It's actually cool that Snoop bought death row, it's a shame such influential lable turned into whatever it is now. But on the dub I'm good, I just like to pop in time from time to remind infinite he's a piece of shyt. Shame that euro loser jome did everything he could to kill the place

So I checked Doggystyleeee out, and I'm not going to front when he first stepped on the scene I didn't bother to check out his music just off the strength of his name:mjlol: :hubie:


:whoa: but Yo I'm 45, I'm from the 88-96 era so we stuck in our ways about hip hop, Bay Area Mobb Music, Bay Area Underground, West Coast Gangsta Rap, L..A. Underground, Daytona Family, Geto Boys, Dungeon Family, Native Tongues, all that hip hop shyt from the East, South and West from that era

So I gave Doggystyleeee a listen, and Snoop should step to the side and make him The flagship artist for Death Row. What I like about Doggystyleeee he does West Coast Gangsta Rap and his sound is G Funk it's not TDE alternative gangsta rap, it's G Funk Gangsta West Coast Rap with the West Coast G Funk sound that we all love

He got the look, The Voice to be The Main Artist and The Face of Death Row and The West Coast

But he needs to expand his Vocabulary a little bit, get a little slick with his lyrics, if you going to be the Face Of Death Row and Death Row represent West Coast then you got be slick with the rhyme's like A Young Pup Named Snoop in 1992 when the Chronic drop, ain't talking about he have to be Kurupt and shyt, but like Mitchy Slick. And his subject matter also, I'm 45 don't care to hear about busting nuts in women faces every other song

Death Row needs to have an in house production team so they can have a Sound and a Main Producer they need to find their Dre

Here Are the Albums Included in Snoop Dogg's Death Row Deal
According to Billboard, the rapper/entrepreneur has finalized a deal to purchase the iconic imprint’s recording catalog. The news comes just weeks after Snoop confirmed he had purchased the Death Row brand from MNRK, the NYC music company that acquired the label in 2013.

Though the terms of the catalog deal have not been disclosed, it was previously reported that Snoop’s acquisition will not include some of Death Row’s most popular records: Dr. Dre’s The Chronic or 2Pac’s All Eyez On Me and The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory.

Billboard reports the Pac projects are now owned by Amaru Entertainment and the Tupac estate, while Dre’s sole Death Row album is expected to return to him sometime in 2023.

What Death Row albums were included in Snoop’s deal? According to the outlet, he now has full control of his 1993 effort Doggystyle, his 1996 project Tha Doggfather, as well as a number of soundtracks, compilations, and records by artists like Daz Dillinger, Lady of Rage, and Kurupt. It’s also worth noting that Snoop’s albums, including the newly released BODR (Back on Death Row), are some of the best-selling releases under the Death Row banner. In 2021, Doggystyle earned 169,000 units in album consumption activity; The Doggfather generated nearly 8,000 units; and BODR has moved about 10,000 units since its release earlier this month.

According to Billboard’s estimates, the entire Death Row catalog generated about $6 million for MNRK in 2021. Financial executives who specialize in music assets say Snoop’s Death Row deal is valued at $50 million.

β€œIt feels good to have ownership of the label I was part of at the beginning of my career and as one of the founding members,” Snoop said when announcing the Death Row acquisition. β€œThis is an extremely meaningful moment for me.”

Complex has reached out for comment.
