    Warren G had the smoothest voice and beats on all his albums. I loved Dope Beat, Lovin’ Me Now, Smokin’ Me Out… I could go on. Every time I hear The Shack, I feel like no other beat is comparable to that song. Much love to Warren and for providing a unique sound that hasn’t been duplicated.

You have no Def Jam...you have no Rocafella, Murder Inc or Ruff Ryders. The similar move in the movie world was Wesley Snipes Blade saved Marvel Films. Howard the Duck damn near bankrupted them.

    Warren single handly saved DEF JAM this is something nobody talks about. Def Jam was failing, nearly bankrupt and Russell's business savvy along with his keen sense for hiphop talent knew what the legendary east coast label needed. Russ signed Warren and the Regulator project took off like a rocket ended up selling multi platinum. With those funds Russ got himself out the financial jam rebuilt Def Jam's reputation and sold to the highest bidder.

  • @artiemulford8445

    The guy came up w/ Snoop & Nate in 213 ... made a lot of those Deathrow connections come together b/c of the relationships he made, coupled with the fact that he was Dre's younger brother.
    His first album sold 3 million copies on Def Jam Records & I believe his next 2 LPs went Gold (that 3rd album was indie too, which means he probably made $$$)
    He had 1 of the biggest songs of the 90's, Regulate w/ Nate Dogg that was nominated for a Grammy & so was his own single "This DJ"
    Appeared on numerous classic albums for Dre, Snoop, etc & is heavily associated with one of the most dominant rap crews in one of the greatest eras of hip hop
    I guess he probably missed some of the Deathrow tours & parties from that era, but who knows? Everything happens for a reason.
    So I definitely understand why he's not bitter - not too many people can list off Warren G's accomplishments in the rap game or the music industry in general.

    Now that Snoop owns Death Row, Warren G could get a contract and finally be part of it.

    I seen Warren G in Spokane year before everything shut down. He was in the hotel section of casino he had concert at. I brought my I want it all CD cover that day, and happened to see him and got it signed. I walked up to him and asked for him to sign it and took picture with him. I was big Stan that day. Snoop and Warren concert was one of the best I been to. I think it was crazy how I ran into him to get my CD signed. Didn't get my Doggy Style cover signed but 1/2 is good.
