Snoop Dogg — From tha Streets 2 tha Suites



Snoop Dogg releases an album on 4/20 for the first time. The rhythms are chosen by several of his historical collaborators, such as DJ Battlecat, Rick Rock, Soopafly and Nottz, among others. Guests are Prohoezak, Mozzy, Kokane, Larry June, Big Tray Deee, Goldie Loc, J Black and Devin the Dude. The project is ignored by critics, it's now five years since the experts have forgotten the existence of Snoop Dizzle. Now, even the public turns their backs on him: distributed by the independent Create, the tape doesn't enter any charts, for the first time after 18 studio albums, almost 30 years in the industry. It's one of the few times in which the boy guesses the number of tracks and the amount of time, nevertheless, the material is quite boring, generic and forgettable, it seems made up of discarded tracks from his previous albums: he performs in an uninspired way on a bland (at times, decent) production that mimics a bit of West Coast subgenres, from g-funk to mobb to hyphy. Eastsidaz is back in "Fetty in the Bag", I don't care. Not recommended, 5/10.
