Hip Hop & Trap Whistle Sound/Sample...?

How do you make that 'eerie' sounding iconic hip hop whistle sound that started in the West Coast with the G Funk Era (Dr Dre) and that everyone still seems to use now-a-days in modern trap beats/music ...?

Is there a sample out there that you can use instead if not wanting/needing to sound design...? If so...is there a sample pack out there that contains that iconic whistle sound...?

Any help and/or suggestions would be appreciated.
 
The most basic saw lead with portamento. Search for "funky worm" or "gangsta whine". This has been covered numerous times on FP alone.
 
There are many lead presets that sound the same as Dr. Dre "whistle". You can find these presets in Nexus for example. Or try to make your own. Simple saw wave, slightly LFO pitch (vibrato effect), portamento (or glide).
