Warren G is the most humble out of the 90s gangster rap. Why he will always be a legend
I think Nate Dogg's death really crushed Warren G psychologically... seeing him before and after is really different
I think so too
This guy is the creator of one of the greatest rap songs of all time.
realitybites771 which one? regulate?
realitybites771 I WANT IT ALL!
realitybites771 , Young Fun.
realitybites771 one of the greatest albums in my opinion..(regulate)
"This DJ" and "Regulator"
Warren G is one of my favorite hip-hop producers of all time. His beats are always some of the dopest and I like his laid-back flows as well.
I met Warren G a few years ago in Atlanta & he is a very humble person. I pray that he continues to rise in his music. I LOVE THE G FUNK!!!
I just copped his EP today and IT'S ON!! Big ups to the homey Warren G! and RIP to the O.G. Nate Dogg. We miss you.
Warren G was like the black sheep of the Deathrow crew (Dre, Snoop, Nate, Pac, DOC, The DPG) they were all eating and would work on hits together but the GChild never got his well deserved credit..
You're rite about that
Guarantee he was glad he went to def jam every body at death row got ripped off for there 💰
He wasn't signed to Deathrow.
1. Warren G never was on death row. 2. Warren G alwas got his cred. Regulator is a still played song on radios today. So is whats love got to do or I want it all. Warren just kept himself out of media and I think thats the best idea for somebodys privacy!
This might just be the best interview Ebro has ever had. He actually respects the hell out of a West Coast legend and talks about how incredible Warren's legacy is and solid production tips.
The G Funk Era is one of the best albums of the mid 90's for sure!
Glad to see he is looking healthy and doing well for him self.
Ebro rocking that Joey badass shirt 💯
Joey gives em free merch....they've been sportin pro era gear recently
devious141 now that's chess
Anthony M not checkers
proud of the Long Beach Native Warren G. grew up with him as a young pup on the west side of long beach. He took his sound and made it totally different from his brother Dr. Dre. he was influenced by his brother , but he learned to take and make his own sound of G Funk. Cant forget Above the Law either, they was on the Easy E side of G funk when Dre and Easy had beef.
That was a dope interview. Warren seems hella cool. The only thing they left out was Warren's work with tupac.
Ebro is not up on his facts at all. He said the wrong dates and didn't even mention Warren G's albums. Man this is what radio has come to.
i'm glad Bootsy Collins & George Clinton get mentioned. since so much samples came from them
R.G. Stentje
there wouldnt be any Rap if it wasnt for these OGs. Clinton&Bootsy Collins, Cameo, the Gap band..they set alll of this shit up.
I love when great artist/producers talk about how they create the sounds from back in the day. Much love GDub...#RIPNateDizzle
Why did Ebro and Laura say something along the lines of ... we haven't heard from you since '94". Warren's released 7 albums since 94... they didn't do their homework for as knowledgeable about hip-hop as they appear to be.
Regulate... G Funk Era (1994)
Take a Look Over Your Shoulder (1997)
I Want It All (1999)
The Return of the Regulator (2001)
The Hard Way (2004) (with 213)
In the Mid-Nite Hour (2005)
The G Files (2009)
Cuz they don't know shit.
Cuz everything he's put out after '99 was trash. Go listen to the albums he produced from 94-99 (Regulate, Conversation, TAOYS, I want it all) and compare it to the music he did after that. Wtf happened to gfunk? Wtf happened to the beautiful blend of instruments? Where are the funky basslines, the wah guitars, the keyboards?
Exactly!!! They are clowns ..warren got hits
@@pepepez6335 don't forget about return of the regulator 2001 classic
gotta respect the OG! #RIPNATEDOGG
Low key, this is one of the realest hip-hop conversations I've seen in a minute. This talk is a quiet education on the music business, hip-hop production, sampling and some of the more recent history in regards to making money as an artist, and as a live performer. Ebro knows his sh*t and so does Warren G and that west coast twang in his voice is golden...This was awesome.. . ya'll better do that thang! Thumbs up if you listened to the whole interview
Alotta music science dropped in this interview
Next get Dj Quik!!
TheMrdetroit313rd Quik and Warren G would be tight on some tracks.
