Snoop Lion – Reincarcerated

<div class="entry-content" readability="54"><img src="http://www.tonepublications.com/media/snoop1.jpg" alt="Snoop Lion – Reincarcerated" class="thumbnail large post-image" /><p><strong>You can take the boy out of hip-hop, but you can’t take the hip-hop out of the boy.* Snoop’s current record has more of a reggae flavor, but there are plenty of hard-hitting grooves here to keep loyal fans satiated. If anything, this album sounds like it was influenced more by Katy Perry than Bob Marley.</strong></p>
<p>And much like his legendary <em>Doggystyle</em> (perhaps the most well-recorded hip-hop record in history), <em>Reincarcerated</em> is brilliantly recorded, and mastered by Sterling Sound.* Some care is put into this one.</p>
<p>Combining very quiet surfaces with an extremely solid bottom end, the LP outperforms the CD across the spectrum, with that same expansive soundstage that Snoop has always provided.* You may not dig Snoop Lion’s current direction; if you don’t, you probably don’t care about what formats are available. However, if you find <em>Reincarcerated</em> to be your cup of tea, the LP is clearly superior to the CD. *<em>-Jeff Dorgay</em></p>
<p>RCA, 2LP</p>
