Tha Dogg Pound - W.A.W.G. (We All We Got) [CD]

West Coast hip-hop royalty, Tha Dogg Pound – the iconic duo of Daz Dillinger and Kurupt – are back with a brand new album, "W.A.W.G. (We All We Got)." Almost thirty years after their classic debut, Dogg Food, the group has come full circle by reuniting with the legendary record label and the hip-hop icon that introduced them to the world. Their latest album, We All We Got (W.A.W.G.), finds Daz and Kurupt back on Death Row Records and realigned with mentor and collaborator, Bigg Snoop Dogg. A homecoming that legions of fans have clamored for, it marks the first time Snoop has shepherded a Dogg Pound release since 2006's anthemic Cali Iz Active. "W.A.W.G." promises to be a powerful testament to the enduring legacy of Tha Dogg Pound and the unfadeable Death Row Records, captivating fans worldwide with their signature West Coast sound. While W.A.W.G. is a tight-knit affair, the featured guests are all too happy to join Tha Dogg Pound's gangsta party. Blxst adds his velvety croon to the silky-smooth "Need Some Space," while DaBaby channels his inner Angeleno on "After Hours." Sounding perfectly at home over the track's laconic funk, the Southern chart-topper insists he told Snoop, "Give me some West Coast shit," before adding, "Thug Life, I'm on that Death Row shit!" Ultimately, however, W.A.W.G. is anchored by our distinguished hosts. The album serves not only as a testament to Daz and Kurupt's eternal chemistry, but also to the stunning potential that a new era of Death Row holds. Tha Dogg Pound may only have each other, but on this evidence, that's all they'll ever need.
