only on track 2 and i'm grooving my ass off 8)

it's way more disco sounding that Pharrell's album, his best production in years, probably since The Neptunes were killing it back in the early 2000s.
the worst tracks funny enough are the ones featuring other rappers - Edibles & I'm Ya Dogg. the rest is a straight jam, brilliant album 8)
but i can't see a lot of the rap fans here liking it - it's not gfunk or gangsta and there's more singing than rapping. like i said before, Pharrell's throwback production is the star here. it's more disco smooth grooves than anything. Peaches N Cream is prolly the closest to being straight 'funky'.

^^my thoughts exactly, I don't feel like snoop's charisma and personality really come through, but lately it's like snoop has been going in different directions with dam funk and snoop lion, this has great replay value and it makes sense for him I been bumping his radio station on the dash app and it fits in with where he is at right now ...
-
R.I.P. Snoop Dogg - I Knew that, i knew that, i knew that. smfdh.
7 days of funk was 100 times better, too bad snoop used the gimmick name zilla and hardly promoted it right.
-
I was really waiting for that one and it doesnt disapoint at all, straight funky and frech.
I like that Snoop singing and I dont consider this an official snoop comeback as well, he continues to deliver his experimental projects and Im ok with it 8)
Worst song is the TI assisted one but on the other side the TI feature on Tech album is dopeeeeee

This is Groovy!!! Grown Folks music!

Track 2 to Track 6 already in my Galaxy . 8)
Cadillacc music is burning too ..
That Snoopdeville mix is something :pimp:
-
wack ! singin, autotune, pussy ass beats ...WTF .......fuck pharell too and his pussy ass production
thank god for tray dee
-
full itunes version out 8)
nice to see the 'west west' posters are enjoying it :laugh:
-
This is Groovy!!! Grown Folks music!

Very well produced comes through the speakers and headphones nice, it doesn't feel like a snoop album, and it is more like 7 Days of
funk project with less rapping. It doesn't feel as forced as the Lion but doesn't really satisfy that Snoop album feel either.
-
excited about this. my type of shit! i always tell my girl that snoop, pharrell and Charlie are a dream team
-
downloading now
-
i'll give it a spin on spotify later

R.I.P. Snoop Dogg - I Knew that, i knew that, i knew that. smfdh.
7 days of funk was 100 times better, too bad snoop used the gimmick name zilla and hardly promoted it right.
it's just music u know? no need to feel butthurt about few music tones that u didn't like u know?
btw. have mc eith released the tracklist for WWIW yet? ;D

Never heard of mc eith.

guna cop it soon n get back when I give it a proper spin

I fuck with this, pretty groovy project... only song I might skip is the track featuring Gwen Stefani and even that wasn't bad
gotta give it one or two more listens in the ride though to decide if I buy it or not
-
Snoop only raps on Peaches N Cream. Rest is funky singing. Not an album for Snoop rap fans. It's not bad, just he should have changed his name again to something like Snoop Funk or something. I'll pass since it's not my thing. Don't give me shit and say "if your a true Snoop fan you would like this."
-
shoulda stuck wit the snoopzilla moniker.
-
Its a nice sounding album overall, great to cruise around town, the album has alot of sing along hooks wich is great, the song with Gwen has that throwback neptunes feel (that most of this board use to hate) Good follow up to 7 days of Funk... Grown Folks music. If you are looking for Gangsta music, this is not the album for you.

I bought the LP yesterday and listened to it later that evening. I was somehow dissapointed by the album after the first listen as "Peaches N Cream" really blew me away when it came out. I kinda expected a more Disco Funk approach to the album and there was surprised by the actual sound of the whole project. I gave the album another spin earlier today and it really grew on me, though, as I now know what sound they tried to find with this album. Had "California Roll" in my head all day, awesome song.
My favourite tracks are "Peaches N Cream", "So Many Pros", "California Roll" and "R U A Freak", but "Edibles" and "I'm Ya Dogg" are terrible in my opinion. All other tracks are still great, but the ones I mentioned are my personal standouts. I can see me listen to the album many, many times in the future.

