Snoop Dogg's blessed us with countless hit records over the course of his career. Although most can agree that Doggystyle showcased Snoop's skills as an emcee at its peak, he's still has a lot of classic hits in his catalog. Back in 2004, the rapper released his album R&G (Rhythm & Gangsta): The Masterpiece after signing a deal with Pharrell's Star Trak label. The project spawned the singles "Drop It Like It's Hot," but one single that gets overlooked from that era of Snoop Dogg is "Let's Get Blown."
For this week's #TBT, we bring it back fourteen years to Snoop Dogg's single, "Let's Get Blown." The record features vocals from Pharrell Williams who handles hook duties on the song. Pharrell also helped produced the song with The Neptunes who deliver bring a smooth, soulful sound with a hint of funk.
Peep Snoop Dogg's "Let's Get Blown" below for this week's #TBT.
Quotable Lyrics
I'm tryna put my bid in
Nah, I'm just kidding, come on ma', get in
And don't ask where we going, pimping and hoeing
Drink pouring and weed blowing, you know it come on
