Snoop Dogg new single

Hi all,

Well it sounds new to me:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=qSS_DY_z-Dc

His old school references are obvious in the sounds and his video, it makes me think a bit of Roger Troutman and the delightful arrogance of Rick James and Prince. I am not sure if I like this tune yet... but the melody is kind of addictive, tell me what you think. Your musical output is always appreciated

Reminds me a bit of Kleeer's Intimate Connection.

Sounds like he's trying to do the Akon/T-Pain thing.

Since when did Snoop start singing?

I like the "When Doves Cry" video reference.

Snoop is XTRA special for this clip



I love the song, actually pretty good.

Nice clip...the song is a grower...Snoop singing is
something 2 get used 2

Now,Prince...U see how good it is 2 be able 2 watch videos and stuff on the internet??? People are allready talking about this new song,be4 I didn't even know Snoop had a new single out.

That took me back to the old days!

You know the song is really called "Sexual Eruption", right? This is the cleaned-up version.
I like Snoop. He loves funk and embraces the music he was raised up on. I remember when he had that show on Mtv - he had a band. What rapper actually cares about having a band these days. Yeah, Jay-Z has done it but they are always there to make him look "bigger". Snoop is the one rapper that uses a band like he's part of it rather than as a prop. Plus, dude doesn't take himself too seriously. He can make fun of himself and not have to scour the internet threatening sites that have his pictures and videos posted...

The concept of the video is me in Prince/Michael Jackson mode...





He discusses the song Sexual Eruption and the album in the above clips. The album releases in March, Ego Trippin'

I been one of the most humblest guys in the game...fuck that. I'm ego trippin'.

I was thinking Roger Troutman all the way through. Shit sounds hot! Wonder when this album's gonna drop.

Okay, I can't front; the live version is hot!

The bass player is goin' off! I'm liking this song the more I hear it. Snoop may have a hit on his hands with this one.

Also, the editors let the word "f*ck" slip in this performance. Its during Snoop's rap when he says "go to the crib and exchange some f*ck faces" I caught it the second time I saw it. Censors are slippin'.

I love this video It reminds me of the early 1980's Cable TV ...USA Night Flight

Any Fans?

I'm wondering is there anyone who doesn't like this song? Usually you have at least one dissenting voice. Can it be orgers have finally found something we universally agree on?
