During the interview, Dr. Dre recounted a particularly amusing story about a blind double date gone wrong.
Despite the awkward experience, the mishap had a silver lining, leading to the creation of one of their most famous tracks.
Dre began by describing the setup:
“When we got there, this girl opened the door and she was beautiful. I thought it was mine and it wasn’t. Snoop pushed me out the way like, ‘Nah cuz, that’s me.’ When I turned that corner and saw mine, I was really disappointed,” And we drove for like an hour in Hurricane Katrina to get there and I was extremely disappointed. The good part about that is when we left that situation, the next day we went to the studio and made ‘Nuthin’ But A ‘G’ Thang.’”
