In this exclusive full-length interview, we sit down with West Coast legend Chris “The Glove” Taylor — a pioneering DJ, producer, and engineer who helped shape the sound of 90s hip hop.

Born and raised in Los Angeles, The Glove breaks down his childhood, how he first fell in love with music, and the early days of becoming a DJ during the rise of West Coast hip hop culture. Before working behind the boards on some of the most important albums in rap history, Chris was already making waves — including appearing in the classic breakdancing films Breakin’ and Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo alongside hip hop icon Ice-T.

Chris went on to become a key engineer and producer on The Chronic with Dr. Dre, helping craft the signature G-Funk sound that changed hip hop forever. He also produced “Stranded on Death Row” and “Doggy Dogg World” for Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg, solidifying his place in rap history.

In Part 1 of this interview, The Glove takes us back to the beginning — the early DJ scene in Los Angeles, the evolution of hip hop culture in the 80s, and the foundation that led to Death Row’s dominance in the 90s. This is a must-watch for fans of 90s hip hop, West Coast rap, Death Row Records history, and behind-the-scenes stories from the golden era of rap.
