Snoop had then lain down with a hammer Doggystyle awesome debut album on which each track was really absolutely worth hearing. Since then I have every SDD album bought sight unseen - big mistake! Beginning "Tha Dogg Father" with few exceptions rather bland, so this CD shines here with only a single track, namely "Gin and Juice II" ... otherwise boring and cheap. Those looking for good rap has much better alternatives [2Pac, Dr. Dre, Eminem, Dogg Pound, Jr. Mafia to name but a few]
