| Andy Capper's risible documentary records in an incoherent fashion the spiritual journey (or ego trip) taken by rapper Snoop Dogg to Jamaica after first bringing peace to America's warring rap world on behalf his friend Louis Farrakhan, leader of the Nation of Islam. Accompanied by a motley crew, Snoop's aim was to get in touch with his inner Rastafarian, to exchange rap for reggae, and make an album in Kingston. He seems to have spent much of his time on the weed and wreathed in holy smoke, and the result is comic, pretentious and tedious. The encounter with Bunny Wailer, the reggae performer who was with Bob Marley from the beginning, is unintentionally hilarious, and all I can say is honi soit qui Marley pense. | Andy Capper's risible documentary records in an incoherent fashion the spiritual journey (or ego trip) taken by rapper Snoop Dogg to Jamaica after first bringing peace to America's warring rap world on behalf his friend Louis Farrakhan, leader of the Nation of Islam.
