Snoop Dogg busted some moves while a bagpipe player played for him when he landed in Glasgow, Scotland. He landed in the country for his European tour when he was given a proper Scottish welcome on the tarmac. They got somebody to play the bagpipes and do a rendition of “Still D.R.E.” in a kilt for the rapper. Snoop Dogg was all for it. After dancing to the song for a bit, gave the bagpipe player a thumbs-up before entering a van. Online reception to the song was just as positive as Snoop Dogg’s was.
According to Glasgow Live, the bagpiper, named Ross Ainsley, was only given a single day to prepare. He explained that he found “Still D.R.E.” to be a great pipe piece and called the experience “very cool”. Ainsley has been described as “one of the most fluid, naturally-gifted and exciting pipers of the 21st century.” He is originally from Bridge Of Earn in Perthshire. Earlier this week, he was in Grantown working on his next solo album. Next Friday, he will be in the village of Croy for the music event Croy Live.
Snoop Dogg was in Scotland for his European tour that was originally supposed to go down in 2020. Then Covid happened and he rescheduled it to 2022. However, he had to cancel the tour at the last minute for “unforeseen scheduling conflicts including family obligations and upcoming tv and film projects.” He had never explained what those unforeseen conflicts were. However, they were not too major since he was still able to do his American tour later that year. This current tour is to make up for the cancellation he had to do. Snoop Dogg is set to have a concert in Denmark tonight, before going to London’s O2 Arena on March 21, and Paris’s Accor arena on the 25th.
Snoop Dogg and Scotland have had a close relationship for years, ever since he became a fan of Glasgow’s Celtics soccer club. He has even admitted that Glasgow is one of his favorite cities in Europe. This love came in 2005 when he and his entourage were given free Celtic shirts by DJ Big Al. In exchange, Snoop recorded some lines for the DJ’s mixtape.

There were many who tried, but nobody put R&B into Hip Hop the way it was supposed to sound better than the late, great Nate Dogg of the legendary Dogg Pound. The Source Magazine would like to send him a posthumous shout in recognition of his contributions to the game.
Besides his obvious links to Snoop Dogg and the original Death Row Family, Nathaniel Hale, born on this date in Clarksdale, Mississippi in 1969, Nate appeared alongside several iconic artists in the game including 2Pac, 50 Cent, Eminem, Mary J. Blige and Jay-Z. The world lost a talented singer, actor and musician when Nate succumbed to multiple strokes on March 15, 2011. He was 41 years old.
Condolences go out to Warren G, Dr. Dre, Snoop and the entire 213 on the day an entire community lost a Hip Hop legend.
Snoop Dogg announced on social media that he has kept his promise to release the catalog of Death Row Records to streaming services. The albums include some of the classics made by artists, including 2Pac, Dr. Dre, and Snoop himself. Updated By: Kendall Parks (3/10/23 at 6:20 pm) The Return Of Death Row Records The […]
Snoop Dogg’s acquisition of Death Row Records has been filled with highs and lows since the beginning of 2022. Before he hit the stage for the Super Bowl, he announced that he became the new owner of the label. Part of his decision was to modernize the label and brand for the digital era. You’d assume that meant that would make it more easily accessible. However, he began to plot out its debut in the Metaverse. Unfortunately, those plans have been stagnant for a while, though it’s still a possibility in the future.
After Snoop Dogg acquired Death Row, fans noticed that the albums released under the label went missing DSPs. This was no coincidence as Snoop later explained that he was unhappy with how streaming services paid out artists. “First thing I did was snatch all the music off those platforms traditionally known to people, because those platforms don’t pay,” he said on Drink Champs. “And those platforms get millions of millions of streams, and nobody gets paid other than the record labels.”
