That's really the only way I can describe Snoop Dogg's new single "Sexual Eruption" off his forthcoming album Ego Trippin'.
Yes, the name of the song is indeed "Sexual Eruption."
Is he being overly cheesy a la R. Kelly?
I'm not sure. Maybe.
He actually sings into a vocorder on the track, which you can hear on his MySpace site.

I've been The Baltimore Sun's nightlife and local entertainment reporter for a couple years, and it's surprising how much the scene has grown in that time. Most of Baltimore's bars and clubs are unpretentious places with fairly cheap drinks and plenty of character. I like dancing and think this city needs more clubs, but nothing beats having a cold, locally brewed beer with friends in a comfortably full corner bar.

I think Snoop (or someone at Geffen) is a genius on this one. With the crossover potential into the dance and hipster markets now and the vocoder being back a la Chromeo and other acts... Snoop is a genius for this one!

I can't tell if he's trying to be more like Chromeo, or Akon. His voice definitely bounces between the two.
I'm a fan of the synths over the Baltimore Club-like beat much more than the typical "Timbaland mod wheel beats" that currently saturates the airwaves.
