Regulators You regulate any stealing of his property We're damn good too But you can't be any geek off the street Gotta be handy with the steel If you know what I mean Earn you keep DJs

It was a Oh it was a great fucking knock Cause it's time for the Duhluck Watch this DJs Because we are the DJs

We are the DJs that like to Spit it mix it Throat back And Dice Sex is. Sikka, sicker, sicker, sick of the, what's going on, everybody? One of our favorite songs growing up.

I got to be honest, as a kid, I listened to this song, and I was like, oh, that song is hard as fuck. That song is me. That song is banging. Dude, I'm, this is real. This is what real gangsters do, and I am a real gangster, because I am a five-foot, nothing Puerto Rican, and I like Domino's. And what?

I don't know where you went with any of that, but Real Talk, Warren G was actually my first, like, favorite artist. I remember it was the this DJB Warren G that song was like the first hip-hop song I like when I was like eight It's kind of easy when you listen to the jeet-up sound Pioneer speakers bumpin as I smoke on the pound I got the sound for your ass and it's easy to see that this DJ be Warren G And I remember the first album I ever tried to get my aunt Bonnie took us out one time to like go get an album and I wanted to get that I was like oh I got to get Warren G and then she saw the perinearal advisor label and she's like, I don't think your dad would like this, and she didn't let me buy it.

So I was trying to make Warren G the first album I ever bought, but I couldn't get it because she didn't like that sticker. But, yeah, Warren G, my first original favorite artist. I met him when it went to Reno on SWAT in college. Yeah, he's performing up there. You probably didn't know. I DJed for him on New Year's Eve one time. But this is when I DJed CDs and probably my second year DJing. And I had a tech that was, I think, a crackhead, possibly heroin addict.

Like one of the big drugs. And he could not... One of the big twins. He could not figure out how to make my system sound good in their system. So the entire night, and I shit you not, New Year's Eve, entire night, my sound of my DJ system sounded like it was like... And you're like, Warren is listening. Come on, man. Dude, honestly, I've had so many experiences in my life where I was like, oh, dude, I need to kill it right here.

This is the time to kill it. And then just... There's always something. No, like, honestly, it's not just something, Castle. I've had just the worst possible situations happen right then. Like, oh, I got a crackhead fucking tech guy that doesn't know how to hook up a system correctly. Therefore, I have completely no chance of making my music sound good here tonight. Even though I'm mixing CDs and trying my best, I'm fucked.

There's nothing I can do here. There's just a faulty cord. She was like, dude, what's wrong with this guy? There's a speaker that's not working. in the back. I remember that story. I tried to forget that shit. There's an elephant pit next door that's just creating havoc and I didn't see coming, you know? There's...

I hope that was never an issue. But if it is, it's just kind of like, that's just the domino. That's the way the dominoes fall. It's not fun. Either way, we are dissecting a legendary gem from 1994. It is Warren G. and the legendary late great Nate Dogg regulators. Now, did you know, Castle, that the initial

part there, the regulators, We're regular any stealing his property We're damn good too It's from a 1988 movie I only know this Because you brought this to my attention About an hour ago A couple hours before we did this

I tried to be surprised him with And I should not have told him Before we talked And that's my fault listeners I apologize I was shocked though because I was saying Right after he told me the story We had a conversation about

Like you should actually brought this up to me As we did because we like to actually We don't do any game planning When we go into these episodes By the way, we got an email Somebody saying you guys do your research And I was like, we don't research Yeah, we figure it out on the fly

Research, I don't know how to spell that? How do you spell research? That's crazy. R-E-S-E-A-R-C-H You can't with me with that Well, I don't want to put it out there I don't know how to spell research I know, pretty basic guys I said it and I still don't know, read, anyway

So I always just thought that that was like Warren G or somebody like saying that at the beginning of the song and that's just like them like... A gangster, random way of, like, approaching this. Just like getting into the song, it always works for me. So he told me that this is from a movie that you were randomly just like watching and like not even really paying attention to right.

Oh, I love watching movies as I go to sleep. Yeah, he likes a nap to movies. That looks like a good one to go to sleep too. Yeah. Boom. And then randomly as I'm watching it, it's actually like an hour into the movie. I had woken up to go to the restroom

and take a piss or some shit. Woke up, as I'm laying back down, all I hear is that fucking scene from 1988. Young guns. He can't be any geek off the street. Regulators who got to give you a street. We damn good too.

