Background[edit]

The vocals are shared by Dre and Snoop Doggy Dogg, who drop in trademark references to Long Beach and Compton, California. The song contains samples from Leon Haywood's 'I Want'a Do Something Freaky To You', 'B-Side Wins Again' by Public Enemy and 'Uphill (Peace of Mind)' by Kid Dynamite. On the inside cover of The Chronic, under 'Credits', Haywood's name is incorrectly given as 'L. Hayward'.

Dre and Snoop returned for a sequel to the song titled 'The Next Episode' (2000).

Snoop Dogg's first single from Da Game Is to Be Sold, Not to Be Told was a sequel to the song titled 'Still a G Thang'. Dre and Snoop retooled 'Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang' into the titular theme of their 2001 comedy film The Wash.

Music video[edit]

The music video, directed by Dr. Dre,^[6] depicts Dre coming into Long Beach, California to pick up Snoop and go to a block party. They arrive at the party and perform the first verses outside while a barbecue cookout and a game of volleyball goes on. A female player's (Mercedes Ashley)^[7] bikini top is pulled down by 'T-Dubb', an original member of the Long Beach rap group Foesum, exposing her breasts. For the next verses they go inside the house. A small sequence of events shows a snobbish female party-goer humiliated by being sprayed with shaken-up malt liquor. The video ends with Dre dropping Snoop off back at his house, with Snoop staggering up the driveway. The MTV edit censors nudity, drug paraphernalia, Warren G with a blunt, copyrighted logos, a White Sox ball cap, and screen text.

In popular culture[edit]

Ja Rule's track 'Livin' It Up' contains a sample of the song.^[8] It was nominated for a Grammy Award.^[9]Mariah Carey's song 'You Had Your Chance' samples this song as well. The song was parodied by The Fringemunks to recap Fringe episode 2.04 'Momentum Deferred'.^[10] The song was featured in the 2003 film Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle and the 2004 video game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas on a fictional radio station, Radio Los Santos.

Accolades[edit]

'Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang' is listed in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll. It is Dre's only song on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time, ranked number 419, not counting two other songs that feature Dre as producer and on vocals, N.W.A's 'Fuck tha Police' and 2Pac's 'California Love'.

Criticism[edit]

Gangsta rap in the 1990s, set and marked a sexist trend that was immortalized by the immense popularity of NWA and the song 'Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang,' by Dr. Dre and Snoop Doggy Dogg. With lyrics that define women the artists might 'fuck' as 'bitches', lyrics throughout the rap game increasingly referred to women almost exclusively by the label that originally referred to a female dog. With lyrics like 'And before me dig on a bitch I have to find a contraceptive. / You never know, she could be earn'n her man and learn'n her man / And at the same time burn'n her man,' repetitive exposure to songs like 'Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang' led other groups and fans to adopt the practice of portraying women 'as dirty sex toys that have no value other than the pleasure they can provide during intercourse.'^[15]

In 1998, CBS reported that Senator Sam Brownback (R-Kansas), who sought hearings in the Senate Commerce Science and Transportation Committee, 'said he was concerned that the music industry is marketing its most violent and misogynist music to teens.' The report added, 'While industry executives assert that children are protected from this music, much evidence suggests that most hyper-violent albums are bought by children.' Advisory labels was an outcome of the hearings.^[16]

Rappers counter these arguments. They suggest that their misogynist lyrics are counter-hegemonic; they offer an oppositional and empowering voice of resistance to the mainstream views of and about Black men in America.^[17]

Musically, the funk orientation in hip-hop is often linked to 'Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang' but its roots were laid by another rap group, Above the Law. 'Nuthin’ But a G Thang echoes Above the Law’s Never Missin’ a Beat' [sic], according to a 2016 article in The Guardian.^[18] Both groups interpolated the signature funk grooves of Parliament-Funkadelic.
