"Smokefest" was a compilation, still official though, but not an "album".

it's not really tho, that's just what the people called it .. snoop released it himself and it was all new music of his at the time. the confusion is because snoop released it without label support and sold copies exclusively at shows he was doin. so now it's a "compilation", but if death row put it out then it woulda been an "album".. bullshit

Most of those songs were recorded while Snoop was still on Death Row. I'm not sayin' it's not official, of course it's official since Snoop himself put it out, but i consider it to be a compilation. Just like "Dead Man Walkin" is a compilation of leftover songs that were not meant just for one album or Nas' "The Lost Tapes" or Ice Cube's "Bootlegs & B-Sides". Those releases are not structured like albums are, if you know what i mean? It's just a bunch of songs.

a lot of albums are structured like this though .. like slim shady lp was mostly songs from when before he joined aftermath .. is that a compilation? to me, any time an artist releases their own album full of songs they haven't previously released, unless they give it a special name like "unreleased hits" then it's an official album .. that's what snoop billed it as.
Okka:
That's your opinion, ain't nothin' wrong with that. Here's how Nas feels about "The Lost Tapes".
"I mean it’s a group of songs, so it’s album, but also it’s not really my album. It’s just a bunch of songs. It’s an album in its own right like some lost artists from the 80s or 70s; some lost artists songs. Not putting myself up there, but if you found a Marvin Gaye ten/twelve songs he never released, it’s not a Marvin album but it’s Marvin Music. So I agree, it’s not an album by me."
