Meth slid fr

Need a new album from him fr

Meth always kills it, I swear.

Yeah. Method Man snapped on this.

He been on a features RUN the last 1-2 years.

decades*

Doggystyle to Blue Carpet Treatment from 2006 is the run + Bush in 2015.

Blue Carpet was also his last major mainstream success - Ego Tripping (the next album after Blue Carpet) is when it falls off not only in sales but also quality.

Great:

Bush
No Limit Topp Dogg
Tha Last Meal
Rhythm and Gangsta
Hard Love (group collab album with Warren G and Nate Dogg)

Good:

Paid tha Cost to be tha Boss
Blue Carpet Treatment
Snoop Presents: The Eastsidaz (group album with artists he discovered, their debut)

Ok/Mediocre:

The Game is to be Sold Not Told
Tha Doggfather

Then there's also Dead Man Walkin' which was unreleased songs from Snoop (songs he recorded in 94 to 97 iirc) released by Suge after he left Death Row to go to Master P's No Limit label as a warning to Snoop (hence the "album" title) when Snoop was talking about Suge in interviews and for leaving.

It has some good songs and bad songs, and its basically a mixtape released against Snoops will as basically a blackmail threat lol - from 98 if im not mistaken, but not considered official by Snoop.

• Edit: Dead Man Walkin' is actually from 2000 I just read, it was due to Snoop talking in depth about the Death Row era in interviews while signed to No Limit, and Suge didn't like that. It consists of unreleased vaulted songs from 93 of Doggystyle leftovers all the way to 98 when Snoop left Death Row to go to No Limit.

Damn you just gave me the playbook. Gonna copy this into my notes app. Appreciate you brother

no problem bro

Love R&G

Transition from Shangri-La to Out Da Blue is f***ing......

Only song i don't click with is the Sting one

Em did Beautiful

This and Mount Westmore is the perfect back to back projects to retire on if Snoop ever thought so of doing

Doggystyle is obviously unmatched but;

No limit top dogg… this is he’s second best album, it’s a return to the west coast sound after his lacklustre no limit debut and marked a return of Dre production

Last meal… his next album is probably his third best, a quirkier more fun sound than top dogg and marked a more fun persona that he rolls with to this day

Blue carpet treatment… personally (singles aside) I wasn’t massive fan of the pharrell run and this album marked a return of a more varied west coast sound, and the first Dre production since last meal (if I recall correct)

Id probably put the new one next (either side of BCT tbh)

Aside from those albums I’d say R&G and Paid the cost are worth checking out, although inconsistent imo and as far as late career albums I enjoyed Coolaid and Neva Left… BODR is solid (if you forget the album goes beyond track 12). Bush was basically just an album of snoop singing that I find overrated on here personally

Before Travis Dr. Dre was the one standing in the back of the session saying "make that s*** darker"

Nah, that cover's crazy.

How's it sounding btw?

Might peep tomorrow during my shift.

It's alright. Some great tracks mixed with some not-so-great. Singles were the weakest part and that Em/50 track is a real disappointment, Snoop's rapping is great, the beats are insanely overproduced but overall it's decent. Just don't expect it to be next Doggystyle or 2001 (or TBCT).
