Most people have heard of Mr. Snoop Dogg. When asked about Mr. Dogg, people say “he’s a rapper right? he’s that tall skinny rapper guy.” These things are true. Snoop has been on top of the “rap game” for the past 16 years with no shortage of rap music hits along the way. I would even go as far as to say that I really like Snoop Dogg’s music, hell I might even say I love it! So when Mr. Dee Oh Double G put out a new album I had to check it out.

After listening I have this to say. Most of the album rules! It’s much more consistently interesting than most Top 40 hip hop records that are generally limited to one or two singles and 13 tracks of filler, 4 tracks that are skits, and an intro. Snoop keeps it going! I was sitting, working, and grooving to this record at work when all of a sudden something changed, I almost spilled my coffee. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing.

Snoop was dedicating a song to Johnny Cash, who was, as Snoop put it, “a real American gangsta.” Then Snoop launches into a FULL ON COUNTRY SONG. For real. It never turns into rap, it’s just a country song. By Snoop Dogg.

Whoa.
