Notes:
| Props to the other group for putting out the regular edition, here is the
| Japanese Retail with an extra bonus track. Enjoy!
|
| The original idea behind what Snoop Dogg considers his ninth album --
| ignoring all those pesky and shoddy fringe releases -- was that the title
| represented a truly solo effort with no guest shots. As the street date grew
| closer, the rapper flipped the script and decided that Ego Trippin' referred
| to how he "let" people write songs for the album, songs Snoop could rap and
| sometimes, shockingly, sing. The leadoff good-time single "Sensual Seduction"
| -- or "Sexual Eruption" on the explicit album -- proved the latter wasn't a
| bad idea at all, with Snoop crafting a hooky bedroom track using both a smirk
| and a throwback Zapp feel. It was a perfect flagship release for an album
| that tries numerous things but never tries too hard, plus one where the
| nostalgia is plentiful and perfectly chosen. At the heart of it all are the
| "overseers" of the album, QDT Muzic, a production crew formed by Snoop along
| with new jack swing legend Teddy Riley and West Coast hero DJ Quik. This
| fascinating mix of veterans somehow handles everything from the crooked,
| crip-walking "Gangsta Like Me" to an unbelievably faithful and fun cover of
| the Time's "Cool" with Snoop singing and strutting just like Morris Day.
| Throwaway moments like the country song -- for real -- "My Medicine" are
| balanced by rich and honest moments like "Been Around tha World," where the
| rapper reminds listeners he's actually married and delivers a heartfelt "I'll
| be home soon" number. It's the one time his words are the focus, and while
| it's never clear how much Snoop actually wrote, the ghostwriters he's
| admitted to hiring have the thug script down and rarely disappoint. What is
| disappointing is the woefully long track list, the redundant numbers, and the
| trimming required to keep from drifting off before the majestic closer,
| "Can't Say Goodbye" with the Gap Band's Charlie Wilson, rolls around. Put a
| quarter of this loose, hangout session to the side and you've got a great
| argument that Snoop's transition from hungry gangster to laid-back celebrity
| and idea man is going much better than expected.
|
| Don't forget to support the artists! We did.
|
| Enjoy.