And then he talks about something and then he's like... There's another line in between the two. Yeah. So then what we just did before we watch this is like, now I got to see the scene. Showed him the scene. And you know the crazy thing? The dude that says that is a white dude. He's a white cowboy dude.

And do you know that sound that comes in at the very end of it? When he's like... You think it's like something like a gun being pulled or something? Nope. As he says, uh... but you can't be any geek off the street you gotta be handy with the steel you know what I mean

aren't you keep and there's like a little like and that's because the camera cuts to like a pig and a trough like fucking around because they're like cowboys and they're like in like a Western society or some shit I don't know I didn't actually watch a movie

I just saw the scene he just showed me but I was just like what the fuck the fact that Warren saw that and he was like yeah throw that sound bite I have respect you know it began to open up my track with that with that dope ass whistle

I will say Regulators Mount up They added that That wasn't in the movie How do you not get hyped on that one? That wasn't in the movie And it gets you like

Let's go One of the original like calls to action That gets you going As the track kicks off That's got to be Top four Opening Yeah I'll put these lists out at some point

I don't know I just got to actually do research On the rest of them But like as far as like a sound bite To get going Yeah that one gets you hype and then it pops right in. That whistle, that, like, intro.

Oh, man, this song comes in. Like, it's one of the reasons that I think, it actually might be the main reason that this, other than the fact that it's just, like, a dope track that, like, stands the test of time forever. The way it kicks off, I think, just is one of those. It's something we discuss a lot on dissect DJs. Oh, yeah.

Is, yeah, the way you jump into a track and get everybody's attention. And that one comes in more smooth. A lot of the other ones that we talk about that, like, hit it, like just come in hard. That one comes in smoothly with a dope soundbite. With some random fucking sound from a movie that they found that was dope.

So again, the movie is Young Guns, which is apparently a Western film from like 1988. There's actually a Young Guns too. I don't care about that. I fell asleep to that as well. I don't give a fuck about any of that. I could watch the movie and maybe I'll like it,

but probably not. You wouldn't like it. It's a terrible movie. I just want to see that one scene. I just want to see that movie. I really stand it. that bad to watch it and I was like this is a terrible Isn't it so good that we have like YouTube now that we can

actually just be like let me just watch that one scene 20 seconds clip that we need. And I got all the jizzed that otherwise back in the day I would have to watch the whole movie and be like oh there's the part there it is. And I look and like my dad's my dad's already falling asleep. 2022 sir that's where we're ready. Now with that castle I got to be honest this

song there's a reason why we got into this song other than the gangsterness and the fantasticness of the 90s track that we're getting into I have to say this song has always had a story that like, wait, what just happened? It has to be dissected. Wait, what are they doing? Let's get into it.

Wait, it's two different guys doing what? And I can't wait to get into this, because these two guys get into the most ridiculous situation for no fucking reason other than themselves, putting themselves in ridiculous situations. So, with that said, Nate Dogg, Warren G. Let's hear it. Regulators.

Mount up. It was a clear black night, a clear white moon, Warren, G was on the show. Street's trying to consume some skirts for the Eves so I could get some phones rolling in my ride chilling all the guns. Just hit the east side of the LBC on a mission trying to find Mr. Warren G. Seen a car full of girls ain't no need to tweak. All you scourge know what's up with 213. So I hooks a left on 2-1 and Lewis and brothers shooting dice so I said let's do this.

I jumped out the rock and said what's up. Some brothers put some meat so I said I'm stuck. Since these girls peep in knee, I'm on glides and swerth these are looking so hard. They stray hit the curve. Want to bigger better things than some horny tricks. I see my homie and some suckers all in his mix. I'm getting jack. I'm breaking myself.

I can't believe. They taking war and swell. They took my rings. They took my Rolex. I looked at the brother said, damn, what's next? Hold up. I should have stopped a little earlier, but I'm going to stop it now because what is going on in this story already, okay?

Now we're watching the video, and it tells a good story as well, but what you got? Well, Justin, it starts with a clear black night, a clear white moon. Warren G was on the streets trying to consume some skirts for the eve so I can get some phones. He says phones? Yeah, like phone numbers. Oh, all right. I can ride with that. Rolling in my ride, chilling all alone.

