Favorite Songs off Snoops Classic Da Game Is To Be Sold

[love33]

"Dead Man Walkin" was a solid album, but nowhere near "Tha Doggfather" or "Doggystyle"

I say:

01) Doggystyle - Death Row Records
02) Tha Doggfather - Death Row Records
03) Rhythm & Gangsta: The Masterpiece
04) No Limit Top Dogg - No Limit Records
05) Da Game Is To Be Sold - No Limit Records
06) Paid Da Cost To Be Da Boss - Doggystyle Records
07) Dead Man Walkin - Death Row Records
08) The Blue Carpet Treatment - Doggystyle Records
09) Tha Last Meal - No Limit Records
10) Ego Trippin - Doggystyle Records

If you want to throw his Snoop Dogg "Death Row Greatest Hits" in there which was released on Death Row Records I would say that would take the #2 slot and push the rest of them down.

LOL @ this album being considered a classic.

Indeed. This record is far from being a classic. He sold those 3 million copies because the name ''Snoop Dogg'' was established in the rap game after his first two records went multiple platinum. This record sold because of the name ''Snoop Dogg''  printed on the front cover and No Limit was hot in 1998. This is considered the worst album in Snoop's catalog.

Word

nah ego trippin is

agreed.

i dont get it why people hate that album like that?

whats wrong with it?tell me?because it was on no limit?because it was not much west coast influence on it?WHY?

MARK THESE WORDS: "DA GAME IS TO BE SOLD NOT TO BE TOLD" IS BETTER THAN EVERYTHING SNOOP DID AFTER "THA LAST MEAL" BELIEVE IT.FUCK Y`ALL IF YOU DISAGREE, PLAYA HATIN ASS BYATCHEZ!

Back 2 To Topic:

1. Snoop World (ft Master P)
2. Slow Down (ft Mia X)
4. Gin & Juice II
9. Whatcha Gon' Do? (ft Master P)
10. Still A G Thang
15. Game Of Life (ft Steady Mobb'n)

This was not true at all.  Let me take you on a journey back to 1997.  Snoop was trying to get "Smokefest" released on Death Row Records (it was later released as "Dead Man Walkin" years later) and Suge didn't think that the quality was good enough for a Snoop Doggy Dogg album at the time and that he had slipped off lyrically a bit.  Then Snoop ran to the Long Beach Telegram and said he feared for his life and he wanted to leave Death Row Records.  Suge sold his contract over to Master P at No Limit Records and Tha Dogg Pound stayed at Death Row Records.  Big rumors were going around that Snoop had lost his touch and that he ran to the South and he needed Master P to sell records.  Snoop was said to have been washed up since Tupac had ran Death Row before his death.  Snoop got on MTV and said this album is going to be a "Doggystyle 2" coming soon.  He dropped that "Still A G Thang" and everyone ran to the store to buy that album.  He then followed it up with "Gin and Juice II" and a slew of singles.  He dropped the "Doggy" from his name and became Snoop Dogg.  He said this was his biggest album on MTV at the time where he had truely matured as an artist and that's why he dropped the "Doggy" (along with the fact that Suge owned that name).  Snoop got with Beats By The Pound and dropped a classic and he answered his critics with 3 million albums sold and proved that he wasn't just another artist on Death Row and that he still had it without Dre or Suge.

I thought "Da Game Is To Be Sold..." was way better than "Tha Last Meal," "Ego Trippin," and "The Blue Carpet Treatment."  I think The Blue Carpet Treatment is his worst by far.  "Dead Man Walkin" is better than "The Blue Carpet Treatment."  "No Limit Top Dogg" was his best album on NL Records and "Da Game..." is second.

"Still A G Thang," "Snoop World," "Gin & Juice II," and "Woof" are all tight tracks -- and D.O.G.z Get Lonely 2

You don't have take nobody on a journey nowhere. I remember 1997 and don't seem to be wearing the same rose-colored glasses as you. Yes, it sold. There are two kinds of big-selling albums though. The kind that sell a few million and people bump and the kind that sell and people use as drink coasters. Fact was Snoop might have said what he said when the album was coming out but everyone says that shit when albums are fresh on their plate. People always think their newest album is their best one. If they didn't, they wouldn't put new albums out. The history books are generally more honest. "Da Game" is not a classic album. It might be underrated to some, depending on your taste, but it didn't resonate with the majority of Snoop's fanbase when it was released. People didn't like No Limit Snoop. They wanted some West Coast shit. Hence why he came back with a lot of the usual suspects on his next one. The biggest thing people wanted was for him to fuck with Dre again and he did. It's the same thing with "Dr. Dre Presents... The Aftermath". It went platinum but is considered a dud because people that bought it didn't feel it.

c...cl....cla....NO

Itīs Was A Good Album.Not A Classic.Some Tracks Were Fillers But It Had Some Good Tracks On It Too.

[Mietek23]

Dogz Get Lonely Too and C U When I Get There was the best cuts from this album for me... I don't feel 'Still A G Thang' at all as well as the rest of this album - def the worst Snoop album along R&G

[funkstylz]

movies def. one of my favs.

[Jimmy H.]

I don't think it's his worst. The last few (minus Ego Trippin which I actually think is one of his best in years) have been way worse. At the time it came out, I can see why it got hated on. It was a step down for Snoop but in hindisght, it's not nearly as bad as its reputation suggests.

lay low >>>>>>>>>>>>>>Da Game Is To Be Sold

[Slikk_J]

Best song is Hoes, money and clout. Great Soopa production, Daz with the scratches! Great DPG feel track from back in the days. Nice bouncy beat. Kind of a 'Soopafly - This type of flow or Westurn Union - Get ahh bar type feel bouncy track.

Snoop world had a great beat, but Master P wrecks the song as usual....thats the problem with the overall album. No limit artists...

and took me a while to notice, I guess when I grew up a bit (instead of early teen) I think the prodcution and hook/background vocals, make the ultimate RnB smooth track and D.O.Gs get lonely too. (RnB as in soulful RnB, not mainstream today RnB).

[F-cisco]

Still a G Thang, Woof, and Game Of Life are the best tracks.

[Sosna]

it's a classic ?! damm..

there R a few good tracks, like "Snoop World", "Gin & Juice II", "Show Me Love" or "Hoes, Money & Clout", but whole album? nothin' special
