Haven't really enjoyed a Snoop-album since Blue Carpet Treatment.. sure, Ego Trippin, Malice N Wonderland & Doggumentary had it's bangers, but I miss the time when you could play a Snoop-album front to back..
BCT is 10 years ago, so would be about time. 8)
I thought Blue Carpet Treatment had more filler than Doggumentary.
and here im seeing you all wanting a doggy style type album 8)

And like everyone know, that's impossible. At least, a g rap album haha. I don't expect DoggyStyle or Tha Last Meal but when we listen to what Kendrick Lamar or Anderson Paak can release this days, I think Snoop could record similar things, I mean, some interesting things.

Short review?
Are people really into Nipsey Hustle???? In my opinion, from what I have heard of him thus far...he's not at all good ha. I hate to be a hater but so many terrible emcees are getting shine these days and I don't get it....I can be swayed with a couple impressive tracks I'm sure...Nipsey has a great catalogue of.music. your probably expecting something you wont get in this day and age.

I thought Blue Carpet Treatment had more filler than Doggumentary.
Yeah I agree. BTC is marginally better overall but there's loads of filler on it
Snoop is done anyway. Not expecting much tbh
personally, i'd like to see him do a whole album with Battlecat like the one he did with Dam Funk...
haven't heard the funk one either.

any1 heard the album he did wit his kids? i presume thatd rank at the bottom, but never felt compelled 2 peep that 1
smokefest is a real solo that snoop put out when he was on tour, i believe, just didnt distribute it nationally.......dead man walkin was a real solo, as well, just not put out by snoop.

u sure?!
DMW tracks also on his deat row greatest hits album. and IMO snoop aint consider as a snoop album. ;)
dunno bout smokefest, but that looks compilation to me too. JUST to me. ;)
ok. i know both album, got dmw on cd, but like i said always tought its a comp. but that just what i tought.
look that wiki site you linked.
Snoop Dogg compilation chronology under the cover. ;) ;D
"A compilation is generally an album comprised of songs by different artists "
not JUST.
best ofs are comps too. ;)

Yeah, maybe I will have to go back and check out Blue Carpet Treatment, because I think it had a lot of Dre production and DOC was even around...
but.. like what was said above I miss having a Snoop album you could bang from front to back. The Last Meal was the last Snoop album I could bump from front to back. Unless you count albums like the Wide Awake Haven't You Heard LBC Crew album, I thought was solid beggining to end. Really enjoyed that release, and if they did nothing else, at least Wide Awake did that.
"Dead Man Walkin" is a compilation of old Snoop Dogg songs. I wouldn't call it a solo.

When it's previously unreleased material, it's generally not referred to as a compilation.. It's an unofficial solo put out by suge.
Sure, you can call it a "solo", but it's a compilation (...)

Sure, you can call it a "solo", but it's a compilation of unreleased songs that were recorded for different projects that somebody decided to put together and release.
Yeah, i feel you, but some of the songs on "Dead Man Walkin" were supposed to be on "Tha Doggfather". "Hit Rocks" was supposed to be on the LBC Crew album. "Head Doctor" was a Swoop G song. "C-Walkin" was remade by Big Hutch. "Midnight Love" was supposed to be on that EP that you're talkin' about, but it didn't end up on "Dead Man Walkin" though.

Plus, Snoop Dogg basically released independently his "SmokeFest" compilation which was previously an shelved Death Row project, just like "Doggumentary" EP. Some of the previously unreleased tracks which appeared in "Dead Man Wakin" (Snoop Doggy Dogg As His Best) and the Death Row Greatest Hits came from this era. Everybody can say, now, that Death Row was still dead but "Until The End Of Time", "Dead Man Walkin", "Snoop Doggy Dogg Greatest Hits" or "Tha Dogg Pound 2002" were quality compilations released by Death Row, still alvi thanks to his vault. But yeah, just like compilations.
I think Tha Last Meal was his 2nd best...couldve been a classic album if the tracks that were left off were included

And relapse was a compilation of tracks intended for detox .. It doesn't make it any less of a solo album.

