Whats Love Got To Do With It (Warren G Request)

[love33]

Big ups to DaGChild for posting the explicit version and h-motel for the vinyl single.  I was looking all over for the track and have it on a burned one somewhere.  Good lookin out.  Which version do yall like better -- the explicit ("supercop") or the regular ("take a look over ya shoulder")??

^^
dont you mean the explicit is the album version, and the clean is the soundtrack version?...

the track isn't a diss to suge and deathrow...

Its about Def Jam

The track came out in 96...u seriously think warren is gonna make a diss song towards suge at that time period? 

I'm pretty sure Regulate was originally going to be for Nate Dogg's album...warren g has stated in several interviews that he had no intentions of signing with death row.

i'm pretty sure he stated in some interview that he was at the start like an unsigned deathrow artist , just like bishop lamont is to aftermath. he's an aftermath artist, but he hasnt signed a record deal yet. i couldve sworn warren said that he decided not to sign to death row, coz suge wasnt really believin in his talent, so he would be like last in line to release an album, so he looked for a record deal elsewhere so he could get an album out alot quicker.

Go open up the "Regulate..The G Funk Era" insert and "Regulate" and "So Many Wayz" says "SUGE PUBLISHING."  On "So Many Wayz" he's rappin like a Row artist rappin about Snoop Dogg and Kurupt.  Therefore, those tracks are now owned by the new Death Row owners.  Suge wouldn't have owned publishing on any of his tracks if he wasn't working with Death Row.  Suge decided that he didn't want to release his album quick enough and all the bullshit went down and the focus was on Snoop and Tha Dogg Pound so Warren G went to Russell Simmons and he signed with Def Jam.

Yeah thats when g-dub was really doing it i still really like warren g but he's fallin off hardcore the last good thing that i really liked was thats it from kurupt that was produced by g and i need a light fredwreck remix.

Yeah "That It" was a classic.  Warren G produced that song in 2005 and it sounded like a throwback beat from 1999.  For some reason, that beat sounded so refreshing -- it was almost like he woke up from sleeping for 6 years and just dropped a killer old school beat.

When is that new album supposed to drop?

dubcnn.com : Were you offered a deal by Death Row Records back in the day?

Well, not really *laughs* Like I said I wasn't involved in the program, so I had to dip and do what I had to do! My brother told me "You need to go on and be your own man" so that's what I did! I went on and became my own man in this business and I been like that ever since, on my own! But I love these niggas, I love Dre, I love Snoop, I love The Dogg Pound, these is MY niggas, I put these niggas in the game, Snoop Dogg, Nate Dogg, Daz, Kurupt, RBX you know what I'm sayin? I put these niggas in the game! Can't nobody say nothin' or deny that, and I've done alotta shit that niggas don't know about, but it's all good! It's all good...

Interesting discussion...

Can anybody hook up the track "That's It" by Kurupt produced by Warren G?   Everyone is saying it's dope, but I never heard it.

warren's the type of dude that dont like to talk about inhouse politics.
he'll never come clean about the dirty laundry that went on with him at death row.

rbx mentions in his dr dre diss track awol,.... "the way you played your brother warren g, you better check your self next time you talk about eazy" .

rbx was mad at dre, coz he was thinkin that it was him fukkin over him moneywise, and he pointed out at that warren was gettin fukked over aswell.
it was really suge knight who was fukking everybody over, and suge was muscling dre over the control of the label, as they were supposed to be equal 50/50 partners, but suge wasnt having any of that. suge was callin the shots, so dre left from that situation, and handed over all the rights to the control of the label to suge, and went and started his own new label, which he signed rbx to. obviously rbx realised that suge was the one fukking the artists over.

Wait a minute, I agree that Warren G got fucked over but don't make Dr. Dre look innocent in all of this.  Dre and Suge co-owned Death Row Records at the time and they made Warren their bitch at the label.  He was doing co-production for the label and not getting any credit and he was about to blow with the "Regulate" single and the label wanted to push his release behind Tha Dogg Pound and Murder Was The Case.  Knowing that they release 1-3 albums a year, Warren got out of the door.  Dre wasn't always a saint like some of these kids believe, he was out at the clubs, got in trouble for slapping women -- him and Suge were the two badasses of gangsta rap.  He cleaned up his image after he left Death Row.  But he wasn't always Mr. Nice Guy like some people believe.  "What's Love Got To Do With It" is a diss towards Suge Knight & Dr. Dre's business tactics.  "Ain't No Fun" was one of Warren's Death Row feature tracks and the label was bringing him along with Kurupt & Daz.  Warren was also supposed to be on "Lets Play House" but was removed at the request of Dre.  They made a mistake with Warren, he could have been another artist to blow but instead Russell Simmons scooped him up and we are blessed because "Regulate...The G Funk Era" may have never been released had he stayed with Suge & Dre.
