Which of these artists is famous for popularizing “G-Funk”?

Dr. Dre

Dr. Dre, with the release of his debut solo album "The Chronic" in 1992, revolutionized hip-hop by introducing "G-Funk," a sub-genre of rap that incorporates elements of 70s funk, synthetic bass lines, and laid-back melodies. This album not only established Dre as a leading producer but also served as a platform for other artists like Snoop Dogg, introducing a distinctive sound that would dominate West Coast rap in the 90s. The profound influence of "The Chronic" transcended the musical realm, impacting global popular culture and solidifying Dre’s status as a music icon.
