A new twist is put on a West Coast Hip Hop classic by Winnipeg drummer Curtis Nowosad who builds upon 2pac and Dr. Dre's "California Love" with plenty of exciting improvisation and swing. In the traditional approach of Jazz, Curtis does the unbelievable by transforming a powerful G-Funk song towards a smooth vibe which is bound to entertain both the Jazz and Hip Hop fan. From his 2012 LP "The Skeptic & The Cynic" which is available to stream here at bandcamp.
