The dudes who hold all the recording dates for the death row sessions would be able to tell you *exactly* what's what
Doggystyle could have been even better with all these tracks...crazy

If the assorted extra tracks were put on there (with the exception of 'G'z Up, Hoez Down', which is really good), then it would have suffered, much like most other Snoop albums, which have way too many tracks on them.
Yeah Dr. Dre always said Doggystyle was unfinished and they were pressured into rushing to finish it. That's why they did that 48 hour session to just wrap it up with what they had, add the skits to it, & mix it. I could imagine if the album would've came out to Dre's standards, would've been even more of a classic.

The thing is on snoops latest albums there were alway a bunch of unnecessary filler tracks. But the songs were discussing here are all classic 5/5 snoop doggy dogg death row shit. If you play doggystyle today it alway feels like time is flying, and if you would include more of those classic songs it would still be the same thing. If all the songs on an album are straight, dope 5/5 tracks it might aswell be longer, would be absolutely no problem. Filler songs are something completely different.

Doggystyle contained some various cuts, but the final album was more a sequel, a "compilation" with a sound too much similar to The Chronic. Chris Taylor mixed a lot of tracks in order to quickly finish the album. What about the tracklist ? "G'z Up, Hoes Down" (sample authorization) or "The Next Episod" (forgotten ?) ... I prefered Tha Dogg Pound album, way better, more polished and actually more original than Snoop debut album.
Hasn't that got something to do with Snoops fascination with the numbers 18 and 19?
Still couldnt find the article but i'll try on. Anyone here maybe knows something about this ?
