- - (1992). As much as gang life and the specter of Death Row/ Suge Knight infuse the lyrics, Dre’s production was a leap forward from everything that came before. Real instruments vie with samples for more organic and soulful grooves, while co-star Snoop Dogg provides a laidback counterpoint to Dre’s harder vision. “Nuthin’ but a ‘G’ Thang” proved rap no longer had to turn vanilla (ice) to crack the pop charts.

▶️ Glanced the headline "No Live Coverage of Trump Arrest" — and my mind hyperlinked to this LP cover for a never-happened band I made in 1999.

📷 In 1999, I had a new $6K Mac desktop with all the trimmings and graphics apps. Most evenings, I partook of for my and nerve disorder-pain. Pre-legal weed in bought at the dispensary @ Church/Market with an Rx from my doc.

"Chihuahua Posse" is two "found" photos, one screened onto the other.

▶️ I came equipped with , ample snacks and bevs and spent those nights futzing around on a new $6K machine with my own photography and found images.

This is an LP cover for an imaginary band—

🎧 In 1990, I settled into a group flat on Guerrero @ 16th/17th—between my locals, Jack's Elixir and the 500 Club. A convivial time with "fine and decent people" it was. "The 5" added "Ritual De Lo habitual" to the CD juke, and those songs became the soundtrack for friendly-bet games in the "billiards parlor"—a rurnt side-room in a dive bar, but that's what called it! He's another toot, another time— with a metal plate in his head. Howard looked like youtu.be/ZwI02OHtZTg
