He may have been usurped in recent years, but during the period detailed in Murder Was the Case, Snoop Doggy Dogg was the last word in gangsta rap. As with Eminem, the power behind Snoop's throne was undoubtedly producer Dr. Dre, and he is included in nearly as much of the documentary footage as the rapper himself. While not exactly in-depth, a few of the interviews do scratch beneath the surface of the gangsta veneer (when asked if he is a violent man, Snoop's reply is a slightly chilling "When I have to be"). Along with clips from live television performances are a selection of music videos, the usual mix of edgy urban funk and street style coupled with the rather tired visual imagery. The short film from which the package derives its title takes these concepts to an uncensored conclusion, a tasteless and crass work indulging in explicit scenes of violence, drugs, and misogyny. --Phil Udell

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Murder Was The Case Review
Cashing in on the popularity of the "gangsta rap" craze of the mid-90's, Death Row Records released this long-form music video starring media sensation, Snoop Doggy Dogg in 1994. With a murder case pending against him and every parental watchdog group in the country attacking his controversial debut album, "Doggystyle", Snoop stepped in front of the camera for this movie short, directed by mentor, Dr. Dre. This marked the first time that Dre, who was considered by many to be the greatest producer ... Read More



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Studio gangstars
just some studio gangstars claiming fame from the hard work of others. a pity... these guys owe everything to the real g's..



Rating:  out of 5 stars - snoop kills them wit his flow on this!
this is a good dvd. full of bonus material. good to see the old death row again. murder was the case is probably the best short film/video ever made. almost better than thriller. get this youll like it.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - What ever DRE touches turns to GOLD
I wish they had made this video into a full screen movie. It keeps you wanting more. If Snoop get behind the right director, or someone who knows what they are doing. He could go far.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - SNOOP & DRE at their BEST!
Finally on DVD with a few EXTRA bonuses. A MUST HAVE FOR ANY TRUE FAN!!!!!!!!!!!
