The idea of the cover song in hip-hop has largely been seen as a no-no. Snoop Dogg caused people to reconsider their ideas on his debut album when he remade Slick Rick & Doug E. Fresh’s classic “La-Di-Da-Di.” Over the years Snoop has put his own spin on a few classic tunes, such as Eric B & Rakim’s “Paid In Full,” and most recently Rob Base & DJ EZ Rock’s “I Wanna Rock.”
For his upcoming mixtape of classic west coast rap songs, West Coast Blueprint, Snoop takes on Ice Cube & Das EFX’s 1993 classic “Check Yo Self.”
