The album’s title is a direct subversion of the Hollywood "red carpet" treatment. By swapping red for blue, Snoop paid homage to his gang affiliation and his life in Long Beach, California .

: The track "Vato" (featuring B-Real) was specifically designed to address gang violence and promote racial unity between African American and Latino communities in Los Angeles.

The track that followed wasn’t “Think About It” or “Crazy.” It was a version of “Sexual Eruption” that didn’t exist—laced with a sample of a crying baby and a police scanner from 1996. Malik’s screen flickered. His laptop’s fan spun into a jet engine whine. Then, a terminal window opened by itself.

So, roll out the metaphorical carpet, light one up, and press play. Just make sure you have the subwoofer on. Snoop is in the building.
