Album notes |
On album number nine,
Snoop branches out a
bit, assuming executive
producer credits and
working as one-third of
the production team QDT
(along with Teddy Riley
and DJ Quik). While the
production hovers around
1970s R&B, soul, and
smoothed-out funk (with
conspicuous samples from
Marvin Gaye, the Isleys,
Brooklyn Dreams, and
Prince Phillip
Mitchell), there are
also a few curious
excursions into '80s
synth-pop ("Cool") and
even country music ("My
Medicine"). At the same
time, Snoop's lyrics are
all over the place. Over
the course of the
album's 21 tracks, he
goes from uber-boasting
on his fame and wealth
("Gangsta Like Me," "Staxx
in my Jeans") to
celebrity name-dropping
("Deez Hollywood
Nights") to seductive
talk-box crooning
("Sexual Eruption") and
groupie-love anthems
("Life of da Party,"
"Those Gurlz") to
bittersweet reminiscing
on his rise from the
hood ("Can't Say
Goodbye") and
dedications to his wife
and kids ("Been Around
tha World"). As the
title suggests, EGO
TRIPPIN' is all about
Mr. Calvin Broadus,
thusly the outing
containing just a
handful of guest spots
from Too Short, Raphael
Saadiq, Mistah F.A.B.,
and Charlie Wilson.
