201
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 4: g Funk looked like it was created by you and

202
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:21,200
Speaker 4: doctor Dre.

203
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:22,800

Speaker 2: hear names like big Hutch.

205
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 1: Yeah. But the law you'll call one eighty seven. But

Speaker 1: the law camg go Mac, total chaos, Laylaw, cocaine. They

207
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,320
Speaker 1: took me in when I was when I was a

208
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:42,599

00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 1: Laylan and one eighty seven had had took me in

211
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 1: and I started hanging with them, you know, And that's

212
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:54,640
Speaker 1: why I say that that one eight seven taught me

213
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 1: a lot as far as the NPC sixty as well

214
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: as Dre, but they made me G funk. You know,

215
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 1: they was already saying, uh, gangster Funk, g funk. So

216
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 1: but what I did was I took, you know, the

217
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 1: my mop you know, for me being in it. I

218
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,840
Speaker 1: took and branched it off, and I said the g

219
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 1: funk era, you know, just it's still this, but then

220
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:21,959
Speaker 1: I started my own sound within uh, the gangster Funk

221
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 1: and made it the g funk era, and you know

222
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 1: it's it's hey, those the guys that that put me

223
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:31,440
Speaker 1: in it, and I took it and made it worldwide,

224
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 1: you know, for the world to know what g funk

225
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 1: was about, along with Snoop and Dre everybody saying g

226
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 1: funk as well.

227
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 2: So if G Funk had a mount Rushmore, who would

228
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 2: be on it?

229
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 1: Like?

230
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 2: Who do people forget that? I guess what would be

231
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 2: the Brothers, right?

232
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:50,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, but the Law would definitely be on there ship.

233
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,599
Speaker 2: Uh uh, you don't know.

234
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 1: I ain't that I'm saying I'll be on there too,

235
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:05,080
Speaker 1: uh uh. Laylaw because he he was he was the

236
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: head head guy over everything. Recipes. Lay Law recipes go Mac.

237
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 1: But he was the the head honcho of Gfunk And

238
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 1: like I said, I got my branch and created uh,

239
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 1: the Gfunk era, you know. And that's when I took

240
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 1: took it worldwide. And but then was my guys they

241
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 1: set it up. That's that's it right there.

242
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 2: When did they dog come into the picture.

243
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:38,240

328
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,400
Speaker 1: I had to decide, like because there was other companies

329
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,680
Speaker 1: coming in after that, you know, started piling up. I

330
00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 1: guess the word got around. So I had to think about,

331
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:33,199
Speaker 1: you know, who would be best for hip hop? Right,

332
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 1: So I had a flashback. I went all the way

333
00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:42,640
Speaker 1: back to Crush Groove, the Beastie Boys, Fat Boys, Run

334
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 1: DMC and Russell and Rick Rubin and I'm like, this

335
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:48,840

339
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,440
Speaker 1: I want to row with these people because they hip hop.

340
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:10,440

343
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,400
Speaker 3: Said, you saved the label. During that time, they said

344
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 3: the label was going through a lot of yeah, of

345
00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 3: losing money and artists weren't selling. They said, you revitalized

346
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 3: the label back then.

347
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I didn't know it. I didn't know it,

348

Speaker 1: had signed right with with Sony, but we were we

410
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:07,560

411
00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:11,240

416
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 4: the death row circle as far as like being signed,

417
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:26,320

Speaker 1: Know, should uh.

419
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 3: Because I probably right?

420
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:34,119
Speaker 1: Yeah? Well yeah, I was right or die. Uh.

421
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 2: The politics was your personality was somebody.

422
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,399
Speaker 1: I think, you know what what what what kind of

423
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 1: uh you know, had Shug pissed off at me? Was

424
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 1: because I wasn't like one of those type of artists

425
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 1: that had just signed any other fucking thing, and you know,

426
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 1: and we was presented with contracts, so I told everybody,

427
00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 1: we need to get lawyers to look at these kinds

428
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,880
Speaker 1: tracks before we signed them. So, you know, the word

429
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 1: that got back to him that I was trying to

430
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 1: get a lawyer to look at the contracts. So he

431
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:11,160
Speaker 1: came out pissed off.

432
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:12,680
Speaker 2: Because you was doing the right thing.

433
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 1: Because because I was doing that, nigga that exactly that

434
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 1: nigga wouldn't have even had been doing the same shit.

435
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:20,840
Speaker 1: So I'm like, how can you get mad at me?

