Platinum through the doors
V12 rolling nigga goin' platinum

Got some honeys up in it
Say your pussy golden
But I only fuck with platinum chicks
Only talk platinum shit
Only swallow platinum spit
Speak my own slang-uage
Still I am the real-iest
Surrounded by Ciroc but your boy sipping Hennesey
Loves is a hospital and I was born in V.I.P.
Sick and there's no cure
Bad case of V.I.P.

Back in the club with my nephew Kell
Twenty-five girls in the Dogg cartel

Snoop should've made a video for this and released it as a single. I'm tired of people hatin' on Snoop. They know deep down inside he's a beast and one of the best (if not the best) rappers of all time. Show Snoop some love and buy this album!
@cdkj8573
Yeah i dont know...He hasnt truly had a hit since "drop it like its hot" and if you've ever seen him live you would change your mind. Doggystyle was literally one of the first albums i ever had and i love snoop, but he sucks live. Like real bad.
@ronjones3184
You tripping!!!!!!! He rap like he read a Dr Seuss book
@A1RPR1C3
I love how snoop comes in spitting quick right when the bass drops.
@Portboy
Holy shit - Snoop's first verse is INSANE. With that bass too, my god - sublime.
@blkmad77
Snoop is puttin another classic album together. This album is goin platinum!
@jfoulstone
i think the fact snoop went harder at it, just made it better than lap dance. but i must give Lex Leuger credit, he drops some killer beats!
@3PaC29
Snoop Dogg We want to listen to that type of songs and continue dropin hot songs . I hope its gonna be the best album ever for u snoop and for the fans :D Wish u all Da best
@yehimthatguy
i love how r. kelly can spit the game but yet also go smooth and get some r&b in it to
@ianlangille558
R.Kelly should've done more trap, he would've tore the genre a new one. Snoop too. Also, easily one of Lugers best beats!
