Good Music Good Vibe... still waiting on that Snoopadeliks album!
Good stuff. This is the kind of music I thought back in the 90s that Snoop would move onto by now. Keeping the funk, but graduating onto mature funk rather than g-funk. Instead, he went into a totally different direction, trying to appeal to 15-year old girls in the shopping malls. I mean, if Snoop would just make a full album of this kind of mature funk rap, I don't think anybody would have a problem with it -- we would like the funk, the media guys wouldn't have a problem with it because the lyrics wouldn't be violent, it would be good for his image because it would be mature but at the same time, still good music, because Snoop is at his best when he's doing FUNK. Plus, he would get a larger, more grownup audience, because this sort of music can play on 94.7 The Wave in L.A. and so forth, which his current bubblegum trash can't. I don't know why Snoop doesn't go permanently in this direction. It's our loss. Hopefully, he begins to realize that this is the type of music we want to hear him do.

If snoop read what you wrote, hopefully he'd agree because I am 100% behind you. I've been saying this for a long time now!
Yesterday Snoop was on Letterman where they hade Quincy Jones as guest. To present his new CD they invited Snoop to perform "Get The Funk Out Of My Face" live on stage. You can see Terrace Martin play the sax and Soopafly on the keys - great performance. Snoop's second verse is kinda weak though. Check it:!
