Critic Reviews
Show All-
The Source
Tension based on geography were at an all time high showed that his talent was above the petty beefs and could shine on any front.

Sputnik Music
There's really no reason to pick it up and let the dust leave the CD case, although it would certainly do the dust favor.
-
All Music
Signing to No Limit might have preserved Snoop Dogg's street cred, but it ruined his creativity.
-
AV Club
It's possible that Dogg will yet fulfill the boundless promise he displayed on The Chronic and Doggystyle. This doesn't.
-
Pandora
Record a long-winded, monotonous album, filled with "interpolations" of '80s soul and rap songs, and loaded with No Limit cameos.
-
Robert Christgau
Musically, however, this is one of No Limit's strongest albums.
-
Hip Hop Debate
However, it dam sure wasn’t his worst (cough) Tha Doggfather!
-
Slacker
Master P is a master marketer, and he knows how to reshape everyone on his roster into good No Limit soldiers. And that's precisely what Snoop Dogg is.

Hip Hop Isn't Dead
Stuffed to the gills with incomplete instrumentals, trite gangsta tales (which, admittedly, have always been Snoop's bread and butter), and far more guest appearances than can legally appear in the same room without violating fire safety codes.