This ones alright, was fuckin wit the jus blaze snippet more
The Just Blaze track that he previewed in the IG video just might be the best Snoop track I've heard in ten years. For whoever said he needs to go gangster on that one - don't worry, he does. It's basically a nostalgia trip for fans of vintage Snoop - a lot of nods to his classic lyrics ("it's still 187 if you bitch n****s need that"; "creeping through the fog," etc.) but delivered with an energy that's been missing from his recent material. He truly sounds reinvigorated on this track. Rest of the album is shaping up nicely too - even the Swizz collaborations pleasantly surprised me, considering I've never imagined their styles meshing on paper.You've heard the album?

Snoop was on jimmy kimmel and the album is called Cool-Aid. Cover is a joe cool art: doggystyle type cover, says it's a Gangsta Rap and first single is Fireworks and is okay, doesn't sound like the just blaze, timbaland, nottz, swizz beats shit we been hearing but we'll see...
New song and video feat Wiz

This don't sound like gangsta rap as snoop claims.
it would be interesting to hear snoops project overseen by east coast producer like just blaze, i think his last good album was ego trippin cuz it was mixed by dj quik and terrace martin
yeah it was cool but i prefer dam-funks music without any vocalsit would be interesting to hear snoops project overseen by east coast producer like just blaze, i think his last good album was ego trippin cuz it was mixed by dj quik and terrace martin
7 dayz of funk was the last good snoop album
anything dam funk does is good.....cuzznz was underrated as well

No Dre or Quik is disappointing, but nice to see Daz and fingazz
this album will bang..(according with the snippets)
Swizz Beats sent these beats to Snoop...back in 2011 (after, this year(2016)..Snoop flew to NY to finish those tracks)
Probably Watch The Throne leftovers...

You talk about instagram snippets or there is a place to listen to "proper" snippets?
Is it just me who finds it a bit sad or at least disappointing that on an album with 20 tracks and that's supposed to be a return to his old style (for better or worse), Snoop did not bother to feature a single DPGC on here? I have mixed feelings about this. One, perhaps dragging along your nowhere-going buddies (if they still are that) for the ride is not the best policy. Certainly, rappers are more or less expected to bring their 'weed carriers' even though that often adds little to the proceedings. However, if Snoop claims to be 'King of the Westcoast' and the centre of DPG, certainly he should help and showcase his musical family as he has generally done in the past? That being said: say what you will about his integrity but Snoop has always been someone to move forward, change, adapt and take risks while his fellow DPGC are pretty muck stuck in the past in terms of musical direction, much like the westcoast in general. From that perspective, I could see why Snoop feels there is little to gain from continuing to push 'friends from music past' with no real clout in hiphop. He's certainly given them enough chances already and the nostalgia of his listeners should not factor in to his decisions. I certainly hope that Snoop's decision to at least expand musically and altogether put in more of an effort shows up here too. (An example of that effort would be his verse on Kokane's last album, which was nearly up there with 'One Shot, One Kill' in terms of energy and left me very impressed. If he's willing to show that much hunger on a Kokane album (face it, how many casual or even dedicated listeners to hiphop are going to hear that?), I'd say that bodes well for his edge on here. Let's hope so, anyway.

I get what your point is and it surely looks like he doesn't care about DPG looking at this track list. But to be honest, he is doing more music with the DPG camp lately than ever. Just look at all the "That's That Work" mixtapes and other projects, which feature his old camp as well as many young cats. His solo albums always are more experimental and I see why he's doing his own thing with it. Actually Daz and Kurupt left me underwhelmed with their features on "7 Day of Funk", I'd rather wanted Snoop to do their verses as they didn't get into the right vibe on their tracks.
I didn't hear that Kokane track yet, but will do after your comment. Snoop seems to be hungry right now, dropping all those fire and energetic verses lately. Seems like his mind set is back to showcase his rapping skill instead of having a good time while making music.

