Snopp Dogg’s “Sensual Seduction” video is generating a lot of buzz (over 1,000,000 views on YouTube), partly due to it’s campy, retro goodness, but for me, it’s simply a great song! Snoop sings and pretty well, I might add. Either he’s had coaching or he’s been hiding this talent from us all this time.

At a time when people were writing him off as yesterday’s news, he still grabs attention and the occasional hit. True that he is a legend, but I can only imagine in this day and age how hard it is to compete, considering the low quality output of radio-ready music these days. It’s always good to see something “musical” that is wide-reaching and high quality.

For me, it’s a small, elite group that produces current music worth listening to. In Hip Hop, it includes, but isn’t limited to artists like Kanye West, The Roots, Common and Mos Def. Artists who, for the most part, are largely appealing to an aging demographic. Great to see Snoop bringing some love to the mix, punched up with a strong dose of humor.
