the rollout has nothing to do with snoop

m80 is the one behind the marketing strategy
The project + Kurupt being clear minded is the Snoop effect.

this album was done independent of snoop

where snoop comes in is allowing kurupt to release it on death row

similar to what he did for dpg and eastsidaz

We can hate on Snoop, but none of this happens without him.


Definitely!

From Battlecat and Kurupts mouth, the project was Snoop's idea to make it happen.

Deathrow A & R (Fuzzy) have been taking them on Promo run for weeks, from radios to podcast and shows (Blue Note, Big Boy's Cali Love, Snoop's Long Beach Amphitheater), Deathrow been putting out decent visuals for the project by Guap Production.

Been a good rollout by Deathrow, credit where it's due.

I highly doubt these DPG, Eastsidaz, or Kurupt albums happen without Snoop's influence. In fact, I'm pretty sure both Kurupt and Daz admitted WAWG happened when Snoop made the call. Tray Deee said something similar when the EP dropped. Most of these guys rely on his star power + guidance to get things cracking.

It's just the truth. Snoop can be a snake, I'm sure, but all these cats wait for his guidance to do anything of substance musically.

Seemed to me he loved "listening" because he did a better interview than Vlad and Art did

Right. We can pretend Snoop has nothing to do with this, but that's flat-out not true.