Okay. And then Nate Dog comes in, right? Just hit the east side of the LBC on a mission trying to find Mr. Warman G. Does that mean like, so his mission's trying to find him. Warren G. Yeah. But I thought he was riding with him, right? No, no, no, they're different.

He's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, trying to find some phones. Yeah, yeah, yeah, chilling all alone. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And they're trying to find him. This is, this is, this is, this shows the complexity of the early 90s time. And, well, I've always been confused and, like, glad I didn't grow up in that world. Mm-hmm. Castle, you had to be like, just got to, like, seek it out.

If they were at home when you called him, and we're like, yo, just meet me there. All right, I'll hopefully see you there. He's got to look around and drag him. to drive around the block a few times. He's just like, I know Warren said he's going to be around like 21 of Lewis or some shit. So let me just, yeah, okay, I'm close. Let me just look for him. And like, you can't call him to check.

You got to just start shouting out. At this point, you couldn't even. Regulators! You couldn't even beep him here. And then on the other side of the corner, Warren G. shouts, mount up. Yeah, yeah. But you couldn't even beep him here. Like, you couldn't, once you're on the road, away from your houses, there's no way of contacting

each other. I don't know. This is 1994. So, like, you had the Zach Morris. cell phones out there. And they, like you said, like, beepers are a thing. Let's just act like they're not a thing. I mean, there's a good chance that they didn't have those things.

A lot of people didn't. That's what I'm saying. It wasn't as commonplace. I'm just always amazed. And I'm certain millennials passes because we had to deal with a little bit of it. But still, the amazing people used to be like, all right, I'll meet you there at this time. Okay.

I'll meet you there at this time. If anything goes wrong in between that time, right? You don't know. Like, you're not going to be home until later to check on that person. And hopefully they left. the message on your machine, which might not even have at this point. It's just the way people used to hang out

and hook up and get together in the early 90s, 80s, and 70s and all the way down before cell phones is astounding. Like, it's astounding. I'm just forever amazed by that. So I'm making sure I bring that up on this situation because it's like, these guys are driving around looking for each other

in Long Beach. One's getting this way, one's over this way, and somehow some way they're going to meet each other and we're going to find out how but so watch swingers the other night yeah why does mike's machine start talking them in the beginning it's that fun the whole machine just talks to him it just doesn't make like the rest of the movie like it makes you think that you're going to be in this farcical world where like shit is just a little different which i could like that's the only time that's the only time like his machines are you calling her there are plenty of fish in the seat like why is

his machine like that was not a thing that it almost like makes probably kids these days think like Like, they're probably already confused. Like, what is this answer machine thing about? And you explain to them like, oh, well, back in the day, you know, when you were in home, somebody would call your house and they would let you know, like, because we didn't even have call her idea at a time. And then you'd have to be like, oh, well, they left a message and that's how you know somebody called you.

And then on top of that, they'd be like, so did it talk to you about, was it like Alexa? Did it have like a little bit of like an actual soul where it can kind of like conjure up what's going on the situation? Like, no, they didn't do that. I don't know how that movie. I don't know why that did that. It's like the first scene, too.

Yeah, it's like, anyways, I don't know. I just watched it recently. And going into this movie, going to more of the regulators, going back to it, Warren G. has just hooked a left on 21 and Lewis. Saw some guys playing dice. So we said, let's do this. Let's do this. Stop.

Stop. A random thought. You're telling me you're in your car all alone. You're driving in the middle of Long Beach in the early 90s. On 21 in Louis. Knowing Long Beach is not to save his spot back then. Just, you know, there's a bunch of guys. And according to the video, it was like five guys.

Five guys sitting there in the corner playing dice. Warren G. decides to stop his car, get out, and be like, yo, I'm down for some fucking dice. What's he say? Let's do this. He says, what's up? And I said, what's up? and what is their first action as soon as he rolls up on him

and it says, what's up. Pull some gas and I said I'm stuck. Yeah, maybe don't get at your car and like jump into a shady mix of characters that are just throwing dice against the mall. Downtown Long Beach in the early 90s and you're, and okay, and we're going to get into it in a second,

but this man has a Rolex on his wrist. He comes out with a Rolex. He comes out, jumping out, and has a Rolex. Like, let's play. Waving that shit around like, yeah, let me get at this. Why do you need to play dice with some random dudes on the side of a corner and you have a Rolex?

