SNOOP DOGG - IZ IT A CRIME? (Official Discussion)

[doggfather]

Don't think there will be one tbh. He didn't drop any hard copies for BODR either, which he also dropped independently (unlike Missionary which was distributed through Interscope)

Damn! actually doubled down and released the worst song on the album with a high budget vid. I guess this is what young people like. I’d rather have  a vid for West Up

I like the video, it fits the song and Akerm is dope too.

Snoop Dogg’s Iz It a Crime? moves like a Sunday drive—unhurried, slightly indulgent, and full of detours that make sense only if you’re already along for the ride. Across 18 tracks, he leans into warmth and groove, working with longtime collaborators like Battlecat, Soopafly, and Nottz to build a sound that sticks close to his comfort zone: mellow funk, soft-edged G-funk, and R&B with a glossy finish. There’s no urgency here—just a well-oiled veteran rapping like he’s on the porch with a drink in hand.

The strongest stretch comes early. The title track, “Joy,” “Unsing Heroes,” and “Sophisticated Crippin’,” hit a clean rhythm: low-end bounce, relaxed hooks, and Snoop in full control of his voice. But the middle sinks into autopilot. Songs like “Can’t Get Enough, ” “Spot,” and “My Friend” drift without direction, padded with predictable melodies and verses that sound more like casual freestyles than finished thoughts.



Even so, there’s charm in how loosely the album is put together. It doesn’t chase trends or force relevance—it just floats. At its best, Iz It a Crime? feels like Snoop making music because he wants to, not because he has to. At its worst, it’s background noise. Either way, it’s unmistakably him.

I like the 80's influence, but understand why people my dislike the track. I think it could be remixed and maybe change the hook to sound a bit more organic/natural (just think of the Mayer Hawthorne remix of Gangsta Luv from 'Malic in Wonderland)

This album bangs. Better than the Dre album maybe, which is funny. Keep it moving, can’t wait, joy, shut yo bitch ass up are my favs

If y'all really think this album is better than Missionary, y'all need your ears bleached out, then sold and replaced with new ears. Y'all should be ashamed of yourselves.