word, couldn't agree more about 'Edibles' & 'I'm Ya Dogg', those two tracks are awful considering how out of place they are on this project. whoever had the idea to put two tracks like that on there nuked any chances of it being a classic LP. still, i removed those two and you still have an incredible 8 track playlist. there's a Japan bonus track coming too so we might be back up to 9 8)
hard time picking favourites the 8 tracks are all legit great. i think 'I Knew That' is the track the vocals ruin the most for me. the instrumental is pure brilliance, proper disco groove, but something about Snoop's singing is a bit overbearing & uncomfortable. 'Awake' is seriously impressing me, that's a 10/10 right there and I liked 'So Many Pros' even more than Peaches N Cream, such a smooth hook. the track w/ Gwen Stefani deserves a shoutout too, big grower and it's like a time capsule back to that old school Neptunes sound. then there's 'R U A Freak', another laid back groove, catchy and the vocals work well. 'California Roll' we don't need to say much about, straight classic.
so yeah, a lot of good stuff to say about this project. Pharrell slam dunks the production, I 'd love to hear more like this material with his vocals instead of Snoop.

I don't see why all the flack for "Edibles" and "I'm Ya Dogg" sure they sound a bit out of place but still not bad songs lol to each his own

Absolutely, those two tracks really stood out in a negative way...they just didn't flow with the overall vibe. "Edibles" could work on a Neptunes album and "I'm Ya Dogg", don't know, nowhere. ;D
Didn't know about that Japanese bonus track. That's great news, looking forward to that one. 8)

I have the same feeling about "I Knew That", actually I had the impression that the song never really "started", if you know what I mean. There is just nothing going on on the vocal part so it feels like one long chorus instead of a song with various elements. That Stefani track was a nice surprise for me as well, even though it also is more of a Neptunes song than a Snoop Dogg one. I was afraid she would do some of her semi-rapping, but she's a good support for the track. All supporting singers really added to the songs...would love to say the same about the guest rappers. ;)
I don't see why all the flack for "Edibles" and "I'm Ya Dogg" sure they sound a bit out of place but still not bad songs lol to each his own
It's not like they are that horrible, but they ruin the overall listening experience of the LP. Their sound just stand outs in a bad way and I can't seem to get warm with them. The vocals are very repetitive on "Edibles" and overall there is nothing special about it, best part is actually T.I. and that really was a surprise for me. About "I'm Ya Dogg": I don't really know, the overall sound of the production and vocals bored me from the very first few seconds. Ross' part feels waaay out of place, but I don't mind the Kendrick part - it's nothing special, but could have been worse. Should have used this one as a iTunes bonus track or something with the real LP closing with a proper track instead of two guest rappers. Who knows, maybe those are one of the tracks that suddenly grow on me. Happened before. lol ;D

no chance of that here, they're deleted, never to return ;D the tempo/vibe is way off the rest of it, definitely ruins the flow.
-
"Edibles" could work on a Neptunes album.
and the song reminds me of that Pharrell x Game X Snoop collab : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3da014_i48
which was a good mixtape track (Doggumentary era)
-
just caught up all of Pharrell's recent output, he has some nice material on the last Jennifer Hudson album - JHUD (4 tracks). if you're feeling the disco influence here his stuff on there should hit the spot 8)

Speaking of 7 days of funk any ine got that track "wingz" that was a bonus? I bump it from to time off YouTube pretty Funky joint

yea..im waitin for the new Gospel Ice cube album!
and new dr dre blues and country album !
and cant forget the new king tee reggae album
-
I'd say "Run Away" and "Awake" are the weakest tracks on this, both "Edibles" and "I'm Ya Dogg" are better
-
Wtf are y'all listenin to?
U really mean to tell me we have to pretend to hate this Music and downplay it becuz it's New and it's not unreleased Death Row Snoop Dogg?
So I and everyone else has to somehow say this album is wack or "underwhelming" just Becuz because?
Foh. Being provocative is starting to become a lost art

Bloggers just be sayin anything just to get a reaction and to pick your brain.

First of let me say Snoop is my favorite rapper now that's out the way. IMO! snoop can't sing to save his life, and he only gets a pass because of his name. 2nd Snoop is a rap artist and should stick to it whether his rapping about kindergarten stuff or street stuff i don't mind as long as it's RAP. If he wanted the singing album he shouldn't have called it Snoop Dogg album and should of used his gimmick alternatives.

