I dont understand, what is the appeal of snoop dog? He's lasted soo long. When he first came out, in the juice and gin era, he was cool. But 20 years later he's still making appearances on albums and everyone loves him? Why? His voice is annoying. He sounds like a sleazy pubescent car sales man. Even his rhymes suck. They all about pimp this and pimp that. And he's been balding now for a while, but he maintains braids which makes his forehead look like the back of a Toyota Echo.

Guess the same appeal applies to him that applies to pop 40 top of the pops music, its what you are told is popular. If you accept that, you buy into it until the next jelly belly flavor is concieved. Same goes for reality tv, just terrible and shoved down our throats. I follow the self applied rule of "you dont like it, dont do it", goes well with tv and music :)

Dr. Dre + Murder Trial = street cred
He gets good producers, his rhymes suck but his beats aren't the worst thing ever. He also makes the right appearances (Old School) to keep himself in the spotlight for just a bit longer.

His style is so very different from most other crappers. He was one of the first to hit it big, pushing the west-coast style farther into the spotlight.

It's like Elvis. Elvis absolutely blows. His music is terrible, but he was a pioneer and everyone still loves him.

As I look up at the sky
My mind starts trippin, a tear drops my eye
My body temperature falls
I'm shakin and they breakin tryin to save the Dogg
Pumpin on my chest and I'm screamin
I stop breathin, damn I see deamons
Dear God, I wonder can ya save me
I can't die Boo-Boo's bout to have my baby
I think it's too late for prayin, hold up
A voice spoke to me and it slowly started sayin
"Bring your lifestyle to me I'll make it better"
How long will I live?
"Eternal life and forever"
And will I be, the G that I was?
"I'll make your life better than you can imagine or even dreamed of
So relax your soul, let me take control
Close your eyes my son"
My eyes are closed

[Chorus:]

Murder... murder was the case that they gave me
Murder... murder was the case that they gave me

Like William Shatner and Bono, he is someone who has devolved into a parody of himself. Somehow, that is appealing to a lot of people I guess.

hahaha. When I was reading here about Snoop Dog, for some reason Coolio popped in my head and I searched for him to see if he was still active. I did a search and look what I found.

Snoop is everywhere.

He is balding out because he keeps those tight ass braids in all the time.
