by Michael McCarthy (Beaulieu) & Jay Cavalon First of all, I’m sure some of you will think that we’ve put some of these albums in the wrong categories. To that end, all we can say is that the best albums often transcend genre classifications and that this was what we came up with after careful…

Snoop Dogg is the man. No, not the police. The other man, the cool one, the coolest motherfucker in the world. So, when he drops a laid back trap track like “Trash Bag,” we take notice. The just released video has everything you could want in a music video: Snoop Dogg, bags of money, lovely…
