I was like meh after first listen but but... This shit gets better and bumps in the car.

This project will strictly be about funk & bumping, content wise, it won't be much.

As long as it bumps and it's funky, I'll be glad.

Summed up my thoughts.
I've been bumping this more and more.
The downside is that you really can't make out what snoop is saying clearly in his vocal delivery/effect, but the vocal is hypnotically catchy.

Damn, I don't know about the song but I liked the video. The people that make the opening credits to the Bond movies are going to be pissed when they see it because they didn't think of it.

Charlie Wilson sounds so great on Snoop records, even this one.

i played this a load yesterday and the whole thing grew on me a lot, the vocal part especially. i think i prefer it overall to peaches n cream, i just can't get into the verses on that one. but both tracks have great hooks and the instrumentals are 8) to the fullest. i know some of you were really feeling the 7 days thing, but the production was so cheap & barebones compared to these lavish grooves it's an instant win for 'Bush'. i liked it and all but i much prefer slick production when it's as funky as this...

Yeah the video is excellently executed, simple concept but creatively done imo.

I agree with this.
I enjoyed the 7 days of funk project but as you say the production did seem a little generic and lacked that quality mixing and definition and came off feeling cold/lacking that soul
The production on this Bush project so far is simple, very funky, warm and organic and sonically more superior.
In the same way the Still D.R.E was a very basic drum beat beat, keys and bassline, but sonically crisp & superior that it filled the empty space.

just never felt the Pharel stuff... not that it doesn't sound good, but it lacks that realness and replay value.  Ain't no way I am bumpin a Pharel track in my headphones on my own time

Snoop did some of his best work in the past 10-15 years with Pharell IMO...not quite sure about the new stuff yet but I'll give it a chance

but the barebone shit is what funk is made of, the slickness gives it more of a pop sound

to me this shit just sounds like theyre trying too hard to basically imitate another type of music. i thought the same about the reggae album. it almost seems like a joke

The blood gang embraces Tupac as a member even if YOU dont.

'Snoop Dogg's new album BUSH will be available May 12 and is entirely produced by multiple Grammy award winner Pharrell Williams, who also appears in the new video.  The album is a creative partnership between Doggystyle Records, I Am OTHER and Columbia Records.

The adventurous new video for "So Many Pros," was helmed by noted director Francois Rousselet who has worked with Kanye West and Jack White, among others, and is produced by DIVISION Paris.  Rousselet had a clear vision for the music video, which features Snoop transformed via multiple film posters into a larger-than-life presence, donning various leading-man guises of Hollywood's highly influential Blaxploitation movie genre. "I wanted to depict Snoop Dogg as a black James Bond, and film him in scenes inspired by the Blaxploitation era," stated Rousselet.  "The video is a total homage to this period, which was one of the richest in terms of graphic design.  Only Snoop Dogg could embody such great characters through a series of posters that depict and pay tribute to one of the most iconic chapters of Hollywood history."  Felicia 'Snoop' Pearson from HBO's classic crime drama The Wire also appears in the music video.
 
Other collaborators contributing to the legendary musician's Columbia Records debut album include Charlie Wilson, Kendrick Lamar, Rick Ross, Stevie Wonder, and T.I.'

ugh, Rick Ross. i was thinking of buying this too...
