Need some help with finding some laid back hip-hop.

[Piano Man]

Title pretty much says it all. Examples would be "Acid Raindrops" by People Under the Stairs, "Regulate" by Warren G and Nate Dogg, and "Bonita Applebaum" by A Tribe Called Quest. Jazz Rap/Hip-Hop and G-funk are prefered. Thanks.

"nobody (does it better)" nate dogg feat. warren g (off 'the woo' ost)

"never leave me alone" nate dogg feat. snoop dogg

"music and me" nate dogg (from his album with the same name"

"moment of truth" gangstarr

...thats all i can think of right now...

 

[Woody06]

The eazy-e version is great, but if youve never heard Dynamite Hack do it you really should.
