no doubt, but im talkin the development of the genre as opposed to who actually coined the name

Quote from: Sir Petey on July 29, 2013, 11:20:02 AMthere are no g funk albums really in the history of hip hop that are essential except for maybe chronic and doggystyle and some dont count the chronic as g funk unless g funk is all your listening too and if thats the case you should make it essential listening to listen to all the music that was used to sample on those albums. Another example for me is the loop used on Jayo Felony's Sherm Stick, sampling Teddy Pendergrass's Come Go With Me. That loop is grimey as fuck, I love it, and I love that part in the original song, but the way it shifts after that and the melody teddy sings, I don't really like. the reason I love hip-hop is the ability to sample just a bit of a song to create something that can be totally different from the original and which in a way explores new possibilities about a melody that the original artist hadn't thought of or didn't feel like doing.
