View More By Snoop Dogg Our ReviewComing fast on the heels of Dr. Dre’s seminal solo debut, Snoop Doggy Dogg’s Doggystyle plays like the sonic equivalent of the night of partying that must inevitably follow The Chronic’s long lazy afternoon of Crenshaw cruising. The Chronic ended on a slightly dark note, with the low-rolling menace and unbelievably casual misogyny of “Bitches Ain’t Shit”, and Snoop Dogg’s debut is shot through with that track’s debauched undercurrent. Though tracks like the unforgettable “Gin & Juice” and “Doggy Dogg World” provide moments of gleeful levity to rival the sun saturated joy of “Nuthin’ But A G’ Thang”, Doggystyle often sounds weary and dopesick where The Chronic was celebratory. Case in point is the epic “Murder Was The Case” which features an uncharacteristically baroque production from Dr. Dre and a relentlessly ferocious rap from Snoop, that finds the normally laid back MC mimicking Scarface’s cold-blooded delivery. Doggystyle’s occasionally gloom-laden atmosphere makes it at least as compelling as The Chronic, and helps to distinguish it from the glut of malt-liquor soaked West Coast party rap that began to appear on the charts in the wake of Death Row’s unexpected commercial ascendance.. Customer ReviewsWest Coast Thang (5 stars)This is one of the best west coast ablums ever. also this is one of the best rap ablums ever. from the begining to the end this ablum has some great funky beats. snoop dogg and the doggpound aare fantastic. Dr.Dre's production is as pure as it can get. Even to this day I still listen to this ablum. Thats why it sold over 4,000,000 copies This is a ture classic Some classics (5 stars) Thanks, Itunes, for getting all of the Death Row catalog. This album is my favorite. It has "Gin & Juice," "What's My Name," "Ain't No Fun," and "Doggy Dogg World." What is not to like about this album? Snoop at his best. Simply a Classic (5 stars) With today's commercialization and assimilation of the hip-hop culture in American entertainment, it's sometimes easy to think that a lot of rap today has started to lose it's edge. Snoop Dogg's first hit album, "Doggystyle" is a fresh reminder of how rap can be unique, energetic, and fun. While there are popular songs on this album (most notably: Gin and Juice, Who Am I?, Gz and Hustlas), those songs alone are incomplete with out BiographyBorn: October 20, 1972 in Long Beach, CAGenre: Hip Hop/Rap Years Active: '90s, '00s, '10s As the embodiment of '90s gangsta rap, Snoop Dogg blurred the lines between reality and fiction. Introduced to the world through Dr. Dre's The Chronic, Snoop quickly became the most famous star in rap, partially because of his drawled, laconic rhyming and partially because the violence that his lyrics implied seemed real, especially after he was arrested on charges of being a murder accomplice. The arrest certainly strengthened his myth, and it helped his debut album, 1993's Doggystyle, become the...
