Post by: Shallow on April 26, 2004, 02:23:07 PM
I feel stupid asking this because I know the answers been on this forum before, but it was so long ago and I forgot. Which Roger Troutman song did the piano peice from Dre and Pac's California Love come from, the popular version with the mad max type video.

However there is also a Joe Cocker song "woman to woman" that sounds very similar. Also someone  told me that Roger wrote the music of the song for Dre  and then recorded his own version later.

When I heard "California Love" by Roger & Zapp I stopped considering Dre a genius.

Isaac Newton was genius, musicians are just people with good ears. The main reason Mozart was considered a genius was because what he was doing at such a young age, and his ability to see music, not just hear it, kind of like Beethoven. Except Beethoven's came from the soul, and Mozart's was mathematical.

What I said wasn't aimed at you, more so towards all the others that think of him as some sort of music god.