Oh, then brothers playing dice? I got to get in on this. You're supposed to be looking for your boy Nate. Nothing bad could happen to me. Where's Nate? Where's Nate? Like you guys are clearly looking for each other. Okay.

It's just a crazy scenario. So then let's go ahead and continue the story because that Nate comes in, he says, since these girls peeping me, I'm a glad and swerve. These hookers looking so hard. They straight hit the curve. Also, they are hookers. I always wondered if they were prostitutes. Because he just comes in and grabs. Or does it call them hookers?

Even though they may just be lazy. No. According to the video, they're just five girls in a car. I feel like there's a lot of... Girls used to roll deep in cars, apparently. True. According to this. Yeah.

Well, there's a lot of terms that you could refer to a female just hanging out in the corner as that makes it a vague term. Hookers is not one of them. If you're referring to the girls as hookers, like, they are hookers. Like, that's for sure what's going on here. That's their profession. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you know hookers when you see them on the curb. So that's what Nate dog's looking at.

He's just like... But according to the video, it's five girls in the car, which is very confusing. Yeah, yeah. All right, so Nate, so Nate's looking for some hookers, according to his words,

not even trying to suspect, his words, and Warren G. is getting jacked by five guys that he decided to stop at the side of a corner and play dice against because they were playing dice,

and he was like, let's do this. On to bigger, better things than some horny tricks. I see my homie and some suckers all in his mix. So he's looking for the hookers. And like did he, I guess he ends up, does he throw him in the ride yet?

Not yet. Yeah, he's just, he's. So he's looking at him. He's like, I see them. He's like, oh, I see him. All right, I'll come back for you. And then, oh, shit, is that my man G getting like held up right now? This is all happened on 21 in Lewis.

This is all happening on 21 Lewis. It's a busy intersection. Let's hear what happened here. Nate, what did you do, sir? What's up? They got my homie hemmed up and they all around. Hey, none of them I'm seeing if they're going straight down for power. They want to come up real quick before they start to class.

I best pull out my and laid them busters down They got guns to my head I think I'm going down I can't believe it's happening in my own town If I had wings I would fly Let me contemplate I glance in the cut and I see my homie Nate 16 in the and one in the hole

Nate dog is about to make somebody's turn Now they drop in and yelling it's a tad bit late Nate dog and Warren G had to regulate 16 in the gap and one in the hole Okay This is Okay Okay.

Okay. Nate is driving. Looking for some hookers. He sees his boy Warren getting messed up by the guys he decided to stop and play dice against random, but they pulled a gat on him. They took his rings and then took his Rolex. Took his rings, took his Rolex. He said, damn, what's next? Nate comes in with 16 in the gap and one in the hole.

He's about to make some bodies turn cold. The amount of violence and debauchery that is. happening right now. Nate's trying to look for hookers. Then he sees this boy getting wrecked because he was trying to play dice with a bunch of random guys who decided to jack him. Then Nate just tries to take his

gun that has 16 fucking bullets one in the hole and decides to fucking try to... He's going to kill the guys that are attacking Warren. This shit turned up quick! Can we put bockery in the Diasic DJ dictionary? We got to create that. Debokery.

He said bockery. No, it's in debauchery. The straight bockery that's going on. Bocry's good, though. You don't even need D. Why's the D there? This is another syllable. Fucking bockery happening. I like it.

I like it. It's official, guys. The bockery is now bockery. Start using that in everyday slang. Because is there, why are we D in bocary? Nobody even knows what bocary? Trademarked. But yeah, dude.

What is happening? The bockery that's going down right now is, I'm confused. Like, wait, who was looking for who? Warren G was looking. for hookers. No, Nate was...

They're both looking for each other. But Nate sees some hookers and he's like, oh, they're dope. And then Warren sees the guys playing dice and he's like,

I'm down to play dice. Let's do this. Gets out. Those guys try to jack him. Nate's done with the girls. He's like, I've got to find my boy Warren. I can't get these girls in.

Sees his boy Warren getting jacked by the dudes pulls out his gat with 16 and one in the hole and he's about to make some body's turk cold. Now they drop in and yelling. It's a tad bit late.

Wait, wait. That's a little late. later. Because first Warren G says they got guns to my head. I think I'm going down. I can't believe it's happening in my own town. If I have wings, I can fly. Wait, before we get to that point, I can absolutely believe it, okay?

