It's a testament to Snoop Dogg's skills as a rapper that he can voice some of the same politically incorrect sentiments as his West Coast hip-hop peers without receiving the same kind of public outcry. The reason for this is that Snoop's delivery is so perfectly understated and ostensibly devoid of malice that it's hard to emotionally connect the vocalist with the more disturbing aspects of his chosen subject matter. This phenomenon is evident throughout DEAD MAN WALKIN almost more than on any of Snoop's previous releases. From both his tone and his tales, one gets the distinct impression that sustained access to "the chronic" is more important to Snoop's mindset than the sexual braggadocio of "Head Doctor" or the tough talk of "Gangsta Walk." Make no mistake, though; this doesn't detract from his image or credibility one iota. In fact, it's probably why we love him.
