The Neptunes / Snoop "Drop It Like It's Hot" joint - anyone notice the distortion in the synth brass stab part?

I gots the CD single and imported into iTunes and sounds horrid bad during that little turn-around. Thought it must have been an error on import (somehow?) but then I just saw the clip on MTV and it distorted there as well!

Am I losing it?
THis happens in a lot more commercial releases then you'd expect. I remember hearing an awful digital clip in a britney spears track. When you're driving everything as hard as they do in pop today it doesn't surprise me at all that a few too many 1s creep through and end up audible. It is sloppy tho.
