Photographer: Piotr Sikora. Nate Dogg reunites with original gangsta, cousin and ex-213 bandmate Snoop Dogg on this tuneful excursion through the underbelly of West Coast gangstas and playas. Nate has a smooth if unspectacular voice, and the melody is roughed up by the lyrical content, which covers familiar gangsta territory in an unfamiliar way. He's also helped out by Lil Mo, Xzibit, the ubiquitous Ludacris, Dr Dre, and Kurupt, among others, who keep the cuts from falling into musical wallpaper territory with an array of hard lyrics that'll get under your skin in a most exquisite way after a couple of hearings. "Your Woman Has Just Been Sighted" has a nice quote from Tenor Saw's reggae hit "Ring the Alarm," while "Another Short Story" is a smooth soul foray into a failed love affair that provides a breather from the otherwise constant banging and hustling chronicled on the rest of the album. | See an error?
