    The West Coast stalwart's ninth album doesn't entirely make good on 'Seduction''s wacky promise. [Apr 2008, p.82]

    While the Neptunes' 'Sets Up' fits nicely alongside tracks like a nearly note-for-note cover of the Time's 'Cool,' the album ultimately suffers from both sonic and lyrical inconsistency--to say nothing of the misleadingly dark cover art.

    Tracks like "Press Play" feature booming-enough backings, but even in the record's funkiest moments, like the left-field Prince homage "Cool," Snoop holds back.
  5. NOW Magazine
    60
    Somewhere along the way he must have forgotten about that--there are a handful of collaborators--but the overall theme of gleeful self-indulgence remains.

    Ego Trippin' is a subdued comeback from this once hot rapper.

    Ok, if you want this album to be like Doggystyle, then dont **** when its not. I think critics cant keep up with Snoop, all his albums areOk, if you want this album to be like Doggystyle, then dont **** when its not. I think critics cant keep up with Snoop, all his albums are rated poorly, yet somehow he is critically acclaimed and has maintained a steady following since his first album....metacritic is useless in actually assessing music it seems.Songs like Press Play are very good, some filler like ALL artists....… Full Review »
