The single was released one day after Death Row labelmate Tupac Shakur died from injuries sustained in a drive by shooting the week prior.

Everett True from Melody Maker wrote in his review of the single, "Slick, smooth and sinuous cover of The Gap Band.

Apparently the news reporter helped Snoop escape as shown briefly in the music video.

Later he performs in an outdoor concert for his awaiting fans and in the progress gets arrested by the cops and is put back in jail.
