How much more pop can Snoop get?
« on: September 05, 2010, 06:04:56 AM »
Have you all heard Snoop's latest effort?



I ain't hatin', I actually think that's a cool record and I'm sure it's gonna do well in Europe. But do y'all remember how Snoop was going on about how he didn't listen to Eminem "'cos he was a gangsta" a couple of years back in that dubcc interview? How gangsta was California Gurls, Snoop? How gangsta is this Robyn track Snoop?

Unlike the Katy Perry record, Snoop actually does some work on this one, spitting several verses, being on the hook and doing adlibs all over the place.

The man is almost 40 years old. Why do people still act like Snoop stop maturing at 18 years old. I don't even bump Snoop's new music because it's not my cup of tea, but I understand what he's doing.

Why is he gonna make some "gangsta" tracks to appeal to his European wigger followers (a small minority of his total fan base) when he can make something more mainstream that millions of people all ages can bump AND boost his album sales?

that's because sales numbers are decreasing anyway. A gangsta record by Snoop wouldn't do better numbers I believe. Plus most ppl on here are downloading but want artists to do more "westcoast" music to increase sales. like wtf...

That's all around the board, buddy. Catering to a niche crowd like individuals stuck in 1994 is guaranteed to lower whatever album sales he's still getting.

for a guy who makes appearances on TV shows and at public events all the time, dude needs atleast platinum in the first week (unless the album gets 0 promotion such as "The lost sessions" ofcourse...which was the best Snoop release since 1996 BTW)

Ego Trippin went gold

Malice has not hit gold yet

SNOOP'S LAST MULTI PLATINUM ALBUM WAS "DA GAME IS TO BE SOLD..." IN 1998  :o

According to Wiki this is true.  Also, somebody has to find this ha :
"Snoop Dogg has ventured into singing for Bollywood with his first ever rap for an Indian movie Singh Is Kinng; the title of the song is also "Singh is Kinng". The album featuring the song was released on June 8, 2008 on Junglee Music Records."

sure, but it's not like autotune or a pop feature will boost his sales much
