It’s been nearly four years since the finale of Games Of Thrones. The HBO Max original series and its spin-off prequel House Of The Dragon were considered by many TV enthusiasts to be required viewing. In fact, Games Of Thrones‘ lead actress Emilia Clarke is often flooded with love from fans across social media to this day for her role as Daenerys Targaryen. However, after meeting with one super fan, lovers of the show are losing their minds.

Rap icon, entrepreneur, and GOT super fan Snoop Dogg and the actress finally met in person. As the two spoke, he opened by showering Clarke with praise. “You’re an amazing actress, beautiful spirit. You’re so believable,” Snoop said.

But he just couldn’t stop himself from adding, “I would protect your eggs any day,” showing his dedication to the show.

Overjoyed by the compliments and dedication, Clark shouted, “Yes!” She then asked, “Can I get that in writing?”

Hip-Hop Dances

Mad close to the Deegan, the records were spinning. Hip-Hop was only a few seconds old. They weren’t quite rapping yet, but they were “EQin’’ it. However, since every time the beat drops … the party is still poppin’, and every party for the last five decades has introduced new dance styles and moves. If […]

Snoop Dogg Cripwalks To Bagpipes In Scotland

by

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 Gets Down With Some Bagpipes

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.

Sending a 21 gun soldier salute Rest In Peace one of Hip Hop’s favorite crooners

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 Welcomes The Return Of Death Row Catalog To DSPs

by

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.”

Snoop Dogg Confirms Death Row’s Return

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. 

Death Row Records’ Catalog Will Finally Return To Music Streaming Platforms Tonight

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.

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
