“Doin' Time” was a single off of Sublime’s final album. 

It tells the story of an unfaithful woman who makes her lover feel as if he’s doing time in prison. 

This song takes the melody of George Gershwin’s original "Summertime".

The exact sample came from Herbie Mann’s version of the song played at 45 RPM instead of 33.

There is also a repeating sample taken from Malcolm McLaren’s song Buffalo Gals.

There have been multiple hip-hop remixes of this song, featuring Snoop Dogg and The Pharcyde.

I remixed it with a different drum pattern and other instruments.  For the synths I used a Prophet 6.  The result gives off an electro dub house rhythm.
