    Snoop Dogg is back with one of his greatest cds. If you dont like snoops other works you probably wont like this album. This album really is a masterpiece

    One of the few CD's i can listen to without pressing "SKIP" every other song. Well put together and generally entertaining

    that funkadelic gangster sound really puts this cd up there! Snoop redefines gangster in this cd! the only thing i dont like bout the album is that snoop went a lil bit too commercial. Justin on your album snoop! WHY?

    Really good rap album with a lot of pop and r&b elements. Pharell is also here and I love this album.

    As always, Snoop oozes charisma, and he possesses one of rap's most irresistible voices, but R&G makes it clearer than ever that he has nothing to say, no matter how infectiously he says it.

    If you don't mind flicking the fast-forward, there's enough hot shizzle to keep you returning for more. [20 Nov 2004, p.57]

    R&G begs for a little more R and some cleverer G -- or, if Snoop really wanted to be bold, no G at all.
