Warren G & Nate Dogg - '
Regulate' (1994)
Any person growing up through the nineties will probably love this song as much as I do. It's one of those that everyone knew the lyrics and used to listen to on their walkmans, sharing the earphones in the playing fields during lunch. I remember doing a whole routine to a few of my girlfriends wearing my tie around my head in true Tupac Shakur style.

Being very much into the "crime drama" film genre growing up too, I loved any films featuring homeboys and rappers such as Boyz N the Hood, New Jack City, Juice and Friday. Flycasual knew this and took advantage of me one day saying he had a great new film that was amazing and I'd love it, called
Above The Rim which featured the afore mentioned Tupac. I remember watching it, loving it and Regulate was on its soundtrack, bonus!

The next day, a smirking Flycasual came back to me asking 'so how was the film? I bet it was crap!' I explained it was excellent and up there with the best of them, but hang on hadn't he seen it? The cheeky bugger wanted me to screen it first to see if it was worth him watching it!