Nah. Y'all are just complaining just to complain. Dubcc is full of Negative Nancys

how does experimenting with other sounds make Snoop a sellout? dude is comfortable and content with the music he makes and he does it because he wants to, not because anybody is forcing him to by pulling strings
and Quik has NOT used the same sound his whole career, every album of his sounds significantly different so by that logic he sold out too

its not even a hip hop album WTF ?
go listen to the washed up has been rappers that still talk about killing people from 30 years ago then
thats the only thing i bump...1990 -1995 !
good for you, living in the past and being narrow minded must be a beautiful thing
sure..i like real MC's...with skills ! rappin ! not singin over cheap pop funk tracks with no soul
this album is not short on soulful sounds.
fuck the sounds :) there are some nice sounds true,,...but i was talkin about SOUL IN LYRICS AND RAPS !
i dont wanna hear peaches and cream type of shit ! he smokes too much weed ..he is lost...he forgot about the ART...and that he is a HIP HOP artist !
if u like funk go listen to george clinton and some 70's shit with real soul..and motown ! not snoop dogg tryin to be funk...
first he wanna be gangsta,..thn reggae, now we have funk..whats next ?? heavy metal snoop ?
like someone heer said..it would be better/ok if he used alias on this album! not SNOoP DOGG name !
im tired of all the trap shit, young thug shit,club dance songs.....and finally i see new snoop album coming...and i get album full of pop and funk tracks LOL
none of what you just said makes any sense lol Snoop said it from the get-go that this wasn't going to be a hip-hop album so I don't understand why your panties are all in a bunch and you're trying to dictate what sound he can/can't do
it dont make sense to u cuz u ignorant !
as a snoop dogg fan i have the right to say what music he should do, its my opinion! ! he is here cuz of us ! can u use your brain please ?
he is doin this sound cuz its popular at the moment...he did the album radio friendly....100 % SOLD OUT ! do u understand ? or did the new snoop sounds destroyed your brains ????????
IF u are an artist u dont do shit like that ! go with the trends...follow whats popular....and spacially u dont do the whole fuckin album like that
sorry but he shut the door for me with this one ! i cant take him serous anymore .....he is a JOKE !
I think you need to be more aware of the way you spell/type and express your opinion before trying to call me ignorant lol
who else is doing this sound that he's copying?

u act like snoop invented some new style LOL! ....
its a cheap imitation of funk !

i havent really heard it, but from the songs i did hear, it's not amazing and it's not whack...it's somewhere in between. so both sides gettin extreme wit it are goin over-the-top...but i do understand why people wouldnt want a snoop record fulla auto-tune singin and what not. despite the fact that some of the production is on point, it's not what snoop fans are lookin for. i'm sure pink floyd fans would be pretty upset too if they came out with a rap album.....but it aint that serious, snoop's been about his money for some time now, so i dont understand why some are surprised by this..........coulda been whacker, coulda been better. it is what it is. if u didnt enjoy 7 days of funk, then ull never enjoy a snoop project again, because that was snoop doin snoop.

finally someone that understands ! AMEN ! :)
well Pharell made Vato and some other gangsta bangers for snoop before..so i thought BUsh gonna have some g shit also...but since pharell is all in the funk now this is what we got....fuck it....
people might have different opinions but every hip hop fan will tell u this is the worst snoop dogg album ever !

the album sounds nothing like any of those you mentioned except for maybe the song "Get Lucky" lol I heard the Daft Punk album when it dropped and I don't think I ever heard Pharell's full album but nothing on here sounded like "Happy" to me, Snoop already had the album in the works before "Uptown Funk" dropped... I never said Snoop invented the style I said he did what he felt like doing, but you're borderline illiterate so I don't blame you for nothing catching that... plus you've flip flopped around in here first bashing the production saying it had no soul then you turned around and said it was the lyrics, then you said it would have been ok if he released it under the "Zilla" moniker
this album as a body of work > Malice In Wonderland, Reincarnated, Da Game Is To Be Sold

