Snoop Dogg x Dr. Dre – “Nuthin But A G Thang” (DJ Filthy Rich OG Beat Blend)
January 1, 2019
Okay, please excuse my early 90s spaz out… THIS IS STUPID DOPE FUNKY!!! Who knew? I mean, besides Snoop and Dre…
Listeners tuned into the Questlove Supreme podcast this past Wed heard Snoop Dogg reveal that the original beat for ‘Nuthin But A G Thang’ was the famous intro beat to Southside Movement’s ‘I Been Watchin You.’ Snoop started rapping the first few bars, which left me wanting to hear the whole track. So I made it happen. Listen above to hear the story and the blend.

Well, he was around back when Suge was really reigning; and he is very forthcoming with his what-had-happeneds in the interview above. More commentary on that era after the jump.
(Whoa! He talked about the Vanilla Ice balcony strong-arm incident in this, too? Yes.)

Dee Barnes Speaks On Being Assaulted By Dr. Dre Back In The Day & Her Place In Hip Hop History (Video)
September 24, 2015
Kevin Powell interviews Hip-Hop journalist Dee Barnes for HuffPost. That’s right, the story of the woman Dr. Dre attacked back in the day… the story that was missing from the N.W.A. biopic (“Straight Outta Compton”). Many heads have called the omission of this dark moment from the historic Hip-Hop story’s retelling foul. Well, watch and get Dee’s point of view.
Note: This interview is not all about the Dre assault incident. Kevin is allowing Dee to have her say, and then the story comes out. Watch. Very deep. There are still unhealed wounds to this day.
