Idk how much this counts but Snoop for a time after Dre left Death Row

 

[Elzo69Renaissance]

Snoop

Project Pat

had the biggest record of his career like a decade after leaving Death Row

 

[Elzo69Renaissance]

Chingy

 

[Elzo69Renaissance]

Guru

 

[Chi-Town B]

I disagree with Snoop, he stayed dropping hits when he left Death Row and always been popular

 

[1/2]

had the biggest record of his career like a decade after leaving Death Row

his sound did take a dip for a min right after tho

all his no limit shit was dope, but it wasnt death row snoop

 

[GOAT]

Dre & Snoop together is a whole different animal than solo snoop

Parrish Smith had a dry spell when EPMD broke up.

When they broke up, Erick Sermon had Redman and Keith Murray, Parrish Smith had Das EFX (It seems that K-Solo got lost in the shuffle).

After the break up neither Parrish Smith nor Das EFX made any hits.

The intro to "No Limit: Top Dogg" is my shit. Matter of fact bout to bump that now.

Also "Tha Last Meal" is a top 5 Snoop album in my personal record book.

Yeah but if we're being honest with each other, Doggystyle was his best album.

 

[DMorgan]

Juvenile easily.

He didn't need cash money but Juvie NEEDED Manny Fresh!!

I agree from a pure rap album notion. I'd nominate R&G as his magnun opus.

Either Blue Carpet Treatment or Last Meal is his 2nd best after Doggystyle imo.


I swear I played this joint like 6/7 times straight when I brought BCT.

BCT was such a breath of fresh air. He murdered that intro.

But imo there in no body of work as complete as 'R&G' in his catalog. A lot of his albums feel half-assed.

The Last Meal and the Blue Carpet Treatment were dope albums too.