The catalog of Death Row Records is officially back on streaming services this week. Snoop confirmed the news following an announcement that he partnered with ex-Apple Executive Larry Jackson’s new company gamma. The partnership comes as no surprise as gamma helped reintroduce the Death Row catalog to TikTok last month. However, their partnership with Snoop will undoubtedly expand beyond social media and streaming services as gamma describes itself as a “one-stop-shop media company that creates, distributes, and markets content, from music to podcasts to films, offering resources and guidance to artists who want to build their brands and expand beyond music,” per Billboard.
Now, fans can enjoy some of their favorite records from Death Row including Snoop’s Doggystyle (sans “Gz Up, Hoes Down” and other skits),Dr. Dre’s The Chronic, Tupac’s All Eyez On Me, and more. Additionally, the partnership with gamma will also include two future releases from Snoop Dogg (presumably Missionary with Dr. Dre and another project). Thankfully, Snoop delivered the series of iconic projects and soundtracks that will undoubtedly be perfect for 4/20 next month.
After being removed from all digital streaming platforms last year, Death Row Records has announced that its legendary collection of hip-hop albums will once again be available for streaming tonight (March 9). The news arrives via an announcement on the label’s social media handles.
We heard you. The time has come. Death Row Records catalog is back streaming everywhere tonight 9pm pst. pic.twitter.com/06FBF3eLTm
Among the classic Death Row albums are Snoop Dogg’s Doggystyle, Tupac’s All Eyez On Me, and Dr. Dre’s The Chronic, the latter of which recently made a reappearance on DSPs. Much of the earlier Death Row projects were removed from streaming last year, following Snoop Dogg’s acquisition of the label.
Last year, in an interview on the Drink Champs podcast, Snoop revealed that he removed the masters after entertainment distributor eOne allegedly tried to pull him into a shady deal.
“They had the label, and for a year and a half two years I was trying to get my masters. All I wanted was Doggystyle. I was originally trying to say, ‘eOne, how can we work a deal where I can get my masters?’ Then Hasbro bought eOne so I was dealing with Hasbro and eOne. I was talking to eOne they were giving me the runaround so I said ‘Why don’t you let me come work for y’all so I can get my masters? I can blow your sh*t up make it go you can give me the Death Row Catalogue and let me get my masters’.”
The Death Row line-up will arrive to streaming platforms at 9 p.m. PST
Snoop Dogg is best known for his raps about drinking and smoking, but he is quite a family man. Since the late 1990s, Snoop has been a well-known figure in the music industry. The rapper, who is 51 years old, has had a long and successful career with songs like “Who Am I,” ” The Next Episode,” and “Drop It’s Like It’s Hot.” The popular rapper has also been in a number of movies, TV shows, and documentaries. But being a father is one of his most important achievements.
Eventually, he has three children with his wife, Shante Taylor, but he also has a son with his mistress! Snoop Dogg does not have a close relationship with the child, but he is a committed father to his other three primary children.
In this article, we’ll tell you what’s new with Snoop Dogg’s children and everything else we know about them.
Cordé Broadus was born in 1994. He is the oldest son of Shante Broadus (who used to be known as Taylor) and Snoop Dogg. As kids, Cordé and his brother Cordell were in the music video for “Drop It Like It’s Hot” by Pharrell Williams and their father in 2004. Cordé has pursued a music career over the years. He used to go by the name Spanky Danky when he was on stage.
In terms of his personal life, he has a son named Zion from a previous relationship. His long-term partner, Soraya Love, gave him a daughter named Elleven and a son named Sky. It has also been reported that the couple had a baby boy named Kai in 2019. However, after 10 days in a neonatal intensive care unit, the baby died. Cordé wrote on Instagram, “Kai, my son, brought so much love and happiness into this world. His spirit will live on, and we will think fondly of these ten days of love.”
Snoop’s eldest son, under the name Kalvin Love, continues to perform music and share glimpses of his family life on Instagram.