TheMrdetroit313rd Quik and Dre one of the best producers "to me" of all time
TheMrdetroit313rd ...for the next Kendrick project! Dre knows what it's about, but in a side-by-side comparison...Quik's beats are intrinsically "hipper", both creatively and sonically. Enough of all this tryna sound like Hans Zimmer shit, from these two fingers playing, zero classical music composition skills having "beat makers"! I'd rather hear Quik bumpin' something at 105 bpm with a bass part and drums that get ya head bobbin! That's what I wanna hear Kendrick turn up on :-)
bourgeoisbrats that King Kunta had that DJ Quik vibe...he also was spittin like Suga Free
Mr Mister I think I recall Kendrick saying he was influenced by Suga Free and on Vlad tv interview with Suga Free mentions that
Big fan of Mr G. From G-Funk - I Want it All - 213 plus all his features. An OG and legend of the Game defiantly one of the top 10! We're blessed to still have him with us, he needs a biography.
Eric Paul Goldie *definitely
Damn guys how you gonna trample on the man's ego and say this is his only project in 20 years? He put out FIVE projects including colobs since 97. Research your artists before you invite them please.
saucy05 because people can be the worst
G Funk Era = Classic. So many solid tracks on it and the new EP didn't miss a step. Big ups.
Freshly uploaded, nice.
Warren is legend.
Warren g legend 💯
Ebro ...the Chronic came out in 92, get your facts right
Ebro, why don't you let the guest talk? you egomaniac
Best I've ever seen Ebro. You can tell he respects music, production and Warren G.
Nice job Ebro.
So disrespectful towards warren g. How come you people don't know he released four albums between regulate and the g files. Fortunately he was kind enough not to correct you anynore than saying that he released an album in 1999 during the interview because that would've been awkward for you people.
Much love to Warren G. He is real 100%. Humble and talented always bumped his jams since I was a teenager
Ebro is pretty knowledgeable in the nuances and broader scope of hip hop. Warren G seems like a humble, cool person. Great interview.
ONE of my top 3 favorite artist.!! Warren-g had so many bangen tracks an is the most underated artist man, Big part of 90s history.. . He missed his babys birth to perform in my city, Warren g the dopest he needs more credit 4 real.!!
"Hey snoop i spent $5 on the weed, you better quit fucking with me!!" Classic
Ebro gave one of the best descriptions of analog versus digital
Warren G, I don't know if you know this, but what you did on yo' first album.....come on baby! And it's still all good. I mean it. My dad and I shared the tape, but it was so good that we ended up buying the cd too. And all the singles. My favorite will always be This D.J. and the Regulate remix. So many memories behind yo' music. Let me stop playin'. All I really know and like is the first album. I don't know anything other than that. I'm sorry. I really miss G-Funk now more than ever. I always listen to Domino, Foesum and The Twinz. Puffy and them took over in 1995-1998 so G-Funk fell flat. Go 'head, Ebro. Droppin' a little science on me. Ya'll can buy $800 phones, but won't buy a $10 album. lol. Dang, sad but true. I still buy music. If I like it, I buy it. If I don't, it's gon stay right where it is. Anyway, I just preview yo' new EP and.....well..... :( Imma leave it alone though. Good interview. Oh and Ebro, it's time for you to just cancel Laura and Rosenberg. They don't be doin' nothin'. You are strong enough to handle this all on yo' own. Besides, you don't let them get a word in edgewise anyhow.
LaCheleWallace Maybe Warren G's mainstream career would have lasted longer if he focused more on producing then rapping. His first album was classic tho, that album still gets spins even now.
Kevin Breaux domino, foesum and twinz were so under rated.
Kevin Breaux OKAAAAAY! Anything after that first one.....PASS!
LaCheleWallace hahaha oh man don't even get me started on Domino. Maaaaaaan that dude was so underrated!!
I feel like he dropped at a bad time considering Doggystyle came out Nov. 1993 and Domino album drop Dec. 1993 so that did not help!!
Nonetheless Domino STILL went Gold and had a deal with Def Jam/Columbia so he didn't too bad! Today I think he does christian rap tho lol
Plus Domino and Snoop were both:
From Long Beach
Both Crips
Both were laid back and melodic sounding
I don't think Domino sounded anything like Snoop but some people had the nerve to say he copying Snoop!! And even funnier is that word is Domino GHOSTWROTE some Snoop lyrics too!!
***** I don't think he was underrated. He did what he could. The other brothas had stronger material. I loved Domino, but I understand why it didn't work.
Ebro don't know shit....Dre announced like 7 days ago that he was dropping an LP...Aug 1st to be exact
To be fair he works for Beats 1, he might've heard before the public and thought that was the official announcement.
originoomwizi Ebro don't know shit about Warren's career either, pretty disrespectful at times actually.
