I’ve loved Snoop Dogg and his smooth voice since 1993’s “Doggystyle.” Mr. D-O-double G and Cypress Hill are the only rap outfits I can tolerate. The Dogg just seems like he’d be fun to hang with: He’s funny, seems like an honest-to-goodness pimp, and I think he’s absolutely adorable.

Take, for example, the video I saw last night for his “Sensual Seduction” on MTV2. I love the campy way it begins, with smoke and its ’70s-esque flair. (What can I say; I’m a sucker for camp).

But the best part, by far, is the fact that Snoop plays a keytar — and not enough damn people in this world respect the keytar.

Enjoy.
