"Da Game Is To Be Sold, Not To Be Told" hasn't been given great reviews in it's time but there has been a lot of people sayin' that it is just as great as the rest, and that's exactly what I think, It is Snoop's first album that he done since leavin' Death Row in January '98, and joinin' Master P's No Limit Records in March '98, I think that most of the tracks on the album are really good, even without the help of anyone he is used to rap wit' such ... ...of decent tracks on "Da Game Is To Be Sold, Not To Be Told" such as: Whatcha Gon Do, Don't Let Go, Hoes Money & Clout, Dogg'z Gonna Get Ya, Still A "G" Thang, Gin & Juice II, DP Gangsta, and that isn't all, "Da Game Is To Be Sold, Not To Be Told" is a great album, definately get it if you see it around. (It Must Be Good To Debut At No. 1, But Then Again All Snoop Albums Seem To Debut At No.1) ...