I Miss the 90s Era of Hiphop it was the best I was just happy to had grown up in that time
Sumbody give my dude a energy drink lol
It's funny cause this morning when I started the car (before putting in my usb stick with a Sean Price /Heltah Skeltah mix), Regulate was playing on the local Alternative Rock station. Another testament to how HUGE that song was/is.
auxilliarydrain P!
G-funk where rhythm is life and life is rhythm
Dre could have done more with Warren
Yup
matthew mann Agreed- Warren had so much talent and I think Dre felt threatened by that. His production along with Quik was impeccable
I agree Warren G was and is such an underated True Artist and Talent. I always thought Dre could have supported Warren G and done so many more great projects with him. He is one of the OG's much respect to Warren G.
This interview is great, learned a lot about this iconic musician I didn't know! Thanks 🎶
What is Ebro talkin' about man? He said that "Nuthin But a G Thang" came out in 1990, and then The Chronic came out in '91. Meanwhile, both came out in late '92.
DrHooper24
probably because he wasn't sitting with Google in front of him like you. Maybe he just made a mistake.
I've been saying that for years now. Everyone should record and produce through analog systems. Every artist that uses analog equipment are held as the best in their genre. 2 examples- Dr.Dre for hip hop and Jack White for rock. Both have these throwback sounds but sounds so fuckin good in the modern era.
Ebro has hip hop knowledge for days. you can listen to this nigga and learn real history. props to him.
That was one of the best interviews that I've seen in quite some time. Much respect
Nate dog is the king of the hooks man when ever he gets on anybody shit you know that shit gonna be a hit I missed that nigga man
Wow, Ebro has to ask questions and answer them himself. Watching this interview is like watching paint dry.
I don't think it's anywhere near that
All I know Is I'd do less talking if I was interviewing a Legend like Warren G
How is it Ebro who not many people know, even thinks he can talk about producing
to Warren G, a producer known world wide and responsible for one of THE MOST memorable RnB HipHop sounds of all time?
Blessup Warren and to the whole GFunk Family
Why do interviewers talk too much?
cuz they like the sound of their own voice
True dat
Real spill!!! That's there job but u don't agree with it they should listen more smh
+knogud swagga I don't agree
Because their celebrities too these days, they want they camera time😂😂😂😂😂
I respect the OG, the man has classics... But listening to him trying to make a point was killing me. Anyway they didn't know much about his catalog, dude has quite a few albums
Do millienials even know who people like DJ Quik, Warren G and Nate Dogg are?
Nope
Yes. Maybe cuz I'm from Cali but Warren g and the Dogg pound were the soundtracks to my high school years!
Yes I’m 16 in listen to warren g, DMX, 50, Nate dogg, and E 40
Yeah
Gen Z here, 03 baby. I listen to G-Funk all day, but prob cause the influence of being born in Cali (LA too)
@ 9:46 What the f*** nobody knows about his discography!!!Not even himself!! Hes had so many other albums.Regulate... G Funk Era (1994)
Take a Look Over Your Shoulder (1997)
I Want It All (1999)
The Return of the Regulator (2001)
The Hard Way (2004) (with 213)
In the Mid-Nite Hour (2005)
The G Files (2009)
Regulate... G Funk Era, Pt. II (2015)[10]
Beauty And The Bear Exactly, you would think they would do their research prior to him coming on the show.
Beauty And The Bear I was thinking the same thing... hahaha...
Abel Beats MURDERGHOST I can't get over it. Why doesn't Dre talk to him?
***** Yeah I agree he was probably caught off guard. Return of the regulator was dope.

I love the boom bap east coast vibe but bro I'm a West Coast Rider for life. Not shit will change when it comes to west coast G-Classics. Many come and go, many new artists, but the Old Head OG's will remain. One up for the Golden Era OG's!!!!
Ali Issa are you really still talking about geography like it has anything to do with the quality of music?
that's kinda odd
Ali Issa
To be fair to me, after re-reading what i wrote, I have no idea why I wrote it!
I rarely ever post comments on youtube and was kinda drunk, my apologies, seems like I got it twisted, humble apologies from Scotland
Bless
I'd probably read countless hateful messages from crap people and unfortunately in my haze I posted something against you. Nobody's perfect I suppose.
