Snoop Dogg 'Doggystyle' 25th Anniversary Mixtape - Mixed by DJ Matman



Last Friday was the 25th anniversary of the release of Doggystyle.  To commemorate the release; DJ Matman put together this Highly Recommended mix of samples taken from the Snoop's classic debut.

On 23rd November 1993, Snoop Dogg released his debut solo LP Doggystyle. Hot on the heels of his standout appearances on Dr. Dre's 1992 solo debut The Chronic, Doggystyle rocketed Snoop to stardom. Following in the sonic footsteps of The Chronic, the album was one of a number from the era responsible for popularising the emerging G-Funk sound, with West Coast Funk, P-Funk and Boogie samples colliding with polished production values to great effect. The album ultimately would go on to achieve quadruple-platinum sales. In celebration of the album's 25th Anniversary, DJ Matman has crafted an exclusive mixtape of album tracks, alternate versions, interview snippets and of course original sample material, which we're pleased to present in collaboration with Wax Poetics magazine.
