“W.A.W.G. (We All We Bought)” Marks Tha Dogg Pound’s Triumphant Return to Dying Row Information (Album Evaluate)


Lengthy Seashore, California emcee/producer Daz Dillinger & Philadelphia, Pennsylvania emcee Kurupt collectively referred to as Tha Dogg Pound returning to Dying Row Information for his or her ninth LP. I actually shouldn’t should say a lot about their 1995 full-length debut Dogg Meals because it’s widely known as one of many final nice albums that Dying Row ever put out, however their comeback effort DPG 4 Life from a couple of years in the past was simply their worst because of being suffering from cheesy pop rap tunes. Nonetheless, I used to be sure W.A.W.G. (We All We Bought) needed to be the duo’s true return to kind.

After the intro, the primary tune “Smoke Up” that includes Snoop Dogg produced by Rick Rock is that this banging g-funk opener for all of the west coast heads to gentle one as much as whereas the title observe that includes Tha Eastsidaz unites each teams collectively for the primary time speaking about having solely one another. “Imma Dogg” takes the g-funk route as soon as once more due to DJ Battlecat reminding themselves of the Doggs they’re main into “Want Some House” speaking about needing their house over a cloudy Mike & Keys instrumental.

“Favourite Coloration Blue” is that this playful membership banger devoted to their roots as Crips whereas “Inside Her” picks up from there with a calming out pop rap jam. “Home Celebration” that includes Snoop Dogg pulls inspiration from Zapp a bit speaking about going to the golf equipment, however then “After Hours” that includes DaBaby & Snoop Dogg warmly expresses their need for all of it though my solely grievance about it being DaBaby’s pointless verse initially.

The digital influences on “LA Type of Love” really feel outdated regardless of the west coast lyricism whereas “Grown Up” that includes Snoop Dogg heading for a fragile lure course to the beat speaking about everybody desirous to be grown. “The Weekend” turns the g-funk influences again up courtesy of Soopafly making time for his or her companions whereas “At all times on My Thoughts” that includes Snoop Dogg bouncily refuses to surrender. “Who da Hardest?” by the N’Matez & Snoop Dogg ends the album leaping over a DJ Premier instrumental flexing their prowesses.

Dogg Pound actually couldn’t fumble on W.A.W.G. (We All We Bought) very similar to they did with DPG 4 Life a couple of years in the past particularly because it’s their first album of newly recorded materials to be launched via Dying Row in virtually 3 many years & fortunately, Snoop helps give Daz & Kurupt their greatest providing shortly. They return to their roots stylistically on high of demonstrating their development after being within the sport so lengthy, solely having one another on the finish of the day.
