Warren G Turns Up The Bass To Show He’s Still Regulating 25 Years Later
Twenty-five years ago this month, Warren G unleashed an album that had a hand in saving Def Jam Records through a commercial drought season. The Long Beach, California MC/producer/DJ may have been wrongfully overlooked at Death Row Records, but the “G” in G-Child may have stood for “Golden” at Russell Simmons’ New York City-based imprint, especially with the late Chris Lighty in his corner. Regulate… G Funk Era made a star out of the soft-spoken band-mate of Snoop and Nate Dogg. “Regulate” was a dominant “Regulate” anthem throughout ’94, a collaborate with Nate. First on Tha Row’s Above The Rim soundtrack, later on his own LP, Dr. Dre’s younger step-brother showed that he had what it takes to be a crossover star, without compromising his LBC roots. A Lost Track Featuring Snoop & Dr. Dre Helped Launch Warren G’s G-Funk Era (Audio) As far of his “Bass & Bars” series, bassist Brady Watt gets Warren to breakout his double-platinum hit which nearly topped the charts. Although the original song was laid back, Warren tones it down even further with Watt’s beat-creation.

B-Real & Brady Watt Add Some Dr. Dre & DJ Premier To Cypress Hill’s Biggest Hits
Renowned bass player, producer, and member of DJ Premier’s Badder Band Brady Watt has been bringing his groove to video lately, linking up with MCs and singers for a series of videos he’s calling “Bass & Bars.” Each entry has Watt laying down a bassline for a guest to recite a beloved verse or two from their career. Previous entries in his series include Bun B, Pharoache Monch and MC Eiht. This week, Watt links up with Cypress Hill frontman B-Real as he delivers two classic Cypress Hill verses from 1993’s “Insane In the Brain” and 1991’s “How I Could Just Kill A Man” breakout. B-Real Details How He Developed 1 Of Hip-Hop’s Most Distinctive Voices (Video) As B-Real takes us through his memorable “Insane In the Brain,” Watt enthusiastically rocks alongside the MC, recreating the beat purely on bass. B-Real drops his classic bars on point: “To the one on the flamboyant tempa, / Just toss that ham in the frying pan / Like spam, get done when I come and slam, Damn, I feel like the Son of Sam / Don’t make me wreck sh*t, hectic / Next get the chair got me going like General Electric / ‘Aaaant,’ the lights are blinking, I’m thinking, It’s all over when I go out drinking.” As B-Real spits his last four bars, Watt slickly transitions into a cool rendition of Gang Starr’s “DWYCK,” produced by his band-mate, DJ Premier. As Watt fades out from “DWYCK,” he plays a bass rendition of the “How I Could Just Kill A Man” beat. B-Real dives into his first verse on Cypress Hill’s first ever single, and infamous track off the Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas soundtrack. Before B-Real finishes his verse, Watt slides right into a bass cover of Dr. Dre’s “Dre Day” beat, switching pace with absolute ease.