Cordell Broadus is the second son of Snoop Dogg and his wife. He was born in 1997. When he was younger, Cordell was a good athlete. He went to UCLA and played football. Nevertheless, instead of pursuing a career as a wide receiver, he went to the School of Theater, Cinema, and Television. Cordell loves fashion, directing, and running his own business. Vogue says that he has modeled for Ralph Lauren and Vanity Fair and was the creative director for the sportswear company Joyrich.
“I’m open to meeting new people and learning about other businesses, so it’s all exciting to me,” he told Vogue. “I try to get out of my comfort zone and do things I wouldn’t normally do.”
Currently, he is the creative director for “Doge Dash,” a crypto gaming platform. This move has also given Snoop Dogg new opportunities. Along with LeBron James Jr. and Lil Yachty, Snoop joined FaZe Clan’s talent network in March 2021. The rapper was also put on the board of directors of the gaming giant because of his son.“He’s [Cordell] incredibly tuned into gaming, Web3, culture, and so on, and felt this would be something I’d be into,” Snoop told The Hollywood Reporter. Cordell saw a “natural link” between the project and his father’s love of video games. “The way the two brands could work together inspired me, so I brought them together,” he said.
Cori Broadus is the youngest of her siblings. She was born in 1999 and is the only daughter of Snoop Dogg. According to Hollywood Life, Cori’s music career began when she was a young teen. She and her mother sang backup vocals on Snoop Dogg’s 2012 album “Reincarnated.” Cori B. had hits with songs like “Sittin’ in My Room” and “Daddy’s Daughter,” which even had her father on it.
Later on, it was noted that her single “Love Me For Me,” which came out in 2018 under the name Choc, showed that her music had become more mature. Nonetheless, at age six, Cori was told she had lupus, which would hurt her both physically and mentally as she got older. Her mother says that Cori was a big reason why she started her scarf business, “Broadus Collection.” Shante Broadus told W Magazine in 2021, “When Cori’s hair started to fall out, I would put a scarf on her. We all wore scarves with her to make her feel less alone.”
In 2021, Cori spoke out on Instagram about her problems with mental health. She said that her boyfriend Wayne and her family’s support give her “a reason to live” during a dark episode that put her in the hospital. She then said, “I have always been sad. I’ve always been down. “I’ve been through a lot.” “She talks about being bullied, how she feels about her body, and being diagnosed with lupus.
On a brighter side in March 2022, Snoop was happy for Cori because she was running the first Black-owned hair salon in Santa Monica.
In the late 1990s, Snoop was dating Laurie Holmond, and in 1998, their only child, Julian Broadus, was born. Laurie and Snoop’s relationship got worse over time, which ended Snoop and Julian’s growing relationship. Snoop, on the other hand, said he didn’t know about his son until he was 9 and Holmond sued for child support. After a paternity test, Snoop agreed to pay child support.
He hasn’t been shy about the fact that he grew up without his megastar father’s attention. In many interviews over the years, he has talked about how he pretty much had to make a name for himself on his own. When the hip-hop singer, his wife, and their three children starred in “Snoop Dogg’s Father Hood”, Julian told reporters he felt left out. “I’d like to be on the show so I can learn more about my family. It would be great if we could just hang out with each other. I think we can get there one day,” he told Star Magazine.
Unfortunately, even though Julian loves basketball, he didn’t play it professionally. But he has been working in real estate with Agents of LA, matching high-end properties with celebrities who want to buy them. In 2020, he told The Blast, “I am ready to make a name for myself and make money.” According to Instagram, Julian has several interests, including business, where he communicates with companies associated with the metaverse. He also made his acting debut in July 2021 in “Charge It to the Game.”
What about bonding with his father’s family? In November 2021, he posted a picture of himself with Snoop’s dad and Cordé, so it looks like everything is fine. Snoop also went to Julian’s work event, which showed how close they are.
Cordell Broadus has joined Snoop Dogg’s family of grandchildren, joining Zion, Elleven, Sky, and the late Kai Broadus. Cordell has a kid from a prior relationship with Marissa Hopkins, Champion, called Church Jr. by BCK.