Point Seen Money Gone sounds much better in CDQnot feeling this one...not a fan of the snoop flow where he just rhymes word after word, after word, after word...sounds like hes just talking words and not rapping. Not sure when or why he started rapping this way
CDQ is out
Damn they already got the whole thing up on YouTube .. Dre would never let that happen

Was that "Back to Doggystyle" (or whatever it was called) album scrapped in place of this? There was a Lil Ghetto Boy song and another single/video out?
He just dropped "Coolaid Man" on iTunes....nice flow on that one, solid track
Its simple, with no guidance, he will sound lazy but when someone like Just blaze or dre is behind him, he sounds amazingYeah for sure...and if only he made albums 13-15 tracks he could have a couple more classics and his catalog would look much better
I guess he will add some more before the release
I guess he will add some more before the release
There'z about 5 tracks on youtube: Got Those (Sounds like Drake's 0 To 100), Two Or More (like Bush leftover), Double Tap, Point Seen Money Gone & Super Crip

Why another thread for this album? there's alreayd 2...
I'll rate each track out of 5 (my opinion and how I feel each track)
Legend - 3.5 (sound way better than than the live version)
Ten Toes Down - 4 (Proper Westcoast banger! The beat got your head bobbing from the jump and Snoop deliver a lovely flow to it, one of my favourites)
Don't stop feat Too Short - 4 (If you've heard the snippet you know what to expect, one of the best Short and Dogg collaboration)
Super Crip - 4.5 (A really good effort, it's a mix of different Snoop style and Just Blaze was on point with the beat )
Coolaid Man - 4.5 (This is my personal favourite, I just can't get enough of this track! The tittle track embodied what the Album tittle is about, Cool & Laid Back, The beat is so chilled and Snoop managed to ride it the same way while spitting about his style and how cool the dogg is)
See em up feat Swizz Beat - 3.5 (Beat is alright, Swizz managed to deliver a Westcoast sounding beat but nothing special, Snoop flow on point and made the song)
Point Seen Money Gone - 3.5 (Good track but not really my thing, kind of track that can do well on the radio, flow and chorus are decent but I can't stand the extra autotune at the end, unnecessary in my opinion)
Oh Na Na feat Wiz - 3 (Cool track with that old school vibe, nothing special, I'm not big on Snoop & Wiz collaboration)
My Carz - 2.5 /5 (Average track, too vain and basic, not for me)
Two or More - 3.5 (A typical Snoop ol school funk influenced track, produced by Snoop himself, good track to groove to)
Affiliated feat Trick Trick - 3.5 (decent track, I likee the Juvenile style Snoop started with and Trick did his thing, alright track)
Feel About Snoop - 3 (Not for me but I suspect some people will like it , just not feeling it but well produced)
Light Up feat Swizz Beat - 2 (Have no idea why this track is on there, Snoop weakest flow of the album, Swizz part is decent but just doesn't fit the vibe of the album)
Side Piece - 3 (I kind of like this for what it is, laid back and Snoop flow nicely on this)
Kush Up feat Wiz - 3 (Beat and flow not bad, just not for me again, I don't think Wiz and Dogg have that natural chemistry, would've prefer this if it's a solo Snoop track or solo Wiz track)
Double Tap - 3 (Another radio friendly track, the content, beat and chorus scream out - please play me on the radio nonstop!)
Got Those - 3.5 (This is the kind of radio friendly attempt I like, Snoop flow is pretty good on this.
I guess I'm just a sucker for Snoop + Timbo collaboration)
Let the beat drop feat Swizz - 2.5 (Average! 2 out of the 3 Swizz Beat tracks are just average and not for Snoop)
What if feat Sugar Free - 3.5 (No need to say much on this, Snoop & Sugar Free did their thang as usual)
Revolution feat October King - 4 (Just Blaze did it again! Managed to bring out the best in Snoop.)
I'll rate each track out of 5 (my opinion and how I feel each track)
Legend - 3.5 (sound way better than than the live version)
Ten Toes Down - 4 (Proper Westcoast banger! The beat got your head bobbing from the jump and Snoop deliver a lovely flow to it, one of my favourites)
Don't stop feat Too Short - 4 (If you've heard the snippet you know what to expect, one of the best Short and Dogg collaboration)

