- Wow, what's going on here? (2 Stars)Bottom line: There is no such thing as a Best of Snoop Dogg CD when tracks like Gin & Juice, Murder Was the Case, and Who Am I? (to name only a few) are OMITTED. The previous two reviews for this so-called greatest hits CD are on-point; try to imagine a Nas greatest hits CD without any Illmatic tracks. Try to imagine there being a Wu-Tang Clan greatest hits CD without any tracks from Enter The Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers. Now, try and explain why there IS actually a Best of Snoop Dogg CD with no tracks from Doggystyle, or even Tha Doggfather.
Sure, there are some decent tracks here, but not including any tracks from the Death Row era is inexcusable. This compilation is an insult to Snoop's oldest fans and should never have seen the light of day.

- Not that badI don't know whats wrong with these people. This is a pretty good collection of snoop dogg songs. First off, if you want all of his old stuff he does have another collection of songs. It's called Death Row: Snoop Doggy Dogg's Greatest Hits. And like westcoastgdup said thats all death row. Do you guys really think Suge Knight would let Snoop put all of that material on this album after all the beef they have been through. Stll A G Thang, Wrong Idea, B*tch Please, and Lay Low are all good songs. But why I don't give it five stars is because he dosn't have Pump Yo Breaks, anything from tha Eastsidaz, or some stuff he did with Dre after death row like the wash or On the Blvd. because Snoop had some input on those songs.(I'm not gonna say the next episode or still Dre because those are Dre songs and they come on his album the Chronic 2001).But instead he puts From Tha Chuuch to Tha Palace and Beautiful,which are the worse snoop dogg songs. All these songs are from Priority Records and No Limit. Why do you think he dosn't have Drop It Like It's Hot or Lets Get Blown. Because now he's on Geffen records and Star Track records. Come on people you call yourself Snoop Dogg fans.

- "Guess who's back in the #$&!* house".....Do I have to ask the obvious question? Well......do I? Where are the tracks from "Doggystyle"??? Where are his BEST known songs??? I know this probably has something to do with label issues, but c'mon. Having a "Best Of" from Snoop Dogg without the "Doggystyle" tracks, is like Dr. Dre having a "Greatest Hits" without anything from "The Chronic"! Maybe this should have been called "Best of the Priority Years" instead. On the positive side there's still some dope tracks here, but I gots to have my "Gin And Juice". Bow-wow-wow.

- This Could Have Been Something!I know people are saying that you can't have a Snoop Doggs greatest hits album without having any of his earlier Death Row hits, but you have to understand that Snoop doesn't own the rights to those songs. Suge Knight owns the rights, thus is the reason why he released a greatest hits album covering Snoops Death Row days. If you really think about it, Snoop was known as Snoop Doggy Dogg when he was with the Row. When Master P signed him to No Limit, he shortened his name to Snoop Dogg. So theoretically this is the best of Snoop Dogg (Post Death Row). However, I don't agree with a lot of the songs that were choosen for this album. Songs like Gin & Juice II, Woof, Down For My N_____, The One & Only and a few others were just average tracks in my mind. Some noticable tracks missing from this album are Y'all Gone Miss Me, Go Away, Snoop World, Ballin', My Heat Goes Boom, Doggz Gonna Get Ya, etc. I don't know if I want to say this was a waste of an album, but if Priority wanted to release a Best of Snoop Dogg, I think they really should have put his best work on a disc instead of filling it with only half and the rest with average tracks. This album could have been 4 stars instead of 3.

- Snoop doggFirst off this is The Best of Snoop Dogg not Snoop Doggy Dogg so of course there won't be any of the old tracks on this. If you want the best of Snoop Doggy Dogg go get Death Row's Snoop Doggy Dogg's Greatest Hits.
Anyway this is for any fan of Snoop it has all his best songs from his No Limit released albums with the hits Lay Low, Still A G Thang, Woof!, B Please, From Tha Chuuuch To Da Palace, Loosen Control, Beautiful, and What's My Name Pt.2 plus plenty of over great songs. With no doubt Snoop Dogg can't compare to the classic Snoop Doggy Dogg but Snoop changed and we can't do anything about it.
Anyway if you are a fan of the new Snoop than this is definitely for you but if you are only a fan of the old snoop than you probably won't like this that much.
After this it's not such a bad idea to get another Snoop album but I would say this is a good place to start your collection.
