Hip-hop supergroup Mount Westmore just released their debut album, Snoop Cube 40 $hort.

Mount Westmore, a hip-hop supergroup that consists of of West Coast rap legends Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube, E-40, and Too Short, have released their official debut album. And this one will actually be on DSPs. 

The album is simply called Snoop Cube 40 $hort,And it’s a follow up, of sorts, to Bad MFs which dropped exclusively on the blockchain-based platform Gala Music. Snoop Cube 40 $hort features 16 songs, including a number of tracks that were on Bad MFs (including singles “Big Subwoofer” and “Too Big.”)

The album is an old school West Coast banger, featuring production from veteran producers like Rick Rock, DecadeZ, Soopafly, Battlecat, Fredwreck, Droop E, Ant Banks, and more. (Dr. Dre doesn’t have a production credit but pops in to say what up in “Too Big,” which is produced by P-Lo.)

Even though each member has decades in hip-hop and have collaborated numerous times, the group just formed recently. Last year, the group spoke with The New York Times about banding together at the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic.

“One of the earliest conversations was, ‘If something you do is wack, I’m going to tell you,’” said Too Short of the collaborations made by the four rap veterans.

“We have all kinds of different songs,” added Ice Cube. “We’ve got a mixture of what you always love from us as individuals but also records that show our range. We can hang with the youngsters or take you back down memory lane.”
