Doggystyle

Doggystyle  is the debut studio album by American rapper Snoop Doggy Dogg.  It was released on November 23, 1993, by Death Row Records and Interscope Records.  The album was recorded and produced following Snoop’s appearances on Dr. Dre’s debut solo album The Chronic (1992), to which Snoop contributed significantly.  The West Coast style in hip-hop that he developed from Dre’s first album continued on Doggystyle.  Critics have praised Snoop Doggy Dogg for the lyrical “realism” that he delivers on the album and for his distinctive vocal flow.  Despite some mixed criticism of the album initially upon its release, Doggystyle earned recognition from many music critics as one of the most significant albums of the 1990s, as well as one of the most important hip-hop albums ever released.  By November 2015, the album had sold 7,000,000 copies in the United States, and over 11,000,000 copies worldwide.  (More from Wikipedia)
