Snoop Dogg returns to his roots on his G-funk indebted 15th album.
It's a tough thing to admit, but it's time to face facts: Snoop Dogg has been phoning it in for years. And lately, it's been hard to take his call.
Snoop's last good album was Tha Blue Carpet Treatment in 2006 and in the 11 years since, we've had five
albums varying from the wayward (2009's Malice n Wonderland), to the weird (2015's bonkers Bush) to the downright disturbing (2013's Reincarnated, which saw him change his name to Snoop Lion and duet with Miley Cyrus).
Ugh. If you're a fan of Snoop's early days, which helped usher in a new era of thug-level gangsta rap, it's been a lean time. Those lean times are finally over.
On Neva Left - his 15th record - Snoop returns to his roots. That means he's gone all the way back to his debut, 1993's G-funk masterpiece Doggystyle, for inspiration. Great idea.
