Snoop Dogg Signs With Neptunes

[Z the laidback Virus]

I have mixed feelings about this.

[T-Dogg]

This thing can go either way, major hit or major flop. The talk about bringing back the Chronic-era Snoop sounds really good, but we'll see how that turns out. I'm hoping for the best though. Still, at the same time I gotta wonder if the LP will be full of pop cuts like Beautiful and collabos with Britney or Justin Timberlake or some shit. The Neptunes do both good Hip-Hop tracks (Tha Liks' Best U Can, Busta Rhymes' As I Come Back, some of Jigga's tracks) and straight poppy pop pop shit.

Fredwreck, Warren G, DJ Quik, Battlecat and of course Dre would be safe choices for him. Couldn't go wrong with them. Soopafly would probably be good too. Of course there's no obstacle for having them on the LP, but since he's releasing through the Neptunes it wouldn't be a surprise if they did most of the production. I'd prefer the other dudes though.

We'll see what happens. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Why can't this fool just drop all that non-sense and link up with some real life W/S producers like Bosko or Battlecat?

[I`m Wayne Brady bitch!]

Becouse Battlecat and Bosko got boring beats 50 % of the time , hate on me !

[eNgIeS]

If he brings back chronic era snoop i will mark out for real

& i didnt mind Snoop on the neptunes tracks at all, even Palace to the chuuch

I reckon its a good move by snoop & hopefully it isnt too much rnb or soft stuff, get a few club gangers & g-funks & its crackin

[MOB]

how come he expects to bring the west back signing with these faggots?
The neptunes are good but can't do westcoast beats for shit
and lol at the comment about bringing snoop to his death row era

[CRAFTY]

He sounds best over west coast beats, and I'd rather him do work with Battlecat and Fred Wreck.

Don't see how anyone could help Snoop (not even Dre) bring back The Chronic Days.  That was then.. this is now.  Can't bring something that perfect back.  There were too many factors.  I'm going to take that claim as nothing but hype.  Can they do something special together?  Yea.. I'm almost sure that something big will come from them linking up.  Change is good.. lets just hope for the best but claiming Chronic day's is just stupid.

[smerlus]

lol people must have lost their memory...every snoop cd that comes out people say it's close to doggystyle....and it's not like the neptunes are gonna be like "we're gonna try and get snoop back to "the game is to be told" era"

so enjoy the hype while it lasts, i'm just preparing myself for reality...another garbage snoop cd that i won't buy

[i love men who take pictures with their booty's out]

good 4 snoop.. bad 4 him when his contract with them r up..kuz soon as its up..he will bitch in cry again like he did when he was released from,

deathrow
no limit
hell he even bitched and cried after his 2nd album on his label

every 2 albums the bitch in snoop comes out..he's a spoiled brat..if he aint havin his way..he will cry

if he wanna go back to his chronic days.. we know dre aint gone invest his attention span..its 3 west coast producers that can accomplish this..

quik,battlecat, and og warren g..let them 3 motherfuckers do it..i guarantee dre gone wanna executive produce that album

and the tunes sayin they can bring him back to those days is a "opinonated faux pas"lol

u need to do the whole album in california
he's needs kurupt in his corner
bring eazy e back from the dead

those r the 3 key things he need to go back to those days...

Ya, the more i think about it, this IS a good move for Snoop.  As much as I like Jely Roll, Battlecat, Soopafly, etc,  he almost never comes tight cuz the tracks are too laidback.  Same with Hi-tek, as much as i like Hi-tek's other work.  Te Neptunes arent my favourite producers, but they are more versatile than most people think and they DO take music seriously as a craft.  I hope they can put together a real nice album for SNoop


as for Quik, Battlecat, and Warren doing the album, i dont think so.  Quik may be one of the best ever, but his tracks with SNoop were surprisingly quite average, although i am sure Quik could cook up somteing nice.  Snoop has worked with Battlecat, and tracks like Ballin and Stacey Adams were made, which is not the SNoop most people want.  AS for Warren, i think he could add a couple dope tracks, but i doubt we will ever see that.  ANd Dre executive producing an album not on his label?  doubtful

[KING VerbalAssaulta]

snoop makes pop music anymore... and i see they're are a lot of pop fans here ....snoop would suck a dic to sell a few extra records....paid da cost is one of the worst rap albums ever...and i'll bet this could top it

[southbound]

everybody keeps talking about the neptunes in this deal. i mean i dont like them either but..  what about jimmy iovine? love him or hate him this fucker knows good music and he always has the last say on interscope and you know if he dont like the album it aint coming out. i mean he pushed eminem back so that says sumthin.so when you consider jimmy involved ya know hes gonna get dre to do some shit on this album also. i think this may be a plus just cause the interscope factor but i guess time will tell

[Slick Talk]

Damn it seems like snoop is always a year late.  
The Neptunes are fallin off.  correction have fallin off!!!!!
he went to No Limit after they fell off!!!  The only way I see this working is if he gets outside producers.  Since I know how to find some good out of every situation I will write this.  The Neptunes do push him while he's in the booth.  He does not sound good on Battlecat and fred wreck beats because they let him do what he wants in the booth.  the Neptunes actually produce the song and tell him "yo snoop try it like this"  battlecat, and warren g may have good beats but they dont produce snoop songs well.  the Neptunes know how to produce well.  I dont think they will let him go in the booth and drop some lazy shit.

Ohh I would also like to Welcome my self to the board.

I wonder if P Diddy is still gonna get down on this project. I remember Snoop talkin bout he wasn't gonna have guest apperances on his next album, hopefully he'll stick to it. If the Neptunes can make Snoop sound like he did on 2001 then I'll be more than happy. Fingers crossed he gets off the pimp shit.
