Dove Shack is a rap group hailing from Long Beach, California, that first rose to prominence in the mid-1990s. Originally consisting of members Bo-Roc, C-Knight, and 2Scoops, the trio quickly made a name for themselves within the West Coast hip-hop scene. Their laid-back lyrical delivery, coupled with mellow beats, represented the G-funk era of rap, which was popularized by artists like Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, and Warren G, the latter of whom helped introduce Dove Shack to a wider audience.

Their debut album, "This Is The Shack", released in 1995, featured the hit single "Summertime in the LBC," which became a summertime anthem and remains their most recognizable track. Since their early success, Dove Shack has continued to embody the smooth, West Coast sound in their subsequent releases. Although their releases have been less frequent, the group has stayed true to their roots, as evident in tracks like "Mendocino" and "Hustle & Grind," which echo the G-funk style while incorporating modern hip-hop elements. Dove Shack's influence may not dominate the mainstream, but they maintain a dedicated fanbase that appreciates their unique contributions to the genre.
