"*diamond* in the back, sunroof top, diggin' the scene w/the gangsta lean,
woo-hoo-ooo..."

the "gangsta lean" is a way of checking out what's happening on the street
(i.e. your homies, etc) while still manuevering your vehicle. what you do
is
control the steering wheel w/your pinky (power-steering required) while
(actually) leaning out of the window--as if to say "what up?!"
all you blaxploitation fans know what i'm talking about...

eazy & co. were merely biting the past to embellish the future...
