The latest arrest of rapper "Snoop Dogg" should be no surprise to anyone. He has a long arrest record and has been getting away with criminal activity for some time. His most recent arrest should lead to jail time but, as usual, it seems he will dodge jail for this offense.

Snoop, real name Calvin Broadus, was arrested in Heathrow Airport in London for assaulting police officers. He was with a mob of about 30 people. The "Dogg" was taken into custody with 6 others. Allegedly, he and his crew went nuts when denied entrance into a business lounge at the terminal. Whisky bottles were thrown by the "classy" thugs.

As usual, such a low-down act committed by rappers and their associates should be expected. Their "act" is all about intimidation, trashiness, hatred and evil. Snoop is just following in the footsteps of countless rappers with arrest records and general disrespect for the law.

He has been arrested as far back as the early 90's. He is a reported gang associate of the Crips and has been locked up for drug possession, firearm possession and even as an accomplice to a murder for which he was found innocent. His car has been riddled with bullets, as well. Not exactly your typical American lifestyle.

Reportedly, British Airways has permanently banned him and crew from ever flying with the airline again. This is a good start. England should ban him next. Why would you want this thug in your country to begin with? It cannot lead to anything good. Certainly the injured officers can attest to that.
What is truly disturbing about this incident is the acceptance of such a guy like Snoop. America has totally accepted him as some sort of clown who is really not so bad. He even appeared on a television ad with former Chrysler Chairman, Lee Iacocca. Talk about sick.

Look at the perverted comparison between Snoop and someone like ex-baseball pitcher, John Rocker. Rocker has become a total outcast in every way for saying some bad things about New York City and immigrants. He was booed in countless stadiums and stations like ESPN still try to smash him to bits. The Dogg on the other hand is greeted beautifully all the time on countless radio and television stations including ESPN. This despite a long criminal record and spreading negativity. Obviously, his race has something to do with it as any criticism of a black "celebrity" is highly frowned upon by the politically-correct crowd. No NAACP condemnations, either.

America is in decline as the horrors of political-correctness, lowering of standards, greed and now, the acceptance of a rap culture whose contributions of violence and crassness are viewed as "normal." Why England or any other nation would want this in their backyard is beyond comprehension. America is paying the price for it. Does the rest of the world want to pay also?

My back aches.

My toe is swollen.

My shoulder tight and stiff.

My voice gone.

These are all signs that you have done something worthwhile. Last night was worthwhile. Last night Snoop Dogg took the stage at about 7pm and rocked the pavilion. At least everyone there thought he rocked the place until Nick Hexum and the 311 crew shook Nissan Pavilion down.

During the final two songs on Snoops setlist the storm was brewing, the rain started and the sky looked ominous. But Snoops funky beats chased the storm clouds out and after a brief shower the lights went out and 311 rocked the house.

If anyone is still undecided on whether to see this show, GO! The crowd was amazing and positive and at the end of it all there wasn't a dry armpit in the house. Everyone was bumpin to the beats Snoop and 311 threw down.

Snoop threw out a great variety of old and new. Not to mention a splash of Biggie Smalls and House of Pain. The full band was impressive and talented and pulled an unexpected nice sized audience. He was worth the price of admission alone.

Then Threeeleven came out and played a hell of a set. To my liking, there was a nice grouping of songs from the first four albums. The staples were played as well. Love Song, Beautiful Disaster, Beyond the Grey Sky, the "Happy Slam Dance Song" Do You Right, Hive was a pleasant surprise, and they opened with Down to get the party started.

The set was one of the shortest I have seen, and I have seen twenty-some of them, but it was quickly rocketed to the near top. It was short, but tight and hard. Just the way you want to have it so none of the "old-school" fans get bored.

Best moment of the show? The encore. Fat Chance (FTBS). Best last song any band can play to end a show hands down. I was delighted, and sweaty.

I Wanna love you is a name suggest is a love song sung by Akon, the Senegalese born American Hip Hop singer. This is the second single by the singer and also features Snoop Dog, I Wanna Love You is a single form his album Konvicted. Akon is a Senegalese born Hip Hop singer and songwriter currently based in United States. This is Akon’s first number one single in the billboard and for Snoop this is his second number 1 song at the billboard. I Wanna love you is a censored version of the song which had a different title earlier, in this song Love has replaced other words. This song was performed live at the American Music Awards in the year 2006. This song was originally made by Piles; he is an upcoming rapper from Ft Myers in Florida, but later on due to some reasons he was replaced by Snoop Dog to work on the song.

