| Latest News: Warren G Readies Sixth Studio Album With 2 Street Singles |
|
 West coast rapper Warren G is close to finishing his much-anticipated sixth studio outing, The G Files.
The album is still a work in progress however, two new street singles are now in circulation. The classic G-Funk anthem, 'Mr. DJ,' is already receiving good reviews online, and the brand new, infectious 'Gigolo's Get Lonely 2,' both expected to be given airplay in the near future.
The G Files, Warren's first album in four years, will feature appearances from Nate Dogg, Bishop Lamont, Ice Cube, Paul Wall, and Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker. The first official single is due to be released soon, called 'Swagga Rich' featuring Snoop Dogg. The Long Beach bred, Grammy Award-nominated, music producer/rapper grew up listening to jazz, soul and funk records, and hanging out at the local V.I.P. record store in Long Beach. He soon pioneered a sound that would take rap to a new plateau. In 1994 G-Funk became a worldwide phenomenon, as the most musical and enduring strain of gangsta rap. Warren G exploded onto the scene in 1994 with the single 'Regulate,' a duet with long-time friend Nate Dogg. It's accompanying album, Regulate...G Funk Era went triple platinum and peaked at #2 on the Billboard charts. A slew of hit records, and global sell-out tours would follow, and in 2004 saw the reunion of childhood friends, and superstar trio, 213 (Snoop Dogg, Warren G & Nate Dogg), with their album The Hard Way, achieving platinum status. |

 Hussein Fatal has been dropped by his record label Global Music Group after just 6 months. On February 22, 2009 the former member of 2Pac's Outlawz was given a full release from Global Music Group, and dropped from the label.
Despite readying an upcoming single, and completing a music video, the rapper failed to meet contract requirements by delivering the masters of his album Born Legendary to the label within the contract deadline. Global Music Group issued a statement on their website which read, "GMG has tried on numerous occasions to obtain these masters but to no avail." - K. Blair |

 Dawn Robinson is back with En Vogue as well as working on a solo album. We have a exclusive song from Dawn called Man Enough. Most west coast fans will remember her stuff for The Firm, Dr. Dre, or for the Aftermath Entertainment compilation if they weren't listening to En Vogue. I, for one, am glad that Dawn is making a massive return to the industry. We here at West Coast Aftershock wish her all the best. Click here to download the track.

 A couple of the tracks from Detox were leaked within the last few days one being Topless which is a T.I. ghost written track for Dr. Dre featuring Nas, and the other track being Shit Popped Off again written by T.I. We would give links, but Interscope are removing them rather consistently and we don't condone the leaking. The same situation has happened with the tracks Crack A Bottle and Just Think/Could've Been You. Certain sources told me that a plethora of tracks were hacked from the studio databases, and others believe T.I. is responsible for the two latest leaks. Who knows for certain. Let's just hope the album comes out sometime soon.