i cant wait till the next snoop album
so i can see all you retards excited thinking its going to be another DOGGYSTYLE and then disappointed :D
-
Dope Dope Dope tracks.
Snoop set the bar with this album..and Cadillacc Radio.
People hating...you're was waiting for?
Doggstyle 2 ? Murda Was The Case : Reloaded ?
C'mon this was the 90's . We are in 2015
snoop himself said doggystyle part 2 is coming next ! instead of that, he released this shit !
doggystyle 2 would be the only normal thing to do, since all the wack ass dance songs and duets (katty perry and so on) and snoop LION shit he did !!
when was the last time he did a song for his real fans, fans of gangsta rap/gangsta funk ! ?????
and i wanna know what is so dope here ?
no classic songs...no classic beats, no classic lyrics, verses ....hooks...NOTHING !
no guest mc's...
mediocre shit....soft comercial funk ..since its so popular ( bruno mars, pharell -daft punk)
nobody will listen to this album in a few months....and EVERYBODY STILL LISTENS TO DOGGYSTYLE !
this is 2015 not the 90s ?? WHATS YOUR POINT ???FUNK WAS OUT BEFORE RAP ....SO IT MEANS HE WENT BACK TO THE 70'S INSTEAD OF THE 90S' !
AND YEA ITS 2015...COPS KILLING KIDS,RACISM ALIVE ORE THEN EVER.... AND SHIT LIKE THAT..AND HERE WE HAVE SNOOP DOIN HAPPY SONGS WITH PHARELL -FUCK THAT SHIT !
this are the perfect times for gangsta music again with message and political raps....
USE YOUR FUCKIN BRAIN ! STOP LISTENING TO THIS POP SHIT !
if snoop countinue to do shit like that he will lose all of his fans...trust me !
SO WHEN THE NEW DR.DRE ALBUM WILL COME OUT (IF EVER) AND THE NWA SOUNDTRACK WILL COME..WE CAN EXPECT FUNK AND POP AND DANCE AND TRAP MUSIC ?? SINCE ITS NOT THE 90S ??? gtfo
7 DAYS OF FUNK WAS BASICALLY DOGGYSTYLE 2

u really r stupid ! album is good produced...has some nice soundS and melodies ! BUT ALBUM fUCKIN SUCKS BECAUSE SNOOP IS A HIP HOP ARTIST AND ALBUM HAS NO HIP HOP BEATS ! (plus he is singin with autotune )
BUT STILL, ITS COMERCIAL FUNK, IF I ONLY LOOK AT THE INSTRUMENTAL PART OF THE ALBUM ( IF I IGNORE THE VOCALS),I CAN SAY ITS NO THRILLER (MJ) and PHARELL is no QUINCY JONES !
AND YEA IT DONT HAVE ENOUGH SOUL! PHARELL IS FUCKIN OVERRATED !
with this production IF pharell put bruno mars on it, and RNB singers ...it might be ok, I MIGHT EVEN LIKED IT....BUT SINCE ITS "SNOOP DOGG" "RAPPIN" ON IT ITS FUCKIN WACK ....
and also i didn't pay that much attention on the instrumentals..cuz i fuckin stopped on every song when i heard the first 10 seconds....i only liked the song with T.I
DID I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR THIS TIME ! JESUS U R LIKE A FLY !
and yea it would be OK ( still not OK,but better ) if he used ALIAS...just like he did reagge project and he used LION....he could use somethin for this one...maybe SNOOP ELEPHANT ( HAHAHA)

Body of work my ass & Da Game Is To Be Sold, And Not to be Told was a good album. Anyway Snoops been dead a long while now. I don't know how he pulled off making a decent album like doggumentary. Either way even if Snoop makes a rap album again it's gonna be pretensions.
-
Didnt yall watched Reincarnated? Dude clearly said he was tired of rapping, as for this album, how can you hate on the production???! Its.clean with.live elements and has that throwback 70s feel + u have Charlie Wilson on almost every track who is a funk legend... just enjoy this shit, dont be picky its just music

Don't forget Snoop wanted to do a Blue Grass sound album too. No joke.

'pop funk' is a whole genre into itself called disco, generally including smoother, soulful elements.
it was known from the get-go this album was gonna be more of a pharrell project, i think anyone paying any attention knew exactly the type of album we'd be getting.

had a friend over inclined to hip hop/funk grooves and they were loving the album. especially when 'Awake' came on, the bassline & guitar riff is jammin' 8)

fav tracks are so many pros, california roll, awake, edibles, and peaches and cream

I didn't read all the comments about this album.
After first listen, these are my thoughts.
It's jamming, production level is 9/10.
Bumps in my car like a mutha.
Pharrel delivered.
Now talking about Snoop, I have no idea what was going through his head during this project.
He should have rapped all over these groovy beats!
The facts is, Snoop can still rap, way better than most of the rappers out there at the moment, why he doesn't do it anymore, is beyond me.
A few decent verses would've made this project, a personal classic for ME.
He chose the lazy route, to sing some simple lines over dope beats.
Snoop Dogg made his name for being a sharp MC!
Not a lyricist but a 'Sharp MC', that's his strongest point.
He flows effortlessly on the mic, that would've been perfect for this project and make it a good 'Snoop Dogg' project.
As it is, it is a very good Pharrel project with a lazy, can't be bothered Snoop.
I have been looking forward to this project, since I heard Snoop & Pharrel are in the lab together, they have good chemistry.
Pharrel delivered 100% but Snoop let this project down.
And this is coming from a big Snoop fan.
My tracks from this project
This City
Awake
Peaches N Cream
California Roll (A good verse would've made this song an Amazing one).

well i learnt that XXL have some terrible writers.

