    Product Review
    He may have been usurped in recent years, but during the period detailed in Murder Was the Case, Snoop Doggy Dogg was the last word in gangsta rap. As with Eminem, the power behind Snoop's throne was undoubtedly producer Dr. Dre, and he is included in nearly as much of the documentary footage as the rapper himself. While not exactly in-depth, a few of the interviews do scratch beneath the surface of the gangsta veneer (when asked if he is a violent man, Snoop's reply is a slightly chilling "When I have to be"). Along with clips from live television performances are a selection of music videos, the usual mix of edgy urban funk and street style coupled with the rather tired visual imagery. The short film from which the package derives its title takes these concepts to an uncensored conclusion, a tasteless and crass work indulging in explicit scenes of violence, drugs, and misogyny. --Phil Udell

    This review is from: Murder Was Case (VHS Tape) Cashing in on the popularity of the "gangsta rap" craze of the mid-90's, Death Row Records released this long-form music video starring media sensation, Snoop Doggy Dogg in 1994. With a murder case pending against him and every parental watchdog group in the country attacking his controversial debut album, "Doggystyle", Snoop stepped in front of the camera for this movie short, directed by mentor, Dr. Dre. This marked the first time that Dre, who was considered by many to be the greatest producer in hip-hop, directed a film project. Inspired by the hit single of the same name off his multi-platinum album, "Murder" features Snoop as a gang member who gets caught up in a drive-by shooting and sells his soul to the devil for a second chance at life and a career in music. Things go haywire for him, however, when the devil turns the tables and sends him to prison for murder. "Murder Was The Case" is both a long-form music video for the hit single as well as a brief documentary of Snoop Doggy Dogg the rapper as he explains how he got into the rap game and the influence of his music on mainstream America. It also features a collection of music videos and live concert footage featuring Snoop and his Dogg Pound Posse. Comment | Permalink | (Report this)