Originally when the song came out under another title, and this generated huge controversy which forced a change in the title. However most of the elements of the songs remained as was in the original, only the world fuck was changed to love to make to deal with the controversy. Other then this certain words in the lyrics that were found to be not fit for younger audiences was also removed from the content. The video of the song is shot very well and it revolves around the character of the song who notices a stripper in a strip bar doing her work Both the character and the stripper notice each other, get attracted and wish to be together with each other.

Though Piles was the original writer of the song, he was replaced by Akon later on with Snoop Dog. The main reason behind this is the fact that Piles was arrested for illegal possession of gun. Two of his close people were further charged with attempted murder in a shooting that broke out in a Nightclub at Florida. Though Piles was released on bail, but this had a heavy impact on his work and was consequently replaced by Snoop Dog in the song. Akon is one of the most popular artists in the Hip Hop scene today. He released his album Konvicted and this album was made in collaboration with Snoop Dog, Styles P and Eminem. This album which contains the song I Wanna Love You made its debut at number 2 in the Billboard.

The I Wanna Love you and other songs of the album have gone on to become chart topper at many places worldwide. On the whole the album Konvicted is a good blend of music of different types. The album has Hip Hop songs, Rap, R and B and Reggae which reflects his African origin and roots. The album has recorded a sale of more then 2000,000 copies and that too within the first week.

Kati Makat loves all kinds of music like rock, hip hop, country, pop, rap and reggae. She refers http://www.ez-tracks.com as one of her favorite sites for downloading music,free MP3 downloads,online music,I wanna love you.

Snoop Dogg has disappointed me a lot lately, since he started collaborating with Pharell Williams in particular. His music had become an annoying, tasteless and sugarcoated mixture of R‘n‘B alike songs. However, it looks like the rap legend has put some more efforts into his most recent album. Not all of his songs nor collaborations have convinced me, but the album contains some strong and valuable tracks that keep it gangsta and appeal to more creativity.

Intrology takes the listener by surprise. Introduced by a dark instrumental background, featuring George Clinton, the prelude of the album will remind you of the old Snoop Dogg. Based on an enthusiastic rhythm, it describes a life of luxury and introduces the blue carpet treatment aimed at super stars.

Trumpets, keyboards, soft funky sounds draw a relaxing atmosphere while Snoop Dogg flows faster than the wind, contrasting with the funky/soul atmosphere of the song. Well done!

Crazy featuring Nate Dogg beautifully describes a California life style. Watered sounds are combined with soft female vocals. It is time to relax and to enjoy Snoop playing with the vowels. Sit back, relax and feel good: Snoop is taking you to a trip in a good West Coast style.

Vato is definitely worth your attention. It intelligently combines Snoop’s talent with Cypress Hill’s B Real genuine Latino style.
Follow the beginning of a beef and enjoy both rappers’ narrative skills in a chronic style. I recommend you the song and video to Vato.

Well…That’s That belongs to the songs I find superficial and horrible. Maybe it is also due to the fact that I never liked R Kelly. More strikingly, Party songs are not my cup of tea. No way.

Candy Dripping Like Water is quite disappointing too. It is not better than 50 Cent’s Candy Shop. The lyrics are poor and E 40, Mc Eiht, Goldie, Daz and Kurupt don’t help improving it. It sadly lacks imagination.
Get A Light featuring Damian Marley is not among my favorites either. I’m not really satisfied with the content nor with the use of the instrumentals that sound repetitive and boring as hell.

Gangbangin’ 101 is a Snoop/ The Game collaboration. Keyboard sounds, harpsichord notes and rhythmic claps will transport the listener into a Californian gangsta atmosphere.

Lax featuring Ice Cube has some police cars sirens in the background. The soft vocals strangely contrast with the sirens and will make you guess the dangerous and unsafe environment Cali actually is.

The song that I really enjoyed is Lil Crips. Built on somber bass sounds married with some banging lyrics, the song describes baby gangstas’ criminal activities. The song is rhythmic and well worked on.

Unsafe again is Round Here. Harpsichord notes combined with swinging beats totally describe the harsh environment of the LA hood. It ain’t safe to leave the house: you have been warned by a true OG.

Bitch I Knew has that beautiful G Funk flavor in the background. The song is luscious as hell. Sensitive souls better skip the song. Strong stomachs will probably enjoy the filthy song in which Snoop plays the role of a kinky pimp (you guessed it).

Globally, the albums offers some interesting musical perspectives from a man who totally made it in the rap game. In many songs, Snoop’s mastery of his art comes to shine. Unfortunately some other songs are much more disappointing and ways too commercial to me.

However, the listeners should give the album a chance, because of its highly positive assets mentioned above.