436
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 1: So that's he's probably pissed off about that. And then

437
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,879
Speaker 1: you know, I just wasn't. I wasn't like, you know,

438
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:31,919
Speaker 1: with a lot of shit. I wasn't gonna just follow

439
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 1: whatever everybody else was doing. I wanted to do my

440
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 1: own shit. I ain't gonna you know, I you know,

441
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,120
Speaker 1: they not like I always say, I ain't. I ain't

442
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 1: really that he been knowing me since I was like fifteen,

443
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:48,720
Speaker 1: sixteen years old, you know. So it's just like I

444
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:50,959
Speaker 1: hadn't known this motherfucker all my life. I ain't even

445
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:55,280
Speaker 1: ready to be man, I'm cool. Uh, But that that's

446
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,200
Speaker 1: probably was that probably was one of the main things

447
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,399
Speaker 1: that that uh you know, had him pissed off. And

448
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 1: then I used to get into it with with different

449
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 1: guys around, but I just wasn't wasn't with the bullshit,

450
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 1: you know. And and he had talked shit about me

451
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 1: here and there, and then I talked ship back just

452
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 1: to let him know, like, but to be facts, you know,

453
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,399
Speaker 1: I ain't gonna say something that's a lie, you know.

454
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,360
Speaker 1: And but at the end of the day, I ain't.

455
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 1: I ain't got nothing against that dude. He it is

456
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 1: what it is. He do what he do. I just

457
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 1: keep pushing and doing what I do, you know. And

458
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 1: and and actually it was a blessing that I didn't

459
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 1: go that route because it turned out even better for me.

460
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 4: You know.

461
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,920
Speaker 1: I'm able to do whatever I want to do. I

462
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 1: can go every wherever I want to go. And that's

463
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,439
Speaker 1: why I came to the East Coaches to be different,

464
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 1: you know than the regular the same old, same old,

465
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,400
Speaker 1: just to get away, you know. And and and when

466
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,480

622
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:56,720

Speaker 1: That was a me and mister Graham record, and I

625
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:08,040
Speaker 1: gave it to him. They was like, we want to

626
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 1: use this so because I had it just how Little

627
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 1: Ghetto Boy sound, but I had the drums going boom

628
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:20,200
Speaker 1: boom backs, boom boom boom backs. And then Drake took

629
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 1: it and changed the drums and did it the way

630
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:28,120

Speaker 1: good records for him too. They was dope, and was

697
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 1: also at that time a lot of press was against him.

698
00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 1: So I was telling him to do a song to

699
00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 1: you know, express yourself about you know, because everybody was down,

700

701
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:24,799
Speaker 1: came later on with the kids stuff. It wasn't none

702
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:27,600
Speaker 1: of that stuff. It was some stuff before that. They

703
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:29,600
Speaker 1: was trying to criticize him over and I was telling

704
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 1: him to fight back and talk about it, like express

705
00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:36,120
Speaker 1: yourself about how you feel about how these people are

706
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:36,719
Speaker 1: attacking you.

707
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,920

00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:40,439
Speaker 2: not sure.

709
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:42,600
Speaker 1: I'm not sure, but he was. He was being attacked,

710
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:46,240
Speaker 1: and I just told him to just you know, express

711
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:47,840
Speaker 1: itself that way. You know.

712
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:49,520
Speaker 2: I want to go back to the credit thing.

713
00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:53,040
Speaker 4: Do you think West Coast history would look different if

714
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:54,520
Speaker 4: the credits were truly accurate?

715
00:38:55,680 --> 00:39:02,319
Speaker 1: Yo, Yeah, it definitely would look good from my pocket. Nah,

716
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:07,080
Speaker 1: but uh uh uh yeah, I mean it it would.

717
00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:10,120
Speaker 1: It would look different. You know, people people would you know,

718
00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:14,760
Speaker 1: would would really be like damn. So you was really involved,

719
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 1: you know, and know that I did have input, and

720
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 1: I ain't trying to Like I said, I ain't never

721
00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:22,279
Speaker 1: trying to take nothing away from Drake because he is

722
00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:26,040
Speaker 1: He's that's my sense, you know what I mean. And

723
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 1: he's one of the dopest producers in the game, you know.

724
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 1: But I did get down with him, you know, me

725

Speaker 1: blow him up. You know.

729
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:47,440
Speaker 4: It's interesting people always ask all those questions. They don't

730
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 4: never ask Dre But if as he probably would just

731
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:51,759
Speaker 4: tell you if you asked him, you know what I'm.

