It’s surprising that he didn’t opt for a rootsy and organic form of throwback reggae one that’s more natural and stripped down, as that kind of sound would sport some really raw and authentic ethnic values. However, while qualities that the former rapper has always displayed do make him slide easily into this new Rastafarian skin, Reincarnated doesn’t show that Snoop has anything new or interesting to bring into the reggae scene. That placid personality trait about his delivery just so happens to transfer over into reggae music very well on his debut album under the Snoop Lion moniker, Reincarnated. Snoop Dogg’s name is really one of the only changes he’s gone through that is actually drastic in his rebirth as the reggae artist “Snoop Lion.” As a rapper, he always had a very laid-back tone and smooth flow that would never become as forceful as his gangsta rap contemporaries, and always maintained a calm and collected cool overall. Review Summary: While not the flop that most were expecting, the mighty lion yawns rather than roars.