So the overall score is 3,5 out of 5 for this album? Thats what the mathemathics say about your rates. I hear ya! But I would rather put it overall 4/5. Best since Last Meal!

doggumentary was better,
I gave it two full listens and it's a cool album, I didn't find anything to be terrible but there were a few average tracks that could have been cut/replaced
I would say Doggumentary had more highlights but this album flows better as a whole

"And just coincidentally, some of the stuff that I’ve been working on lately just kind of felt like an updated version of that old Death Row sound, kind of an updated G-Funk. I just started working on these tracks and they had a lot of those similar elements, just felt like newer versions of that feeling.” - Just Blaze
With the exception of Ten Toes Down and What If, this is pretty bad. How can you mess up an E-40/Jazze Pha collab smh. Like someone else said, the production here totally lets this project down.

really is, during the first half I was just nodding my head then once the beat switched up in the second verse I almost lost it
His albums lately have no direction. He tries to please everyone. He makes a couple tracks that sound old school, a few that are pop, a few that are trap music, a few experimental, few club tracks, few south. Before you know it, it's a whole album that nobody likes from start to finish.That was the good thing about the Snoop Lion project

Rapping was fine on 7 Dayz .. And more importantly, the album sounded like an album, not a compilation of random tracks .. Plus, the production was excellent. Haven't peeped Coolaid yet but I'm willing to bet off a hunch that it's not as good

Hahaha I'm literally laughing cuz those two tracks and super crip are all that I enjoyed off this album...first two for features and last one for production...can we face the facts that snoop just isn't dope without killer production and features? Hes a cool dude but his music is boring as a MFer...that being said suga free and 40 delievered and so did just blaze

7 Days was a cool album but most definitely put together real quick and just thrown out there as an experiment, there's nothing extraordinary about it sonically... this album is a more focused effort despite it being a few tracks too long and even though it isn't Snoop's best it's far from his worst
great summertime music if you ask me 8)

7 Dayz wasn't sonically as impressive as let's say Bush .. But it still sounded like a far more organic album, and based on the reviews on Coolaid, I'm willing to bet it's overall a better album than this 1

the "sound" itself might appeal more but as a body of work it's not really comparable
look at the reviews of Compton though too lol

