"Let's Play House" is a song by hip hop duo Tha Dogg Pound featuring Michel'le. The song is the second single released from their debut album Dogg Food. Snoop Dogg, Nate Dogg and Michel'le make appearances in both the song and the video. The song begins with a spoken intro from Dr. Dre.

Original track[]
The song originally featured a very different intro, with different G-funk whistles, various drums in the background, different and more explicit lyrics, a brief verse from Warren G, different pitch in vocals, and an outro verse from Big Pimpin' Delemond that nearly doubled the runtime of the original track versus the final release. The original also does not feature Dr. Dre in the intro. The new track replaced Warren G's verse with one by Daz and Kurupt, and ditched the drums in the original for guitars. This original track never debuted for unknown reasons, but was resurfaced and made public in 2012 with the release of Tha Dogg Pound's compilation album Doggy Bag.[1][2]