California Roll, This City, Awake, Peaches n Cream are great. The album is a bit disappointing overall, though.
I Was expecting more effort from Snoop. I'm surprised Skate P didn't bring more out of Snoop here. That flow on tracks like Beautiful, Vato and DILIH is unbeatable. I needed to hear some of that on this album to satisfy me.
-
the song with stevie wonder is incredible.

Anybody hatin on this album can suck my dick.
yeah pretty much

i agree 100% ! he has stevie wonder ,Pharell and Chralie singin, why the hell he has to sing too ???
Some songs could be dope if he would rap on it! California Roll is dope..but snoop ruined it with his wack singin!....
this album could be released without snoops vocals ..would be the same !
not even 1 dope verse from snoop on this album, and people talk about like its the masterpiece...cuz they only see the instrumetal part - BUT THATS PHARELL, NOT SNOOP!
if he would rap, even with this comercial beat, i would somehow liked it,even tho i still cant believe there are no hip hop beats
but with funk beats, and him singin.how the fuck can i like the album '?
classic album means = dope music AND DOPE LYRICS AND VOCALS ! this one has wack vocals, and a few nice produced tracks which makes it 4/10
next time he better RAP HIS ASS OFF !!!!1

whats ur point? hes sayin that an album full of snoop doin autotune signin aint the business...and he's right. like everyone sayin, the production carried the album. snoop surely coulda did more. doesn't have to be doggystyle, but he's a rapper, not a singer.

there was nothing wrong with the singing, it's what the production called for... had he rapped he would have more than likely had a few just OK verses then the rest would have been some ABC/123 lyricism which would have in fact ruined the production
if he's going to 'rap' then get the hip-hop/g-funk production, this is smoothed out grown man music

he's just not a good singer.......his abc raps are still better than the autotune shit. granted, it doesnt sound terrible, but he definitely coulda brought more to the table. snoop proved he could rap on funk beats on "7 days of dunk"....even "peaches n cream", the best part was that lil verse he did....this was a bigger stage for him to showcase that same style. if u like it, all good...but no need to get mad at peeps expecting a rap album from snoop.

and this is 2015, next year it will be 2016... that song was also recorded more than 2 years ago probably during Doggumentary sessions
whats ur point? hes sayin that an album full of snoop doin autotune signin aint the business...and he's right. like everyone sayin, the production carried the album. snoop surely coulda did more. doesn't have to be doggystyle, but he's a rapper, not a singer.
there was nothing wrong with the singing, it's what the production called for... had he rapped he would have more than likely had a few just OK verses then the rest would have been some ABC/123 lyricism which would have in fact ruined the production
if he's going to 'rap' then get the hip-hop/g-funk production, this is smoothed out grown man music
he's just not a good singer.......his abc raps are still better than the autotune shit. granted, it doesnt sound terrible, but he definitely coulda brought more to the table. snoop proved he could rap on funk beats on "7 days of dunk"....even "peaches n cream", the best part was that lil verse he did....this was a bigger stage for him to showcase that same style. if u like it, all good...but no need to get mad at peeps expecting a rap album from snoop.
I'm not mad at anybody, if anything Recognize is the maddest motherfucker in this thread lol dudes just love to hate on artists and shit on their work with no real justification just so they can sound like the know it all, hippity-hopping backpacker
7 Days Of Funk was dope too but I can't even say that album and Bush are even close to being anything alike, two different vibes even if it's all funk

Snoop will never be the same Snoop that he was on Doggystyle ever again, get over it groupie

personally, i too would prefer snoop rapping over snoop singing, so i cant be mad at anyone who shares that point of view.....but theres obviously people who dig it, so i cant be mad at snoop either. it's not like he's rakim. he's been known to venture out and even collaborates with faggot boy-bands, so it's not really surprising. at the end of the day, if some1 feels snoop coulda brought more to the table, then thats their prerogative. i still haven't heard the project, but from what i heard, it wasn't whack...i'll prolly pick it up this weekend.

