[edit] Reception

Professional reviews:

  • The Source (2/00, p.95) - Included in The Source's "Top 10 Albums of the Year [1999]."
  • Rolling Stone (6/10/99, p.120) - out of 5 - Good - "Snoop's finest work since his debut album...full of seductive party jams that will keep heads bobbing through the summer. Snoop has returned to West Coast G-funk with the help of some old friends...like Dr. Dre and DJ Quik."
  • NME (5/29/99, p.37) - 8 out of 10 - "...the silken, sumptuous flow of yore is back, threading deluxe soul and full-bodied grooves....the cool drawl of Snoop...captivates, unveiling tales of love, thuggery, surviving and succeeding in the wild west....a certifiable return to form."
