90s Flashback: Dr. Dre // Nuthin’ but a ‘G’ Thang [Feat. Snoop Dogg]

I’ve been listening to this track loads lately as I patiently await the release of ‘Detox’ ~~in 2026~~ later this year. Hopefully Dr. Dre will take a break from making headphones and finally give us his third album, but I won’t hold my breath. Until then I’ll listen to ‘The Chronic’ and ‘2001’, the former being a soundtrack for much of 2012 for me so far.

“Nuthin’ but a ‘G’ Thang” must be the epitome of West Coast hip-hop. With samples from Leon Hawywood, Public Enemy and Kid Dynamite, it perfects the sounds of Los Angeles. Its laidback sounds surely make it a better representative of early 90s hip-hop than most others.

Snoop and Dre are the perfect partership, they just work so well on tracks together. It must be their smooth delivery, but whatever it is, they definitely sound good together. Hopefully they’ll give us another to ball around Los Santos to….that is if Dre can get his album out before Grand Theft Auto V hits the shelves.
