Notes & Personnel Info |  | In the world of hip-hop, when Snoop Dogg barks, people listen. The former Calvin Broadus earned this E.F. Hutton-like status simply by being one of the most distinctive original rappers not just on the West Coast, but anywhere. So a compilation featuring artists hand-picked for Snoop's own Doggy Style label should be an attractive proposition to any rap aficionado. Snoop takes a hands-on approach here, putting in guest appearances on nearly all of the disc's 20 tracks. While there's no denying the appeal of the Doggfather's style and star power, he didn't choose to feature these artists for nothing; Mr. Kane, E-White, LaToiya Williams, et al, prove themselves fully capable of handling the spotlight's unswerving glow. Their forceful, confident rhyming skills do their mentor proud throughout DOGGY STYLE ALL STARS. | | In the world of hip-hop, when Snoop Dogg barks, people listen.