If I'm driving around and I see some, like, shaded characters throwing dice against the wall, my first thought is like, oh, so what's up? Continue driving. Let's do this. Oh, you would stop two? No, I'm saying that's not the, yeah, yeah. I'm not thinking, let me get out there and flash my roly and just be like, yeah, let me get in this shit. Yeah, and my rings.

Multiple rings. Multiple rings. You know are blinging as fuck right now. Yeah, you're exactly what these fools have been waiting for. And they didn't even give them a chance to get in the game. They weren't like, yeah, I want you play a few rounds. They were like, dude, he has rings in a row. What's up?

What's up? Yeah. So he got. What a crazy scene, like immediately. And he immediately thinks, if I had wings, I would fly, let me contemplate. And before he could do that, as he's contemplating, like, if I had wings, I could fly, Let me be get out of the situation Man, Nate Dizzles

And he sees his homie Nate And he just comes in He's just like, I got you full 16 in the clip And one in the hole It's 16 in the clip Nate Dog is about to make somebody turn to Now they drop in that yelling

It's a tabby late Nate Dogger at Warren G had to regulate Hold up And I was gonna hit the song Because it was a perfect time Because we set it up But They're dropping and yelling

So Nate dog literally Like started shooting these motherfuckers What if he just sent off some like warning rounds Just to like you know Let him like give him a chance to Here he's a tad bit late Yeah He had to regulate dude

Yeah And he shot him A Does it say that? No but I'm just I'm assuming for sure But one of them One of them caught like a stray

I don't know Why would you drop and yell Because they ran it up With 16 in the clip And one of the hole so they're like oh this pool's not fucking around I always thought they got like we're dying Like House of Pain was gonna do anything

I'm sorry I just watched Swingers again last like like two nights ago I haven't seen in a while but Yeah yeah but like it's you throw Is he brown Have him take off his shoes I want to see him Have him take off his shoes Spill you said it was bullshit

That's what the instant replay was built for Why do you think they put the instant replay in the game So you can look at it Look at it! I'm sorry. You like me. You love me right now. You want to kiss me?

Yeah. All right, anybody that hasn't seen swingers is confused as fuck. But you know what's great? The tie-in, pretty sure both of these came out in 1994. This is a 1994 podcast, which is an amazing year. I was still a child with all the optimism and dreams that a child you'd have. But you know what? The 90s were a great time to be a youngster just growing up in the streets,

throwing dice, you know, picking up hookers. because it's a tad bit late. Mound up. Now I'm switching my mind back into freakbow. He killed him. He killed him. Why? What do you say right there?

He killed him. I laid all them buses down. I let my god explode. He killed him. So Nate just walks in and shoots every one of the motherfuckers. He said they were dropping and yelling. Yeah, I guess that would happen also if you started like just spraying. Yeah, you spray?

I got your point. I was like, okay, maybe they didn't die. But then the next verse says, Now I'm switching my mind back into freak mode. What does he say initially? It's literally, okay, I laid all them buses down. I let my gad explode. So he started shooting them.

They're all dead. I'm blasting fools. I'm switching my mind back into freak mode. Immediately. Not even like a line in between there. It's back to, if you want skirts, it's back and absurd. I just killed five guys. And then he goes back to.

I don't care though. But I just left a gang of hose over there on the curves. Let's go back to see what they were about. War, let's go. Like these hookers don't know how this. You think this is their first time watching a God explode and some shit going down and over a game of dice? They're not

rookies to this shit. They need vets on that corner. Go and get you some Nate Dizzle. If you won't skirt, sit back and observe. I just left a gang of those over there on the curve. Now Nate got the freaks and that's a known fact before I got jacked, I was on the same track. Back up, back up

because it's on N-A-E and me, the woman to the G. Just like I thought they were in the same spot in need of some desperate A Nate dog and the G-Chile were in need of something An end One of them names was sexy as hell I said, ooh, I like your size

She said my chorus broke down And you sing real nice with your lent me ride I got a call full of girls And it's going real sweat The next stop is the east side Oh my goodness They waste no time to get back in a freak mode This is just another Saturday night

for Nate Dio double jizzle. Warren was getting jack. Nate came, killed the guys that were trying to jack, cat, cat, cat, I got you. And within seconds, we're like,

all right, yo, hurry up and get in the car, though, because we, the hose over there, the curb. Sirens is coming. They were still there. And they were just down

to be like, yeah, they needed some help. Yeah. The next spot is the east side hotel. No, they saw,

it's just funny how they went from like this crazy scene of Warren getting jacked and then like, oh, They got to kill him. And then just were like, forget him though.

