Listen to "All About U"

Song details

"All About U" is the fourth single by 2Pac off his All Eyez on Me album. The song samples "Candy" by Cameo and features Nate Dogg singing the chorus, with the third and final verse split between Yaki Kadafi and Hussein Fatal, members of Outlawz. Dru Down and Snoop Dogg both have spoken parts in the song, Dru Down in the beginning and Snoop Dogg at the end, though neither raps.

In 1998, a version titled "All About U", with an added verse by Top Dogg in the place of Snoop Dogg's spoken part on the original, was included on 2Pac's Greatest Hits album. "All About You" was released as a 12" vinyl single on October 14, 2005 with "Thug Passion" as the b-side.

Two music videos were shot for the song. The first was just 2Pac, the second included all the guest artists from the track plus comedian Pierre Edwards. In 2006, fellow West Coast rapper The Game would use Snoop Dogg's outro as his outro for his song "Wouldn't Get Far" which also was heavily inspired by this particular song.

From THE MAKING OF 2PAC - "ALL EYEZ ON ME" (from XXL Magazine):

Nate Dogg: "It was me, him and Snoop, and we was talking about all the girls that we had seen before. The whole thing came from a video shoot. We was at a video shoot, and it was so funny how, if it wasn't Snoop that knew the girl, 2Pac knew her, or I knew her. It's like, "Damn, everywhere we go, we see the same girls." And that's how the song came about. It was the same as it always is: A little liquor, a little weed, we aight. 'Pac was one-taking his verses. He did that a lot. We was having so much fun, the song just came out."

Johnny J: "That was one of the most hilarious records I've ever done with 2pac....I used Cameo's old school cut [1986 single, "Candy"]. Nate Dogg, Snoop, everybody sitting around on speakers, doing their thing. Next thing I know [sings]: "Every other city we go. Every other video..." I'm like, "Nate, I know you gotta be f*cking playing." They're like, "Nah, man. We're dead serious. That's the hook- we're talking about video hoes"

Dru Down: "It was me, 'Pac, Syke, Rage and a couple Outlawz in the studio. We always had b*tches in the studio. The only thing crazy was, the Outlawz n*ggas-Fatal Hussein and Yafeu Fula-was gonna get on the track. It was like an interlude at the end. I did the beginning [uncredited ad-lib-bing]: they was gonna do something at the end. Then them muthaf*ckas did something where they f*cked up. They couldn't get it right. They was too high and too drunk. They was messing up. They was in the microphone booth, and they was f*cking up, and 'Pac said, "Y'all gotta get the f*ck up out of there. I don't know what the f*ck ya'll are doing." They was just playing around. They was taking too long, wasting time. They laughed they ass up in there and all the way out."
