Show All-
Pitchfork
As Snoop cruises on into his Cool Uncle entrepreneur phase, the title of his very enjoyable 15th studio album, Neva Left, is, nevertheless, pretty accurate.
-
XXL Magazine
Turning in an effort that's as potent as the various strains in his circumference and finds the O.G. hitting on all cylinders. A testament to his unprecedented staying power.

So, he is showing us how it’s done, like he’s always done it. He never left, after all.

I personally hope Snoop Dogg never truly leaves. He’s a unique, necessary music figure, and Neva Left solidifies that.

The more you listen to it, the more you hear the passion he has.

Billboard
The album serves as an ode to every phase of Snoop Dogg's career and also hosts collaborations with fellow rap vets like KRS-One, Too $hort, Red Man and Method Man.

All Music
Heavily nostalgic and yet fully energized, Neva Left continues Snoop Dogg's easy whim-to-whim glide.

Gulf News
So the hip hop kingpin, now a grandfather, is showing us how it’s done, once again, like he’s always done it. He never left, after all.
-
The Star
It can't be said enough how great this album feels. Snoop shows himself to be a better rapper than he has ever been before.
-
Richer Sounds
For an album of 16 tracks to not have any flaws is quite rare, even if there are some stronger moments there really are not many weak ones.
-
Immortal Reviews
It's a solid record yet it doesn't have much climax or energy to it.
-
Pandora
Although their album offers a high quantity of whomping bass lines played at relaxed tempos, Snoop demonstrates throughout that he still has love for the East Coast.
-
Spectator
Underpinned by Mr Dogg’s rich, soft growl of a voice, his latest album is his best for years.
-
The Boombox
Snoop rhymes on the hook, bringing to mind the days of yesteryear.
-
Rap Reviews
Unfortunately, yet predictably, another mixed bag.
-
Diamond in the Groove
Overall, therefore, Neva Left may yield some of the most outstanding songs from Snoop Dogg’s recent output, but the project, as a whole, is all over the place.
-
Exclaim
Other than "Big Mouth," though, there's nothing truly awful here, and there's enough good that it isn't a total loss.
-
Cult #MTL
There is a song for every type of Snoop fan on here, with the rapper offering “best of” flavours from his past while looking ahead towards a fruitful future.

All Hip Hop
Certifies His Legendary Status.
-
PCC Courier
Definitely not a ho-hum summer album, this record is instead the perfect soundtrack for the dog days, brought to you by Snoop Doggy Dogg himself.
-
The Daily
Snoop reminds us why he is one of the greats.
-
Times of India
In Neva Left, all you have to do is hit play and let Snoop take over.
-
Hip Hop DX
Snoop Dogg has nothing left to prove in the rap game, yet he is still delivering new music to his fans.
-
Shaz
The 15th record is a sad attempt to try to recapture the atmosphere of 1992-1994. It comes off more as a cheap mixtape .
-
Amino Apps
Congrats to "Neva Left" for being my first 10/10 of 2017. The title of this album isn't just for show, it really is like Snoop "Neva Left" the game.
-
Beat Mash Magazine
Neva Left is a solid disc and one of the best of these last years of Snoop Dogg that has wanted to return to recover that freshness of past times. Then you can listen to it completely.
-
The Urban Buzz
Just a firm reminder from the Doggfather that he will always sit as a symbol for modern gangsta rap.
-
Opinionated Opinion
What Snoop doesn’t fail at whenever he provides an album is that the quality of the instrumentals. However, it does get slightly dull lyrically.
-
Guest List
A clear stab against all the doubters, haters and industry know-it-alls saying Snoop fell off.He can cut it with the new wave kids of hip-hop.
-
Loud Feedback
At his point, he’s proven that he doesn’t need to adapt and change with the times. Not when he can just do what he does and have it sound like this album.
-
The Rap Fest
Snoop’s flow is still as smooth as ever and like the cover suggests he’s taking it back to the basics.
-
ihiphop
To say he stands the test of time is an understatement. His grit and smooth style always prevail.
-
Rap N Blues
I've already listened to the album twice and I like it pretty much.
-
Zajil Speed
I am giving this one the low end yellow light because it isn't that good of a project. Reason being is because he is going against his strengths here.
