I was way too harsh on this initially. As I revisit it I've found a solid album with some enjoyable moments. If you think of Snoop's more experimental albums like 'Ego Trippin'', 'Bush' and '7 Days of Funk', I think this is the better one. 'Ashtrays and Heartbreaks' standouts, but Snoop takes a backseat to Miley who completely takes over the song, which can be said more than once here. The features do a lot of the heavy lifting at times, and that's probably why this isn't a bad project. I like 'No Guns Allowed' too, but wish it didn't have Drake's phone it in verse. 'Smoke the Weed' is kind of catchy. 'Lighters Up' is probably the most hip hop of the songs, and has a dope hook which can be said for a number of tracks. 'Tired of Running' on the other hand is so much worse than Akon's near perfect original from his second album. If you haven't heard it, check it out. Other weaker moments include 'Get Away', that moves into the dance genre, and the dubstep/dancehall 'Fruit Juice.' All in all, this is a good attempt at feel-good reggae by Snoop and all of his friends who helped put it together. The standard edition is enough as the deluxe doesn't have much to shout about.
