Producer
Laylaw is opening up the vaults to uncover some recordings by Hip Hop "s biggest
names.
California producer Laylaw was one of the architects of the G-Funk sound. His
work with Dr. Dre has appeared on releases for Ruthless Records, Death Row Records,
and Aftermath Entertainment. Laylaw also served as advisor to Eazy E during
his days with groundbreaking gangsta- rap group N.W.A. After that the producer
created music with the late 2Pac, their association starting with the rapper’s
sophomore album Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z.
Knowing all the connections Laylaw has made with historic members of the Hip
Hop community it is unsurprising but, exciting nonetheless, that his vaults
would be crammed with unreleased gems. Now, with his Lawhouse Records imprint,
the producer plans to release some of those lost gems. First up is the triple
disc, box-set “Lawhouse Greatest Hitz.” That album will feature
both released and unreleased music from Ice Cube, 2Pac, DJ Quik, E-40, Above
The Law, Eazy-E, MC Ren, Nas, Flo-Rida, Pharcyde, Luniz, Michel’le, Stanley
Clarke, George Duke, among others.
Laylaw is also planning on exposing some new talent to the world with Lawhouse
Records. His most prominent signing is South Central, Los Angeles rapper Chuck
Crazy, who recently released his first single, “L.A. Waves.”
