Remixes
There is a remix of the song entitled One Eight Seven, later known as "Deep Cover - The Remix" on the Fuck Wit Dre Day 12" single and on the 1995 album One Million Strong, and the Death Row compilation, "Dr. Dre Chronicles: Deathrow Classics". The remix has a slightly modified sample and alternate lyrics. It is also a minute shorter. The title, which is also a part of the chorus, refers to the police code, which stands for Murder in the state of California. A song by Big Pun, featuring Fat Joe, called "Twinz (Deep Cover '98)", from his album Capital Punishment, featured the same beat and different lyrics. It is featured in the video games Saints Row 2, True Crime: New York City, and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, on the rap radio station The Liberty Jam. Snoop makes an appearance in the "Twinz" music video as acknowledgment for the remix. Ghostface Killah from the Wu-Tang Clan and DJ Green Lantern used the instrumental for their 'Internet Invasion' Mixtape's first song. The Game used the beat on his song "200 Bars & Running," which dissed Joe Budden, Memphis Bleek, Domination and Bang 'Em Smurf. He also had a similar-sounding beat on his song "911 Is A Motherfucking Joke (Cop Killa)". English grime-artist, Giggs, used a similar beat for his song "Monsta Man".
