I think his other qualities like his flow and charisma overshadow the fact that he is very capable as a lyricist. He never was elite lyrically but he is more than just rhyming S-N-O-O-P D-O-G-G every song

Love Snoop but he's a legend for his flow & personality. Not his lyrical ability. Dude has made a career rapping practically the same verse over and over again.

Thats something I read way too often, just gotta really peep his whole catalogue
Im lookin forward to what he offerin on the new album, he said he really out to make a statement this time, no co writers & shyt

Snoop writes better rhymes than ANYONE in today's rap game. It's hilarious how some of y'all will be like "Snoop average/below average lyrically" then turn around and dikkride Ducktales Lamar.

Snoop's pen game shyts on Rosenberg's.

this shyt



:blessed:

yeah this song comes to mind when I saw something like this,

when you really think rappers in general could all spit like that, if they wanted to, but some like snopp dogg prefer to stick to their known style.

but with snopp having ghostwriters(when it comes to not freestyling) got this convo kinda :patrice:

Lets be reality if you think Snoop is an average lyricist you basically exposed yourself as a casual. Dude has great verses well beyond Doggy style



One of the better verses of last year. I think people let his laid back style and flows overshadow the fact that he is a great lyricist at his core from the Slick Rick school.

Its a combination of this, and the fact that he has had some co writers/verses written for him. Even tho he doesnt need it, he has done it for various reasons and thats kinda why people dont take him serious lyrically on his own

I unno about that dog.

Even tho it has brought us classics, lyrically tho its not the moments he shines imo. Like people have said here thats when he
typically raps the S-N-double O-P D-O-double G, L-B-C, 2-1-3, D-P-G type of stuff. Cuz its off the dome.

Dog, peep the avi. Im a fan and im aware of his discography.

But we were talking about when he freestyles his verses vs. writing them down. I believe its better structured and lyrically sharper when its written, for obvious reasons.

Ok I misunderstood that then, but his freestyle skills are A1 just like he can come with lyrical shyt if he wants to.
If someone can freestyle songs like "Gz & Hustlaz", "Tha Shiznit", "Stranded On Death Row" :wow::wow::wow::wow:

Nothing lyrical about that "dip you, whip you, crip to issue" bs

Rage, RBX, and Kurupt and Doc all have better pens

:snoop::snoop::snoop::snoop::snoop::snoop:

Dude I never said snoop had a BETTER pen than kurupt lyrically for example. I just said that hes underrated.
And by assuming hes just spittin "dip you, whip you, crip to issue" bs you just exposed yourself as a casual listener who never peeped his discography
