"Real Muthaphuckkin G's," or "Real Compton City G's" in its radio edit, is a diss track released as a single in August 1993 by American rapper Eazy-E with guest rappers Gangsta Dresta and B.G. Knocc Out. Peaking at #42 on Billboard's Hot 100, and the most successful of Eazy's singles as a solo artist,[4] it led an EP, also his most successful, It's On (Dr. Dre) 187um Killa.[5] This diss track answers Eazy's former N.W.A bandmate Dr. Dre and his debuting, guest rapper Snoop Dogg, who had dissed Eazy on Dre's first solo album, The Chronic.

Dresta wrote his own verses and ghostwrote Eazy-E's verses, and B.G. Knocc Out wrote his own verse.[3] They performed the song live at 92.3 The Beat Summer Jam in 1994.
