    I actually kinda dig it! I think he should tone the fake jamaican accent down a bit though.

    Snoop has officially done everything now. I'm actually surprised he hasn't done any reggae before now.

    If he really wants to milk more money out of his music career, this isn't the genre he should be going for...

    as far as reggae goes, not so good. Interesting though, was wondering what would come of Snoop when he recently visited Jamaica and attended a Nyabinghi Ises ( a gathering of Rastas) I'll admit though, better than when Lil Wayne made a fake ass Reggae track... don't know what the fuck Sizzla was thinking working with that fruit, especially after hearing Wayne's fake ass patois bullshit!


    yeah cuz reggae artists don't make money :rolleyes:

    ^^ thats cuz snoop actually can pull it off a bit. Wayne just sounded like a dildo.

    Nope, Wayne sort of sounded Jamaican on his reggae songs....Snoop Didn't.
    Also everyone was going at Cudi when he made and rock/r&b album but snoop get a pass for some reason lol

    nope, he's still a rapper.

    So sounding Jamaican is the only thing that matters when making reggae? Snoop just made a doper song in my opinion. Something I could def smoke out to whereas waynes was just ehhh...

    Theres nothin wrong with people branching out into different genres. People should be able to make whatever music they want as its just that, music.

    Ugh, I listened to 30 seconds of that and couldn't bear it anymore. Zero talent. I wasn't able to make out a single word that whole time.

    Snoops lyrics and rhymes are pretty dope to. I can't get into waynes lyrics, way to simple and he rhymes words with exactly the same words way to much. not that creative. but thats just like, my opinionn, man.

    Now if you REALLY wanna laugh, peep the second verse.:laughing::laughing::laughing::laughing:

    Though I actually do like the use of the autotune in the chorus, 2002-2003 it was still being used infrequently, and much more creatively applied. 1:15
