That's his step brother. Why he don't let his brother help with the label? :why:

Just a random thought cause I'm listening to this joint Warren produced for Jeezy a few years ago and I was thinking bout how underrated Warren G is. Warren hooked Jeezy up with a hit with this shyt! :whew:

But he won't even look out and let his own step brother be apart of the label? It's fukked up, family suppose to stick together. :francis:
His kids are out here starving breh.
Dre is worth a billion. Hood surgeon has never seen a dime and that's his gotdamn seed :damn:

Even Arnold Schwarzenegger looked out for his illegitimate son and mistress on the low.
Maybe Pac and Suge were right about Dre all along

:mjlol:Who really knows?

Here is what we do know.

Andre has always been extremely picky on who he works with. He prefers working with artist under his umbrella. He prefers working with newer artist. For the most part, he works with who he wants to work with. Most importantly, he doesn't like anything.

This is just speculation on my part, but I really believe he didn't work with Warren much, because he wasn't feeling him. I thought Warren was dope in his prime as an artist, however perhaps he wasn't really the caliber of emcee Andre wanted to work with. I could easily see someone as picky as Andre not fukking with Warren as rapper. Dre did contribute to Snoop & Kurupt's solo efforts.

Now what about Warren the producer? Maybe Andre wasn't feeling that either. The guy doesn't like anything.

Yeah he gave him props on "The show" documentary, but why wouldn't he say all the right things?

We at least got the Game Don't Wait Remix

Warren had the job of hand picking the samples for The Chronic tho!:wow::mjcry:

For The Chronic, Warren G’s chief assignment was excavating samples. He mined Leon Haywood’s “I Wanna Do Something Freaky to You” from a Carson record bin, which supplied the strut to “Nuthin but a G Thang”. The non-Funkadelic plutonium mostly came from As the Record Turns, a collectibles emporium on Hollywood Boulevard—including the Donny Hathaway loop of “Lil Ghetto Boy” that Warren G originally intended to gift to Mista Grimm. The G Child was also immortalized as the caller in the skit that kickstarts “Deeez Nuuuts”.

“I’d sample on the MPC the way that [Dre] taught me to; then he’d re-do them, add drums, live musicians, and take it over the top,” Warren G says. “I’d never try to take anything away from what he did. He’s an incredible producer.”

I'm aware of all this, which is why even if he wasn't feeling Warren the rapper, why wouldn't he utilize his other talents over at Aftermath?

As I said, Dre works with who he wants to work with.

Yeah, it just seem like it could be something for him to do there. But yeah, Dre is real picky.

Maybe he asked and Warren said "no thanks" maybe Warren wants to be his own man?


Warren has talked about this at length. He wanted to be down and Dre wanted him to be his own man.

Low key they probably did him dirty. Signed Snoop and Nate but Warren G had to go to Def Jam and do his own thing to be successful.
