Favorite Color Blue – Tha Dogg Pound ft. Stresmatic, SoulCat
Calling all West Coast hip-hop lovers! Tha Dogg Pound is back with a brand new banger, “Favorite Color Blue,” and it’s a full-blown trip down memory lane. This single, which dropped on May 21st, features the iconic duo of Daz Dillinger and Kurupt trading verses over a smooth, classic G-funk beat that will have you nodding your head in no time.
They’re not alone though; Stresmatic and SoulCat jump on the track with guest appearances, adding a fresh layer of energy and keeping things interesting.
The lyrics themselves are a love letter to the color blue, its deeper meaning, and the role it’s played in the lives of these West Coast legends. Let’s face it, blue is more than just a color for these guys – it’s a symbol of their roots, their experiences growing up in LA gang culture, and everything that comes with it. The music video, directed by Colin Tilley,perfectly captures this idea.
Think stylized visuals of the artists performing against backgrounds bathed in cool blue hues,interspersed with scenes that pay homage to that classic LA gang life aesthetic. And to top it all off, cameos from West Coast icons like Snoop Dogg add a layer of authenticity that can’t be faked.
“Favorite Color Blue” is a solid return to form for Tha Dogg Pound. This single brings back the signature sound that made them West Coast hip-hop royalty in the 90s, while the guest spots from Stresmatic and SoulCat keep things fresh and ensure the track appeals to a new generation of fans. It’s a perfect blend of old-school respect and new-school energy, all wrapped up in a catchy ode to the color blue.
Quotable Lyrics:
Snoop’s my big cousin, Daz is my brother
Now, let me just remind you ni**as of my favorite color
The ocean, the skies
The color of that blonde b*tch’s eyes
The motion, the vibes
Blue khaki suit synchronized
Huh, I make ni**as wanna do that sh*t
‘Cause I’m the owner of that motherf**king blue nose pit pet dog
