Genre:

G-funk

G-funk, short for gangsta funk, is a sub-genre of gangsta rap that emerged from the West Coast hip hop scene in the early 1990s. It is characterized by its use of synthesizer-heavy 1970s funk sounds, often from Parliament-Funkadelic, and incorporates both samples and live instrumentation. The genre is known for its relaxed, laid-back grooves, and melodic choruses. Pioneered by Dr. Dre with albums like The Chronic, G-funk became a dominant form of hip-hop in the mid-1990s, influencing artists beyond the West Coast.
