The other day, DPD and I had a good talk about how we miss hip-hop from the 90’s..
Then wondered, whatever happened to G-Funk??

Incase you don’t know what G-Funk is, Wikipedia describes it as:
G-Funk, or “Gangsta Funk”, is a type of hip hop music that emerged from West Coast gangsta rap in the early 1990s. G-funk (largely derived from slowing the tempo down of funk music) incorporates multi-layered and melodic synthesizers, slow hypnotic grooves, a deep bass, background female vocals, the extensive sampling of p-funk tunes, and a high portamento sine wave keyboard lead—a feature that became the genre’s notable trademark.

Personally, I think its the best form of hip-hop that emerged from the Westcoast (notably Long Beach, CA - biyatch!!!).
