(7 Customer Reviews)
Though Ice-T is credited with creating gangsta rap, and the original N.W.A. brought it to the forefront of the pop culture, it was Snoop Dogg that took the genre to the next level with his debut album DOGGYSTYLE. Snoop's decision to transfer from the Suge Knight-owned Death Row Records to the Master P-owned No Limit had a significant effect on the sound of his music.
However, his fifth album, THA LAST MEAL, returns Snoop to the funk-inspired sound that made his debut a classic. "Snoop Dogg (What's My Name Part. 2)," with its Timbaland-produced background, re-establishes Snoop as the G-funk king. The posse cut "Set it Off," which features Ice Cube, MC Ren, Nate Dogg, and the Lady of Rage, highlights Snoop's laid-back flow and skilled lyrical style. Check out "True Lies" for that bouncy old Snoop Dogg/Dr. Dre feel.

Rolling Stone (1/18/01, p.56) - 3.5 stars out of 5 - "...[His] strongest album since DOGGYSTYLE....Snoop's chronic-marinated flow, all menthol-cool and deadpan droop, sounds as smooth as ever..." Spin (3/01, p.145) - 6 out of 10 - "...This MEAL finds him riding the Dre cache, trying to convince us he's still 'G'ed-up from the feet up'....Timbaland stuttering out the obvious singles...but Dre's laconic thumps-by-the-pound anchor most of the album..." Vibe (2/01, pp.133-4) - 3.5 discs out of 5 - "...Deeply steeped in P-funkology....these days, Snoop's songs are simply fun to listen to....nothing groundbreaking, just good solid Snoop-rap..."

NOT THA LAST THIS IS A VERY GOOD ALBUM, IN FACT I WAS SURPRISED. WHEN I FIRST HEARD "SNOOP DOGG" ON THE RADIO I THOUGHT THE ALBUM WOULD JUST BE AVERAGE, BUT IT SURPASED MY EXPECTATIONS, SONGS LIKE "SET IT OFF, LAY LOW, AND LOOSIN CONTROL, AND WRONG IDEA" PROVE MY POINT.

So-so, but still waiting on classic I know that I'm not the only one who is waiting for Snoop to come with a classic that tops Doggystyle. On Doggystyle, Snoop has a more energetic flow, one that you can immediately tell doesn't show up on any of his later works. But we all luv Snoop, and know he can still bring the best sht, just see "Hennesy and Buddha", produced by Dre. Personally, I think that Dre and Snoop should hook up and do a full album 2gether again, I would sht my pants, and it would blow us all away, wouldn't it?

Snoop Dogg: The Last Meal This album goes to show everybody that Snoop Dogg has never fallen off but has just got better over the years. The bangers on this CD would have to be songs like "Stacey Adams", "Lay Low", "True Lies" and "Set It Off" which you'll hear bumping out of a lot of cars this coming summer. Snoop Dogg brings the L.B.C. flow and the summertime hits with this album. If you haven't picked this up you should quickly. Submitted by a reviewer (Andover,MA) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
