[[Above The Law]] is a [[Gangsta Rap]] group that emerged as protegees of Dr. Dre and signed to [[Eazy-E]]'s Ruthless Records. Particularly group leader Cold 187um (also known as Big Hutch), who was Dre's understudy, and claims to have created the G-Funk sound for which Dre was subsequently credited for, with Above The Law's 1992 album ''Black Mafia Life'', which was released before Dre's ''The Chronic'' and similarly featured a mix of Gangsta Raps and [[Funk]] influence.
 
After Eazy-E's death, the group moved to Tommy Boy Records, and later, ironically enough, to Death Row Records. Not surprisingly, things didn't work out too well at Death Row, and the album they were supposed to be released on that label [[Development Hell|didn't come out until 2009]] when it was [[Saved From Development Hell]] (a single from the album was released in ''2002'').
Line 7:
 
Cold 187um has had a successful solo career, releasing four solo albums to date, with a fifth on the way. As Big Hutch, he toured with [[Psychopathic Records]] artists, and later signed with that label.