Have a good life, peace
Warren G is one of the nicest guys you can meet. I worked with him a couple years ago, very humble dude. His brother Dr. DRE IS A BILLIONAIRE AND HAS NEVER HELPED HIM FINANCIALLY. I HOPE HE MAKES SOME MONEY, BECAUSE HE HAS HEALTH PROBLEMS.
it's cool listening to old school people talk about today's technology
Warren g is a humble person
I love that My House joint fire, true legend
Warren G is def one of my Fave's I met him years ago doing a meet & greet for my Record Pool. "I want it all."
One of the best interviews Hot97 done ina while. Alotta gems and inspiration for music lovers.
I love when Ebro talks like this...
Spitting game.
I appreciate that OG
This is a legendary interview
Man I love to hear interviews from OGs in the game learning the history. I must admit Ebro frustrated me this interview. Like he dominated the talking. Let Warren talk!!
Pioneer straight up reality .. Good breathing another day as Warren G.
The public got too really understand that struggle :(
I still bump G funk in my car. Time to come home warren
A real OG
Ebro was dropping some juelz boy! Much respect to the west coast legend Warren G.
A real true radio dj that knows his instruments and music tech. Warren G I miss your G Funk you look like your still in the 90's!
Warren G is so cool
Salute to Ebro for continuously shouting out Ohio and the important role Ohio Funk artists played in the evolution of G-Funk and Hip Hop, in general.
gotta be one of the most humble rappers out man respect
Ebro gotta let the guests speak more
stop bangin on the desk yo. shit got mad bass
This was Ebro at his very best Interviewing wise..
2019! And still bumping Warren G! Humble Man!
Laura Stylez just be sitting there lookin so fly, chiming in with her questions around Ebro..shes a great co-host
Is Ebro a producer damn, he knows what he's talking about.
+Randy Washington lol real shit i put money no one at the breakfest clubs are schooled like him
*****
facts bro
Dj Envy is. He used to be a producer. Came up with Dj Clue and Norega and all that.
Warren G In the mid-night hour was a dope album. If you haven't listened to it, go listen to it now. You won't regret it.
I watched this video and immediately copped that shyt. And it is Warren g. I wish it was longer, that shyt is dope. Come on Warren, come out with the deluxe version and we gonna rock it
WHAT AN INCREDIBLE INTERVIEW ........I LEARNED SO MUCH ABOUT THE EARLY GANGSTA RAP ERA FROM THIS ....AWESOME.....
A truly humbled and blessed individual. A real great.
I wish radio hosts would let the artists talk… It seemed like the guy interviewing warren was the one getting interviewed.
Gems in this interview if your a old head...
Warren G n Mickey Rourke speak the same way
dope ass interview ebro ! 💯💯
Need to get Warren G on Juan Ep!
Thank you for putting funk in it's perspective of what it was in it's time
I don't know who Ebro is it's the first time I've seen and heard of him but WOW what a KNOWLEDGABLE, INTELLIGENT guy who knows what he's talking about and also GREAT GREAT interview and GREAT QUESTIONS!!! Wow impressed I'm a new fan, if it wasn't for this interview I would have no idea about Warren G's new releases, I went to see him perform in November but he didn't mention this album.
I could lisint to these stories allday
Look at the homie Ebro kicking his shit!! Another dope interview 👌🏾
I respect this guy Ebro big time...
Craig Ruddy Ebro? Really..? Why..? Can it be expressed in words? Or is it just a feeling you get
BottleBrassMonkey Did you not watch the interview? He was dropping knowledge through the whole fucking thing.
People just love to hate on Ebro
But why? Because he's Jewish, or not "black enough"? Or because he keeps it too real or isn't into shock jocking like someone I'd be tainting this entire comment section by naming?
Nah I watched it, I guess I knew alot about what he was talking about sooo but in response to your cluelessness on why people feel a certain way about Ebro, like can I ask you a question, how long have you been listening to Ebro? Like how long have you been listening to hot97 in general?
Droppin all gems. Respect.
I appreciate this one of a kind Brother!.
Warren G @ 20:44 " we was Selling CANDY" I use to sell candy also L.L.$.
No Rosenberg...much better interview
+mroboiz Racist
+mroboiz fuck you, racist/trashy piece of shit
I agree!
...much better w/o him.
+mroboiz Ignorant fuck.
nate Dogg is a legend period..and son is a real cool laid back nigga. my type of OG
There's a lot of knowledge being passed in this interview from both of them. Ebro seems to know what he's talking about. And of course Warren G the Legend. Nice!
This was a good and insightful interview with the one and only Warren to the G
Roger Troutman & The funk band Zapp from the 70’s and early 80’s was also a huge influence on West coast Hip-Hop as well.