yall are all full of shit. the album is incredible and the natural progression of an artist thats been in the game for 20 years...now that snoop lion shit felt as forced as gangrape
he has to keep reinventing himself to stay relevant when a artist like modonna or seal does this its such an epic watershed moment in music, the only ppl mad at this are the kids that had doggystyle basically as thier intro to hip hop, i get it.
this album was masterfully crafted...and trimmed down to not be too much...its reintroducing a new sound (thats not really new to snoops fan base as hes always dabbled in funk and 70s vibe) some of yall dont even understand whats going on on some of those tracks. on california roll they are trying there best to recreate the sound from songs on the key of life from stevie wonders album. everything from the songs structure to the way they had snoop layer his vocals like stevie...its all there. do you know how incredible that is? naw...yall dont. he got niles rodgers on this shit and yall cats prolly dont even know who that is....if one thing ill give the euros is they respect the history of the music alot more then his state side fans. yeah i woulda liked some rappin but for a niche project like that its cool. ppl said the same thing when kanye dropped the 808s synth pop album then they took that album and made a whole lane out of it for drake....

CALIFORNIA ROLL AND AWAKE ARE THE ONLY DECENT SONGS ON THIS ALBUM . BUSH IS A TERRIBLE AND WACK ALBUM , SNOOP FELL OFF AND CAN'T GET BACK ON . His new projects have been garbage . Pharells beats and production are terrible and lame . This beats suck ass and the songs themself are too soft and lame for my taste . BUSH ALBUM RATING = 2/5 2 STARS outta 5 .

don't know with this album...i'm a little bit dissapointed, but maybe it will grow on me if i give it a few more spins.
it's more disco than straight up funky but that's what i expected. production is nice on the most tracks, but like many people said, snoop's vocals sound lazy and uninspired for the most part. don't know why he ain't rappin', that shit worked on r&g...

Seems like I found out what the bonus track for the Japan release will be: "Peaches N Cream (Instrumental)" Well that's a letdown.... ;D ...but the actual beat is crazy, so having the chance to listen to the instrumental will be great. I found the info on some Japanese site when trying to find out any listing of the bonus cut. Here's where I found the info: http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/SICP-4434 (http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/SICP-4434)
Still listening to this album daily (thanks to the length). Really feeling it. 8)
It's a good change from the regular Snoop Dogg that we are all used to. With Snoop I see it like this: 1) Grabbing money and keeping his name out there with his features on mainstream records. 2) Finding an unique sound and realizing his visions on his solo albums. 3) Spitting bars on his mixtapes and rap artists features, including filthy gangsta raps.

nice find, they didn't have any info for #11 before. will gladly take that, it's not a new track but a lot better than nothing. would love instrumentals for the whole project tho...

this .. upon first listen, gota say I'm disappointed. was expectin a lot after peteys post. the production is on point, and the background vocalists came thru. but snoop is just an awful singer. he's good for a bridge or two, but a full album? cmon now..shits too contrived. I can see how one would find it to be an enjoyable, easy goin summer time album.. but overall, it just sounds like forced disco-pop ..... borderline kids album. as I expected, 7 days of funk was wayyyy better. shit might still grow on me, but the singles sounded like the best cuts off the album on first listen. California roll was smooth but Stevie's part straight killed that autotune shit snoop was doin. it's like a full album of sensual seduction type cuts with better engineering and a higher budget to bring the legends along as a form of validation.
-
Gave it a 3rd spin in the whip and deleted it. Snoop can't sing. Oh well. At least a few people like it. Maybe the youngsters will dig it cuz Pharrell did the beats and all.
I still bump Kanye Wests 808 album. He pulled it off. But this just is missing something.
-
Okay, some mixed responses on here but my thoughts....
I was really hyped after Peaches and cream dropped, but after the initial listening of the album I was initially let down.
I would liked a bit more rapping like on Peaches & cream, there is very little substance in terms of lyrics, but after a few spins I have to admit it started to grow on me.
1 week later and i'm constantly bumping it (it really makes a difference playing it though a decent sound system) and now can't get the tunes out of my head.
True Snoop wasn't amazing and isn't the best singer but it wasn't wack imo. I think the fact Snoop is still regarded as a rapper only makes it an automatic turn off for some and can't get their head around this niche project (I also admit I enjoyed the Snoop Lion project on the whole).
Snoop stopped being a pure rapper years ago, he's now an entertainer/all-round artist who doesn't want to be pigeon holed as a gangsta rapper.
If you want a Doggystyle type album, go listen to Doggystyle.
You want some Westcoast/LBC gangsta album, pop in your Eastsidaz CD, but this is a chilled, funky pop funk album that bumps in the summer.
The only track I wasn't feeling was 'I'm your dogg', but the rest i'm seriously bumping.

i think for the most people it's not about snoop beeing no pure rapper no more...it's just that he should do where he good at imo. he always sang a few parts, that was always his style and it was cool. and i don't mean that he have to put out a gangsta-album neither...a full album with snoop singing is just to much for me lol, not out of principal but because his singing is not good enough imo. but like i said, it's far from beeing a bad album and it could be that it'll grow on me.

