So he came with that weak DJ Pooh shit.

Most of the beats that DJ Pooh made on "Tha Doggfather" are GREAT. Snoop Dogg should work with him more.

Yeah Pooh and Daz did they thing on that album. Sam Sneed too.

Why would he use Doggystyle leftover tracks for "Doggfather"? He was recording a new album. Generally that means recording new tracks and not just recycling old ones that didn't make the last album.

i remember hearing that Snoop took alotta the original tracks off Tha Doggfather bcuz he wasn't happy with DeathRow at the time.  He kept alot of those Doggfather sessions to himself.  There's probably a shit load of Doggfather reels but very few Doggystyle reels left.


Yeah that's true to a certain extent. He pretty much sabotaged his own album.

Yes considering the timing and No considering the lasting effect.  i liked it when i first heard it but i was like 11/12 then so i liked Snoop regardless.

If he really wanted to stay on top of the rap game for a while longer he would of.  He had lost some of his fire and hunger, and he lost the greatest producer in history.  He was feeling shook after beating his murder case.  So I think to still come with what the public was demanding and meet the expectations of the time, his only hope was to dip into their old stash and let the high last a little bit longer.  2pac's Mackevelli album had just came out a week earlier, so he had to come with some real shit to keep the Death Row buzz going and Dogg fell off (although still one of the best it was way below expectations) and didn't recover till he stopped being stubborn and went back to Dre for Topp Dogg album.

Actually if he's already digging into his old music for his second album, I'd say he's more or less forefiting at that point. People shit on Doggfather WAY too fucking much! Even with left-over Dre tracks sprinkled in there, it would not have changed a thing. Doggystyle was one of those albums that very few artists ever get in their career and it set the bar high for everything that would come after. The fact was the enviroment was different by the time, Doggfather came out. More or less, all of the people who were his mentors and influences prior to that were gone. This was Snoop doing it on his own. He's better to just tell his story in 1996 as best as he can than try to throw together a fucking table scrap project from his early years. And Doggfather was good for what it was. The public wanted the next Dre-Snoop project but giving them old material would have backfired just the same.

that's dope!
my guess would L.T. Hutton produced that. That's just my guess from the recent tracks that have been released.