you're basing what you think this album is gonna be like based off reviews here, but the Compton album got shitted on too yet you still fucked with that joint, no?
Not surprised, wasn't promoted that well
Not surprised by the paltry album sales. It's just not that good. Bush was better than this, and had a much more cohesive sound. Here, Snoop went bacc to making a hodgepodge album full of different stylez to satisfy fans who purchase individual songs they like on iTunes rather than the whole album. To that end, just about every song has clear flaws. For example, Ten Toes Down has the best beat for us Westcoast fans, but Snoop adopts Juvenile's "Ha" rhyme scheme so it sounds unoriginal, and the hook isn't that good (doesn't fit the bars). Meanwhile, Too Short sounds extraneous on Don't Stop, and Trick Trick's inclusion on Affiliated almost ruins the song.
But perhaps those are subtle complaints. Much more in your face flaws-wise is all the Swizz traccs, which are plain awful and should have never left the lab. Drop them and replace them with Dre traccs, or even Pharrell. Snoop always did this in the past -- I assume Snoop's budgets are just declining because there's a lot here that seems middle-grade musically. In contrast, Snoop used to have albums that sounded hugely expensive (e.g. Blue Carpet). It's sad, but Snoop is starting to sound truly irrelevant to the game now. It took a LONG time, and he is a legend to have lasted as long as he did, but father time has finally caught up with him. I agree with y'all that he needs to get bacc with his core bandmates and just make a whole album for his real long-time fans, but I'm sure he doesn't view himself as a washed up rapper who needs to resort to that approach, so until that happens, this is what we have to live with.
I will say, though, that I love My Carz -- really atmospheric beat with all those synths. How is J Dilla still making beats when dude died 10 years ago? Are rappers still hanging onto unused beats of his? I guess so.
Here's what I would have made the tracc list. It includes traccs I'm not in love with but could live with, and it's still long enough to constitute real full LP length:
1. "Legend"
2. "Ten Toes Down"
3. "Don't Stop" (featuring Too $hort)
4. "Super Crip"
5. "Coolaid Man"
6. "Oh Na Na" (featuring Wiz Khalifa)
7. "My Carz"
8. "Two or More"
9. "Affiliated" (featuring Trick Trick)
10. "Feel About Snoop"
11. "Double Tap" (featuring E-40 and Jazze Pha)
12. "Got Those"
13. "What If" (featuring Suga Free)
14. "Revolution" (featuring October London)
Any way you slice it, Snoop Dogg is one of hip-hop’s ultimate veterans. He is a true pioneer of contemporary rap music and has without a doubt birthed the style, flow and careers of countless MCs who have come after him. His legacy in the game can never be defamed but the second half of his career’s narrative is far from flawless. A couple flopped albums and two separate, unusual self-reinventions (Snoop Lion and Snoopzilla) have ultimately tainted his history of rap royalty. The Snoop that gave us timeless G-Funk put down the gin and juice and picked up a beanie, which was hardly well received. But now, after the reggae rebrand and the brief funk undertaking, the Doggfather is back with Coolaid, his most hip-hop album in years.
Based on the classic cartoon cover art alone, Snoop is bringing it back to the basics. The illustration, reminiscent of his 1993 debut LP cover for Doggystyle, features Snoop mixing up a concoction of equal parts “swag,” “lingo,” “hair,” “style” and, of course, “G.” Although Coolaid is Snoop’s 14th studio album, it truly feels and sounds like a follow up to 2004’s Rhythm & Gangsta: The Masterpiece.
Instead of bouncing all over the map with production that hits as often as it misses, Coolaid employs the kinetic genius of Swizz Beatz to handle a healthy chunk of production — just as R&G used The Neptunes’ innovative sonics to curate the album. High-profile producers like Just Blaze, Timbaland, J Dilla and Jazze Pha all lend beats to a couple cuts on the album but its Swizz’s sounds that stand out most.
“Let Me See Em Up” is perhaps the most raw, unfiltered track with lots of motivational ad-libs from Swizz and slick Snoop lines about “sittin’ on my throne” and “livin’ the boss life”; all of which makes for a very supercilious four minutes. He also declares his well-deserved OG status on the Cardo-produced “Affiliated,” stating that he “don’t hang in my hood but I bang in my hood, I’m affiliated.” It’s an honest line that’s refreshing to hear seeing as Snoop now spends most of his days coaching football in Beverly Hills instead of hanging in the hood.
What Snoop gets right on Coolaid is his ability to adapt to today’s modern sound without losing sight of his strengths. The Jeremih-assisted “Point Seen Money Gone” has all the makings of a modern day hit (a moody and melodic chorus, rolling trap drums, hoppy claps) but instead of copping out and hitting it with the laziest Auto-Tune-laced verses, Snoop keeps it incredibly real with his signature West Coast twang. Lines like “Mula, fetty, you not ready/I’mma get the cheese but the bread was spaghetti/Letti said he can play with them broads/Opportunistic I stay on them hoes” glide across Bongo’s lush beat just as slick as he did back in 1993.
“Feel About Snoop,” produced by Rockwilder, is the most creative and age appropriate track on the album. The track is a playful self-reflection on his career and the way people feel about him. Of course it’s cool to hear Snoop rap about smoking weed, pimping hoes and pouring up but we’ve all heard that a million times before. He has become such a G-Funk master that those gangster lyrics ooze out of him so naturally it must be hard to totally switch it up. But when he raps lines like “And there ain’t no doubt about it/Regarded as the freshest, by the way that I live/All the songs that I did, and givin’ back to the kids/ I mean I done been everywhere that you wanna go” it feels way more refined and timely.
Snoop is creeping up on 45 years old with a 23-year career under his belt and one hell of a story to tell. Coolaid would have gained top marks if he put some of the old school gangsta filler on ice and let us know what it’s like to be one of rap’s most accomplished veterans.
Given Snoop’s varied catalog, Coolaid actually stacks up fairly well against his 13 other releases. We get a strong dose of the old school Snoop we love and know while getting a little taste of the more distinguished Doggfather who we hope will eventually provide tracks filled with more wisdom and less weed. Don’t count on the latter though.
Pretty sad when Snoop just dropped a new album and his highest charting song is #23 on the rap charts from iTunes. Its a new era in hiphop and he need to focus on pleasing his real fan base instead of dropping singles like "Point Seen Money Gone"
this sales only digitals, cds cominout 13th of july right?!
I will say, though, that I love My Carz -- really atmospheric beat with all those synths. How is J Dilla still making beats when dude died 10 years ago? Are rappers still hanging onto unused beats of his? I guess so.
"Coolaid was streamed over 4.7 million times throughout his first 5 days that equals 3100 copies sold. The album sales are projected to be around 8,000 to 12,000 copies its first week."
f.ck stream...
It's a shame people don't want hard copies these days..

