Just had my first listen, an my personal opinion is that its pretty shit. Nice dub but the lyrics just wreck the track.
I'm a fan of snoop but I think he should stick to what he does best, hip-hop.

dont you all get your panties in a bunch

chase and status had nothing to do with this except for making eastern jam and it being a tune out in the music world

snoop dogg happened to find the beat when someone showed it to him and he ended up liking the track and wanting to do something with it

so mix tape style snoop threw a voice track over eastern jam in the studio with a chorus and whatever( something i or anyone of you could do with garageband and a mic). i m under the impression that this was done ONLY on the permission of C&S manager. C&S had no influence on the production of the song except for the original tune

in all honesty i dont think they would have approved the chorus, it sounds swag and they make top quality music

but snoop dogg rapping over dubstep could have potential, IMO. i think that if it was done well that C&S could produce an ORIGINAL tune that snoop could rap on that would make sense and have synthesis. i think it has some damn good potential

this song(at least im pretty sure) is a prototype. from the looks of it the song isnt being recieved too well so who knows whats gonna happen

but i see where you all are coming from, i think that people just found this and didnt know much about it and how it was put together, let alone how to feel about it

i have faith that dubstep will remain underground. most people cant deal with the SOUND!!! if you have an ear for it, you love battling DUBSTEP in the dance, if you don't have an ear for it, the music attacks and runs you out the spot! the true dub heads will prevail... UNITE and HOLD STRONG!

theres a reason why GOOD dubstep/drum and bass etc isnt in the top 40 - its just not music that most people like.

why the obsession with trying to 'enlighten' people to like music just because you think its really awesome?!

someone makes a crossover tune, people get all excited thinking this will get exposure to the music and soon everyone will be listening to dubstep all the time.

problem is MOST ORDINARY PEOPLE JUST DONT LIKE IT. so coked up over-egoed big producers start chasing success making more and more crossovery tunes to appeal to 'the kids' until its nothing but watered down shit like pendulum and dj fresh and all that crap.

seriously listen to some pendulum. IS THIS WHAT YOU WANT?!?!?!

I agree with this post quite alot

i think eastern jam is amazing, that goes without saying really, "snoop dog millionaire", not so amazing, obviously. But i think this could be the start of something new. its very basic now but i think that we will start seeing a bit more of this sort of stuff. Personally, i think it will take someone like Kanye West to do it right, He'll give a dirty dubstep track some wicked american hop hop twist and will end up creating something like "hip step" or "Dub hop" etc. this will then see the true dubstep fans stay loyal to dubstep and true hip hop fans stay loyal to hip hop and some faddy, teenagers stuck in the middle. It will blow over as quickly as any music fad, so really, my point is, theres not much to worry about, if u dont like it, dont listen to it!

This is pretty much spot on

Kanye West...?

KANYE West?

I don't wanna hear chopped up sampled loops from all past DMZ releases thrown into a 80-90bpm track with his auto-tuned bullshit over it. Kanye is a sell out.

It's quite easy to say "Pleaaase don't make dubstep mainstream", when your mummy cooks you every day, and give you pocket money, buys you a computer so you can became a biiiig underground producer with no real life problems in your cutie tidy little room with bears and posters on the walls...

Grow up already, If this makes some producer able to pay rents and bills, and have a good life out of music not rotting in some small office for half of his life... that's great!!!

The music will not go worse because of that... So you make a shitty tune that will go mainstream, earn your money and do 10 tunes that you enjoy, in peace...

Fair enough if Chase&Status had nothing to do with this, i have no problem with them. But why is it labeled as production by Wild Animals and Chase&Status?!? who are the Wild Animals and what did they contribute to this track?
and listening to it again, my mind is the same, it's a fucking hunk of shit.
Singing is out of tune at times and there is nothing worse than two vocals occurring at once.
Like someone said above, Snoop should stick to what he does best, Hip-hop.

Can't believe i just wasted my time writing this.

Yea, I don't look at this like Snoop is "stealing" anything. Like Grubstep said, somebody in LA (i think a DJ or some promoter who hosts nights) had been getting into dubstep, and showed Snoop and his manager this track....apparently the bassline tripped them out and intrigued...and that meeting resulted in this tune. I would like to think a shitload of different tracks got listened to....and he chose "Eastern Jam" but I don't know really...this track just doesn't work though. So many other tunes could have been more effective but that's how it went I suppose.
