I would rep you if i could.Real talk. Some of you need to be a little more open minded.
And to the dude that said 'Pac would be ashamed, you are FUCKING DUMB. You are talking about a man who LOVED stuff like Prince, Cameo, Zapp & Roger, a man open-minded enough to bump Alanis Morissette, Suzanne Vega, Don McLean, soundtracks to musicals such as Les Miserables. 'Pac would love this and the only thing he would be ashamed of is of some of his so called "fans" thinking he was as narrow-minded as them.
Love the Prince tribute in the video too....anyone that has seen the "When Doves Cry" video will spot the parts where Snoop is paying homage to that.
Some of you guys are straight up clowns who are unable to grasp the concept of creativity and progress. Keep bumping your Death Row stuff and pretending it's 1995.
doesn't matter. i don't like the song and regardless of my reasonings, i felt disgust when i saw snoop in the video. if the fact that my taste doesn't coincide with yours makes me full of shit, okay.Preach you are full of shit.
in fact, i would love to see snoop never release an album again but that's just me.Name, reputation and appearance? Please. That's garbage and you know it. You'd rather he did the same shit over and over for the rest of his career? He's been there, and done it. It's about fucking time he did something new and took a risk.
i'll respect that he is living his life and doing what he wants to do, but that doesn't mean i have to like it.He's been kicking it with funk legends like Bootsy Collins and Charlie Wilson for a long time and I can tell he's been itchin to do something like this for a while. Snoop is making the music he wants to make, and TBH I havent felt that vibe from him since Doggystyle. This is one of the best things the doggfather has ever done and most certainly a step forward, and yes that's from a professional musicians point of view, of which I am one and can speak from that perspective a damn sight more than anyone else on here.
people on the other side of that argument could entertain the notion that you are the one who is an asshole for being so persistent with your attitude.Some of you guys are straight up clowns who are unable to grasp the concept of creativity and progress. Keep bumping your Death Row stuff and pretending it's 1995.

it's not about the music. if amy winehouse sung this i'd probably think "hey, that's a catchy song", but since it's snoop who on his last album talked about everything from drugs and weapons to gangs and fucking people up. now he's singing about sensual seduction? it's so fucking typical anyway. had he been innovative he'd flipped shit and make like a real cool, deep, non-abstract, personal, in-your-face song that was like a rap track being sung. instead, he made a cliche A-B-C learn it in 1-2-3 pop song about something so simple, over-used and boring as "sensual seduction".
i am ashamed of a grown man having desires to make this. i am ashamed that he probably considers himself ambitions when this is like taking five steps backwards from a professional musician point of view (where you normally start out doing shit for the label. then your third album is praised as being new and innovative for being you, with a deeper, more intellectual feel to it). militant is probably gonna disagree, but i'm gonna say that this has nothing to do with "selling out", it has nothing to with this not being rap, it has everything to do with snoop trying to be something that doesn't fit his name and reputation. not to mention, appearance.
this is what i meant about pac being ashamed, as in ashamed by snoop as a person for doing this... you cant be a gangster and sing this shit at the same time. like you said if someones else did it then it would just fine...
You wouldn't know that.Snoop was never a gagnster, he just acted like one.
Yet if it was a country song nobody would stick up for him.. Snoop is unoriginal in all that he does. I never liked snoop I think he sucks. Its not about gangster or not, its about this guy just dyin 2 fit in with whats new...And 2 what Aron said about the gangshit 2pac wasnt a gang member but would have songs like gangster party, and inturn say he was never a gangster rapper..Went as far as 2 say he didnt even know what gangster rap was. You know what, I still got love for pac b/c his music is GOOD, no matter what it is he did in his free time...
Thats not even vocoder or a talkbox, it's autotune.
But yeah, the song is good, and you can tell Snoop likes this type of music, for him its good. Im happy for any artist that makes music that they enjoy, this is after all the type of stuff he would listen to.
And hey, better this than another song with the Pussycat Dolls or Justin.
Yeah it's Autotune on the song, but on the live video I posted he is using the vocoder that's built in to the microkorg. My cousin has the microkorg and uses that vocoder sometimes live when he doesnt want to bring the full talkbox.
