About This Track

Produced by David “Mr. DJ” Sheats

A distorted track, apocalyptic visions, and IFOs “landing in Decatur” compel Big and Dre to make haste to the Dungeon in a last-ditch attempt to make “Mama Earth” one last love song.

Mr. DJ: The Dungeon was Rico’s house, and that was kinda like our headquarters. That was where we all met and where we would hang out and stuff. So Dre was thinking, ‘What if it was the end of the world and we all needed to meet at the Dungeon?’ Like we were all taking our families and going to the Dungeon and meeting up to fight off this New World Order thing. Goodie Mob’s albums were talking about New World Order and that type thing, so it was kinda touching on that.

Andre 3000: I do remember thinking, “What if it was the end of the world and we had to get to the Dungeon on some X-Men superhero shit. I think I was vibing on some end-of-the-world, last-recorded-song shit. Like I always wonder what’s the last song recorded in the world going to sound like?

Mr. DJ If you listen to the verses, that’s mostly what it’s talking about. And the reason we even started talking about that was because that track sounded so combative. It just gave you that whole vibe. When we did music and came up with songs, the titles of songs and the subject matter came from whatever feeling the beat gave you.