I had this sexy little dime. She's sexy as hell. She said, ooh, I like your style. Like, wait, you just killed five guys. Let's put yourself in the stripper's shoes for a minute. Or the strippers' boots or stilettos or whatever the fuck they're rocking on that evening. They just watched a whole crazy crime coming. They know that there's cops coming.

They're doing some illegal shit themselves. They don't want to answer questions of this shit. So, of course, they arrived to hop in the, coop and get out to the east side hotel like yeah like i gotta make some money out of this i get out the crime scene yeah fucking let me ride these guys were driving around to find each other what was their goal were they not going to a club so all he did their goal was to find these hookers it sounds like nate's mission was he says to find mr warren g but it sounds like he could very easily be like oh wait but check them out on the corner all right hey warren regulators mount up i'm about to handle some

We got five chicks waiting for us and we're going to go to the motel. Yeah. The East Side Hotel is calling. We're not going to anything else. We're not going to a club. We're not going to anything else. We're not spending any money. Yeah, they're spending money on the fucking lineup on the corner right there.

Oh yeah, the East Side. He's like, that's what we're going to spend our money doing. Sorry you got your Rolex Jack. I forever will be amazed at the quick switch from Warren being jacked. Nate helping him. And like you said, within a fucking line, we're like, okay, they're dead. and we got to go pick up those hookers. And now, in talking about those hookers,

there's just one that's sexy as hell. I said, ooh, I like your style. You think... You said my car's park, but it seemed real nice. Would you let me... What? Like, the fact that he gets some random conversation of some dime that he was talking to

five seconds after he killed somebody, it's just astounding and gangster to me. Way of the streets, my man. LBC. LBC. You think Warren, when, got his roly back though much of they castle they're dead yeah of course yeah

he definitely got his rings he got his relash it a little bit but yeah all right let's finish the rest of the most because I want to hear how Nate smokes Into a whole new era G-funk step to this idea funk on a whole new level The rhythm is the base of the bass

Chords strings We brings Melody And like this rhythm. You know like I know, you don't want to step to this. It's the cheap on camera bumped out with a gangster twist.

If you smoke like I smoke, then you high like every day. And if your ass is a buster, two and three will break you late. Hey, what movie was that that was splicing all throughout the music video? I don't know. It was a Tupac movie.

I want to say juice. Probably juice. Yeah. Music videos used to do. do that like when they were kind of like featured on track of a movie they were like splicing clips i don't know i haven't seen juice i'll do that shit with dr dula yeah i remember that yeah are you that somebody yeah they used to do that all the time i i don't know that video kind of made me want to see that movie though i like teupac is an actor when he's in there and he's kind of doing a two pocket

but like it's weird i have that movie i'll let you borrow the DVD it's good it goes from like i don't even know where to play like frances it's funny you don't have dvd no like computers come like my mac doesn't have a place for a DVD anymore i bought tvs don't I bought extra DVD players. You got to, like, buy one, like, off the black market these days. One, and then I have a new one ready to go, just in case that one dies, because I knew, I was like, how to fuck them, they're going to stop making DVD players. So let me even get extra. And so I might have a vintage, very unique DVD players, and it might be worth fucking...

Toss it this way, homie. NFT money here shortly. No, fuck that. Just toss it this way. Let's get into, like, probably the best lyricism. Like, Nate comes in with one line here. The whole last part. It's dope.

It's just dope. No, no, no. But I just want to, like, give proper homage to this because Warren sets them up, and Nate literally comes in and closes out this one little 16 bar with the best. No, he says, I'm tweaking into a whole new era. Gee Funk. Step to this, I dare you. Funk on a whole new level.

The rhythm is the bass and the bass is the treble. What a lie. First of all, any way he has ever worked with, like, you know, kind of producing music you're like putting it together. You know the difference of bass and treble. And if you can combine the two in a single line, he comes in one line there and just shreds the track. What does that mean?

