Snoop Dogg has stoked the reunion fires in reference to a potential new Eastsidaz album after he reunited with Goldie Loc and Tray Deee during a recent performance.
On Friday (June 2), Tha Doggfather posted a video on Instagram of the legendary West Coast group performing “Another Day” from their debut album Snoop Dogg Presents: Tha Eastsidaz which was released in 2000.

The last time all three rappers appeared same track was on 2021’s “Hood Creeps Out at Night,” per Complex. While the video taps into a variety of scary movie wrapped into one package, the song samples Whodini’s 1984 hit, “Freaks Come Out At Night.”
In 2009, Tray Deee, who was serving a 12-year prison sentence for attempted murder at the time, spoke about Tha Eastsidaz breakup and how he was back in touch with Snoop.
“I finally enjoyed a warm conversation with Snoop Dogg after over five years of no communication whatsoever,” said Tray Deee. “We agreed to let the past go like water under the proverbial bridge and we even shared a few genuine laughs…Now Goldie Loc, he has never exhibited any degree of loyalty toward me.”
He continued: “I would hope that Snoop Dogg and I could recapture that vibe that we once shared, and salvage the wonderful history that we created. It’s his call at this point. Barring some extraordinary events transpiring between now and my release, I have no interest of fuckin’ with Goldie Loc ever again – except to be compensated by him for prominently featured on his [Still Eastsidin’] CD.”

Tha Eastsidaz were formed in 2000. As a rap collective, they released two albums including the platinum-selling Snoop Dogg Presents: Tha Eastsidaz in 2000, and Duces ‘n Trayz: The Old Fashioned Way in 2001.
Songs from Snoop Dogg Presents: Tha Eastsidaz appeared in hood classics such as Baby Boy and The Wash. The trio have had issues in the past but it appears it’s all water under the bridge now.
