Snoop Dogg has remained one of the game’s more omnipresent figures. As he’s busy celebrating the Los Angeles Lakers’ 17th NBA title, Tha Doggfather is prepping to release his 18th studio album, Take It From A G.
The Hip Hop OG shared a teaser for the LP via Instagram on Saturday (October 31). The clip featured shots of the newest mural in Los Angeles highlighting the Lakers victory and a purple and gold Low Rider affectionately called LAKE SHOW canvassing the streets.
“Man c’mon Magic, you said it. You called it,” Snoop says in the clip, referencing basketball Hall of Famer Magic Johnson. “King James and LeBron was double trouble!”
Can’t fault “Magic” for referencing the four-time NBA MVP twice after besting the Miami Heat in six games. Being around Snoop usually means you’re getting high somehow.
“Dippin’ slow, sittin’ low, tippin’ up the streets,” Snoop raps on the track. “Girl you know how it goes when you with a G. Ain’t no disrespect talk you talkin’ to a P, always been a boss I can put you on your feet. Real icon, I’m the biggest from the Beach. Making all this money, I can get it in my sleep. Might let back the top so she can feel the breeze. The game’s sold not to be told, you can’t take it from a G.”
Snoop’s 18th studio effort, the follow-up to 2019’s I Wanna Thank Me, is due out in December.
The D-O-Double-G’s love for all things purple and gold knows no bounds. Hours after the Lakers claimed the title, Snoop ventured to Mr. Cartoon to get Kobe Bryant inspired ink to honor the moment.
“Anything for the Lakers, everything for the Lakers, all things for the Lakers,” Snoop said. “Fuck the Clippers. That championship shit [is] something the Clippers don’t know nothing about!”
I liked Snoop’s last few albums, so looking forward to this
I was gonna say this too. Most people won’t admit it, but yes, his past few albums were solid.
You do you Snoop, there is jealousy because you are well liked, listened to and very much relevant.
I appreciate you.
Only idiots like Snoop. How can people have a tool like Poop Dogg work his whole career on destroying young black males, degrading black women down to mere ‘bitches and hoe’s’? He made millions off recruiting youngsters into gangs. So you like him, huh? Shame on you.
Cosign, they weren’t Doggystyle, but they were decent and listenable albums.
Snoop Dogg is always about the highest quantity of the lowest quality
I thought you was saying the opposite
To me it’s high quality
There was actually a typo with the title if anybody noticed. The real title of the album should read “Take it from a snitch.” In the end what does it matter. This album going to be a flop anyway. Snoop’s only saving grace is to publicly apologize and beg for a feature from King Tekashi.
Lmaoooo noome wants a whiny 60 year old hiphop album foh.
Look out for a master P, a Xzibit, a Busta Rhymes & a DMX feature on that new snoop album!
Snoop is a legend period! Still working and yes still putting out decent music after 30 years.
I guarentee he will rap about the same boring crap like all his other 20 albums
Probably be more recycled classics like Whats My Name 2020 and Tha Shiznit 2020 probably have Anderson Paak on there cause you know hes popular now r.i.p Nate Dogg Soopafly will probably have some wack beats on there also. Good Stuff.
God I wish he’d just retire…
Snoop is a goat and has achieved his goals twice fold. To work with a person with so much energy would be to funky.
