Christmas season is one of the busiest times of year for us.. But this year, our busiest day ended up being the day AFTER Christmas! For whatever reason, people seem to be waiting until the last moment this year to get their college bowl game tickets. Typically, this is a dead week for us, as many people are on vacation and spending time with their families. But bowl fever seems to be sweeping the nation, and we’re busier than ever..
There’s still time to get those last-minute bowl game tickets, but don’t delay - Tickets are going fast!
Snoop Dogg is set to release his new album next year. “Ego Trippin” is due out in March. Snoop’s ninth album will be the follow-up to 2006’s The Blue Carpet Treatment.
The premiere single, produced by Shawty Redd, titled Sensual Seduction, is an ode to the early eighties. The catchy up-tempo showcases Snoop’s talents in a completely different capacity, unlike anything we have ever heard from the rap veteran. “Sensual Seduction” features Snoop playing both the singer and the rapper, crooning about fleshly desires through melodic verses. On it, Snoop’s vocals are reminiscent of the signature “talk box” machine, inspired by the funk sounds of Roger and Zapp.
The video for the single was directed by Melina, known for her vibrant hued and fantasy-like shots (Eve “Tambourine, Ludacris “Money Maker”). The video takes viewers back to the early eighties and pays homage to some of Snoop’s favorite artists like Roger Troutman, Rick James, Prince and others from that time. Taking a cue from the era when music was all about having fun, the video showcases video vixens channeling the Mary Jane Girls and Vanity 6, while Snoop plays the leading man.
Snoop says, “Sensual Seduction is like a throwback feel-good song. I wanted to have fun with this one….and the video is crazy!”
