"Bow Wow (That's My Name)" is the second single from Lil' Bow Wow's debut album Beware of Dog. It features fellow rapper Snoop Dogg.

Song info[]

It samples "Dernier Domicile Connu" originally recorded by François de Roubaix and "Atomic Dog" by George Clinton.

Formats and track listings[]

Maxi CD single

Bow Wow (That's My Name) (Track Masters Remix)
Bow Wow (That's My Name) (Going Back To Cali Remix)
Bow Wow (That's My Name) (Radio Edit)
Bow Wow (That's My Name) (Instrumental)

The "radio edit" completely removes Snoop Dogg's rap and instead, includes a new verse. It also removes Lil' Bow Wow's mention of Snoop Dogg and Jermaine Dupri's line as well, making it a song by Lil' Bow Wow only. All versions censor profanities, including the second half of "motherfucker" in Snoop's verse, leading listeners to only hear "woof mother...the Dogg came to play".

Music video[]

The video was shot of Los Angeles directed by Dave Meyers.^[1] It was voted for the #1 video on BET's 106 & Park.^{[citation needed]} It was the first music video on 106 & Park to be retired.
