Doggystyle
Snoop Dogg

1993 Snoop was really into weed, and I don't think that's changed. He was also pretty misogynistic and into hard gang culture, but 1993 Snoop also made great music about it all. Who'd have thought he'd end up the unofficial U.S. Olympic mascot and best buds with Martha Stewart? Anyway, outside of the often unrelated skits I hate that were so prevalent with this type of album, it's a great record. It isn't repetitive and doesn't drag on. The songs are catchy as hell with good musical hooks and arrangements.
