Advantages: 13 great tracks, His best album

Disadvantages: None

I have been a rap fan for quite a while now and Snoop Dogg has become my favorite rap artist. I only have 3 of his albums(Doggy Style, Tha Last Meal and Dead Man Walkin)out of the 6 that he has made(the other 3 are Top Dogg, Dogg Father and Tha game is to be sold and not to be told) This was on of the albums he fisrt brought out and he brought this out in 1993 ans was released bt death row rcords(who he has now left). Snoop before this was hardly well known and was heard when he featured on Dre's hit Nothin but a "G" Thang. Dre also produced this album and the exucutive producer was Suge Knight. With Dre producing this album it instantly got wanted publicty to all fans who loved gangsta rap. The content on this album largely comes down to his life as a kid and what he saw because this is what most rappers do. At the time this album was compered to Dre's The Chronic so it also got a lot of publicity in going head to head with Dre's album because at the time Dre was the biggest rappers around.

The thing that i think stands out is that Snoop has got a unique voice so you know when you hear one of his tracks you know it is his. Also his lyrics stood as as well and he talked about things that could be offensive to people who did'nt really understand him and would not like him because of what he rapped about. This album at the time was setting the standard of rap and a lot of people tried to follow it. Now in this day and age there are a lot of rappers and a lot of this could be down to the release of this album because it got a lot of people into this genre of music so it became very popular.

The album consists of 13 tracks which does not sound a lot which it is'nt but the stndard of all the tracks is excellent unlike many other albums on the market. The tracks include

BathTub
G Funk Intro
Gin and Juice
Tha Siznit
Lodi Dodi
Murder was the Case
Serial Killer
Who am I (Whats my Name)
F
or all my Niggaz & Bitches
Ain't no Fun
Doggy Dogg World
Gz and Hustlas
Pump Pump

All of the tracks on this album contains bad language this is to tie into the fact this album is telling people what he has expierienced and what it was like and he has tried to share this with the listeners. This album anyway in my opinion is the best one that snoop has brought out just because it brings in different aspects of style and many different interesting lyrics.

I am going to describe some of the better tracks on the album.

Gin and Juice
This was one of the songs on the album that he did by himself. The chorus is very catchy and it is one of the poppiest songs on the track. It is also one of the easiest to dance to as well. So it makes the track very popular.

Who am I (Whats my Name)
This is one of two songs that is self titled (along with the one on Tha Last Meal) and had some resemblence to the song nuthin but a "G" thang which was also a success. Very catcy once again with a great beat

Overall this album is jam packed with quality and too many rap fans is a must buy. This album will offend many people which can't be helped when you are talking the truth. The albums tracks are all packed with heavy beats and will get you going.
