I’m actually impressed that Snoop “reincarnated” by co-operatig with someone as awesome as Jovi Rockwell, rather than pretending to be some sort of oldskool top-dogg. The infusion of humor is also super positive.

I know, I can’t stand it when I think it’s a black guy singing and it turns out to be a white Welshman or something…

It doesn’t matter who is doing it – fake accents are annoying.

As a fan of both Snoop Dogg and Major Lazer, I can safely say the OKness of this video doesn’t make up for the absolute blandness of that crappy crappy song.

He was Snoop Dogg for about 20 years. Hardly an everyday occurrence.

Consider for a moment, were you insulted when Mick Jagger, Bob Dylan, or UB40 did it? or when the Kinks did Calypso? Its a musical genre and performers communicate with it. Modest Menzinsky didn’t pretend to grow up in Italy for singing as Pagliacci.

Diplo’s a great producer for the most part, but he has beat that sample to death.

A genuine question here– is there any reason why he suddenly shifts into acting like he didn’t grow up speaking English? Seems weird and insulting to hear him suddenly start talking like he’s from some island.

good for him, exploring and creating. sorely miss the time bending, just behind and ahead of the beat deal, he does so well though

True maybe, but he is a kid from the burbs of California, too.

Too much commercialization of Jah.

Snoop is way to late to the party. Kids from the burbs in California have been producing better reggae than this for years.

I’m glad. I want snoop to do more Jamaican music. Reggae, Dub, even toss into the Kingston dancehall scene. His shizzle was getting crusty.

Diplo has been dry-humping that sample for years now. How many different artists and remixes has he used it on, five? Twenty?

Of course Major Lazer didn’t have a whole lot of work to do, as that fine riddim was laid down decades ago in Ken Boothe’s “Artibella”
