Did Domino sound like Snoop, or did Snoop sound like Domino?

[85 East]

Domino released his debut album "Domino" on Dec 7th, 1993. He was a total package rapper, able to rap, sing and harmonize. Signed to Def Jam records, Domino paved the way for other West Coast rappers to succeed on the label. So why wasn't his career super successful? Was it due to Death Row Records and Snoop Dogg?

I'm a recent sit down interview with Big Boy, Snoop admitted that Domino used to write lyrics for Snoop when the pair was in high-school.

I feel like east coast dudes kind of started that

 

[Buckeye Fever]

If anything, Da Brat tried sounding like Snoop lol


But on some real shyt, I loved that Domino album.

Ghetto Jam was that late night, cruising music.

Sweet Potato Pie got the party jumping.

Raincoat was a sexually conscious record


Dope album to me. Long Beach got quite a few albums I play front to back. No skips.

 

[Tribal Outkast]

He didn’t sound like Snoop at all lol. Maybe if he was signed on a west label shyt would be different.

I felt like the brat sounded like snoop and redman combined. Even had the same redman flow on her first lp

Not surprising, considering Snoop/Death Row Records was known for jacking other unknown/non established artists.

 

[General Mills]

Domino was ahead of his time. His album was dope as fukk.

 

[Monoblock]

They never sounded alike to begin with. Domino released a track California a few years back and smooth as ever. The entire OXP album is damn good.

 

[Mr. Manhattan]

Another Knocturnal ?

 

[OperationNumbNutts]

I can see the similarity with the flow.

 

[Juggalo Fred]

Domino from Evil Mind Gangstas?
