DJ SNOOPADELIC IN CONCERT:
There’s nothing Snoop Dogg can’t do—from releasing genre-defining hip hop hits like “What’s My Name?” and “Drop It Like It’s Hot” to lending his laid-back charm to film and TV projects like Weeds and Dogg After Dark. In 2012, the SoCal native added DJing to his long list of accomplishments under the moniker DJ Snoopadelic, and he’s been unleashing epic sets for fans ever since. Spinning his favorite R&B classics from back in the day as well as his own hits ranging from his G-Funk breakout tracks to his recent smooth grooves, Tha Dogg Father gets crowds pumped with bumping beats while he serves as the master of ceremonies. Fans never know what famous rappers might show up to lay down a verse when Snoop is on the ones and twos. The iconic MC may even step out from behind his DJ rig to bust a rhyme on perennial favorites like “Gin & Juice” or “The Next Episode”. No matter what he has planned for the evening, fans can count on DJ Snoopadelic to pump out the jams and make the club smoking hot—for rizzle!
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Calvin Cordozar Broadus, Jr. (better known to the world as Snoop Dogg) was born in Long Beach, CA in 1971. As a teenager the prodigious rapper began to collaborate with his cousins and friends in the LBC hip hop collective 213. As luck would have it, Dr. Dre was looking for an MC to collaborate with when he heard a copy of 213’s mix tape. The iconic producer was so impressed that he invited Snoop to audition before featuring the young rapper extensively on his 1992 debut The Chronic. The following year, Dre launched Snoop’s solo career by producing the rapper’s 4x Platinum debut Doggystyle. Realizing the dangers of gangster affiliations following the death of close friend Tupac Shakur, Snoop cultivated a smoother, party-oriented style starting with 1996’s Tha Dogg Father. Completing his transition from gangster to pimp, he scored his first number one single in 2004 with The Neptunes-produced “Drop It Like It’s Hot”. He then added disc jockey to his list of skills with the debut of alter ego DJ Snoopadelic on the 2012 compilation Loose Joints, which brought banging beats to his fans in a whole new way. Whether he’s spinning, spitting, or just straight up chilling, Snoop Dogg’s boisterous persona means fans are in for a great time whenever he takes the stage.
The only thing I would change is to have Snoop Dogg perform for the whole show rather than DJ, but he put on a good show playing great music and kept the crowd entertained.
He did not perform. He only DJ'd for like 2 hours. The last part of the DJ set he only played rock songs and the audience kept booing. Glad tickets were cheap, otherwise it would not have been worth it to go.
The show was amazing, the crowd was very chill and extremely cool to be around. I loved how all forms of life were able to come together and were generally nice towards each other/helped each other out. Snoop Dogg was very interactive with us, which in my opinion made the show even cooler. If you're a fan of Snoop Dogg go to his concert! If it is a show that requires standing, I suggest you get to the venue early so you can avoid any long line that might wrap around the block and be in the front row.
The review below must not know what a DJ is... We saw Snoop DJ and is was VERY cool. He played a bigger variety of songs than I anticipated. From the stage behind the DJ table, he sang along with the crowd on the great parts (we were all singing out loud) and he rapped some of his own favorite parts of various songs, and generally just seemed to be loving it all. Playing his favorite songs for us and interacting to come degree with the crowd... it really just felt like we were all hanging out with Snoop. No, he did not PERFORM- he DJ'd. Because that is what we came to see, and paid to see, we were NOT disappointed!
Local rappers performed and the dj kept stalling for Snoop who didn't show up til an hour and a half after the show started. Then all he did was play tunes on his laptop. I could've stayed home and watched my son do that! I go to watch performers PERFORM. Thought it was too good to be true... And it was
