Strip clubs are venues that regularly provide adult entertainment, predominantly in the form of striptease or other erotic or exotic dances. Strip clubs typically adopt a nightclub or bar style, and can also adopt a theatre or cabaret-style. American-style strip clubs began to appear outside of North America after World War II, arriving in Asia in the late 1940s and Europe in the 1950s, where they competed against the local English and French styles of striptease and erotic performances.
As of 2005, the size of the global strip club industry was estimated to be US$75 billion. In 2002, the size of the U.S. strip club industry was estimated to be US$3.1 billion, generating 19% of the total gross revenue in legal adult entertainment.SEC filings and state liquor control records available at that time indicated that there were at least 2,500 strip clubs in the United States, and since that time, the number of clubs in the U.S. has grown. Profitability of strip clubs, as with other service-oriented businesses, is largely driven by location and customer spending habits. The better appointed a club is, in terms of its quality of facilities, equipment, furniture, and other elements, the more likely customers are to encounter cover charges and fees for premium features such as VIP rooms. The popularity of a given club is an indicator of its quality, as is the word-of-mouth among customers who have visited a cross section of clubs in different regions.
"Let's Ride" is a song performed by rapper The Game for his second album, Doctor's Advocate. The song was written by The Game and Scott Storch and was released as the album's second single on September 25, 2006. The Game mentioned on radio station KDAY in Los Angeles, California that the track was recorded in Miami, Florida, but had the feel of a West Coast Dr. Dre record. The song peaked at number 46 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The song heavily references Let Me Ride released by Dr. Dre in 1993.
"Let's Ride" received mediocre reviews from music critics. MusicOMH wrote that the track "lacks in any of the vigour and enthusiasm that came with his debut major release album".Pitchfork Media gave the song a negative review saying, "What an embarrassment this song turned out to be, lumberingly obvious and poorly crafted from the first awkward gang reference to the last Dre namedrop."About.com's Henry Adaso called the track "just another boring mantra devoid of substance" with The Game delivering "a lethargic sprawl, replete with 50 Cent-esque crooning and tautological Dre odes ("Ain't nuthin' but a G thang, baby, it's a G thang")."Entertainment Weekly, in a review of Doctor's Advocate, wrote that the song "recycle[s] Dre's signature high-pitched synths and plinking pianos" and is "marred by stale rhymes chronicling cartoonish gangbanging."Chocolate magazine said the track "lacks charisma and substance, and is filled with 50 Cent-style tuneless crooning, endless name checks for Aftermath, Eminem and Dr. Dre and empty lyrics". There is also an unofficial remix for this song featuring Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg and Xzibit.

The Butterfly, that's old
Let me see the Tootsee Roll
Yeah, 1994
69 Boys backed up by the door next to the DJ
(chorus 1)
Cotton candy sweet to go, let me see that Tootsee Roll
Come on, Tootsee Roll, just make that Tootsee Roll
Here we go, Tootsee Roll, yeah, Tootsee Roll
Let me see that Tootsee Roll
Get on the floor and make that Tootsee Roll
(Chorus 2)
To the left, to the left, to the right, to the right
To the front, to the front, to the back, to the back
Now dip, baby, dip, come on dip, baby, dip
Dip, baby, dip, just dip, baby dip
Just dip, cotton candy free to go
Let me see the Tootsee Roll
I don't know what you've been told
It ain't the butterfly, it's the Tootsee Roll
A brand new dance
Grab a partner and get on the dance floor
And work them hips a little bit
Get to that dip a little bit
Oh yeah, you got it, no whips, baby, no buts about it
And you over there with the long hair
Keep pumpin' that hair up 'cause it ain't hard
Just a brand new dance far the 1991
69 is the place to be, AOC, is what we came to see
(Chorus 4)
I feel a whoop, domino, a whoop, domino
Say what, I feel a whoop, domino, a whoop, domino
Whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop
Whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop
Chorus 1, 2
I fell a whoop, domino, a whoop, domino
Say what, I feel a whoop, domino, a whoop, domino
5, 4, 3, 2, 1
Whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop
Whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop
Verse 1
The butterfly that's old
Chorus 1, 2, 3, 4
Just roll (until song fades)
