The Twinz are a hip hop duo from Long Beach, California, consisting of twin brothers Deon "Trip Loc" and Dewayne "Wayniac" Williams. After working with Warren G on his debut album Regulate...G Funk Era, the Twinz released their own debut album Conversation in 1995, during which they found modest hits with "Round & Round" and "Eastside LB". This album is now considered an overlooked classic.[who?]

In 1997 the duo appeared on Warren G's second album "Take a Look Over Your Shoulder" on the track "We Brings Heat". On Tha Eastsidaz 2000 debut album, Snoop Dogg Presents Tha Eastsidaz, the Twinz were featured on the track "Dogghouse" under the name Tha Locs. There were rumours around that the Twinz signed a deal under the name Tha Locs with Snoop Dogg's label, but in the end they were never mentioned on the official roster list of Doggystyle Records.[citation needed]
