SNOOP DOGG - MISSIONARY (Official Discussion)

[gfunk2024]

for those that say they like Gorgeous but wish it was longer...I get it, I get it. I've said that about songs before, but...

Quality over Quantity. Would you rather have a song that is longer but not as good? Not me.

Like someone else said, Next Episode isn't that long of a song.

Of course I would rather have a good song than a long song, but does it have to be either/or? Warren G would've sounded great over this on a third verse.

For those wishing it was a fake tracklist -

Snoop Dogg & Dr. Dre Tap Eminem, 50 Cent & More For 'Missionary' Tracklist

Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre‘s upcoming album Missionary wil boast appearances from Eminem, 50 Cent and a host other big names.

The tracklist for the eagerly anticipated project surfaced on Thursday (October 31) via its pre-release listing on Apple Music.

It’s revealed that Missionary clocks in at 15 songs and features guest spots from longtime collaborators Em and 50, as well as Method Man, Jelly Roll, Sting, Tom Petty, Jhené Aiko and BJ The Chicago Kid.

The diverse supporting cast also includes lesser-known names such as DMV lyricist K.A.A.N., Chicago rapper/songwriter Fat Money (who contributed to Kanye West‘s Donda 2 and Vultures 1) and singer Cocoa Sarai.

Eminem and 50 Cent feature on a song called “Gunz N Smoke,” marking the first time that Snoop, Dre, Em and 50 have collaborated on the same track, while Jelly Roll and Tom Petty guest on “Last Dance with Mary Jane,” an intriguing title for a prolific weed smoker like Snoop.

Jhené Aiko lends her sultry voice to “Gorgeous,” which will be released on Friday (November 1) as the lead single. The album itself arrives on December 13 via Death Row, Aftermath and Interscope.

In addition to the tracklist, the cover art for Missionary has also been revealed and depicts a black and gold condom wrapper that promises “aural pleasure.”

Check out the artwork and tracklist below.

Serving as the belated 30th anniversary sequel to Snoop Dogg’s 1993 album Doggystyle, Missionary is produced entirely by Dr. Dre and marks the pair’s first full-length collaboration since Snoop’s aforementioned debut.

The release date was announced earlier this week, accompanied by a hilarious trailer in which two Mormons knock on the door of a woman’s house, only to get the shock of their lives when she answers the door wearing sexy lingerie.

“What the fuck? Your ad said you were dedicated to missionary work!” she barks, clearly expecting something different to religious enlightenment.

Snoop and Dre have both set the bar high for Missionary, with Tha Doggfather calling it “masterful” in an interview earlier this year.

“When you hear what we have and how he got me rapping, it’s like a grown Snoop Dogg,” he said on former NBA players Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson’s All the Smoke podcast.

“It’s the way he selects his bars, it’s the way he uses his voice. [Dr. Dre] uses me like a fucking robot and I love it because I love to be produced. I love to be challenged.”

Dre echoed this sentiment in a chat with Entertainment Tonight in August, putting Missionary up there with some of his best work.

“This one’s gonna show a different level of maturity with [Snoop’s] lyrics and with my music. I feel like this is some of the best music I’ve done in my career,” he declared. “I’m not playing.

“The musicians I’m working with right now and some of the writers in the studio that are helping us… Snoop is really excited about this and so am I. I think people are gonna really enjoy this.”

Snoop Dogg has also teased a 2025 tour in support of Missionary, although nothing has been confirmed as of writing.

Snoops punched in flow was fine but he delivered two lyrical crummy verses, the chick's hook lyrics even worse -

[Chorus: Jhené Aiko]
I feel so fuckin' gorgeous
Don't this shit look gorgeous?
Into the sky, stars in your eyes
This person full of love (Yeah, baby, come on)
We can be anything, this is everything
We do the hardest things, six in the morning
Yeah, bitch, this' the feeling

[Verse 1: Snoop Dogg]

Last time I checked
I was the plug to your plug, I'm the fuckin' connect
What you expect? Negotiate, never settle for less
I never lose, always winnin' when I shuffle a deck
Droppin' these jewels, where I'm from you better treasure your checks
You know the rules, plus one, she always come with a guess
She in the pool, best believe, I plan on makin' her wet
Give her the blues, back up in this bitch and get in my raps
Show you how to do it properly when you on my property
I'm a hot commodity, boy, walk Monopoly
A nigga safe, ran out of space, I'm a odyssey
Honestly, I'm that motherfucker that you gotta see

[Chorus: Jhené Aiko]
I feel so fuckin' gorgeous
Don't this shit look gorgeous?
Into the sky, stars in your eyes
This person full of love (Yeah, baby, come on)
We can be anything, this is everything
We do the hardest things, six in the morning
Yeah, bitch, this' the feeling

[Verse 2: Snoop Dogg]

Now, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Now, that's a lot of ass in the passenger seat
Droppin' low, low, low, low
Yeah, about to hit a switch in this bitch
Watch the six-fold roll
I deal with the cons and the pros
I mix crip shit with the highs and the lows
Picture this bitch for drawing the bankroll
It's just some dog food for the soulless
Criminal psychology, this shit just a part of me
Industrial robbery, a product of '93, yeah
Follow me, follow me, I'm where the dollars be
My stock up, nigga, no return on this policy

[Chorus: Jhené Aiko]
I feel so fuckin' gorgeous
Don't this shit look gorgeous?
Into the sky, stars in your eyes
This person full of love (Yeah, baby, come on)
We can be anything, this is everything
We do the hardest things, six in the morning
Yeah, bitch, this' the feeling

If Gorgeous were on the Compton soundtracc it would have been a top-3 song on there.

Haha...that's how wack 'Compton' was for Dre's standards.

[.:Hercy Buggz:.]

Y'all don't know Jhene Aiko???

[The Predator]

We do now.

Not blaming her for the lousy hook, she sang what they told her to.

[Str-8 Gone]

Wussup - I'm a new booty.

Figured I'd make my first post on the Snoop and Dr. Dre tip.

Hoping these foos saved a little funk for the new album. The song is coo but I need that FUNK. When Dre gets busy, he brings the heat.

[Marco]

This cover basically destroyed 80% of my anticipation for the album.
The "Doggystyle" cover was iconic, this one seems way too lazy and "on the nose".

Preferred a cartoon like Doggystyle tbh.

Yes, I know!!! There's are other cartoonists who could do the art.

This and everything else so far.
This is them being 'mature'.
Who the fuck wants to look at a rubber packet on a cover, maybe Jimmy got an idea of selling them too.

They were better of putting a really hot chick on it, in a missionary position with her legs spread.

Leave the past in the past!

It's not a matter of the past, bro. The position that I posed is only my opinion that this cover is ridiculous. Regardless of whether I'm comparing it to Dogyystyle or any other Snoop album before this.