That's my problem with it, Snoop is not a singer. If it was some unknown/new artist singing like that he/she would be getting bashed left and right or better yet, the album wouldn't have come out at all but since it's Snoop Dogg he gets a pass to sing like shit for an entire album with almost no rapping :grumpy:. When he sings here and there it's ok, never great but it can work but he usually does still rap and that's when he is at his best (his best, not saying he is the best, don't get it twisted). Imo he found the perfect balance on 7 Days of Funk, it was rap, r&b and funk, Snoop rapped and sang. 7 Days should have been a full album and if it would have had Charlie Wilson, Stevie Wonder and maybe some other old school funk artist like George Clinton (or atleast some Kokane ;D) then maybe it would have been the album that most of us would have expected and liked a lot more. Other than California Roll and Peaches N Cream there really aren't any songs on the level of, for example, "Lets Get Blown" from Rhythm & Gangsta; that's not one of my favorite Snoop songs but for what it is, it's good, and I think that's what they were going for on Bush but didn't pull off as well. That's just imo though.

Great album generally, but terrible as a Snoop album.
Pharrell makes this album great despite Snoop's presence on it. Just when I'd start enjoying the music, Snoop's vocals came in and ruined it all.
Anyone got a link to that Peaches N Cream instrumental that's on Japanese iTunes?
-
i think i enjoy listening to that album. It's funky and cool although the last 4 tracks are more unhurried*. However let's face it, and disagree with Pharrell ; "Bush" aint never get no Grammys.
Because it simply follows the trend of Get Lucky (what's up Nile Roggers!) or the last Chromeo LP, the Tuxedo project, Mark Ronson's Uptown Special and of course, the GIRL sound.
* And even though this is a short Snoop album. It still is too long of an LP. Like any Snoop albums by the way. Except for his Death Row debut ;D.

01. California Roll feat. Stevie Wonder - 4/5
02. This City - 4/5
03. R U A Freak - 4/5
04. Awake - 3.5/5
05. So Many Pros - 3/5
06. Peaches N Cream feat. Charlie Wilson - 4/5

08. I Knew That - 3/5
09. Run Away feat. Gwen Stefani - 3/5
10. I'm Ya Dogg feat. Kendrick Lamar & Rick Ross - 4/5
my final breakdown after giving it a few more spins in the ride, not quite good enough where I'll go buy it but I can see myself revisiting certain tracks in a few years
-
so many pros is a top 3 cut on there

comes off as sounding the same as 3 songs before it to me and blends in too much, maybe I should try giving it a listen on its own

edibles is a dope record and sounds ill in the car so is im ya dogg...just dont like rick ross on it
-
Been long enough to fully digest the album now, and I gotta say....I just can't get into it. Coming from a long time Snoop fan and supporter, it's hard to say, but I'm not feeling this album. California Roll is the best track followed by peaches n cream. But very disappointed in the project overall. The song Awake, what a complete waste of great production from Snoop. I cannot believe skate P did not push Snoop more on this album.

DO U NOW AGREE WITH ME THAT 7 DAYS OF FUNK SHITS ON THIS?

7 days of funk was a dope project and has its own lane but calling that album doggy style and saying this is inferior to that project i cant really agree with but respect your opinion.
hate the fucking gwen stefani song and theres one more from here i dont like other then that this is in snoops top five, you fuckers.
...just playin ;)

it's obviously nowhere close to doggystyle, but it's as close as u gone get considering its snoop rappin over funky beats .. anyone who is dumb enough to misinterpret what I said to the point that they think I'm puttin it on the same level as far as overall production value (Willard) needs to slap themselves
anyway snoop came way harder on 7 days than on bush and the production is far more organic and way less pop. production on both albums is on point tho..I prefer bush sonically, but overall I prefer the sound of 7 days, which is closer to authentic funk, where as bush sounds more like disco pop
-
One thing for sure, Snoops raps is missing on this album...The production is amazing but its missing something, I believe that Snoop is doing so many things at the same time that he wasnt focussed on this album, I mean its not hard to get a singing coach if you really want to sing..
No Thang On Me and Leave me alone are great singing tracks.

