I am unreasonably obsessed with Snoop Dogg’s “Sensual Seduction”. I’ve always held lukewarm feelings towards the Dogg– especially despising the unavoidable “Drop It Like It’s Hot”– but this song is unbelievably good. I hadn’t even seen the astounding music video when I decided that it was my favorite pop song of the year. I shouldn’t need to mention how rapturous the video is– you should be watching it right now.
Directed by Melina Matsoukas, the rad chick behind Beyoncés crazy-ass “Kitty Kat” video, “Sensual Seduction” combines every shitty/awesome thing that has ever existed, in the words of my friend Mya. I want to live in the universe Snoop inhabits, rolling around in the sheets of an intergalactic rotating bed. I can only hope the rest of his new album, Ego Trippin’, is half as brilliant as this single.

oh it wont be.
i have never really liked, much less loved, a snoop dogg song. while other pop personas have had at least one or two moments of infectious wonderment, snoop always seemed like his demeanor of lulz always promised more than it could ever deliver.
this is, finally, a fulfillment of that unspoken promise. completely rad in all forms. also, looks like it could have been done by tim and eric, which is a big plus in my book

Um, “Sensual Seduction” is currently right at the top of my reasons for living.