The rhythm is the bass and the bass is the treble? Okay, so what's that mean? The bass is carrying. A song like this, bass often carries the track, right? So the treble is kind of more like that. How is the base to treble? Because it just is. And this track, it all makes sense.

It all comes full circle because Nate Dogg says so. All right? so it's got a dope base and we gotta like pay homage to this beat too because like that whistle man I want to like make a list of like the top three like whistles on a track ever and there's some like good 70s

I'm like blanking off the top of my head of like what they are but there's some guy good like disco tracks that I think work with the good thing. That probably wouldn't make the list but it is an iconic whistle what did I tell you all about this guy's whistling abilities? Can you do the regulator's whistle? Can you do that one?

I lost it at the end there but yeah. Pretty good. I don't know where you got those skills. I'm jealous of them forever. My mama. Yeah, that's right. Yeah, so they literally shift the track from talking about, you know, rolling up on a dice game that gets sketchy real quick, picking up some hookers.

The next thing, you know, is we go to the East Side Hotel. And they just shift it talking about the rhythm of the bass and the bass is the treble. Then to chords, strings, we bring some melody G-funk, where rhythm is life, and life is rhythm. There's something all about just the actual melodies of the track. That becomes their focus. And it's almost like to distract you from like, don't worry about what's going on in the East Side Motel. Okay, it's fine.

Like, shit went down there with the girls with a mushroom top. Why did girls back in the 90s, like the small sector of like early to mid-90s in all the rap videos always were had, like you saw a lot of girls with that shitty haircut where they, it's almost like a mushroom top, you know? and you know they probably put a lot of work into getting it done that way. They had that short hair, very short hair, no, it's 90s. And it's very short, it's like almost like buzzed around like below the ears.

And then the top they just had this mushroom top. Like there was like two or three girls in that video that had that hair that just kind of like flopped. And it almost like distracts you from how hot they actually could be because that's all I'm seeing. But I don't know. Anyways, point is Nate Dogg is the best hook map. of the 90s and early 2000s. If you ever wanted your track to sing, you'd get Nate Dog on there.

And also, he murdered people because they were fucking with his boy, Warren. All 16, they died and then they just moved on and went to the East Side Motel. And fuck some hookers. Minutes later. It's kind of crazy.

And he fucks a mushroom top hookers. Have you ever heard the sample of this song where it came from? Yes. Yeah, let's play that. Michael McDonald's voice is just like an instrument on its own. I can forget, I do not anymore.

Have you ever heard of remix verse? version with like it has basically all the verses of war and g and then like when it gets to like in between the hooks they like throw mic monta donno in there it's actually a really good remix version and that's probably actually my preferred way of hearing yeah yeah because i love yeah yeah get him in there toss them on that and if people want to know so like i grew up like i said in the 90s warren g was my favorite he was my first favorite rapper but the reason that warring g like because i can't think of any classic Warren G songs in the last like 20 years. But you want to know why Warren G is still a household name?

Because he is a dope producer. He heard that beat and he was like, that's a hip-hop track. That's a gangster track. I'm going to get an eight-dog on it. And then he watched some movie from 1988 called Young Guns, was it? Young Guns. He heard that random speech and he's like, that's going to open the track. We regulate.

And he's stealing his property. We're damn good too. That's a good producer right there who just always got his ears open, his mind wide, to the whole possibilities of what makes it. dope hip-hop track in the mid-90s and then Warren completed that shit. I kind of like to keep forgetting version.

I mean, you know, you need the raps with it. That's what I mean. The combination of the two. Michael Beddoll. Then you got their R&B gangster rap. It's both fantastic. But love the song.

Crazy story of these two getting into some shit and then just go into the east side motel and banging. But fucking so glad we got into it. If I had to give this some slaps and some snaps. And you do.

because we are the dice. Dysk. Jesus. I'm going to go ahead and go again with the... You done? Yeah. Usually you add some kind of bullshit. Oh, that was it. All right.

Four claps. Four slaps. Classic. He remixed Michael McDonald. He did it. Gangster. It forever rings a tone in my brain that I'm like, yes, this is it. Now, it loses one slap for being a big slap because it's just...

The story is. behind this thing. We're planning on Warren's part. Just like what is, it's very a dumb story. I wish there was a little deeper of a story behind the mix of something else that happened

other than Warren G. Walking into a dice game with a Rolex and Rings getting jacked. Nate Dog coming to kill them. Kills them. Then they go pick up the girls that Nate was already scoping.