If snoop hits us wit an album produced by battlecat, fredwreck, jellyroll, quik, meech, dre, soopafly, daz, warren g ..... Any combination of those names and i guarantee you it'll do much better than this, from sales to reception

Probably would never happened and even it did, Snoop is washed. He should empty the vault, we'd all prefer OG Snoop. Best we could hope for is him and Warren G 213 with Nate Dogg remaining verses.

Album still gets heavy rotation, only songs I dont listen to are Legend,Point See Money Gone, Light It Up, Side Piece, Let The Beat Drop. The other 15 songs are still played heavily
Finally had time to digest the album.
The usual flaw on many of snoop' s albums is that it's too long and lacks cohesiveness (trying cater for too many different fan bases).
Other than that I actually really enjoyed it. I was expecting trash for the Swizz produced tracks going by some of the comments, but was pleasantly surprised (maybe they were too long).
Delivery wise, Snoop did really well and liked his change up of vocal styles.
Really solid album, some tracks really needed to be shorter to create more impact/punch and.then move on to the next track, but currently they drag out too long. I would have made tracks like legend, let me see em up much shorter.

Finally copped now that the physical was released .. Solid album, not one of his bests, but not one of his worst neither... A few bangers, mostly solid joints, and then a couple filler as well. The joints where he took it back on um like super crip were clearly the best tracks .. If he can make a full album like that, it would be received much better .. At this juncture, he tryna please people who don't really fux wit his music by doin joints like lighters up and legends .. Redundant when he coulda did an album fulla joints like super crip n woulda got every1 talkin again.

I see where you're coming from, but if you had a whole album of super-crip type tracklist will be played out and boring.
You need a variation on an album that a mixture of hard and smooth, up-tempo & slower paced tracks (see Doggystyle), but the quality of the tracks has to be good and fit well with the overall vibe of the project..

I mean, on some joints, u can tell he still got it .. So I duno about "washed", I think it's more to do wit the production than anythin
underrated album
I personally haven't like Snoop since Last Meal advance but as you're a fellow artist, I respect your opinion. Can't wait for your EP with Krazie Bone.
I see you're living up to your signature. Thats some mighty fine trolling there.
lol he’s halfway right tho
i got an lp comin wit kray on a couple joints
Not bad... (https://i.imgur.com/Tr3hmG3.png) Guess it's gonna be a (https://www.thecoli.com/media/hot-boi-summer-mj.19572/full) for you.
And I mean that entirely sincerely, no pause or trolling necessary, because I respect anyone who has the integrity to actualize their artistic vision and share it with the world.
