Starting point is 00:00:03 Not only did we have Ice Cube release his single for his Man Down album all the way back as far as who's actual date? I think it was just last year. I mean, not last year. I think it was last week. I don't think it was that long ago. Okay, it's my ego, which is under Lynch Mob Records. What type of name? Hitmaker Distro released October 18th, 2024, right?
Starting point is 00:00:33 November 1st, 2024, we now have the first single from Snoop Dog titled Gorgeous featuring Janae Aiko. Now,
Starting point is 00:00:44 I don't promote violence. All I'm saying is if Big Sean started to squabble, I want to be upset. You know, I think certain people in the industry
Starting point is 00:00:57 understand the presence of Janae Aiko and they try to get that. through in any way possible right so you know that's just me being messy with that being said let's get into the actual reason for me covering this so snoop dog which some will call one of the greatest hip-hop artists of all time actually everybody was said that so i was just joking with that uh having his
Starting point is 00:01:24 most acclaimed album being doggy style that came out in nineteen ninety three goodness i wasn't even thought of back then like it wasn't even a thought to have me back in 1993 like that is insane anyways so I was just talking about how old snoop dog was because I mean that was before I was even born like way before like goodness like how old is this man hold oh I got looked this up because this is actually Snoop dog age oh he's 53 that's not too crazy I mean it's still old but it's not it's not too crazy I thought I was about to see like 60 or 70 or something that's like you know I can't do math Anyways, this man's putting out a missionary album with Dr. Dre in his first full album with Dr. Dre since Doggy Style, which came out in 1993. Goodness. So people are calling it a sequel to Doggy Style, even though when you go to Snoop Dog, I mean, he has a lot of different albums.
Starting point is 00:02:28 So to call it a sequel, I don't know if he's come out and said it's a sequel to Doggy Style. he just yeah because he has other albums out i mean as doggy style the 30th anniversary snoop cube and 40 um the what's the the the mount westmore i remember covering that i was like what is this gangster grills bodeur this man puts out music consistently make america crib again oh that's i wonder what that's playing off of um so yeah this man has a lot of music dating all the way back till 2004 2003 uh well dynastow came out in 1993 so that can't be right i think back then a lot of music wasn't really on the internet like it was in physical copy because the internet didn't exist right so it's kind of hard to get an inclination of when he first started
Starting point is 00:03:32 i would just say the 90s if you watch the n wa documentary you can probably tell that snoo Snoop Dog has been around for a while because he was, you know, hanging out with Biggie and Tupac and now went in 2024 and this man is still putting out music. So, um, longevity is unprecedented. So with the actual production of missionary, Dr. Dre is handling all the production, all the production, basically talking about cohesion and quality. And then, you know, when it comes to Dr. Dre, when it comes to Snoop Dog, that's why people are saying it's a sequel to Doggy style because of course, that was the first collaboration the full album collaboration so whenever you have missionary also being a full album collaboration between dr dr dr dry and snoop dog then this is probably going to be one of the more pivotal albums of 2024 now when everybody in the mama as far as the hip-hop side of things
Starting point is 00:04:30 is flopping left and right you love your o gs to come back and remind you that our music is ever standing the test of time so when snoop dog comes back obviously is going to make people go back to his old music and then when you have his uh notable collaborations as far as his album being m&m 50 sin jelly rose steen bj the chicago of course jane aiko with the single out now on all dsps titled gorgeous mind you and then um then you have some else i was wanting into oh and then you had his 22 boudor boudre is b o d r i think it's bauder you know i don't know um marking his return to death row
Starting point is 00:05:19 records which he now owns basically a full circle moment as far as his upbringing and hip hop as far as being under the tutelage of dr dr dr and of course the one and only shook night so um snoop dog has teased this project he is very excited for the missionary album So with that being said, I think this is an interesting project from the simple fact that if you have Dr. J on the entire body of work as far as production, and then you have him actually rapping, I think it's going to give that nostalgia-like effect to people who are already fans of a Snoop Dog, of a Ice Cube, like Ice Cube putting out his Man Down album, Snoop Dog putting out his missionary album. is the reason why throughout this segment
Starting point is 00:06:06 I've named Job Tupac NWA Shug Night like all of this is coming back into fruition as far as a
Starting point is 00:06:15 full circle moment with them still being relevant in 2024 when they've been putting out music since the 90s like that is
Starting point is 00:06:24 admirable and admirable as far as longevity in the way that you just consistently can put out content and people just consume it.
Starting point is 00:06:37 That is ultimately the epitome of what you want as an artist. People to forever love your music for the effort that you put into it. Not some of this lackadaisical freestyle and overbeats and thinking people are going to take you serious. Shout out to Lil Uzi verse Eternal Take 2, but actually putting effort into your music to the point where people can see the amount of effort you put into it. then supports you for the long haul because too often people take the consumption for granted
Starting point is 00:07:10 if somebody supports you and your first thought is well they're supposed to support me i'm dope like i'm the coolest thing walking like i don't have to upgrade at all like i can just keep half you know what and they keep supporting me at some point that's going to taper off because you're not evolving to give your supporters a better product. So Snoop Dog, Ice Cube throughout their career has done and diversify their portfolio to a point where their longevity is everlasting because there's so many different buckets they can go into as far as how to impact the masses. Going in one field, even when you're half, you know, wading it.
Starting point is 00:07:55 And then thinking that that's going to last with no other plan as far as how you're you're diversifying your portfolio just ultimately means you're taking your supporting base for granted. So I don't know, man. That's what I wanted to get into because, you know, just seeing Snoop Dog and seeing Ice Cube still being relevant. I mean, I don't know. Do people understand?
Starting point is 00:08:18 Like, that's like what LeBron's doing right now in the NBA. That's basically what Snoop Dog, Ice Cube is currently doing in the music landscape. Now, of course, the argument is probably going to be, well, they're not going to chart, which they probably won't i ain't go lie they probably won't chart too high with these albums or tracks but you know they're still going to sell to the core audience now as far as the popular audience that's a whole another discussion but as far as people still talking about it in the mainstream whether it charts or not to the pop culture is still pivotal in the longevity in the overall legacy of a snoop dog and of ice cube so gorgeous featuring janea
Starting point is 00:09:00 Ako is out now, which is ultimately the lead single for the missionary album that is set to come out December 13th, 2024. So with that being said, click my link to me in my bio. Let me know one of my social medias. What do you think about Snoop Dog putting out his missionary album, which is a collaborative project with Dr. Dre? And what are you most looking forward to with this album? And also, what do you think is the biggest thing that keeps legends? icons like legend uh like snoop dog and like ice cube relevant
