Gangsta rap duo Tha Dogg Pound is the latest act to spring forth from producer Dr. Dre’s stable of mega-selling talent. “Dogg Food” adheres to the highly successful formula of Dre’s and Snoop Doggy Dogg’s albums ― relaxed raps over slippery funk with a preoccupation with violence, misogyny and getting high.
The execution is clean, but some new wrinkles are needed to keep Dre’s crew fresh.