In 2015, when his first grandson was born, Snoop Dogg told TODAY, “I’m going to be a naive grandpa who thinks he can get away with anything.” “It’s a little bit of happiness to look into his eyes and hug him.” On Instagram, he sometimes posts photos of himself with his kids. For instance, when he is coloring with his granddaughter or just hanging out with his youngest.
Even though Snoop and his kids’ lives haven’t always been easy, what’s important is that they continue to grow and help each other.
Snoop Dogg is maybe Instagram’s foremost user. He has posted to his feed 13 times in the last 24 hours, so Monday’s (March 6) announcement that Snoop and Wiz Khalifa are co-headlining The High School Reunion Tourthis summer already feels like old news.
But we can’t skip over a different post from Monday.
Adam Krueger is CW39 Houston’s Chief Meteorologist and often takes requests from his TikTok followers on which song lyrics he should try to sneak into his on-air forecasts. He was asked to incorporate a Snoop Dogg song, any song, and chose “Who Am I (What’s My Name)?” from Snoop’s 1993 debut, Doggystyle.
Krueger seamlessly squeezed in lyrics “From the depths of the sea, back to the block” and “follow me, follow me, follow me, follow me” — the latter was done by promoting his social media handles — before his FutureCast allowed him an opportunity to say, “Pretty soon, we’ll step through the fog, and we’ll creep through the smog, and we’ll be able to see a little bit of sun popping out this afternoon.”
“Then I step through the dog and I creep through the smog / ‘Cause I’m Snoop Doggy” is the actual line, but we’ll allow it. And to cap it off, Krueger outlined a potential cold front with, “It’s like that and as a matter of fact (Rat-tat-tat-tat).”
Snoop Dogg approved Krueger’s performance by reposting it to his Instagram with the caption, “Weather man on one .”
Snoop Dogg just struck a deal with former Apple executive Larry Jackson to release two new solo albums and distribute Death Row’s iconic catalog. Moreover, Jackson was Apple Music’s Global Creative Director, who’s gotten mentions from Kanye West, Drake, and many more. Recently, he started a new music company called gamma and partnered with a few other big names. In fact, gamma was behind the catalog’s availability on TikTok, following some removals from streaming services after years of shoddy artist payouts. Furthermore, Death Row’s discography contains classics like Snoop’s own Doggystyle, Dr. Dre’s The Chronic, and Tupac’s AllEyez On Me.
To elaborate, gamma also has backing from A24, Todd Boehly’s Eldridge, and Apple themselves. Also, they reportedly have $1 billion in capital. Billboard described the company as “a one-stop-shop media company that creates, distributes, and markets content, from music to podcasts to films, offering resources and guidance to artists who want to build their brands and expand beyond music.” After the Long Beach MC’s ownership of Death Row, this is certainly an unclear but exciting step nonetheless. In addition, Billboard reported that the longtime partnership will revert rights back to the rapper after they “work together to enrich the value of the IP.”
Snoop Dogg’s New Deal: New Albums, Death Row Distribution, And More
Other artists that jumped onto Jackson’s new venture include Usher and Rick Ross. Furthermore, gamma aims to rival TikTok as a hub for music discovery and to create generational wealth and uplift culture for Black artists, making sure they can retain rights to their work. “It made sense for two Black men to come together to change the face of the industry,” Snoop expressed to Bloomberg concerning the team-up. “I didn’t want to partner with a regular company because they respect me and fear me so much, they wouldn’t wanna give me ideas.”
Perhaps one of these new Snoop albums will be Missionary, his previously announced collab with Dr. Dre. However, more exciting and potentially earth-shaking news surrounded the launch of gamma. Reportedly, Larry Jackson also reached out to Frank Ocean about his new company, according to Bloomberg. However, he didn’t say they were working on a specific project, so it’s just another dash of hope for one of the industry’s most elusive yet sought-after voices. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Snoop Dogg and this new deal.
