Regulate (song)

Last updated

We 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 your keep.

Background

Warren had bought a stack of vinyl records for $250 from a poor man he felt bad for outside of a Rosco's in Hollywood. Among them was Michael McDonald's I Keep Forgettin’, a song he recalled from his stepmother and father's gatherings in North Long Beach. Warren decided to sample a four bar loop from the track for Regulate. [8] [9] [10]

At the time, Warren was living in a dingy apartment which had no furniture and dog stools on the floor. It was located by Long Beach Boulevard and San Antonio Drive in North Long Beach. His setup included recording equipment in the bedroom and a vocal booth in the bathroom and closet. His gear consisted of a Numark mixer, Technics 1200 turntables and an Akai MPC 60. [9] [10] [11]

While watching Young Guns, Warren was inspired by the line “Regulators: We regulate any stealing of this property, and we’re damn good, too”. He resonated with the term "regulate" which he and his crew frequently used. Together with his engineer, Greg Geitzenauer, Warren rented the film on VHS and recorded the sample using ADATs, a brand new VHS-based digital recorders technology at the time, allowing them to record the sample at home for cheap. Warren used his label advance to purchase a multi-track home studio rig. Geitzenauer went to Guitar Center to get a console, microphone preamps, speaker monitors, the ADATs, and cabling and set up all the gear in the apartment. The ADAT and VCR was then plugged with quarter-inch to RCA adapters into the MPC 60 sequencer to sample the line. [9] [10] [11] [8]

Warren also whistled a riff from Bob James' 1981 funk-jazz fusion album Sign of the Times. Geitzenauer added keyboards with a string sound derived from a Yamaha SY77, the riff was in the style of a Hammond organ at the end of every fourth bar. A Minimoog-type sound was used during the Young Guns dialogue, this was one of the last parts added to the song. [9] [10]

Before this session, Warren had been producing beats and saving them. When Nate Dogg was invited over to visit the apartment, he immediately liked the instrumental for Regulate. They began writing and recording the song together in the same session, inspired by the duet style of Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre's Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang, and Run-DMC. They decided the song only needed verses and no chorus. The lyrics were semi-autobiographical, but the lyrics related to the dice game incident happened to a friend of their's [9] [10] they witnessed on 61st Street. [12]

In an NME interview, Warren G explained "That record was things that I went through, and friends of ours went through. We'd witnessed that and we'd been a part of it. We just told the story, and then on the hook we just let everybody's imagination flow." [13]

Geitzenauer re-recorded the song's vocals at Track Studio in North Hollywood, noting that the track's lack of a hook was unusual with only the intro having the main riff. A radio-friendly version was also recorded, as Chris Lighty from Def Jam requested a cleaner version as the original would have had too many explicits words censored. The radio version became the main album version, while the original explicit version was never released. [10] [8]

The final version of "Regulate" was initially shopped around before being added to the Above the Rim soundtrack. A&R Mike Lynn, a long time associate of Dr. Dre, was shown a cassette of the track in Warren's 1985 Buick Regal. Lynn and played it for Dre, and the cassette eventually reached Jimmy Iovine, who pushed for "Regulate" as the single. Despite a label dispute—Nate was signed to Death Row Records and Warren to Def Jam—clearance was granted to Suge Knight and Death Row and the single was released. Lyor Cohen and Def Jam eventually re-released the single. [10] [8]

During the music video shoot, Warren missed most of it due to an incident where he drove off from a gas station with the gas pump hose still attached. He was pulled over by police leading to an arrest for outstanding warrants. He was then released from jail the same evening. [10]

Synopsis

Warren G is driving alone through Eastside, Long Beach, California at night, looking for women. He finds a group of men playing dice and tries to join them, but they pull out their guns and rob him instead. Thinking he's about to die, Warren G sings out, "if I had wings I would fly"; one critic describes this moment as "the hook" of the song. [14] [15] Meanwhile, Nate Dogg is looking for Warren G. He passes a car full of women, who are so fixated on him that they crash their car. He finds Warren G and shoots at the robbers, dispersing them. The two friends then return to the women and ride away with them, with the intent of taking them to the "Eastside motel". [15] In the third verse, Warren and Nate explain their G-funk musical style; the song "constructs itself as inaugurating a new era". [16]

Critical reception

Bill Speed and John Martinucci from the Gavin Report noted that here, the hip hop artists "tap blue-eyed soulman Michael McDonald's "I Keep Forgettin'" for the music bed and the familiar groove fuels the duo's narrative raps as they "Regulate"." [17] A reviewer from Music & Media commented, "Sung in a Bill Withers meets pioneer rapper Kurtis Blow timbre, there's something lovely old-fashioned about this soul number off the Above the Rim soundtrack." [18] An editor, Maria Jimenez, viewed it as a "laidback lyric-flowing hip hop jam". [19] Alan Jones from Music Week described it as a "mellow" song/rap sung over a sample of the 1986 remake. He added, "Sterling support from 2 Pac, Lord G and Treach/Riddler make this an excellent single." [20]

Dele Fadele from NME felt that "Dr Dre and his brother hitch a sad, ominous keyboard refrain onto the smooth, laid-back song and suggest there's more to the situation than meets the eye." [21] James Hamilton from the RM Dance Update deemed it a "lovely languid 0-95.3bpm US smash gangsta rap with catchy whistling". [22] Charles Aaron from Spin commented, "Funny (or maybe not) how pop's young soul rebels sound more comfortably sincere when they're romancing their gats than when they're sweet-talking their ladies. Guess you gotta start somewhere. Anyway, as a rapper, Warren G's a regular-joe version of childhood bud Snoop Dogg; as a producer, his gangsta fantasyland is even more slickly diminished than big brother Dr. Dre. Imagine a stripped Mothership up on blocks with a fresh paint job." [23]

Impact and analysis

"Regulate" became Def Jam's biggest single. [24] During much of the summer of 1994, the video stayed number one on the MTV charts. [25] In the video as played on MTV, the lyrics are censored with the word "cold" being blanked from the line "Nate Dogg is about to make some bodies turn cold"; an action that Spin equated with racism because more explicit songs by white artists like Johnny Cash were not being censored. [26] The video contained "everyday footage" from the film Above the Rim, as well as new footage, [25] although guest vocalist Nate Dogg did not appear due to conflict between Suge Knight and Def Jam. [27]

The lyrics have been described as "a surreal pastiche of half-sung lyrics about fighting and fucking". [28] Craig Marks recommended "Regulate" for its "lite rock synth lines and rippling bass" but thought that Warren G's rapping abilities were "average". [26] The mockumentary series Yacht Rock featured "Regulate" in its episode No. 7, [29] where Michael McDonald and Kenny Loggins make a bet about the popularity of the song, "I Keep Forgettin' (Every Time You're Near)". Ten years later, the Long Beach-based rappers accidentally hit McDonald with their car and take him back to their house, where they sample McDonald's smooth keyboard groove.
