lookin' back, how did dr. dre get away with bitin' above the law and kokane so much?

[I love Latina women]

when you really think about it, it's ridiculous how much dre and them bit off them nikkas; from the g funk to the aftermath name jack. these nikkas really are the pioneers of west coast hip hop that dre has gotten a lot of credit for

if cold hadn't bought the g funk to hip hop, dre would've been lost without another sound to perfect and use

when i look back now, cold really is like everythin' dre is hyped up to be

and before anyone says, but where's above the law's the chronic album? or where's their doggystyle? to that i say, black mafia life album = the chronic and doggystyle = uncle sam's curse

 

[RandomDudeOnColi]

Because people were more familiar with Dre and figured he came up with it all.

Not going to get into a whole back and forth about Above The Law vs. Dr. Dre OP as I am aware of the history, but you posted 'Black Mafia Life' which came out AFTER 'The Chronic'.

yeah but it's known that above the law had been workin' on that album prior to dre leavin' ruthless

cats like warren g and even snoop (snoop was originally down with hutch and them 1st till he decided to roll with dre) were around their camps before death row got started, so i'm sure along with dre they heard and were influenced greatly from what hutch was already workin' on with that album

shyt, hutch's influence was already shown on dre with n.w.a.'s nikkaz4life album

I can't stress how understated Above The Law was

Black mafia life is still a masterpiece

Yep. Pretty sure it was fully recorded and set for release before Dre made The Chronic.

It's sad that Erick Sermon didn't get enough credit for G-Funk.

The orgins go from 91'-93' between ATL's Vocally Pimpin+nikkaz4Life+Deep Cover...Everybody knows Hutch and them was doin they thing on the music tip behind the scenes, but of course Dre was known to jack credits for songs he didn't write & beats he didn't do himself...No surprise that Hutch finally called him out the shyt in The Source in '93 and

It's sad that Erick Sermon didn't get enough credit for G-Funk.

erick sermon was known for samplin' funky records before dre but it was necessarily g funk per say. just because someone sample funky records, don't make it g funk

with that said, i hear you though. erick sermon definitely is underrated these days in terms of his influence and impact on the game though

Chronic was recorded in 91' after N4L and dropped at the end of 92'
BML didn't drop till 93' but they're pretty much twins the way Dre bit Hutch's sound so hard...The casual fans don't really care to get it and of course Dre and his circle won't ever *ahem* recognize even after all these years smh

Alwayz into Sumthin was the first G Funk track to my knowledge..I might be wrong though.