Pick up those girls. One of them was real nice and then he picks her up. They go to the east side motel and then they like G-funk on a whole new little. The story just goes all over the fucking place. Now that because the beat's dope

and, you know, Nate Dogg always kills tracks. It stays up there on that four mark for me, but just can't cross the five. Just can't cross the five. I feel you. Yeah, Warren wasn't, you know, we talked a lot in past episodes about how, like, we need that third verse to bring the story full circle.

I think possibly most notoriously was when we did Carrie Underwoods, before he cheats. And, like, we were like, where was that third verse to, like, bring home the whole story? Like we felt very incomplete. We've had a few of those. This one gave us a third verse,

but they really, like, they started singing about the chords and the troubles and the bass and the levels. Like, it really didn't actually, like, answer any questions. All you got to just figure is, like, we just took some hookers back to the Eastside motel,

and we just slanged the shit out of them. Yeah, we killed some guys. We got a smang on, and we didn't give a fuck about any of the murders we got committed, and no cops ever asked us any questions, because that's just how shit went back then.

Yeah. There's a little troublesome that it kind of dropped it off. I was going to say what episode, but it doesn't say the numbers on here.

That's episode 65 for those who are. Carrie Underwood, if you want to listen to it's a classic. And again, going back to that episode, gentlemen,

get full car insurance and then... Who does the fuck what she does here. Carrie can do nothing. In fact, she's helping you. She's going to

end up in jail next to Warren and Nate because they murder people. Murdered and now they're in federal prison. And they got caught.

Then the cops came and seeked them out because, like, we heard some gunshots and we heard you came back here. Are those five hookers in this hotel? Oh, yeah, you guys are definitely going down. You know, white police right? No, but there's like the rhythm is the base and the base is the trouble. Get the fuck on the ground. Get down. Get down.

Put your heads behind your back. Down, now. Yeah, this story, that's probably why they shifted gears to the base and the trouble because it's not going to go anywhere better from them. And with that, I just got to say, we just looked at our stats and we don't brag much. And I'm not even trying to brag, but I don't know where. Castle have 1.36 million listens

over a year and a half. I don't even know what to do with that. So we love you all for all the listens and keep it listening. Sorry we haven't posted up on our social meet as much as we'd like to recently, but come check us out. We'll do our best. We'll keep

but really... Throw some comments and then maybe we'll give you some more content to work with because I got all kinds of videos ready to... Request some songs. We're down. We're down to do whatever you want. We're Because we just come up with these right before we sit down and record. We've come up with these before we're watching a playoff game.

When we decide, hey, whatever the next fucking song comes on, we're going to pick that one. There it is. So we could use some requests. All right. I got some slaps to do it out, right? Oh, that's right. You haven't done that yet? Give us your slaps and snaps.

Reg. I keep out of. Forget. I keep forget. I keep forget. Oh, shit. You gave a lot of extra, dude. You gave me the regulars.

I keep forgetting a bunch of fucking snaps. So this song is up there for you. I feel like our history of five slap is. We got to do a shitty song. I am so on the border with giving this five slaps. I'm just like, I feel like we just gave Cheryl Lynn five slaps. It might be for me because, like, this song is an Intigrille part of Little Castle growing up, man. I got to say, I listened to this song so much in high school.

I actually had this memory of one time when I was listening to my headphones. and when I was in the wrestling room, I was a wrestling team when I was in high school. And like right after I took my headphones out, this guy who randomly would just walk around just goes,

Regulators! And I was just like, are you shitting me, dude? I was just listening to Regulars. It was like, dude, what are the odds that it happened? I was like, it's fucking tracking my life right now. Like, that was when I was like

on that fucking slide right there. Back in the day, when we used to like just listen to songs all the time of your car on repeat and shit, those are the songs that I know the best lyrics to, so I didn't even need to bring up the lyrics to this, but I did just to get the in-between of what made this such a sketchy story,

and it was a sketchy one. And if it's any bearing of truth, how is Nate and Warren not in jail as we speak? They probably should have ended up in jail after all this, but, you know. Well, Nate dies. It's cool. All they did is make a song about it. Rest in peace, Nate Dogg, the best hookmaster to ever do it.

I'll forever be paying homage to you and to that. One more time, I think we've got to give it to him. You ready?
