4. “Nuthin But A G Thang” Dr. Dre feat. Snoop Doggy Dogg:
Nuthin’ but a ‘G’ Thang was one of the most conventional/exemplary G-Funk music, that emerged from West Coast Gangsta Rap in the early ’90s. Snoop Doggy Dog was initially introduced by Dr. Dre in 1992 by the song “Deep Cover”, but it was “Nuthin but a ‘G’ Thang” from the album “The Chronic” that really made him famous/ put him in public eye. The song is a blend of funk, soul and rock music collectively by having gently-washed guitar, stop-start bass line and high pitched melodies. In contrast, Snoop’s flow is relaxed, confident and rapid-fire tongue-twister at the same time. His unique style made him a superstar. The sound, lyrics, style, performance and composition of ‘Nuthin but a ‘G’ Thang” was totally new to early ’90s and thus became a prototype for later artists.
