Análisis (en inglés) - :
You can look at the hard-hitting {^Tha Blue Carpet Treatment} as a reaction to the crossover-minded {^R&G (Rhythm & Gangsta): The Masterpiece}, an album that featured {$Justin Timberlake} and the mega-single {&"Drop It Like It's Hot."} Since that polished -- some would say "watered-down" -- effort put him over the top (again), {$Snoop} was seen shilling for Chrysler and Orbit gum when he used to rep {=Girls Gone Wild: Doggy Style} videos and that green sticky-icky you can only get on the West Coast. The time to buy street cred would be now, right? Well, {$Snoop}'s been doing some amazing things under most folks' radar, and this album is the natural outcome. While the title is a little poke at the Crip/Blood, blue/red dichotomy, {^Tha Blue Carpet Treatment} feels like the {\G-funk} soundtrack to {$Snoop}'s 2005 West Coast peace summit and all the positive hood moves he's made since then, like squashing all West Coast beefs and throwing some love to Cali's often-ignored {\Latin} {\hip-hop} community with his intentionally leaked {&"My Peoples"} freestyle. It's the latter relationship that's responsible for the excellent {&"Vato,"} and while special guest {$B Real} might be way bigger than {$2Mex} or most of the other names mentioned in {&"My Peoples,"} the {$Cypress Hill} sideman needs {$Snoop} in 2006 much more than vice versa. Polished efforts like the pimping {&"That's That S***"} with {$R. Kelly} and the strip club anthem {&"I Wanna F*** You"} with {$Akon} fall between {^Doggystyle}-d {\gangsta} throwbacks like the slinky {&"Crazy"} with {$Nate Dogg} and {&"Candy (Drippin' Like Water),"} which features {$E-40} and {$Tha Dogg Pound} next to lesser-known vets {$Goldie Loc} and {$MC Eiht}. Juggling {&"Candy"}'s guests would be hard enough for lesser Gs, but it's a testament to {$Snoop} that he can, and more so that he manages a full album that touches upon just about every ghetto flavor. Banger after banger, produced by everyone from {$Timbaland} to {$the Neptunes}, leads to a couple numbers that almost throw the album off-track: {&"Psst!,"} where {$Jamie Foxx} woefully pretends he's {$Prince}, and the pee-wee football anthem {&"Beat Up on Yo Pads,"} which is just out of place. Then there's the dream number {&"Imagine,"} a duet between {$Dr. Dre} and {$Snoop} that ponders a hood life not blessed with {\hip-hop}, a life where the two would have never gotten "out from under." As the album exits on the positive {&"Conversations"} with {$Stevie Wonder}, memories of {^Rhythm & Gangsta}'s grandest moments return, and it becomes obvious {^Tha Blue Carpet Treatment} isn't so much a reaction to that album as it is a house party celebrating {$Snoop}'s whole career. With heaping helpings of {\G-funk} and Left Coast attitude, there's no reason any West Coast-loving hip-hopper should miss this party. ~ David Jeffries, All Music Guide