732
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:55,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't think the nigga do interviews

733
00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:55,879
Speaker 1: that much.

734
00:39:56,880 --> 00:40:00,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, but I mean it is what it is,

735
00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 4: uh you know, uh, was regulate your way of saying

736
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:08,520
Speaker 4: I don't need Dre, I don't need Sugar, I don't

737
00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:10,880
Speaker 4: need Snoop, I don't need nobody to make a class.

738
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 1: No. That was just regularly was just just you know,

739
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:20,360
Speaker 1: just wanted to I just wanted to do ah, just

740
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:22,680
Speaker 1: be different, you know, I wanted to take a record

741
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:26,240
Speaker 1: something that that not that's not too hard and sounding

742
00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:30,040
Speaker 1: too gangster, but having a good feeling but still telling

743
00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:34,239
Speaker 1: the story on it. And then you know, mimic well,

744
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:37,279
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. We mimicked uh what Snoop and

745
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:39,920
Speaker 1: dra did. We did it a little bit different, but

746
00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:42,759
Speaker 1: we was doing the back and forth like they was doing.

747
00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:46,200
Speaker 1: So that was like how Snoop and Drake partnered it up.

748
00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:48,000
Speaker 1: It was me and Nate. That was my partner, that

749
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:52,279
Speaker 1: was my my guy that you know, our chemistry was

750
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:57,000
Speaker 1: incredible like how Snoop and Dre's was. And so we

751
00:40:57,200 --> 00:41:00,640
Speaker 1: just wanted to be different. But that at the same

752
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:04,239
Speaker 1: time ship, Hey, letting letting these niggas know ship. I

753
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,680
Speaker 1: could do my ship outside of y'all ship, you know,

754
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:10,880
Speaker 1: like you said, Hey, I'm dope too, So and I

755
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:13,479
Speaker 1: went and started doing my own thing, like fuck this ship,

756
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 1: I'm gone you.

757
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:16,319
Speaker 2: Think it would be easier to tell that story if

758
00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:17,200
Speaker 2: Nate was still here.

759
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 1: It very easy, Yeah, very easy, boy Nate to be

760
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:26,600
Speaker 1: going in, he would go in. I actually tried to.

761
00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:31,080
Speaker 1: I tried to sign Nate uh over at death Jam

762
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:35,840
Speaker 1: had a bag on the table for him, and sure

763
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:39,839
Speaker 1: got at him before I could. And so he went

764
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:42,719
Speaker 1: and did to deal with with uh with death row.

765
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:44,560
Speaker 1: And then I told him what I had for him

766
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:49,240
Speaker 1: on the table, and he was like, nigga, what I said, Nigga,

767
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:51,399
Speaker 1: I've been trying to tell your motherfucking ass the whole

768
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:54,120
Speaker 1: time that this is on the table for you, but

769
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:58,520
Speaker 1: you wanted to go ahead and dip, so you know,

770
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:02,640
Speaker 1: but it's still worked out again because I would, I

771
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,680
Speaker 1: would involve him in a bunch of things that I

772
00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:08,000
Speaker 1: was doing, like to nobody, No, nobody does it better.

773
00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 1: I was. That was like I did that for him

774
00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:16,040
Speaker 1: two to to build him up. And that's that became

775
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:18,960

902
00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:23,359
Speaker 1: around family functions. When we would have functions, everybody having

Speaker 1: but just not serious, but just family reunion type stuff.

906
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:38,160
Speaker 1: And it stuck with me. So I started doing it

907
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:42,080

00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:54,719
Speaker 1: where I got serious about it. I was grilling at first,

911
00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:58,240
Speaker 1: and then I got into the smoke world and started

912
00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:00,319

Speaker 1: and uh, they embraced me and showed me a lot

915
00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:10,960

Speaker 1: somebody might may have told him some shit or said

1032
00:56:08,239 --> 00:56:10,440
Speaker 1: some shit, because a lot of motherfuckers that do that

1033
00:56:10,640 --> 00:56:13,560
Speaker 1: just to get up under a person, you know, they'll say, well,

Speaker 1: got nothing against him, you know, but that shit just

1037
00:56:23,960 --> 00:56:26,560
Speaker 1: was kind of weird, you know when I look up

1038
00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:29,759

00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:39,600
Speaker 1: you know, and pull it, put it all out, put

1042
00:56:39,640 --> 00:56:41,080
