Snoop Doggy Dogg - Tha Doggfather

Tha Doggfather is the sound of Snoop Doggy Dogg stepping into his legend. Released in 1996 as his second full length, the Double Platinum album shows Snoop navigating a turbulent era with confidence, cool headed delivery, and a deeper dive into melodic G Funk grooves. Daz Dillinger anchors the production with warm synth lines, rolling bass, and that unmistakable West Coast swing, while Snoop delivers some of the most relaxed but razor sharp flows of his early career.

Featuring essential cuts like “Doggfather” and his smooth rework of “Vapors,” the album captures Snoop at the moment he transitioned from breakout star to cultural fixture. The 2025 reissue brings this classic back to vinyl for the first time in five years, making it an ideal pickup for longtime fans, G Funk collectors, and anyone building a core West Coast hip hop section.
