Hard Knocks is cool, so is Pressure

The Tom Petty joint is kinda smooth but Jelly Roll ass is not needed - joint gives a Bubba Sparxx Deliverance vibe tho which is nice

The joint with Meth is good and the rest of the album picks up at the end and wraps up well

50 Cent cannot rap anymore and it's kinda sad. Em verse is fine, he doesn't yell anymore which is refreshing

Snoop is giving a good performance on here but it just feels stiff overall. Dre shyt just ain't hearty anymore, it reminds me of the Anderson Paak Oxnard album. Technically sound but lacking soul.

I don't hate it though - it's honestly decent if a bit boring

This project fits perfectly into the catalog of mid-to-average Snoop albums since his debut

This is a Pop Rap album

Like something Flo-rida or Pitbull would make

I'm not feeling this shyt at all :francis:

At least with those two, they'd be making bank and have an audience and make their money in the clubs.

This somehow is more disappointing than Compton. Best way to describe the album is a lazy money grab. Snoop and Dre banked on the notion of nostalgia instead of delivering on it. I actually don't mind the track with Jelly Roll...but that should have been on a Jelly Roll album, not a Snoop one. Same with the Sting track; save that for some sort of Sting rerelease instead of a Snoop album.

There's a thousand things you can say about what Snoop should have done, who he should have worked with, etc., but the biggest mistake was hyping it up as a sequel to Doggystyle and smacking Dre's name being associated.
