The really positive thing is that there are a lot more G-Funk producers now than there used to be 7-8 years ago. There is almost a renaissance of the genre at the moment, even if it is not a mainstream thing and it a small group of like minded people - they are dedicated to their craft and are actually improving with time. I don't see a thread about it, but that new Blue Era Fam album is absolutely incredible, best beats Docc Free has ever made, vintage G-Funk material. I have not been in such an awe of an album for a really really long time.
