Snoop Dogg
Snoop Dogg, finding time to record a ninth album despite his commitment to appearing in every stoner comedy in the last 15 years, is easily the most self-aware, larger-than-life rap figure of his generation. How else would you explain the song "Sensual Seduction" and the corresponding video? With quality reminiscent of videotape from the '80s, or just Snoop's own adult-themed work in Doggystyle, it perfectly captures the vintage samples and synthy sounds featured prominently in Ego Trippin'.
