Tha Doggfather
''Tha Doggfather'' is the second studio album by American rapper Snoop Doggy Dogg; it was released, by The "New and Untouchable" Death Row Records on November 12, 1996. The album was re-released July 11, 2005. Prior to the successful release of his debut album ''Doggystyle'' (1993), Snoop was charged with murder. During 1995, Snoop had been spending much time preparing for the case, which went to trial later that year. In February 1996, he was cleared of all charges and began working on his second album, without Dr. Dre as producer. This was Snoop's last album on Death Row Records under the name of ''Snoop Doggy Dogg''.
The album debuted at number one during the week of November 12, 1996 selling 478,971 copies, but it failed to match the commercial success of ''Doggystyle'' and 2Pac's album ''The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory'' (1996). 2Pac had become a friend of Snoop during 1996 and died weeks before the release of ''Tha Doggfather''. Dr. Dre had left Death Row to his partner Suge Knight, who was indicted on racketeering charges by the end of 1996. Consequently, Snoop's second album stalled at sales of two million. It was released only one week after another Death Row release, the first posthumous album by slain Makaveli, ''The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory'', which also debuted at number one. The illustration on the back cover of the CD is done by Joe Cool, the same artist who did the front cover of ''Doggystyle''.
==Release==
''Tha Doggfather'' charted at number one on both the US ''Billboard'' Hot 100 and US R&B Charts. The album has sold over two million copies in the United States and sold better internationally than its predecessor, "Doggystyle".
