Slow & hypnotic grooves. Multi-layered and melodic. The sound that emerged from the West Coast hip-hop scene in the early 90s, dominating the music charts and redefining rap music.
The G-Funk Sampler no.1 is a 100-minute journey through the style's golden age. It's packed with groundbreaking tracks that set the tone with smooth basslines, soulful samples and laid back vibes paired with vivid storytelling of street life. There's the essential crossover hits and deep cuts for a mix tailor-made for lifting, running or rolling—as in playing BJJ (although it'd be a great soundtrack for rolling other things), these beats will keep you locked in the zone.