Agreed, but regardless of how focused Snoop is or isn't, I'm surprised P got behind this and put it out. The way he was talking about winning Grammys and whatnot....you've got to be kidding!
-
yea, i haven't gotten into this one. It all sounds the same, and i haven't accepted Snoop Dogg/Lion's new flow yet, probably gonna grow on me though, been riding wit snoop

Bush was more pop/commercial friendly than 7 days, but that isn't a bad thing imo, but I agree sonically Bush is far above 7 Days. I guess it's also the taste of the listener, i've been into my disco funk recently ie listeing in to 'Fresh' by Kool & the gang & 'Get Down Saturday night' by Oliver Cheatham - dope tracks, so that's why i'm really feeling the bush album.

I bought the album and have jammed it a few times at home and in the car, and I have to admit, I'm really enjoying it.
It has a great groovy vibe from beginning to end, is easy to listen to, and is short so doesn't outstay its welcome (unlike every Snoop Dogg album with the exception of Doggystyle and 7 Days of Funk).
I think if you approach the album knowing that it's not a typical Snoop Dogg rap album, then you will like it a lot more. Also, contrary to what others have said, I don't think there are any tracks that don't seem to fit in. In fact, this is one of the most cohesive projects Snoop has put together, perhaps even too cohesive considering a couple of the tracks have the same drum loops.
They need to release 'This City' as a single next 8) I think that has the potential to be a big track.
-
i think 'Run Away' would have the most legs as a single to catch on in the mainstream, maybe a slightly shorter edit. i probably would have picked that over 'Peaches N Cream' or 'So Many Pros' to be honest, regardless of my preference.

nah "This City" is too good of a song to be pushed as a single, no need for radio to butcher that shit by overplaying it like they do everything else... "Run Away" is the worst of the album but has the biggest potential, not many die-hard Snoop fans fucking with this album anyway so they might as well push it to other audiences

"Run Away" is the worst of the album but has the biggest potential, not many die-hard Snoop fans fucking with this album anyway so they might as well push it to other audiences
run away sounds like trash. won't really catch on ..... this city has a classic pharell sound that always produces hits

Young Thug and Fetty Wap sound like trash too but their music seems to catch on with the general public

put the fuckin scrotum in the basket.

I bought the album and have jammed it a few times at home and in the car, and I have to admit, I'm really enjoying it.
It has a great groovy vibe from beginning to end, is easy to listen to, and is short so doesn't outstay its welcome (unlike every Snoop Dogg album with the exception of Doggystyle and 7 Days of Funk).
I think if you approach the album knowing that it's not a typical Snoop Dogg rap album, then you will like it a lot more. Also, contrary to what others have said, I don't think there are any tracks that don't seem to fit in. In fact, this is one of the most cohesive projects Snoop has put together, perhaps even too cohesive considering a couple of the tracks have the same drum loops.
They need to release 'This City' as a single next 8) I think that has the potential to be a big track.
Bingo, in think you hit the nail on the head. People go into it expecting a typical rap album by Snoop and not taking it for what it is. I think it is a very dope project and I hope him and P do more albums together. At this stage in Snoop's life (close to 50, just became a grandfather) he's not gonna be Murdering the Case anymore so he's gonna do music that feels good to him. I think it's feel good music and I'm diggin it. Of course Snoop's not the best singer but most funk bands didn't have helluva singers (George Clinton or James Brown are not Luther Vandross lol) but they are more like another instrument in the funk. I give Snoop & P props that they were able to try something different in an era where every artist these days are dick riders and copy each other or use the same type sounds and/or producers (how many songs come on saying Mustard on the beat hoe or Mike Will Made It?) and I think they pulled it off.

well said, most in this thread are just close minded and only appreciate what's washed up

i think 'Run Away' would have the most legs as a single to catch on in the mainstream, maybe a slightly shorter edit. i probably would have picked that over 'Peaches N Cream' or 'So Many Pros' to be honest, regardless of my preference.
RUN AWAY IS THE WORST ON THE ALBUM, IM GLAD THEY DINT PICK THAT 1
yeah run away and awake are the 2 skippers for me

It would have been dope with a Nate Dogg feature
