  • Junk Mail: Snoop Dogg, 'BUSH' Album Review

    Snoop Dogg’s new Pharrell-produced album BUSH has arrived. Although he adopted the monikers Snoop Lion and Snoopzilla for his past few projects, he’s back as Snoop Dogg for this effort, despite the fact that album isn’t very rap heavy. With Pharrell helming the production, I was expecting a sound closer to “Beautiful” and “Drop It Like It’s Hot,” however Snoop turned BUSH into a tribute to the funk and R&B of the ‘70s and channeled the spirit of an OG. I applaud the album for its cohesion, but only a few songs really grabbed me. I definitely see this as more of a background album for chilling out than for getting hyped or dissecting lyrically. What did you guys think?
