Advantages: Sublime Rapping Talent, Dr Dre Producing
Disadvantages: None
It annoys me when people say Rap Music has been outdated, but I disagree very strongly raps been going since the late eighties and is still going strong. The reason I'm doing this op on doggystyle by none other than snoop dogg is that it was the best rap album no let me rephrase that it was the best album of 93.
93 I hear you say but it's 2001 thats eight years ago, I say to well done on your a-level in maths. although it is eight years old classic albums stick in the mind especially if you love rap which I do. This album was released by death row records the biggest rap record label back then with the infamous suge knight at the helm. The album is also produced by Dr. Dre and when you get someone that big producing your album you know it's gonig to be good.
Here is the track listing for doggystyle
1. Bathtub
2. G-Funk Intro
3. Gin And Juice*
4. Tha Shiznit*
5. Lodi Dodi
6. Murder Was The Case*
7. Serial Killa
8. Who Am I (Whats My Name)*
9. For All My N*****z & B*****s
10. Ain't No Fun*
11. Doggy Dogg World
12. Gz & Hustlas*
13. Pump Pump
The songs with the stars are my favourite songs on the album and i will give a breif desription of them below
Gin & Juice (UK No.4)
Fantastic song done all by himself which has a great tune in the background and has a catchy chorus "sipping on gin and juice layed back with ma mind on ma money and ma money on ma mind" dammit i have to stop that.
Tha Shiznit
A song released on death row greatest hits which has many great songs on and includes this. The tune must have been so catchy that Ol' Dirty Bastard of the wu-tang clan stole (Borrowed) for his song got ya money.
Murder Was The Case
This song features daz dillinger from the dogg pound and tells the story when snoop dogg gets killed by some gansters and comes back to earth with a great life doesn't make
much sence but fantastic chorus.
Who Am I (Whats My Name)
The biggest song on the album and the only one that MTV turned into a video which is pritty stupid considering all the great songs on thge album. This song was like the nuthin but a 'G' thang on the chronic and set off snoops career
Ain't No Fun
I huge contender for the best song on the album this song features nate dogg, warren g and kurupt who do a great job with the lyrics with the master chorus maker nate dogg not failing to deliver another quality chorus.
Gz And Hustlas
Why wasn't it released by far the best song on the album. The start begins with a substitute teacher asking kids what they want to be when they grow up the first says a policeman the second says fireman and the third snoop says he wants to be a mutha fuckin' hustler the song then kicks of with the excellent beat that makes it the best track on this album and the fact that it's done all by himself which always means it's going to be good.
On the whole a great album with at least 5 Amazing songs and no poor songs. Doggystyle has been out for 8 years but is still bought today it has even been digitally remastered and is now sold under ron winter productions who have taken the rights to all death row titles. Doggystyle is available from all music stores with sence and can be purchased for around £11-£12
I rate this album 10 out of 10 and I don't often give products 10 out of 10 so go and buy it now.
