Binding: Audio CDEAN: 0728706300223 Format: Enhanced, Explicit Lyrics, Original recording reissued, Original recording remastered Label: Death Row Koch Manufacturer: Death Row Koch MPN: 63002 Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Death Row Koch Release Date: May 22, 2001 Studio: Death Row Koch Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Produced by the infamous Dr. Dre with assistance from Mr. Suge Knight, Doggy Style was the first solo outing by Calvin Broadus a.k.a. Snoop Doggy Dog. Incorporating a straight gangsta vibe into the deep funk grooves pioneered by George Clinton and his Parliament-Funkadelic ensemble, Snoop and Dre dogmatically invent the "G-Funk" aesthetic. Espousing an irreverent dope, bitches, and guns mentality, Doggy Style garnered the Parental Advisory for explicit lyrics it sorely deserved. Still, Snoop's lazy-yet-acrobatic rap/drawl is distinctive and undeniably entertaining. With additional vocals from Tha Dogg Pound (Nate Dogg, Warren G, Kurupt, and Dat Nigger Daz), this disc is deceptively professional and musically quite slick. "Murder Was The Case" is practically an inner-city classic, while "Ain't No Fun" is another blunted, urban-rap anthem. Woof! --Mitch Myers Album Description: Death Row Records. Digitally remastered, repackaged & enhanced classic. Enhanced portion features the classic video What's My Name. Packaged in a jewel box in a slipcase. 2001 reissue. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - This cannot be the same guy whose released crap like Paid tha Cost and R&GGod damn it, it's just beyond my belief as to how someone who can drop a straight classic from top to bottom like this here, can then later became so terrible. Okay, so comparing everything else his done to this might be a bit harsh but he changed his style completely after Deathrow Records. Its one hell of a shame considering how talented he can be, proven by albums like this. There is seriously, absolutely no disappointments on this album to speak of. Every track, even the ones that don't ...

Rating: - Doggystyle tells you to get down on the floor.1993 was a magical year. It included two of the most influential pieces of art on the life of this young elf, Doggystyle, and Death Ring. It's amazing to think that Snoop was only 19 while making this classic on the heels of his watershed appearance in "Nuthin But a G Thing." There are really no definite weak spots in the album. And how many rap albums can you say that about? Usually, you're looking at two or three quality track, and the rest is complete filler. Obviously, there are the hits, but ...

It speeds through 55 minutes of constant talk as if on a suicide hot line"--Rolling Stone. With the singles "Who Am I (What's My Name)?" and "Gin and Juice," Snoop Dogg's 1993 debut, Doggystyle, not only introduced the world to gangsta rap and West Coast hip hop, but his provocative street rhymes (involving sex, dope, and violence) sparked arguments for censorship and labeling in the recording ...
