Instead of signing with LA's Death Row Records (who had released Dre and Snoop's albums), Warren G signed with Def Jam in New York and quickly proved he had something remarkable up his sleeve as well. His 1994 debut Regulate . . . The G Funk Era was certified multi-platinum in the U.S., sold over 10 million units worldwide and earned multiple award nominations (Grammy, American Music, Soul Train, and Brit). Robert Christgau of Village Voice declared the album one of his hip-hop favorites that year, even noting it "lither and subtler than anything on The Chronic." Russell Simmons would later cite Warren G's signing as a "turning point" for Def Jam and its subsequent mega-success. "After that, Def Jam never looked back," Simmons says in his book Life and Def.
