Rick Ross, Dr. Dre & Jay-Z link up for a heavyweight collaboration.

After hearing Rick Ross talk about his studio sessions with Dre, which ultimately led to five tracks from the duo, I had to go back and revisit "3 Kings." The God Forgives I Don't track is pretty much embodies the meeting of the bosses motif, and the three iconic characters trade ostentatious verses over a grandiose Jake One beat.

While some were initially underwhelmed given the big names attached, the track has aged rather gracefully; in fact, the lavish luxury raps are all the more meaningful now that Dre, Jigga & Rozay's entrepreneurial legacies have flourished even further. Rediscover royalty with "3 Kings," and bow in the presence of greatness.

Quotable Lyrics

He wanted to shine at the swap meet
Till the white boys got him in that hot seat
I only love it when her hair long
You should listen to this beat through my headphones
Money long, number one twenty years strong
Fuck a gym, I am him, I'm Andre Young
