Again](/source/Year_of_the_Dog..._Again)* (2006). The song features vocals and [production](/source/Hip-hop_production) from longtime friend and collaborator [Swizz Beatz](/source/Swizz_Beatz). The song is also known as a [diss track](/source/Diss_(music)) towards his old label [Def Jam Recordings](/source/Def_Jam_Recordings). ## Background The song was produced by [Swizz Beatz](/source/Swizz_Beatz), who also contributed vocals on the chorus, various [ad-libs](/source/Ad_libitum) between verses, and a short introductory passage at the beginning. The [beat](/source/Beat_(music)) contained the trademark Swizz Beatz siren throughout, as well as horn sounds and pounding drums. The song [samples](/source/Sampling_(music)) [Clarence Reid](/source/Blowfly_(musician))'s "Nobody but You Babe".[1] ### Rihanna diss Towards the end of verse three, a short diss is sent towards [Rihanna](/source/Rihanna): "And for the record, what you gonna do to fill up my spot? I ain't gon' front, that [Pon de Replay](/source/Pon_de_Replay) shit was kinda hot, not! How you gonna jack [Will Smith](/source/Will_Smith) for a beat? That's like tryna jack me for the streets! It ain't happenin'!", This was probably because Rihanna signed to [Def Jam Recordings](/source/Def_Jam_Recordings), the label DMX left because of creative differences. ## Charts Chart Peak position U.S. Billboard Bubbling Under R&B/Hip-Hop Singles[2] 25 U.S. Billboard Pop 100[3] 90 ## References 1. **[^](#cite_ref-1)** ["DMX's We in Here sample of Clarence Reid's Nobody but You Babe"](http://www.whosampled.com/sample/view/33330/DMX-We%20in%20Here_Clarence%20Reid-Nobody%20but%20You%20Babe/).
